(the "Company"), together with its subsidiaries, is a multi-jurisdictional gaming company with gaming management and development interests with Native American Tribes in several states. The management and development of Native American gaming facilities is conducted through Capital Gaming Management, Inc. ("CGMI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The development of the Narragansett project is conducted through Capital Development Gaming Corp. ("CDGC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. CGMI currently manages and operates three Native American gaming facilities, which CGMI has developed or expanded into Class III gaming (as herein defined) facilities: Muckleshoot Tribe - Auburn, Washington (Class III facility became operational in April 1995) Tonto Apache Tribe - Payson, Arizona (Class III facility became operational in April 1995) Umatilla Tribes - Pendleton, Oregon (Class III facility became operational in March 1995) CDGC has a management and development contract with the Narragansett Tribe for the development of a Class III gaming facility in Charlestown, Rhode Island. See "Native American Gaming Operations". Gaming has evolved into a national industry. At least 33 states sponsor lotteries. Bingo games operated by charities are legal in at least 46 states. In addition to the primary markets in Nevada and New Jersey, gaming activities have expanded to include riverboat and dockside gaming, state-sponsored video lotteries, limited stakes casino gaming and Native American gaming. Other forms of gaming conducted in certain areas of the United States include slot machine gaming, or variations thereof, in restaurants, bars, hotels and truck stops; pari-mutuel betting on horse racing, dog racing and jai-alai; sports book making and card rooms. The Company is actively seeking new opportunities in Native American gaming and secondary gaming market jurisdictions. Company's Strategy The Company is focusing its efforts on maintaining its existing gaming management interests with Native American Tribes, pursuing a strategy to develop CGMI's and CDGC's Native American gaming operations and seeking other gaming opportunities in existing and emerging gaming jurisdictions. The Company believes that it has significant opportunities in Native American gaming because of its demonstrated and continued success at the facilities it currently manages through its subsidiaries, its approval and/or licensing by the National Indian Gaming Commission (the "NIGC") and various state and tribal gaming jurisdictions and its excellent reputation in this industry segment. The Company continues to focus on management, consulting and development opportunities in Native American gaming jurisdictions where the Company is already licensed as well as new jurisdictions. The Company is also focusing on secondary gaming market opportunities in various jurisdictions where opportunities exist parallel to the size and scope that the Company has successfully developed and manages in the Native American gaming segment of the gaming industry. Management believes its experience in and early entry into the Native American gaming segment of the gaming industry and receipt of certain approvals from the NIGC and other state and tribal regulatory authorities will provide it with a competitive advantage over companies just entering Native American gaming development and management. Company History The Company was originally organized in June 1990 and was involved in an unrelated business prior to its entry into the Native American gaming segment in 1993. From March 31, 1992 through January 20, 1993, the Company 1 entered into a series of transactions with Great American Recreation, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively, "GAR") pursuant to which the Company sold its assets in this unrelated business segment to GAR. Management believes that the foregoing transactions have resulted in the satisfaction of substantially all of the liabilities associated with these prior unrelated business activities conducted by the Company. With the January 1993 hiring of Edward M. Tracy, the Company's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and subsequent additions of other experienced casino industry executives, the Company embarked on its new strategy of pursuing opportunities in emerging segments of the gaming industry. Native American Gaming Operations Background on Native American Gaming Native American casino gaming has been a rapidly growing part of the casino gaming industry. A 1987 United States Supreme Court decision opened the way for full-scale Native American casinos. The Supreme Court held that if a state has legalized any form of gaming, even in a restricted form, Native American Tribes have the right to offer the same gaming on Native American land, free of state restrictions. In 1988, in response to this decision and to promote Tribal economic development and self-sufficiency, Congress passed the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act ("IGRA" or the "Act"). The Act provides the framework for federal, state and Tribal control over Native American gaming. Native American Tribes must negotiate compacts with their host states before certain types of gaming are allowed. If the state does not negotiate a compact in "good faith" with the Tribe, the Act provides that the Tribe may sue the state in federal court to force the state to negotiate. If the state continues to resist negotiations, the Act provides that a court-appointed mediator will impose upon the parties either the compact proposed by the state or the compact proposed by the Tribe. Several states have resisted entering into Tribal/State Compacts. In Seminole Tribe of Florida v. Florida, the United States Supreme Court held that a state may assert an 11th Amendment immunity defense where a Tribe has commenced an action to enforce the state's obligation to negotiate in good faith. Thus, the federal courts are incapable of providing the relief contemplated by IGRA. In response to Seminole, the Secretary of the United States Department of Interior (the "Secretary of the Interior") has requested comments as to how the Secretary of the Interior should implement his authority to promulgate Secretarial procedures which would govern gaming where a state has asserted the 11th Amendment immunity from suit. If the Secretary of the Interior decides to adopt such procedures, and if such procedures withstood legal challenge, the procedures would substitute for the Tribal/State Compact. The Act divides the types of games which may be played into two principal classes, Class II gaming and Class III gaming. "Class II gaming" generally consist of bingo, pull-tabs, lotto and, in some circumstances, poker. "Class III gaming" generally consists of all other forms of commercial gaming, including table games such as blackjack, craps and roulette, slot machines and video gaming (including video blackjack and poker), sports betting and pari-mutuel gaming. The forms of gaming allowed in any class vary from state to state depending upon the terms of each Tribal/State Compact. Class II gaming is permitted on Native American land if (a) the state in which the Native American land is located permits such gaming for any purpose by any person; (b) the gaming is not otherwise specifically prohibited on Native American Land by federal law; (c) the gaming is conducted in accordance with an approved Tribal ordinance; and (d) other miscellaneous requirements are met. Class III gaming is permitted on Native American land if the conditions applicable to Class II gaming are met and, in addition, the gaming is in compliance with the terms of the compact between the Tribal government and the applicable state government. All compacts between Tribes and states must be approved by the Secretary of the Interior. Operations of the Company's Subsidiaries CGMI was incorporated on October 24, 1978, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bass Leisure Group, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bass, PLC. CGMI operated in the Class II gaming market, primarily providing management for high stakes bingo facilities of certain Native American tribes. On November 19, 1993, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding 2 shares of voting common stock of CGMI for a total purchase price of $2.6 million. At the time of CGMI's acquisition by the Company, CGMI was managing Class II gaming facilities for the Oneida, Muckleshoot and Cow Creek Tribes. Also, CGMI had executed a management contract with the Narragansett Tribe which was and remains in the developmental stage. CGMI was also involved in preliminary negotiations with regard to the execution of a Class III gaming management contract with the Muckleshoot Tribe. As contemplated by various agreements of the Company, CGMI's management and development rights and obligations with the Narragansett Tribe were subsequently transferred to CDGC. In August 1994, CGMI's management contract with the Umatilla Tribe was approved by the NIGC. The approval followed an extensive background investigation as required by applicable NIGC regulations into the Company's past and current business activities and practices as well as the Company's key employees. This approval was significant because the background investigations, as well as certain environmental approvals, require the most time in the entire NIGC management contract approval process. The management contracts between CGMI and the Tonto Apache Tribe and the Muckleshoot Tribe were approved by the NIGC in January 1995 and April 1995, respectively. The Company and its subsidiaries invested approximately $27 million towards the expansion of existing facilities and for the development of new Class III gaming facilities for which it has signed contracts exclusive of the proposed Narragansett project. Of this amount, $3.3 million represents equipment financing obtained on behalf of the Tribes. The expenditures have included construction/expansion costs, equipment purchases, pre-opening expenses and general working capital. The funds were invested in the form of capital loans from CGMI to the Tribes and will be required to be repaid with interest and principal, generally over the life of the management contracts. In September 1995, the Cow Creek Tribe prepaid approximately $824,000 and the Muckleshoot Tribe prepaid approximately $7.6 million of loans made by CGMI to these Tribes relating to the construction of their respective facilities. As of June 30, 1997, the Company was owed approximately $7,631,000 on account of remaining tribal loans. The Company intends to maintain a focused strategy to develop CGMI's and CDGC's Native American gaming operations and attempt to capitalize on its presence in Native American gaming and general casino experience to seek additional management contracts. CGMI's and CDGC's principal existing and development projects are described below. Capital Gaming Management, Inc. Muckleshoot Contract (Muckleshoot Casino - Auburn, Washington). CGMI currently operates the 65,000 square foot Muckleshoot Casino which offers Class III table games (such as blackjack, roulette, craps, baccarat, Pai Gow, Caribbean Stud and Big Six), off-track betting ("OTB"), pulltabs and keno, in addition to non-gaming amenities including fine dining and a gift shop. The Muckleshoot Casino commenced operations on April 28, 1995. The Muckleshoot Casino is located approximately 20 miles south of Seattle and 15 miles north of Tacoma. The casino targets local residents from the Seattle-Tacoma area. CGMI also managed a Class II high-stakes bingo facility for the Muckleshoot Tribe until the expiration of the contract in September 1996. On April 10, 1993, CGMI signed a management contract ("Operating Agreement") with the Muckleshoot Tribe to construct, manage and operate a Class III gaming facility offering Las Vegas-style games including blackjack, roulette, craps, poker, OTB and keno. Certain games have state-mandated maximum per hand betting limits of $500. As amended in April 1995, the Operating Agreement is for a term of five years. Pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement between the Muckleshoot Tribe and CGMI, the Muckleshoot Tribe has prepaid to CGMI approximately $7.6 million that was advanced for developing, constructing and equipping the gaming facility. Additionally, under the terms of the Operating Agreement, the annual management fee of 11.5% of gross gaming revenues has been reduced to 3.9% of gross gaming revenues simultaneously with the repayment of the loan by the Muckleshoot Tribe in September 1995. This 66% reduction in the management fee was effective September 1995 and has significantly impacted and will continue to impact the future management fees earned from the Operating Agreement. 3 The Operating Agreement between CGMI and the Muckleshoot Tribe was approved by the NIGC in April 1995. In addition, the Company has received a gaming license from the State of Washington permitting the Company to act as a manager/financier of Native American gaming operations in the State of Washington. The Company also has a temporary certification by the Muckleshoot Tribe. Tonto Apache Contract (Mazatzal Casino - Payson, Arizona). CGMI currently manages the 35,000 square foot Mazatzal Casino for the Tonto Apache Tribe which offers slot machines, keno, poker, pull tabs and high stakes bingo in addition to non-gaming amenities including a restaurant, sports bar and gift shop. The Mazatzal Casino commenced operations on April 27, 1995. The Mazatzal Casino targets both the local Payson residents and other persons living 75 miles to the south in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area. The Mazatzal Casino is located just south of Payson on Highway 87. In addition to the Payson area residents, the Mazatzal Casino attracts people from the Phoenix area on day trips and weekend vacations, particularly because of the more desirable climate in Payson during the summer months. On June 29, 1993, CGMI signed a five year management contract with the Tonto Apache Tribe (the "Tonto Apache Management Contract"), to construct and operate a Class III gaming facility which would offer slot machines, keno, high stakes bingo, non-banking table games and OTB. The five-year term commenced on the date the facility opened in April 1995. The Tonto Apache Management Contract may be extended for two years at the option of the Tonto Apache Tribe and upon application to the NIGC. The Tonto Apache Management Contract provides for CGMI to receive a management fee of 30% of Net Distributable Profits (as defined therein). The Tonto Apache Management Contract between CGMI and the Tonto Apache Tribe was approved by the NIGC on January 30, 1995. In addition, in February 1995, the Company received temporary management certification from the Arizona State Gaming Agency. The Company has a temporary certification by the Tonto Apache Tribe. Umatilla Contract (Wildhorse Gaming Resort - Pendleton, Oregon). CGMI currently manages the Wildhorse Gaming Resort for the Umatilla Tribes which offers video-lottery terminals, black jack, poker, OTB, keno and high stakes bingo in addition to non-gaming amenities including a restaurant and gift shop. The Wildhorse Gaming Resort commenced operations on March 10, 1995. The Wildhorse Gaming Resort targets local residents of the Tri-Cities area of southern Washington (Richland, Kennewick and Pasco). The Wildhorse Gaming Resort site is accessible to residents within a 100 mile radius that also includes Pendleton and Walla Walla. The Wildhorse Gaming Resort is located approximately 200 miles east of Portland, Oregon, and targets business travelers and tourists by attracting potential customers traveling along Interstate 84, the main east-west freeway in northern Oregon and the location of the historic Oregon trail. CGMI signed a five year contract on November 9, 1993, with the Umatilla Tribe (the "Umatilla Management Contract"), to construct, manage and operate a Class II and Class III gaming facility. The five-year term commenced on the date the facility opened in March 1995. The Umatilla Management Contract provides for a management fee of 30% of net distributable profits after debt service (as defined therein). The Umatilla Management Contract may be extended for two years if certain contingencies are met. The Umatilla Management Contract between CGMI and the Umatilla Tribe was approved by the NIGC on August 17, 1995, and the State of Oregon has approved the Company as being suitable to manage/finance Native American gaming operations in the State of Oregon. Capital Development Gaming Corp. Narragansett Contract - Native American Casino (Rhode Island). CDGC has entered into a seven-year management and development contract with the Narragansett Tribe (as amended, the "Narragansett Contract"). The Narragansett Contract provides for CDGC to receive an annual management fee of 30% of net 4 distributable profits (as defined therein) of the facility for the first five years and 20% for the remaining two years. As part of the Narragansett Contract, the Company is required to advance a construction loan to be repaid over a seven-year period. The Narragansett Contract was submitted to the NIGC for approval in June 1995. In light of certain federal legislation as well as pending litigation, no assurance can be given if, or when, such approval will be obtained or if the Narragansett Tribe will be able to establish a commercial gaming enterprise (Class II or Class III) under IGRA. Additionally, it is possible, as a condition of obtaining such approval, that the NIGC will require material modifications to the Narragansett Contract which could materialy adversely impact the value of such Contract. In August 1994, a Tribal-State Compact was entered into between the Narragansett Tribe and Governor Bruce Sundlun of Rhode Island. In October and November 1994, two lawsuits were filed (including one by Rhode Island Attorney General Pine referred to herein as the "Pine Case") seeking to void the Tribal/State Compact on the grounds that the Governor of Rhode Island lacked the authority to bind the State of Rhode Island absent State legislative approval. In 1995, Rhode Island's new governor, Governor Almond, joined in the Pine Case. In February 1996, the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island held that the Tribal/State Compact was void for lack of State legislative approval. The State of Rhode Island has subsequently refused to negotiate with the Narragansett Tribe. The Secretary of the Interior has requested comments as to whether the Secretary of the Interior can enact Secretarial procedures to permit gaming under IGRA for the Tribes in states (such as Rhode Island) that refuse to negotiate Tribal/State Compacts in good faith. If the Secretary of the Interior concludes that he has such authority, the Company believes that the Secretary of the Interior may adopt such procedures resulting in the Secretary of the Interior adopting procedures applicable to gaming by the Narragansett Tribe. Unless the Chafee Rider (as defined below) is overturned, however, there can be no assurance that the Secretary of the Interior will have the authority to impose a compact on the State of Rhode Island. In addition, in September 1996, federal legislation was passed as a non-relevant rider (introduced by U.S. Senator John Chafee of Rhode Island, the "Chafee Rider") to the must-pass Omnibus Appropriations Bill which has the effect of singling out the Narragansett Tribe's reservation (where the gaming facility is currently planned to be built) for exclusion from the benefits of IGRA. The Chafee Rider, which the Company believes discriminates against the Narragansett Tribe by treating it differently from every other Indian Tribe in the United States, was passed without hearings or debate, with no consultation with the Narragansett Tribe and over the objections of the ranking members of the Senate Indian Affairs Committee. Unless the Chafee Rider is overturned, the Narragansett Tribe will be precluded from establishing a Class II or Class III gaming facility under IGRA. Under Rhode Island state law, therefore, the Narragansett Tribe's only recourse to establish a gaming facility absent a repeal of the Chafee Rider would be to submit the issue to a statewide and, possibly, local referendum. There can be no assurance, however, that any such referendum would be successful or, if successful, what the ultimate scope of permitted gaming would be. In August 1996, the NIGC submitted comments on the Narragansett Contract. In light of the decision by the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island invalidating the Tribal/State Compact, the NIGC had informed the Company and the Narragansett Tribe that they would only consider a contract relating solely to Class II gaming. In light of this, the Company bifurcated the Narragansett Contract and submitted it (the "Management Agreement") on June 21, 1996 for review and approval by the NIGC of only the portions relating to Class II gaming. The Company reclassified the Class III contract as a development contract until such time as a Tribal/state compact for Class III gaming was signed. As a result of the Chafee Rider, however, on December 16, 1996, the NIGC declined further review of the Management Agreement between the Narragansett Tribe and CDGC. In declining to approve the Management Agreement, the NIGC cited enactment of the Chafee Rider that removed the Narragansett Tribe's settlement lands from the application of the IGRA. The Chairman of the NIGC declined review of the Management Agreement asserting that the Naragansett Tribe had lost its rights to conduct Class II and Class III gaming as a result of the application of the Chafee Rider. An appeal from this decision was filed with the NIGC on December 20, 1996, and on June 17, 1997, the NIGC issued a final decision upholding the Chairman's decision. 5 On February 19, 1997, the Narragansett Tribe initiated litigation in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, naming the NIGC and its Chairman as defendants. In this action, the Narragansett Tribe sought a declaration of such Court to the effect that, among other things, the Chafee Rider is unconstitutional under the equal protection component of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and an injunction requiring the defendants to complete the Management Agreement between the Narragansett Tribe and CDGC. Both the Narragansett Tribe and the NIGC filed cross-motions for summary judgment in the matter. A hearing was held on this action on June 7, 1997 and on August 18, 1997, the District Court for the District of Columbia granted the NIGC's motion for summary judgment. Management believes that the Narragansett Tribe will appeal this decision. Congressional review of the Chafee Rider was initiated on May 1, 1997, with a hearing before the Committee on Resources of the U.S. House of Representatives. The hearing included testimony from the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Narragansett Tribe and the National Council of American Indians, all of whom testified in support of repeal of the Chafee Rider, as well as several political leaders from the State of Rhode Island, who support the Chafee Rider. Following this hearing, on June 19, 1997, legislation that would amend and effectively repeal the Chafee Rider ("H.R. 1983") was introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy (D-RI), a member of the Committee on Resources. Joining Rep. Kennedy as original co-sponsors of H.R. 1983 were Rep. Don Young (R-AK), the Chairman of the Committee on Resources, and Rep. Dale E. Kildee (D-MI), a member of the Committee on Resources, and Co-Chairman of the Congressional Native American Caucus. H.R. 1983 has been referred to and is pending before the Committee on Resources. In spite of the set-back caused by the Chafee Rider, CDGC intends to pursue the Narragansett development project. There can be no assurance, however, that any legislative or judicial efforts to overturn the Chafee Rider will be successful. The Company has continued funding the on-going development costs of the Narragansett development project, which at June 30, 1997, has amounted to approximately $8.7 million consisting primarily of legal costs, environmental engineering and assessment and design costs, approximately $2,331,000 which was expensed in Fiscal 1997. Additionally at June 30, 1997 approximately $7.4 million in development costs is expected to be recoverable if and when a gaming facility is established by the Narragansett Tribe. The Narragansett casino gaming facility will not be located on the Charlestown site unless the Chafee Rider is rendered ineffective. Although there can be no assurance, assuming the negotiation of an appropriate compact with the State of Rhode Island, management believes that the Class III gaming facility could contain up to 120,000 square feet of gaming space and offer up to 3,000 slot machines and 150 table games. The gaming facility is expected to target the local middle-income market and to attract local Rhode Island residents from the surrounding areas. However, due to Rhode Island's small geographical size, CDGC expects to also draw customers from the neighboring states of Connecticut and Massachusetts. New England is already home to several full scale casinos, including the Foxwoods Casino operated by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe and the Mohegan Sun Casino operated by the Mohegan Tribe which opened in October 1996. Both these casinos are in Connecticut. It is possible that other casinos will be established in other parts of New England, including Massachusetts. Because of the market size, the establishment of existing and such other casinos could have an adverse impact on the Narragansett casino's gross revenues and, in turn, on the income generated by CDGC under the Narragansett Contract. In order to fund the construction costs for the project, it is anticipated that the Company would require significant additional capital. The inability of the Narragansett casino to offer a full scope of gaming could create a competitive disadvantage. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available, or if available, that the terms thereof will be acceptable to the Company. 6 Other Projects of the Company Jena Band of Choctaws Contract . When the Company completed the acquisition of CGMI, there was an existing management contract relating to the development of a Class III gaming facility with the Jena Band of Choctaws Tribe in Louisiana (the "Jena Contract"). The Jena Contract has not been approved by the NIGC. Subsequent to the execution of the Jena Contract, the Jena Band of Choctaws became a federally-recognized tribe. This effort was funded by the Company. The Jena Tribe has advised the Company that it does not believe it is bound by the existing agreement, and the Jena Tribe has had discussions with other management companies. The Company intends to enforce its rights under the Jena Contract against any third parties which interfere with this relationship. Native American Gaming Competition The Native American gaming industry has experienced significant growth in the past few years and competition by management companies for favorable Class II and Class III contracts has increased significantly. In contrast to the early stages of Native American gaming, well-established companies in the primary gaming market now compete for a limited number of Tribal management contracts as opposed to significantly smaller operations which competed for such contracts a few years ago. As a result of such competition, new contracts may become less lucrative to management companies such as the Company as the Tribes have more management companies to choose from. Additionally, many of the Company's competitors have substantially more gaming experience, are larger and have greater financial resources to fund the development of new Tribal gaming operations and attract new management contracts to the Company. Additionally, Native American casinos experience intense competition from other Native American casinos, state sponsored lotteries and gaming, charitable gaming, as well as gaming in primary markets (Nevada and New Jersey) and secondary markets (including riverboat, dockside, card rooms, bars and truck stop operations). There can be no assurance that such competitive factors will not negatively impact existing or future casinos which the Company manages. Reorganization Reorganization of Crescent City Capital Development Corp. and Sale of Discontinued Operation Crescent City Capital Development Corp. ("CCCD"), a former wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, held a 50% interest in a riverboat joint venture gaming facility in New Orleans, Louisiana (the "River City Joint Venture"). Due primarily to unforeseen failure of projected market conditions which have been widely reported to have severely and negatively impacted the entire New Orleans riverboat and land-based gaming industry, and to stem operating losses, the Company terminated CCCD's operations in June 1995 and the River City Joint Venture was terminated in July 1995. On July 28, 1995, CCCD consented to the entry of an order for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the "CCCD Reorganization Case") and sought a purchaser for this discontinued operation. CCCD filed a plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") on October 13, 1995. On January 12, 1996, CCCD's plan of reorganization was confirmed (the "January CCCD Plan of Reorganization"). The January CCCD Plan of Reorganization was predicated upon an agreement (the "MRI Agreement") with Mirage Resorts, Inc. ("Mirage") for the sale of CCCD to Mirage for $55 million plus the assumption of certain equipment financing liabilities of up to $6.5 million. The sale to Mirage was contingent upon certain waivers and conditions being achieved on or before January 24, 1995, including, but not limited to, receiving all requisite regulatory approvals to transfer the operator's license. On January 24, 1996, Mirage announced that conditions to the closing of the purchase were not satisfied by the contractual deadline and terminated the MRI Agreement. Although the Louisiana State Police determined on January 23, 1996 that Mirage was suitable to hold an operator's license, the Louisiana Riverboat Gaming Commission deferred action on the matter indicating that it needed more time to rule on the proposed change of berth and transfer of the license from Orleans Parish, Louisiana to Bossier Parish, Louisiana. As a consequence of the termination of the MRI Agreement, management believed that it was in the best interests of the Company, its senior secured noteholders and its shareholders, to immediately pursue other alternatives for the sale of CCCD's assets. 7 On February 21, 1996, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the "CMC Agreement") with Casino Magic Corp. ("CMC"), two of CMC's wholly-owned subsidiaries, and CCCD to transfer the ownership of CCCD and substantially all of its assets to a wholly-owned subsidiary of CMC. An Amended Plan of Reorganization (the "Amended CCCD Plan of Reorganization") predicated upon consummation of the CMC Agreement was confirmed by the bankruptcy court overseeing the CCCD Reorganization Case and an order of confirmation was entered on April 29, 1996. On May 13, 1996, the Company completed the sale of CCCD to a wholly-owned subsidiary of CMC for an aggregate purchase price of $56.5 million, consisting of $15 million cash, $35 million in Purchaser's Notes and the assumption of up to $6.5 million in certain equipment liabilities. The cash and Purchaser's Notes paid by CMC's wholly-owned subsidiary as the purchase price for CCCD were distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Amended CCCD Plan of Reorganization. In connection therewith, $7 million in cash and $28 million in Purchaser's Notes were distributed to the indenture trustee on account of the Company's 11.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2001 (the "Old Senior Secured Notes"). The Amended CCCD Plan of Reorganization also provided for the distribution to CCCD's unsecured creditors of the proceeds of all of CCCD's remaining assets not sold to CMC. On July 29, 1996, the indenture trustee for the Old Senior Secured Notes distributed $49,986,000 in cash and Purchaser's Notes to the holders of the Old Senior Secured Notes on account of principal and accrued interest (the "Noteholder Distribution"). The Noteholder Distribution included $28 million in Purchaser's Notes, as well as cash from the sale of CCCD to CMC, proceeds from the early payment of a Tribal development loan, proceeds from the buyout of a management contract, $3.2 million in unused restricted cash and other sources. Subsequently, in August 1996, the Purchaser's Notes was redeemed by CMC at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest. Reorganization of the Company As a result of the CCCD Reorganization Case, on June 13, 1995, First Trust National Association, the indenture trustee with respect to the Old Senior Secured Notes (the "Trustee"), notified the Company of the occurrence of certain events of default ("Events of Default") under the Indenture with respect to the Old Senior Secured Notes (the "Old Indenture"). The Old Senior Secured Notes were guaranteed by CGMI and CCCD. The Event of Default cited by the Trustee related to the assertion of various claims of creditors against Collateral (as defined in the Old Indenture), which was pledged to secure repayment of the Old Senior Secured Notes. In addition, on June 13, 1995, the Trustee also notified First National Bank of Commerce ("FNBC"), the Company's Collateral Agent, that FNBC could not make further disbursements from cash collateral accounts established pursuant to the Old Indenture until directed by the Trustee. Additionally, the Company failed to make interest payments on its Old Senior Secured Notes of $7,302,500 each on August 1, 1995, February 1, 1996 and August 1, 1996, and a $1,350,000 consent fee payment which was due to the holders of the Old Senior Secured Notes on August 1, 1995, which also constituted Events of Default under the Old Indenture. In order to restructure the Old Senior Secured Notes, pursuant to negotiations with a steering committee ("Noteholders Steering Committee") representing more than two-thirds of the holders of the Old Senior Secured Notes, the Company filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (the "Bankruptcy Court") on December 23, 1996 (the "Petition Date"). The petition did not involve the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company operated as a debtor-in-possession until March 19, 1997 when its Plan of Reorganization (as defined below) was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court. As a debtor-in-possession, the Company was authorized to operate its business but could not engage in transactions outside its ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Subject to certain exceptions under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company's reorganization proceedings automatically enjoined the continuation of any judicial or administrative proceedings against the Company. Any creditor actions to obtain possession of or control over property of the Company or to create, perfect or enforce any lien against the property of the Company were also enjoined. As a result, the creditors of the Company were precluded from collecting pre-petition debts without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. 8 On the Petition Date, the Company filed a pre-negotiated Plan of Reorganization (together with all subsequent amendments and modifications the "Plan of Reorganization"), and an accompanying disclosure statement (together with all subsequent amendments and modification, the "Disclosure Statement"). The Disclosure Statement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on February 6, 1997. On March 19, 1997, the Bankruptcy Court conducted a hearing regarding confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization and entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization submitted by the Company as modified by that order. As contemplated by the Plan of Reorganization, on May 28, 1997 (the "Effective Date"), the Company emerged from Chapter 11 and consummated the Plan of Reorganization. The Plan of Reorganization provides for the continuation of the Company. Under the Plan of Reorganization, on the Effective Date the outstanding common stock of the Company (the "Old Common Stock") and the Old Options (as hereinafter defined) were cancelled and the Company, as reorganized, issued 1,866,667 shares of its new common stock, no par value (the "New Common Stock"), some of which is being held by the transfer agent subject to distribution under the Plan of Reorganization. The New Common Stock will be distributed pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Reorganization. The Plan of Reorganization provides generally that creditors of the Company are to receive distributions as follows: (i) holders of Old Senior Secured Notes receive in the aggregate (A) on account of their Allowed Secured Claims (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization), their Pro Rata Share (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization) of the Company's 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2001 (the "New Senior Secured Notes") having a principal face amount of $21.45 million and 1,225,000 shares of the New Common Stock, and (B) on account of their unsecured Deficiency Claims (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization) totaling $80,688,850, the same treatment as is afforded to holders of General Unsecured Claims (see subparagraph (iii) below); (ii) holders of Secured Claims (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization) that are not Claims (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization) arising out of Old Senior Secured Notes receive, at the option of the Company: (X) such treatment as will leave such holder unimpaired; (Y) payment in full, in cash; or (Z) return of such holder's collateral in the possession of the Company; and (iii) holders of General Unsecured Claims against the Company received their pro rata shares of (A) 525,000 shares of New Common Stock; (B) the right to receive the net proceeds of Avoidance Actions (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization) recovered pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization; and $1,100,000 in New Senior Secured Notes. With respect to Class 4 Claims (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization), the trustee with respect to the Amended Indenture (the "Amended Indenture Trustee") could receive no more than 375,000 shares of New Common Stock and $550,000 in New Senior Secured Notes on account of its allowed Class 4 Claim, and any shares the Amended Indenture Trustee would otherwise receive on account of its Class 4 Claim in excess of $550,000 in New Senior Secured Notes is required to be distributed pro rata to all other holders of Allowed Class 4 Claims. See "Business - Debt After Reorganization" for a description of the New Senior Secured Notes and "Business - Capital Structure" for a description of the Company's current capital structure. Holders of the Old Common Stock received their pro rata share of 50,000 shares of New Common Stock. Existing warrants, options and other rights to acquire Old Common Stock (collectively, the "Old Options") were cancelled and holders of such Old Options received no distributions of property on account thereof. The Plan of Reorganization provides for the discharge of all claims against the Company and/or release of liability only of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and their respective present and former directors, officers and employees, the Amended Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders Steering Committee of all liabilities in any way related to the Company. In addition, a critical element of the Plan of Reorganization is the release by the Trustee and each of the Noteholders of all of their claims against subsidiaries of the Company arising out of guaranties and pledges, except for the treatment of their Claims provided under the Plan of Reorganization. Management Agreements. The Plan of Reorganization provides for the continued employment of the Company's key management, Edward M. Tracy, Chairman and CEO, and William S. Papazian, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Director, and amended the existing employment agreements to provide for three year terms expiring in May 2000 at an annual salary of 9 $495,000 and $200,000, respectively. The employment agreements also provide for severance payments equal to one to three years upon the occurrence of termination of employment under certain circumstances. Liabilities Subject to Compromise . Prior to the commencement of the Company's Chapter 11 case, the Company incurred certain secured and unsecured obligations. Additional claims arose subsequent to the Petition Date resulting from the rejection of certain executory contracts and from the allowance by the Court of contingent and/or disputed claims. Creditors and other parties in interest filed claims with the Court which were in excess of the amounts recorded in the Company's records. These differences were related to errors, duplicative claims and overstatement of claims. Debt After Reorganization New Senior Secured Notes. Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the holders of the Old Senior Secured Notes, along with certain unsecured creditors and key members of management, were entitled to receive New Senior Secured Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $23.1 million. Interest on the New Senior Secured Notes accrues at a rate of 12% per annum, and is payable semi-annually. The New Senior Secured Notes are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, including the common stock of CGMI and CDGC. In addition, the Company's Amended and Restated Senior Secured Notes Indenture, dated as of March 27, 1997 (the "Amended Indenture") includes certain restrictive covenants. (See "Description of Amended Indenture".) The New Senior Secured Notes are redeemable prior to maturity, in whole or part, at the election of the Company, at the redemption price of 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The New Senior Secured Notes mature in May 2001. Required principal payments are as follows: May 28, 2000 $ 4,620,000 May 28, 2001 18,480,000 Additionally, the Company will make required interest payments of approximately $1,386,000 commencing November 15, 1997 and continuing semi-annually thereafter until May 2001. Description of Amended Indenture. The Amended Indenture governs the terms of the New Senior Secured Notes. The New Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed as to principal, premium, if any, and interest, on a senior basis, jointly and severally by all existing and future Subsidiaries (other than CDGC and its subsidiaries) of the Company (the "Guarantors"). The New Senior Secured Notes are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and all existing and future Guarantors. Under certain circumstances, the Collateral (as defined in the Amended Indenture) may be released from the lien created by the Amended Indenture and, under other circumstances, additional liens may be granted on the Collateral. The Company is required to offer to purchase New Senior Secured Notes with the proceeds from asset sales which are deposited in a segregated net cash proceeds account within 365 days after the date of such asset sale or when amounts accumulated from such asset sales exceeds $7,500,000, together with accrued interest to the date of repurchase. The New Senior Secured Notes and the Guaranty rank pari passu with all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, and senior in right of payment to all subordinated indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors, respectively. Principal covenants include, among others, maintenance of coverage ratio, and limitations on: dividends and other restricted payments and investments, payment restrictions affecting Subsidiaries, transactions with Affiliates (as defined in the Amended Indenture), consolidations, mergers and sales of assets, incurrences of additional Indebtedness (as defined in the Amended Indenture) and Disqualified Capital Stock (as defined in the Amended Indenture), liens, lines of business and certain transactions which must be authorized by the Advisory Committee (as defined in the Amended Indenture). The Amended Indenture contemplates the formation of an advisory committee ("Advisory Committee") for the purposes of, among other things, overseeing certain aspects of the Company's operations. The initial members of the Advisory Committee were selected by the Noteholders Steering Committee and were approved by the Bankruptcy Court. The Company and the Guarantors have covenanted to file, upon request from the Advisory Committee or the Holders of the New Senior Secured Notes or the New Common Stock, a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the New Senior Secured Notes and the New Common Stock. 10 The Company and the Guarantors also have agreed to use their best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") within 180 days following such notice. Capital Structure Prior To The Reorganization Preferred and Common Stock. Prior to the Effective Date, the Company had authorized 5 million shares of preferred stock (the "Old Preferred Stock"), of which none were issued. The Old Common Stock of the Company consisted of 75 million authorized shares of which approximately 19.0 million shares were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date. All Old Common Stock and Old Preferred Stock were cancelled on the Effective Date. Capital Structure Following the Reorganization The Plan of Reorganization provided for the amendment and restatement of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") and bylaws. The Certificate of Incorporation authorizes 3.2 million shares of New Common Stock. On the Effective Date, 1,866,667 shares of New Common Stock were issued to the Company as disbursing agent under the Plan of Reorganization. The New Common Stock will be distributed to various classes of creditors pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Reorganization. In addition, the Company's executive management became entitled to receive a total of 66,667 shares of common stock on the Effective Date. As of June 30, 1997, the Company had not allocated such shares among executive management. Also on the Effective Date, 133,333 shares were reserved to be issued to executive management pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization over the two-year period after the Effective Date. Executive management will be entitled to receive the remaining shares in two installments, on the first and second anniversary of the Effective Date. Stock Option Plan Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the Company cancelled all of its existing stock options and adopted the 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "Stock Option Plan") covering 200,000 shares of the New Common Stock, pursuant to which officers, directors, consultants of, or other people rendering services to the Company or its subsidiaries are eligible to receive incentive and/or non-qualified stock options. With respect to any option granted to any employee who was employed by the Company prior to the Effective Date of the Plan of Reorganization no more than 100,000 of the shares authorized under the Stock Option Plan may be awarded. The Stock Option Plan expires in March 2007. Incentive stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan to employees who are not 10% owners are exercisable for a period up to ten years from the date of grant at an exercise price of $1.75 or such lesser amount approved by the Company's noteholders advisory committee. The exercise price may be adjusted subject to certain recapitalization provisions of the Stock Option Plan. Incentive stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan to employees who are 10% shareholders are exercisable for a period up to five years at the same exercise price provisions. As of June 30, 1997, there were no options granted under the Stock Option Plan. Net Operating Loss Carryforwards ("NOLs") The following description of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards is based upon management's analysis of the application of the relevant sections of the Tax Code (as herein defined) to the net operating loss carryforwards of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or the courts will agree with management's analysis. There are substantial risks associated with the Company's utilization of its NOLs. See "Risk Factors - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards." For purposes of this discussion, unless otherwise defined or modified, the term "Gross NOLs" means the total NOLs reported to the Internal Revenue Service on the federal income tax returns of the particular taxpayer, before the application of any reductions and related adjustments described in the following paragraphs under this heading "The Net Operating Loss 11 Carryforwards". Based on its federal income tax returns for the years through June 30, 1996, the Company and its subsidiaries reported cumulative Gross NOLs of approximately $107,000,000. Under Section 172(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Tax Code") as in effect for those years, unused NOLs expire after fifteen taxable years from the taxable year of a loss. Because these losses were generated in 1994, 1995 and 1996, they should expire in 2009, 2010 and 2011 respectively. For purposes of this discussion, the term "Net NOLs" means the amount of NOLs of the particular taxpayer for federal income tax purposes adjusted to reflect reductions and related adjustments required under Tax Code ss. 108 and Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5), assuming that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies, but subject to Internal Revenue Service audits, subsequent changes in the ownership of the Company and effects under Tax Code ss. 382, and the application of Tax Code Sections 269 and 384. See "Net Operating Loss Carryforwards - Application of Tax Code ss. 382 Under the Chapter 11 Reorganization". After taking into account the reorganization of the Company pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and assuming that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies as described in more detail in this section "Net Operating Loss Carryforwards", management of the Company believes the Net NOLs of the Company and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997 are approximately $31,500,000, although no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to utilize these NOLs. See "Risk Factors - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards". Cancellation of Debt Income Under Tax Code ss. 108. Under the Plan of Reorganization, unsecured indebtedness of the Company with an aggregate face amount of approximately $110,000,000 was canceled. Generally, Tax Code ss. 108 provides that a debtor whose indebtedness is canceled must include the amount of canceled indebtedness in gross income to the extent the indebtedness canceled exceeds any consideration (e.g., cash, notes, stock or other property) given for the cancellation. Tax Code ss. 108 further provides, however, that if a taxpayer is the subject of a bankruptcy case and the cancellation of indebtedness ("COD") is pursuant to a plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the excess amount canceled is not required to be included in gross income. Instead, any such excess amounts so excluded from gross income reduce prescribed tax attributes of the debtor, including NOLs and the bases of the assets of the debtor, in a specified order of priority beginning with NOLs. Management of the Company believes that approximately $75,500,000 of its Gross NOLs of approximately $107,000,000 as of June 30, 1996 must be reduced to take into account cancellation of indebtedness of the Company pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization. Tax Code ss. 382 In General. If a corporation undergoes an "ownership change", Tax Code ss. 382 limits the corporation's right to use its NOLs each year to an annual percentage (based on the federal long-term tax-exempt rate which was 5.64% in May of 1997) of the fair market value of the corporation at the time of the ownership change (the "Section 382 Limitation"). If an ownership change under Tax Code ss. 382 is triggered, a corporation may also be restricted from utilizing certain built-in losses and built-in deductions recognized during a five-year recognition period after the ownership change. A corporation is considered to undergo "an ownership change" if, as a result of changes in the stock ownership by "5-percent shareholders" or as a result of certain reorganizations, the percentage of the corporation's stock owned by those 5-percent shareholders has increased by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of stock owned by those shareholders at any time during a prescribed prior three-year testing period. Five-percent shareholders are persons who hold 5% or more of the stock of a corporation at any time during the testing period as well as groups of shareholders who are not individually 5-percent shareholders. Application of Tax Code ss. 382 Under the Chapter 11 Reorganization. If the Company is subject to the Section 382 Limitation as a result of the consummation of the Plan of Reorganization, its annual Section 382 Limitation would be equal to the product of the applicable long-term tax-exempt rate (5.64%) times the fair market value of the equity of the Company immediately before the ownership change. Thus, for example, if the value of the equity of the Company as of the Effective Date of the Plan of Reorganization was $400,000, the Company could only use approximately $23,000 of its NOLs each year until they expire. Although a 50% ownership change was expected to occur as a result of the transfer of stock of the Company to creditors pursuant to the Plan or Reorganization, an exception under Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) is believed by management to have applied as described as follows. Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) provides that the Section 382 Limitation will not apply to a loss corporation if (1) the corporation, immediately before the ownership change, is under the 12 jurisdiction of a court in a United States Code Title 11 or similar case, and (2) the shareholders and creditors of the old corporation own at least 50% of the total voting power and value of the stock of the corporation after the "ownership change" as a result of being shareholders and creditors before the change. Stock transferred to such creditors counts only if it is transferred with respect to "old and cold" indebtedness. Indebtedness of creditors qualifies as "old and cold" if the indebtedness (i) was held by a particular creditor for at least 18 months before the date of the filing of the Chapter 11 case, or (ii) arose in the ordinary course of the trade or business of the old loss corporation and was held by the person who at all times held a beneficial interest in that debt. These requirements will not apply, however, and thus a loss corporation generally may treat the debt as meeting the holding period requirement, unless (i) the creditor becomes a 5-percent shareholder of the loss corporation (directly or indirectly) immediately after the ownership change, or (ii) such creditor's participation in the formation of the reorganization plan makes it evident to the debtor that the creditor has not owned the debt in question for the required period. Although the Company's management has attempted to determine the extent to which the indebtedness of creditors who received stock pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization qualifies as "old and cold", in certain instances there is still a lack of corroborative evidence as to the status of certain creditors, and the Amended Indenture Trustee has apparently not yet fixed the record date for determining who is entitled to receive a distribution of the New Common Stock as a result of being a holder of Old Secured Notes. Management is attempting to obtain written confirmation of the status of the creditors who are receiving New Common Stock. Management has requested the Amended Indenture Trustee to fix the record date on or before the Effective Date of the Plan of Reorganization. Because of the uncertainty related to these issues, management of the Company is unable to document that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies to the ownership change that occurred as a result of the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization. However, based on the information available to management of the Company, and based on management's belief that it can favorably resolve the date on which the Amended Indenture Trustee fixes the record date for distributions of New Common Stock, management of the Company believes that sufficient indebtedness of creditors will qualify as "old and cold" under Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) so that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) will apply to this ownership change. No assurances, however, can be given that documentation will ultimately be obtained by the Company from creditors to confirm this belief. Likewise, if the Amended Indenture Trustee fixes a record date for distribution of the New Common Stock which is after the Effective Date of the Plan of Reorganization, transfers of the right to receive the New Common Stock after the Effective Date may cause the Company not to be able to avail itself of Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5). Under ss. 382(1)(5), although the Section 382 Limitation does not apply, the Gross NOLs originally available to the Company must nevertheless be reduced to the extent of the amount of interest accrued with respect to such canceled debt during the three taxable years prior to the taxable year of the "ownership change" and during the taxable year of the "ownership change" (up to the change date). The Company's management estimates that this Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) adjustment to the Company's Gross NOLs is approximately $32,000,000. $27,300,000 of this amount is duplicated as a reduction under Tax Code Section 108, so that if the Company is under Tax Code Section 382(1)(5) the reduction to NOLs under Tax Code Section 108 would amount to $54,700,000 rather than $82,000,000. See "Cancellation of Debt Income Under Tax Code Section 108" in this Section. After taking into account the reductions and related adjustments to the Gross NOLs under Tax Code ss. 108 and Tax Code ss. 382, assuming that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies, management of the Company believes that the Net NOLs of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997 are approximately $31,500,000, subject to Internal Revenue Service audits, subsequent changes in the ownership of the Company and effects under Tax Code ss. 382, and the application of Tax Code Sections 269 and 384, which are described below in this section. See "Risk Factors - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards". Tax Code ss. 382 and Subsequent Events and Investors. If Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applied to the Company, and a future ownership change under Tax Code ss. 382 is triggered within two (2) years after the ownership change generated pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the Company would not be allowed to use any of its NOLs incurred as of that first ownership change. It is therefore important for the Company to monitor further transfers of New Common Stock by its 5-percent shareholders and further issuances or redemptions of Company common stock. Because Tax Code ss. 382 tests whether a 50 percentage point ownership change has occurred over a three-year testing period, the Company's capacity to issue more common stock during the three years subsequent to the Effective Date will be curtailed. 13 Certain Transferability Restrictions. In accordance with Section 10 of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, the Company is imposing certain transferability restrictions upon its 5-percent shareholders for purposes of Tax Code ss. 382. These restrictions generally provide that the 5-percent shareholders shall be prohibited from transferring shares of New Common Stock without the consent of a designated Tax Advisor (the "Tax Advisor"). The Tax Advisor shall have no obligation to consent to a transfer unless it determines that the proposed transfer and any related proposed transfers do not create an unreasonable risk of loss of, or material limitation on, the Company's use of its net operating loss carryforwards. In the event that the Tax Advisor is willing to consent to a transfer of New Common Stock by any one shareholder subject to transferability restrictions, the other shareholders subject to equivalent restrictions will be offered the opportunity to engage in a transfer on a ratable basis. These restrictions generally expire on the earlier of (i) the date that is two years after the Effective Date, (ii) the date on which the Company determines that the Plan of Reorganization does not qualify under Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5), or (iii) the date the Company's Board of Directors in its reasonable business judgment determines that the restrictions are no longer necessary. Effect of Tax Code ss. 384. Congress adopted Tax Code ss. 384 in 1987 to prevent a loss corporation from using its pre-acquisition NOLs and net built-in losses against any net built-in gains of a corporation the control of which (utilizing an 80% test of Tax Code Section 1504(a)(2)) is acquired by the loss corporation or whose assets are acquired by the loss corporation in certain types of reorganizations. The limitation of Tax Code Section 384 applies to built-in gains recognized within the five-year recognition period after the acquisition date. Tax Code ss. 384 will prevent the Company from utilizing its NOLs against built-in gains recognized by any acquired companies (assuming the control test is met) within five years of the acquisition date. Effect of Tax Code ss. 269. Tax Code ss. 269(a) provides that if: (1) any person or persons acquire ... directly or indirectly, control of a corporation, or (2) any corporation acquires ..., directly or indirectly, property of another corporation .. the basis of which property, in the hands of the acquiring corporation, is determined by reference to the basis in the hands of the transferor corporation; and the principal purpose of such acquisition was the evasion or avoidance of Federal income tax by securing the benefit of a deduction, credit, or other allowance which such person or corporation would not otherwise enjoy, then the Internal Revenue Service may disallow such deduction, credit or other allowance. Control is defined to mean the ownership of stock possessing at least 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote or at least 50% of the total value of shares of all classes of stock of the corporation. Under Treas. Reg. ss. 1.269-3(a), the determination of the purpose for which an acquisition was made requires a scrutiny of the entire circumstances in which the transaction or course of conduct occurred, in connection with the tax result claimed to arise therefrom. It is uncertain whether the Internal Revenue Service would attempt to apply Tax Code ss. 269 to the transactions provided for under the Plan of Reorganization. Arguably, the "old and cold" creditors' receipt of Company common stock was a direct consequence of their having extended credit to the Company. If the Old Secured Notes of a creditor were acquired by an investor to achieve control of the Company and thus avoid or evade federal income tax, the Internal Revenue Service might attempt to apply Tax Code ss. 269 to prevent the Company from utilizing its NOLs. Risk Factors In addition to other information contained elsewhere in this document, the reader of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 should consider carefully the factors set forth below. Net Operating Loss Carryforwards. While management believes that the Net NOLs of the Company and its subsidiaries are approximately $31,500,000 as of June 30, 1997 (see "Description of Business - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards - Application of Tax Code ss. 382 Under The Chapter 11 Reorganization), there are risks that the NOLs may have been significantly diminished or lost as a result of the cancellation of indebtedness occasioned by the Plan of Reorganization and possible subsequent transfers of rights to 14 receive New Common Stock under the Plan of Reorganization to the extent that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) does not apply to the ownership change associated with the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization. There are also risks associated with the Company's use of its NOLs to reduce Federal income tax payments, including the possibility that the Internal Revenue Service may seek to challenge such use, that the Company may be unable to produce significant levels of taxable income prior to the expiration of the NOLs and that a subsequent "change in ownership" of the Company may occur which would cause the Company to lose all or a substantial portion of the NOLs. Although the Company has attempted to take steps to restrict transfers of New Common Stock in order to avoid a future "change in ownership," there can be no assurance that these steps will be successful. See "Description of Business - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards" and Consolidated Financial Statements. Substantial Indebtedness of the Company; Potential Limited Capacity to Satisfy Repayment Obligations. As of May 28, 1997, the total amount of outstanding Company long-term indebtedness was equal to $23,100,000 comprised of the New Senior Secured Notes. As a result of the Company's indebtedness, the Company has significant interest and principal repayment obligations, and substantial cash is required to fulfill these obligations. This level of debt poses a substantial risk to the holders of the Company's securities, including the risk that the Company might not generate sufficient cash flow from existing operations to service the Company's debt and the risk that the Company could have limited financial capacity to respond to changes in market conditions, extraordinary or unanticipated capital needs, shortfalls in projected cash flow from operations or other changes. Because of the amount of the Company's indebtedness, the Company's financial condition could be materially adversely affected by a decline in revenues or increase in expenses. Additionally, the Company believes it will require new sources of cash beyond its existing operations in order to fund the final payment of principal on its New Senior Secured Notes in 2001. Expirations of Management Contracts. CGMI's management contracts all currently expire in the year 2000. The ability of CGMI to continue to operate is highly dependent upon the acquisition of new management contracts. There can be no assurance that CGMI will be able to attract a sufficient number of new management contracts to replace existing ones. Need for Additional Financing for the Development of Gaming Facilities. The development, management and operation of Native American gaming and other gaming establishments and ancillary and complimentary businesses is time consuming and capital intensive. Substantial capital is needed to finance the licensing, development, construction, architectural, engineering, equipping, legal and accounting fees and operating expenses associated with the management, development and operation of casino gaming establishments. It is anticipated that the Company will require significant additional capital in order to fund future projects, including, without limitation, the Narragansett project. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available or, if available, that the terms thereof will be attractive to the Company. No financing commitments for future capital needs have been obtained as of the date hereof. Need to Comply with Strict Statutory and Regulatory Standards in the Gaming Industry; Expansion Dependent upon Favorable Regulatory Dispositions. In order to enter the Native American gaming and other gaming businesses in new jurisdictions, the Company will be subject to regulation by each state in which it conducts business, and to a certain extent, federal and Tribal law. See "Business -- Native American Gaming Operations" and "Business -- Company's Strategy". In jurisdictions where gaming has recently been legalized, gaming cannot begin until a licensing and regulatory framework is promulgated and regulatory commissions are appointed, staffed and funded. The regulatory framework adopted by any jurisdiction may impose restrictions or costs that would materially detract from the profitability of gaming operations. The Company must obtain a gaming license for each location where it will operate or manage a gaming casino, and each of the Company's officers, directors, managers and principal shareholders is subject to strict scrutiny and approval of the gaming commission or other regulatory body of each state in which the Company may conduct gaming operations. After a gaming license or approval is obtained by the Company, regulatory authorities have broad powers with respect to the licensing of casino operations, and may revoke, suspend, condition or 15 limit the Company's gaming licenses, and impose substantial fines and take other actions, any one of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Congress and the States historically have permitted, restricted and abolished gaming from time to time depending on prevailing public attitudes. Congress and the States each have the power to restrict or eliminate gaming at any time. Any federal or state action to limit Native American or other types of gaming may have a material adverse effect on the Company. In particular, the Native American gaming industry has had a limited operating history and there is uncertainty concerning the future of the industry because of the rapidly changing and increasingly hostile legal, regulatory and political environment. If new legislation is enacted by Congress further restricting Native American gaming, it may apply retroactively. Gaming operators are typically subject to significant taxes and fees in addition to normal Federal and state corporate income taxes which do not apply to other industries. Such taxes and fees are generally in excess of 12% of gaming revenues, may exceed 20% in some jurisdictions and are subject to increase at any time. Any material increase in these taxes or fees would adversely affect the Company. The Company anticipates the payment of substantial taxes and fees with respect to its existing and future operations. Competition. The Native American gaming industry and the gaming industry as a whole, and businesses which are ancillary or complimentary to these industries, are highly competitive (See "Business -- Native American Gaming Competition"). As the Native American gaming and other secondary gaming industries emerge, the Company expects that new competitors will enter the market. Some of the competitors of the Company will have more personnel and substantially greater financial, technological, gaming industry experience, political experience and other resources than the Company. The Company expects substantial competition for new projects as new companies enter the market and/or industry consolidation creates new competition. This competition could cause increases in the cost of securing favorable new projects. The Company's Native American gaming casinos compete with other forms of gaming, including land-based casinos, other Native American casinos, riverboat and dockside gaming, bingo and pull-tab games, pari-mutuel betting on horse racing and dog racing, state-sponsored lotteries and gaming in bars and truck stops. The Native American gaming industry has also experienced significant growth in the past few years and competition by management companies for favorable Class II and Class III contracts has increased significantly. In contrast to the early stages of Native American gaming, well-established companies in the primary gaming market now compete for a limited number of Tribal management contracts as opposed to significantly smaller operations which competed for such contracts a few years ago. As a result of such competition, new contracts are becoming less lucrative to management companies as Tribes have more management companies to choose from. Additionally, many of the Company's competitors have substantially more Native American gaming experience, are larger and have greater financial resources than the Company in order to fund the development of new Tribal casinos and attract new management contracts. New jurisdictions may legalize various forms of gaming that may compete with the Company. If other forms of gaming, including casino gaming, are legalized in additional jurisdictions, existing or future gaming establishments in which the Company may become involved will compete with these new forms of legalized gaming. The Company expects that many of its competitors will have more gaming industry experience, will be larger and will have significantly greater financial and other resources than the Company. Given these factors, it is possible that the competition will increase in the casino gaming industry and that the Company's existing or future operations will not be profitable. Loans to Tribes; Limited Recourse Against Tribes. In general, Native American Tribes do not make any equity investments in the construction, development or equipment of casinos. With respect to existing and future projects, the Company has been or will be required to make loans to Tribes for all of the costs associated with the construction, development, equipment and operation of casinos managed and to be managed by the Company. These loans are 16 not conventional real estate and construction loans subject to customary mortgages and encumbrances. If the casinos that the Company manages do not generate sufficient cash flow, the Company's loans will not be repaid. Native American Tribes are sovereign nations and are generally immune from legal proceedings commenced in state or federal courts. Also, congressional policy has mandated limited liability of Native American Tribes in such cases. Thus, the Company's only recourse for collection of indebtedness from a Tribe or money damages for breach or wrongful termination of a management contract would be from revenues, if any, from casino operations. Although CGMI and CDGC normally seek and obtain limited waivers of sovereign immunity from Tribes, these waivers are difficult to enforce, particularly prior to receipt of NIGC approval of a management contract. In the event that the Company should make loans to a Native American Tribe, the Company may be required to subordinate such Tribal loans and other distributions due the Company from the Tribe to other obligations of the Tribe related to that casino. Accordingly, in the event of a default by the Tribe, the Company's loans to that Tribe may not be repaid until the Tribe's senior creditors have been repaid in full. Relationships with Native American Tribes. Native American Tribes are sovereign nations with their own governmental systems. Tribal officials are subject to replacement by appointment or election. The Company's relationship with a Tribe may improve or deteriorate under new administrations. Good relationships with Native American Tribes and their officials are critical to the Company's ability to obtain and renew management contracts. A deterioration in the relationship between the Company and a Tribe would have a material adverse effect on the Company, including possible termination of management contracts. Tribal/State Compacts. Management contracts and the operation of casinos on Native American land, including the right to offer certain types of gaming, are subject to Tribal/State Compacts, the terms of which vary from state to state, and may vary from Tribe to Tribe within a state. At least 20 states have signed Tribal/State Compacts with Native American Tribes that permit certain types of casino gaming on Native American land. Changes in state gaming laws may limit the types of gaming that are eligible for Tribal/State Compacts. The repeal of any Tribal/State Compact or any amendment that limits the types of gaming that may be conducted on Native American land in the state may have a material adverse effect on the Company. Certain states have resisted entering into or renegotiating existing Tribal/State Compacts, and Tribal/State Compacts have been the subject of litigation in several states. The Company cannot predict which states, if any, will allow casino gaming on Native American land, the timing of any such approvals or whether the states will attempt to renegotiate such compacts in the future. Risks of Construction. Native American gaming and other gaming projects and ancillary business construction projects which the Company is expected to undertake entail risks, including delays in construction, shortages of material or skilled labor, unforeseen engineering and/or geological problems, including dredging of waterways to facilitate riverboat casino gaming, work stoppages, weather interference and unanticipated cost increases. Pursuant to typical construction contracts, the Company may have to pay certain construction cost overruns. The Company anticipates that expenses in connection with the dredging of waterways to facilitate riverboat casino gaming will be substantial depending upon the location and site conditions. Construction, equipment or staffing problems or difficulties obtaining any of the requisite licenses, permits and authorizations from regulatory authorities may delay the construction or opening of casinos which the Company may develop. Native American Gaming Regulation. Gaming on Native American lands is extensively regulated under federal and state law, Tribal/State Compacts and Tribal law. The NIGC oversees Class II gaming (essentially bingo and similar games) and, to a lesser degree, Class III gaming (e.g., slots, casino games and banking card games). The actual regulation of Class III gaming is determined pursuant to the terms of Tribal/State Compacts, which govern gaming on Tribal lands. The terms and conditions of management contracts for the operation of gaming facilities on Native American lands are governed by IGRA, which is administered by the NIGC. Under IGRA, the NIGC must approve all management contracts between Native American Tribes and managers of Tribal gaming facilities. 17 Historically, the Secretary of the Interior, acting through the Bureau of Indian Affairs (the "BIA"), was charged with the review of management contracts and collateral agreements, such as promissory notes and security agreements executed in connection with a management contract. Though IGRA became law in 1988, the BIA retained approval authority of management contracts and collateral agreements until February 22, 1993, the effective date of the regulations regarding the approval of management contracts by the NIGC. The NIGC regulations provide detailed requirements as to certain provisions which must be included in management contracts, including a term not to exceed five years except that upon request of a Tribe, a term of seven years may be allowed by the NIGC Chairman if the Chairman is satisfied that the capital investment and income projections for the gaming facility require the additional time. Further, the fee received by the manager of a gaming facility may not exceed 30% of the net revenues except that a fee of 40% of net revenues may be approved if the NIGC Chairman is satisfied that the capital investment and income projections for the gaming facility require the additional fee. In addition, the Company, its directors, persons with management responsibilities and certain of the Company's owners, must provide background information and be investigated by the NIGC and be found suitable to be affiliated with a gaming operation in order for the management agreements to be approved by the NIGC. The NIGC regulations provide that each of the ten persons who have the greatest direct or indirect financial interest in a management contract must be found suitable in order for the management agreement to be approved by the NIGC. The NIGC regulations provide that any entity with a financial interest in a contract must be found suitable, as must the directors and ten largest shareholders of such entities in the case of a corporate entity, or the ten largest holders of interest in the case of a trust or partnership. The Chairman of the NIGC may reduce the scope of information to be provided by institutional investors. At any time, the NIGC has the power to investigate and require the finding of suitability of any person with a direct or indirect interest in a management agreement, as determined by the NIGC. The Company must pay all fees associated with background investigations by the NIGC. The NIGC regulations require that background information described above must be submitted for approval within ten days of any proposed change in financial interest in a management contract. The NIGC regulations do not address any specialized procedures for investigations and suitability findings in the context of publicly held corporations. If, subsequent to the approval of a management contract, the NIGC determines that any of its requirements pertaining to the management contract have been violated, it may require the management contract to be modified or voided, subject to rights of appeal. In addition, any amendments to the management contract must be approved by the NIGC. The NIGC regulations provide that a management contract must be disapproved if the NIGC determines that: (1) any person with a direct or indirect financial interest in, or having management responsibility for, a management contract has been convicted of a felony or any misdemeanor gaming offense; (ii) has engaged in prior activities which make him unsuitable to be connected with gaming; (iii) is an elected member of a Tribe that is party to the management contract; or (iv) has provided false statements to the NIGC or a Tribe or has refused to respond to questions from the NIGC; (2) the management contractor has attempted to unduly interfere with or influence Tribal decisions relating to the gaming operation or has failed to follow the management contract and applicable Tribal ordinances; or (3) a trustee would not approve the management contract. Because the NIGC has only recently been provided the regulatory authority to approve management contracts, it is not yet clear how this authority affects the BIA's statutory rights of approval of contracts between Native American Tribes and non-Native Americans which state that if contracts between non-Native Americans and Native American Tribes do not adhere to certain statutory requirements, such contracts will be void. Several bills have been introduced in Congress which would amend IGRA. To this date, no such bill has passed either house of Congress. If IGRA was amended, the amendment could change the governmental structure and requirements within which the Tribe could conduct gaming. Each of CGMI's Native American gaming management projects is also regulated by state and/or Tribal gaming commissions. The Company and CGMI have 18 submitted applications for licenses to manage and finance Native American gaming operations with the various applicable Tribal and state gaming commissions for Arizona, Oregon and Washington and have subsequently received permanent or temporary gaming licenses from each of such Tribes and states, permitting them to act as managers/financiers of Native American gaming operations in such states. To the best of its knowledge, CGMI is presently in material compliance with all applicable gaming rules and regulations. The Amended Indenture. The Company is subject to certain restrictive covenants pursuant to the Amended Indenture. The Company is also required to repurchase the New Senior Secured Notes under certain conditions. See "Business--Debt After Reorganization--Description of Amended Indenture." The terms, conditions, covenants and restrictions contained in the Amended Indenture could materially adversely affect the Company. Default Under Amended Indenture. The Amended Indenture contemplates that certain actions of the Company require prior notice to (and in certain cases, approval from) the Advisory Committee. No proposed member of the Advisory Committee has yet executed an appropriate confidentiality agreement and, therefore no such proposed member has qualified to serve on such committee. Moreover, the Company has been notified by several state gaming regulators in States in which the Company conducts business, that the breadth and scope of the powers granted to the Advisory Committee in the Amended Indenture require that proposed members of the Advisory Committee be licensed by the appropriate gaming regulators and further that, in the absence of such licensure, actions by members of the Advisory Committee would constitute an improper circumvention of applicable licensing requirements. In the absence of a functioning Advisory Committee, the Company may not be able to enter into certain transactions or otherwise conduct its business without violating certain covenants in the Amended Indenture. The Company has been notified by the Amended Indenture Trustee that the Amended Indenture Trustee has reserved its right to assert that certain actions taken by the Company to date (including the failure of the Company to have its budget approved by the Advisory Committee) constitute a default under the Indenture. To date, however, the Amended Indenture Trustee has not delivered to the Company any notice of an Event of Default. Moreover, the Amended Indenture Trustee has notified the Company that it has been directed by a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to forebear from taking any action to accelerate the New Senior Secured Notes until November 14, 1997, during which time the Company will have an opportunity to cure any such default. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with Counsel and Noteholders representing a majority of Noteholders for the purpose of amending the Amended Indenture to affect solely the rights, duties and powers of the Advisory Committee and provide for an Advisory Committee with the authority to approve the Company's budget but without the need for Advisory Committee members to be licensed as required by gaming regulators or the possible elimination of the Advisory Committee concept from the Indenture altogether. The Amended Indenture Trustee, the majority of Noteholders and the Company believe it is probable that the parties will be able to amend the Amended Indenture to cure the default by November 14, 1997. There is no assurance, however, that a satisfactory resolution of this matter can be achieved. In the absence of a satisfactory resolution, the Amended Indenture Trustee would elect to declare an Event of Default in which case the New Senior Secured Notes could be accelerated and the Amended Indenture Trustee could seek to enforce its rights under the Amended Indenture, including foreclosing on its collateral. Continued Listing on NASDAQ. On June 25, 1997, the New Common Stock was delisted from the OTC-Electronic Bulletin Board by NASDAQ because there were no longer any market makers for the New Common Stock. The Company has contacted and will continue to contact its former market makers to encourage such entities to submit the necessary documents to NASDAQ to become market makers of the New Common Stock. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract a sufficient number of market makers for the New Common Stock to be relisted on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board or that NASDAQ will approve an application by the Company for relisting. As of the date hereof, there is no established public trading market for the New Common Stock. Dependence Upon Key Personnel. The Company is substantially dependent upon the experience and abilities of Edward M. Tracy, its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and other key executives whose experience in gaming and requisite licensure makes them unique. Mr. Tracy has been instrumental in positioning the Company to take advantage of the opportunities to establish 19 casino gaming operations on Native American lands. While the Company has employment agreements with Mr. Tracy and other key executives, the loss of their services could materially adversely affect the Company. Suitability of Associated Persons. The NIGC, state and Tribal gaming regulatory agencies closely regulate the suitability of persons owning or seeking to renew an interest in a gaming license or permit, which suitability can be adversely affected by persons associated with licensees or permitees. Additionally, any person or entity having any direct or indirect interests in the Company or any casino directly or indirectly owned by the Company, including holders of shares of New Common Stock, the New Senior Secured Notes or any warrants or options to purchase shares of New Common Stock may be subject to administrative action, including personal history and background investigations. The actions of such associated persons over whom the Company may have no control could jeopardize any licenses held by the Company. Repurchase of Securities Relating to Gaming Matters. Persons who acquire beneficial ownership of the Company's securities may be subject to certain reporting and qualification procedures established by regulatory authorities. Such regulatory scrutiny and related limitations could adversely affect the marketability of the Company's securities. The Amended Indenture provides that the New Senior Secured Notes may be redeemed by the Company at par from holders of Senior Secured Notes if the Company believes such action is required to prevent impairment of a material gaming license and in certain other circumstances. The Company has amended its Certificate of Incorporation to provide that if the Company reasonably determines that ownership of its securities by any person or entity will either preclude, interfere with, threaten or delay the issuance of or jeopardize the maintenance and existence of any gaming license or result in the imposition of burdensome terms or conditions on such license, the Company will have certain rights to repurchase such securities or to require the sale of such securities. Accordingly, in certain situations, a holder of such securities could be subject to the risk of forfeiture or compelled sale. Environmental Matters. The Company is subject to certain Federal, state and local environmental protection, health and safety laws, regulations and ordinances that apply to non-gaming businesses generally, such as the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, CERCLA, Occupational Safety and Health Act and similar state statutes. To the best of its knowledge, the Company believes that it is in material compliance with all such statutes and the regulations or ordinances thereunder. Bank Secrecy Act. Similar to banks and other financial institutions, casinos are required to monitor and report currency receipts and disbursements in excess of a certain limit to the United States Department of the Treasury. Under amendments recently adopted by the Department of the Treasury, casinos must obtain and document customer identification data for all currency transactions above a specified amount. These requirements impose recordkeeping requirements on the Company which may increase its overall cost of operations. However, the Company does not believe that such requirements will have a material adverse impact on the financial condition or operations of the Company. Certain Local Regulations. The Company must also obtain liquor licenses from state regulatory agencies for each of its proposed operations. Rules and regulations in this regard are strict and the loss of such licenses is possible for regulatory violations. The loss or suspension of a liquor license could significantly impact a licensee's operations. Local building, health and fire codes and similar regulations could also impact the Company's operations. Violations of any of such statutes, codes or regulations could have a material adverse impact on the financial condition or operations of the Company. Employees The Company and its subsidiaries had 9 employees at fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES CGMI leases office space in Phoenix, Arizona pursuant to a lease agreement which expires December 31, 1997. 20 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, all legal proceedings against the Company prior to the Effective Date were settled. As a result there was no material litigation pending against the Company on June 30, 1997. The Company is or may become a defendant in pending or threatened legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business although is not aware of the existence of any material pending or threatened legal proceedings at this time. See also "Risk Factors - Potential Default Under Amended Indenture". Reorganization of the Company The Company filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey on December 23, 1996 (the "Petition Date"). The petition did not involve the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company operated as a debtor-in-possession until March 19, 1997 when its Plan of Reorganization was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court. As a debtor-in-possession, the Company was authorized to operate its business but could not engage in transactions outside its ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. On the Petition Date, the Company filed its Plan of Reorganization, and an accompanying disclosure statement (together with all subsequent amendments and modification, the "Disclosure Statement"). The Disclosure Statement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on February 6, 1997. On March 19, 1997, the Bankruptcy Court conducted a hearing regarding confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization and entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization submitted by the Company as modified by that order. As contemplated by the Plan of Reorganization, on the Effective Date the Company emerged from Chapter 11 and consummated the Plan of Reorganization. For further details on the Company's reorganization and for information regarding the reorganization of CCCD, a former subsidiary of the Company, see "Business-Reorganization". ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, no matter was submitted to a vote of security holders, through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise. ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS Through June 24, 1997, the New Common Stock was eligible for trading on the OTC-Electronic Bulletin Board. On June 25, 1997, the New Common Stock was delisted from the OTC-Electronic Bulletin Board by NASDAQ because there were no longer any market makers for the New Common Stock. The Company has contacted and will continue to contact its former market makers to encourage them to submit the necessary documents to NASDAQ to become market makers of the New Common Stock. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract a sufficient number of market makers for the New Common Stock to be relisted on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board or that NASDAQ will approve an application by the Company for relisting. As of the date hereof, there is no established public trading market for the New Common Stock. As of September 30, 1997, there were 109 holders of record of the New Common Stock. The Company is currently authorized under its Certificate of Incorporation to issue up to 3,200,000 shares of New Common Stock. The following table sets forth the range of high and low bid prices for the Common Stock and Investor Warrants, as reported by the NASDAQ Stock 21 Market for the periods indicated. The prices set forth below represent quotes between dealers and do not include commissions, mark-ups or mark-downs, and may not necessarily represent actual transactions. The Investor Warrants were issued in the Company's private placement financing in February 1994 and were listed on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market on August 12, 1994. All the Investor Warrants were cancelled pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization. Common Stock Investor Warrants Calendar Quarter High Low High Low 1995: Third Quarter $0.69 $0.16 $0.23 $0.01 Fourth Quarter $0.38 $0.07 $0.06 $0.01 1996: First Quarter $0.30 $0.10 $0.08 $0.02 Second Quarter $0.30 $0.13 $0.05 $0.03 Third Quarter $0.14 $0.06 $0.05 $0.03 Fourth Quarter $0.12 $0.02 $0.07 $0.001 1997: First Quarter $0.08 $0.01 $0.001 $0.001 Second Quarter* $0.03 $0.125 $0.02 $0.01 * -- On June 25, 1997, the New Common Stock was delisted from the OTC-Electronic Bulletin Board by NASDAQ. The Company has never paid and does not presently anticipate the payment of cash dividends in the foreseeable future. It is the present intention of the Board of Directors to retain earnings, if any, to provide for the growth of the Company. Payment of dividends in the future will depend, among other things, upon the Company's ability to generate earnings, its need for capital and its financial condition. Additionally, the Company's ability to pay dividends is limited by the Amended Indenture and applicable state law. ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA (1) The selected consolidated financial data set forth below for each of the last five fiscal years ended June 30, is derived from the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes. Due to the Company's reorganization, comparisons of 1997 to prior years may be of limited use in determining operating or other financial trends in the Company's business. This data should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". 22 IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reorganized Prececessor Company Company ------------------------------------------------------------ Statement of Operations May 29, Data (2) 1997 Through July 1, 1996 June 30, Through 1997(A) May 28, 1997 Years Ended June 30 --------------------------------------------- 1996 1995 1994 1993 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross Revenues 753 7,447 7,663 10,637 1,724 -- Operating Expenses 1,921 7,238 14,441 111,908 16,580 3,003 Reorganization Items (Expense) -- (50,805) (600) -- -- -- Other Income (Expense) (168) (6,603) 3,660 (15,605) (9,312) 255 (Loss)Income Before Extraordinary Items(4) (1,351) (44,288) (4,039) (116,876) (23,685) (1,652) Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt -- (1,998) -- -- -- -- Gain From Reorganization Items -- (103,464) -- -- -- -- Net (Loss) Income (1,351) 145,754 (4,039) (117,709) (23,784) 658 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Earnings Per Share:(B) Income (Loss) Before Extraordinary Item ($0.72) N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Income From Discontinued Operations -- N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Gain From Reorganization Items -- N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Net (Loss) Income ($0.72) N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Weighted Average Shares Outstanding 1,866,667 N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Predecessor Company Reorganized as of June 30, Company --------------------------------------------- Balance Sheet Data: 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Working Capital (Deficit) (4) 6,431 (118,020) (143,893) 26,545 6,010 Total Assets 25,114 60,048 82,977 168,906 9,265 Long-Term Debt (4) 23,100 -- 20,293 150,815 -- Total Liabilities 26,065 160,308 179,199 158,928 341 Stockholder's Equity (Deficit) (951) (100,260) (96,222) 9,979 8,924 Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges (5) (5) (5) (5) (5) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) As a result of the sale of the Company's former unrelated business in 1992, closure of the River City Joint Venture in 1995, and the Company's reorganization in 1997, the comparability and informative value of information reflected in the forgoing selected financial data with respect to the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1995 and 1993 may not be meaningful for the reader of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. 23 (2) Includes non-recurring income of $4,196,000 and $4,049,000 at June 30, 1995 and June 30, 1993 respectively, received by the Company in connection with discontinued operations.

(B) The weighted average number of common shares outstanding and net income per common share for the predecessor company (periods through May 28, 1997 (the Effective Date)) have not been presented because, due to the Company's reorganization and implementation of fresh-start reporting, they are not comparable to subsequent periods and irrelevant. See "Business - Reorganization" for further details. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Selected Consolidated Financial Data and the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. As a result of the sale of the Company's former unrelated business and disposal of certain gaming operations as well as the reorganization of the Company's indebtedness, the comparability and informative value of year-to-year comparisons may not be meaningful or precise. Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements To the extent the information contained in this discussion and analysis of consolidated financial condition and results of operations and the information included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 are viewed as forward-looking statements, the reader is cautioned that various risks and uncertainties exist that could cause the actual future results to differ materially from that inferred by the forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "potential", "believes" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. A discussion of the risk factors regarding the implementation of the Company's business strategy is set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in the section entitled "Risk Factors." Failure to successfully implement this strategy would raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability fulfill its principal obligations under its New Senior Secured Notes. The reader is further cautioned that risks and uncertainties exist that have not been mentioned herein due to their unforeseeable nature, but which, nevertheless, may impact the Company's future operations. Liquidity and Capital Resources Sources and Uses of Cash. For the year fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 the Company had a net increase in cash of $1,821,000 of which $673,000 and $1,148,000 was provided by the "Reorganized Company" (the Company from and after May 29, 1997) and the "Predecessor Company" (the Company from July 1, 1996 through May 28, 1997), respectively. Operating activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 required the use of $171,000 in cash. Operating activities of the Reorganized Company 24 provided $341,000 in cash which was offset by the Predecessor Company which required the use of $512,000 in cash. The primary sources of cash from operations were (i) management fees which provided $8,096,000 in cash, $795,000 from the Reorganized Company and $7,301,000 from the Predecessor Company and (ii) interest income which provided $1,004,000 in cash, $89,000 from the Reorganized Company and $915,000 from the Predecessor Company. Significant adjustments to cash from operations for non-cash items for the Reorganized Company and the Predecessor Company respectively were (increase (decrease)): Depreciation and amortization - $262,000 and $735,000; Loss on early extinguishment of debt - $0 and $1,998,000; Extraordinary gain from reorganization and reorganization adjustments - $0 and ($157,418,000); Restructuring fees paid to management - $0 and $550,000; Amortization of deferred finance costs and original issue discounts - $0 and $813,000; and Gain on sale of riverboat operations - $0 and ($364,000). Changes in working capital balances were $955,000 for the Reorganized Company and $7,420,000 for the Predecessor Company. Interest payments required the use of $0 and $863,000 in cash for the Reorganized Company and the Predecessor Company respectively. Investing activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 provided a total of $3,282,000 in cash primarily from the repayment of Native American loans. The Reorganized Company received $332,000 in loan repayments while the Predecessor Company received $3,363,000 in loan repayments which was offset by a $413,000 transfer to restricted cash. Financing activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 required the use of $1,290,000 in cash and was due entirely to the repayment of equipment notes by the Predecessor Company. The Company's source of cash for the next twelve months is expected to be derived from the receipt of management fees and debt service on the Native American loans. In the event conditions arise, for whatever reasons, that cause a reduction or elimination in such sources of cash, the Company may not be able to continue operations or service its debt. Capital Requirements. The Company will continue to operate, through CGMI, the existing Muckleshoot, Tonto Apache and Umatilla casinos pursuant to the related management agreements. Absent any new developments, these three contracts, along with debt service payments on the Tribal Loans with Tonto Apache and Umatilla Tribes and cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1997 of $3,923,000, will provide the Company with its only source of cash for the approximately two and one-half years remaining on the contracts. The Company believes that these sources of cash will exceed the ongoing cash requirements for all operating expenses and general business development costs (including the Narragansett project) as well as all interest payments on the New Senior Secured Notes and principal payments on the New Senior Secured Notes, with the exception of the final principal payment of $18,480,000 due 2001. The Company expects to use any excess cash to fund new projects, although the realization of excess cash is not assured. The Company believes it will require new sources of cash beyond its existing operations in order to fund the final payment of principal on its New Senior Secured Notes in 2001. In order to complete the funding of the construction or acquisition costs any new projects or fund the construction costs of the Narragansett project, if and when a gaming facility is approved in Rhode Island, it is anticipated that the Company will require significant additional capital. The Company believes that should any new projects become available or if the gaming facility is approved for Rhode Island, the Company will have available funding through the debt and/or equity markets or alternatively though bank financing, based on the viability of the individual projects. This belief is founded on the Company's past success in developing Class III gaming facilities, the expertise of its management in the gaming industry and its favorable position of being currently licensed and/or approved by the NIGC and by several state jurisdictions. However, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available, or if available that the terms thereof will be acceptable or favorable to the Company. Given the high level of uncertainty concerning the prospects of new development projects and/or the Narragansett Tribe's ability to secure a binding compact or approval for non-compacted gaming, no financing commitments have been obtained as of the date of this filing. Further, the timing of any new capital requirements cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. 25 Default Under Amended Indenture. The Amended Indenture contemplates that certain actions of the Company require prior notice to (and in certain cases, approval from) the Advisory Committee. No proposed member of the Advisory Committee has yet executed an appropriate confidentiality agreement and, therefore no such proposed member has qualified to serve on such committee. Moreover, the Company has been notified by several state gaming regulators in States in which the Company conducts business, that the breadth and scope of the powers granted to the Advisory Committee in the Amended Indenture require that proposed members of the Advisory Committee be licensed by the appropriate gaming regulators and further that, in the absence of such licensure, actions by members of the Advisory Committee would constitute an improper circumvention of applicable licensing requirements. In the absence of a functioning Advisory Committee, the Company may not be able to enter into certain transactions or otherwise conduct its business without violating certain covenants in the Amended Indenture. The Company has been notified by the Amended Indenture Trustee that the Amended Indenture Trustee has reserved its right to assert that certain actions taken by the Company to date (including the failure of the Company to have its budget approved by the Advisory Committee) constitute a default under the Indenture. To date, however, the Amended Indenture Trustee has not delivered to the Company any notice of an Event of Default. Moreover, the Amended Indenture Trustee has notified the Company that it has been directed by a majority in principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to forebear from taking any action to accelerate the New Senior Secured Notes until November 14, 1997, during which time the Company will have an opportunity to cure any such default. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with Counsel and Noteholders representing a majority of Noteholders for the purpose of amending the Amended Indenture to affect solely the rights, duties and powers of the Advisory Committee and provide for an Advisory Committee with the authority to approve the Company's budget but without the need for Advisory Committee members to be licensed as required by gaming regulators or the possible elimination of the Advisory Committee concept from the Indenture altogether. The Amended Indenture Trustee, the majority of Noteholders and the Company believe it is probable that the parties will be able to amend the Amended Indenture to cure the default by November 14, 1997. There is no assurance, however, that a satisfactory resolution of this matter can be achieved. In the absence of a satisfactory resolution, the Amended Indenture Trustee would elect to declare an Event of Default in which case the New Senior Secured Notes could be accelerated and the Amended Indenture Trustee could seek to enforce its rights under the Amended Indenture, including foreclosing on its collateral. 26 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview The following discussion about the Company's results of operations includes the Company, CGMI, and CDGC. It also includes CCCD until May 23, 1996, the date on which all of the shares of CCCD were sold to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Casino Magic Corporation. The results of operations of CCCD for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, includes its 50% interest in losses of River City Joint Venture, a general partnership whose other equal partner was Grand Palais Riverboat, Inc. (then a wholly owned subsidiary of Hemmeter Enterprises, Inc.). On the Petition Date, the Company, apart from its subsidiaries, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On the Petition Date, the Company filed its Plan of Reorganization. As contemplated by the Plan of Reorganization, on the Effective Date, the Company emerged from Chapter 11 and consummated the Plan of Reorganization. On the Effective Date, upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company adopted fresh-start reporting as required by AICPA Statement of Position 90-7. Under fresh-start reporting, all assets and liabilities were restated to reflect their reorganization value which represents the fair value of the entities under Reorganization. As a result of adopting fresh-start reporting, the consolidated financial statements of the Reorganized Company are not comparable with those of the Predecessor Company prepared before the Effective Date. In addition to the Plan of Reorganization, and in furthering its strategy of reducing operating expenses, the Company's Board of Directors approved an informal Business Plan for Consolidating Operations (the "Business Plan"). The Business Plan called for the closure of the Company's New Jersey headquarters offices and the relocation of the Company's headquarters to its current Phoenix, Arizona offices, thereby gaining substantial efficiencies of operations, better communications amongst management and significant reductions in staffing and administrative costs on a prospective basis. As a consequence of the implementation of its Business Plan, and the resultant consolidation of operations, the Company effected a change in the method used to distribute operating expenses among the Company and its subsidiaries. Effective in June 1997, all staffing costs (with the exception of officers of the Company), selling, general and administrative expenses of the Company are charged to CGMI as the primary operating entity of the Company. The Company's officers payroll and public company general and administrative expenses are charged to the Company. CDGC continues to be charged with the expenses relating to the development of the Narragansett project. Accordingly, the results of operations for each of the entities of the reorganized Company are not necessarily comparable to that of the predecessor Company. As such, the following discussion of the results of operations for Fiscal 1997 as compared to Fiscal 1996 is presented on a consolidated basis only, with information about an individual entity provided where necessary. FISCAL 1997 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1996 As a consequence of the Company's fresh-start accounting, reporting for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, is accomplished by combining the results of operations for the Reorganized Company (May 29, 1997 through June 30, 1997) and the Predecessor Company (July 1, 1996 through May 28, 1997). 27 The following table sets forth certain key elements of the results of operations for the combined periods discussed above: Reorganized Predecessor Company Company ------------------------------------------------------ May 29, 1997 - July 1, 1996- Fiscal Fiscal June 30, 1997 May 28, 1997 1997 (1) 1996 REVENUES: Management Fees 753,000 7,447,000 8,200,000 7,663,000 COSTS & EXPENSES Salaries, Wages & Related 188,000 1,818,000 2,006,000 2,862,000 Native American Develop Costs 532,000 1,910,000 2,442,000 1,899,000 Professional Fees 469,000 1,387,000 1,856,000 1,795,000 General & Administrative 470,000 1,388,000 1,858,000 2,034,000 Depreciation & Amortization 262,000 735,000 997,000 940,000 TOTAL COSTS & EXPENSES 1,921,000 7,238,000 9,159,000 14,441,000 (LOSS) INCOME FROM OPERATIONS (1,168,000) 209,000 (959,000) (6,778,000) REORGANIZATION ITEMS (EXPENSE) -- 50,805,000 50,805,000 (600,000) OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) Interest Income 83,000 875,000 958,000 1,959,000 Interest Expense (251,000) (7,842,000) (8,093,000) (19,062,000) (LOSS) INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAX (1,336,000) 44,411,000 43,075,000 (3,718,000) PROVISION FOR INCOME TAX (15,000) (123,000) (138,000) (321,000) (LOSS) INCOME BEFORE EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS (1,351,000) 44,288,000 42,937,000 (4,039,000) EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS: Loss on Early Extinguishment of debt -- (1,998,000) (1,998,000) -- Gain from Reorganization -- 103,464,000 103,464,000 -- NET (LOSS) INCOME (1,351,000) 145,754,000 144,403,000 (4,039,000) (1) Reorganized Company and Predecessor Company combined. Loss From Operations Loss from operations for the year ended June 30, 1997 amounted to $959,000 as compared to $6,778,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996, a decrease of $5,819,000 or 85.6%. This decrease in loss from operations is comprised of (i) an increase in revenues of $537,000, (ii) a decrease in operating expenses of $379,000 and (iii) reduction in the costs of the riverboat operations of $4,903,000. The loss from operations of the Reorganized Company was $1,168,000 for the period May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997. This loss includes certain one-time charges, accruals and reserves of about $1,255,000 relating to professional fees, Plan implementation costs, development costs, office consolidation, insurance and taxes. 28 Revenues Revenues for the year ended June 30, 1997, comprised primarily of CGMI's management fees from the Company's three managed Class III gaming facilities amounted to $8,200,000, an increase of $537,000 or 7.0% over the year ended June 30, 1996. The following table sets forth the comparison between Fiscal 1997 and Fiscal 1996 by facility: Facility 1997 1996 Inc(Dec) % Cow Creek 0 618,000 (618,000) (100.0%) Muckleshoot Casino 2,360,000 2,038,000 322,000 15.8% Muckleshoot Bingo (92,000) (197,000) 105,000 53.3% Tonto Apache 2,055,000 1,961,000 94,000 4.8% Umatilla 3,866,000 3,210,000 656,000 20.4% Miscellaneous 11,000 33,000 (22,000) (66.7%) Note: Revenues for Cow Creek are through August 1995 and; Muckleshoot Bingo are through September 1996 The increase in management fees is due primarily to the strong financial performance of each of Company's managed facilities. In comparison to Fiscal 1996, Fiscal 1997 total revenues were higher for each facility by the following percentages: Muckleshoot - 10.3%; Tonto Apache - 3.3% and; Umatilla - 12.0%. Operating performance of each of -the three facilities for Fiscal 1997, as measured by their EBITDA margins were: Muckleshoot - 47.8%; Tonto Apache - 52.0% and; Umatilla - 54.9%. The Company anticipates the continued strong performance of each of the managed facilities. Interest income for the year ended June 30, 1997 was $958,000 which represented a $1,001,000 or 51.1% decline from June 30, 1996 levels. Approximately $464,000 of the decrease is due to the pay down of the Tribal loans with the remainder of the decrease of $507,000 due to a lower average balance of cash for Fiscal 1997 as compared to 1996. Additionally, approximately $30,000 in interest income is included in Reorganization Items. Costs and Expenses Salaries, wages and related costs for the year ended June 30, 1997 were $2,006,000. This represents a decrease of $856,000 or 29.9% and is due directly to the Company's efforts to reduce operating expenses. Native American development Costs increased $543,000 or 28.6% from $1,899,000 to $2,442,000 for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997 respectively. By reporting entity Native American development costs were: Entity 1997 1996 Inc(Dec) % CGII $ 141,000 $862,000 $ (722,000) (83.8%) CDGC 2,190,000 951,000 1,239,000 130.3% CGMI 112,000 86,000 26,000 30.2% Development costs for CGII and CGDC for both Fiscal 1997 and 1996 were primarily for the benefit of the Narragansett Tribe in Rhode Island. The increase in Rhode Island development costs is due primarily to increased activity in attempting to further the Tribe's position toward an approved Compact. As of June 30, 1997 the cumulative expenditures on the Rhode Island project is approximately $8.7 million. About $7.4 million is expected to be recoverable by the Company if and when a gaming facility is established by the Narragansett Tribe. The Company's management expects that Fiscal 1998 funding of the Narragansett project will not approach Fiscal 1997 levels, however, the actual level of required funding cannot be reasonably estimated at this time due to the uncertainty of the process. Professional fees (primarily legal) increased $61,000 or 3.4% to $1,856,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the year ended June 30, 1996. Of the total increase, $368,000 was attributable to CGMI which was offset by a $307,000 decrease in CGII. The decrease in the Company was due to the sale and closure of the riverboat operations in Fiscal 1996 while the increase in CGMI was due primarily to increased legal costs in protecting certain contractual claims and professional fees for consultants used to service the existing contracts. General and administrative costs for the year ended June 30, 1997 were $1,858,000, which included a reserve of about $120,000 for office relocation costs and about a $75,000 write-off of F,F&E related to the implementation of the Business Plan. This represents a decrease of $176,000 or 8.7% and is due directly to the Company's efforts to reduce operating expenses. 29 Depreciation and amortization expenses were $997,000 and $940,000 for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 respectively. The Fiscal 1997 amount includes one month amortization of the excess reorganization cost of $193,000 and is offset by about $120,000 in reduced amortization of deferred contract charges from the termination of the Muckleshoot Bingo and Cow Creek contracts. Reorganization adjustments included in Reorganization Items for the year ended June 30, 1997 were comprised of: Legal Professional Fees $(1,716,000) Interest Income 30,000 Write-off of Goodwill (405,000) Excess Reorganization Value 9,265,000 Adjustments to Capital Stock 37,217,000 Adjustment to Paid in Capital 7,877,000 ----------- Total $52,268,000 Reorganization fees paid to management included in Reorganization Items amounted to $1,463,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. According to the Plan of Reorganization, this was comprised of (i) $900,000 from the discontinuance and sale of the riverboat operation in New Orleans, (ii) $550,000 in New Senior Secured Notes, and (iii) $13,000 in New Common Stock grants. Interest Expense Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1997 is comprised of the following: (i) Old Senior Secured Notes - $5,929,000, (ii) New Senior Secured Notes - $251,000, (iii) amortization of original issue discount and deferred finance charges - $813,000, (iv) Republic Note Payable - $1,050,000 and, (v) CGMI equipment notes - $50,000, for a total of $8,093,000. Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1996 is comprised of the following: (i) Old Senior Secured Notes - $14,605,000, (ii) amortization of original issue discount and deferred finance charges - $2,173,000, (iii) Republic Note Payable - $2,185,000 and, (iv) CGMI equipment notes - $99,000, for a total of $19,062,000. Income Taxes As discussed in "Business - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards", management of the Company believes that the Company and its subsidiaries possesses Net NOLs as of June 30, 1997 of approximately $31.5 million for federal income tax purposes after taking into account the reorganization of the Company pursuant to the Plan and assuming that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies, although no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to utilize these NOLs. See "Risk Factors - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards". For financial statement purposes, a deferred tax benefit with respect to such NOLs could not be recorded on the balance sheet of the Company because any realization of the NOLs cannot be assured at this time and the amount cannot be estimated. Extraordinary Items The loss on early extinguishment of debt of $1,998,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997, represents the accelerated write-off of original issue discounts and deferred finance charges on the Old Senior Secured Notes paid as a result of the closure and sale of the riverboat operations. The gain from reorganization items of $103,464,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 represents the following: Write-off Deferred Finance Costs and Original Issue Discounts $ (4,311,000) Record New Notes in exchange for old debt (23,100,000) Record New Notes issued to management included in Reorganization Items 550,000 Reduce Liabilities Subject to Compromise to zero 130,325,000 ------------ Total $103,464,000 30 FISCAL 1996 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1995 Consolidated The year ended June 30, 1996 resulted in a net loss from operations of $4,039,000, (.21 per share). This compares with losses from the same period ended June 30, 1995 of $116,876,000 and $833,000, representing results from operations and extraordinary items respectively. The losses from operations for the year ended June 30, 1996 are substantially attributable to the interest expense related to the Company's secured and unsecured debt and to operations of since sold Riverboat subsidiary. The net decrease of $112,837,000 in the loss from operations is attributable to (i) a decrease in loss of approximately $101,000,000 due to the closing and sale of the Company's riverboat gaming subsidiary, (ii) a decrease in total costs of $9,342,000 due to the Company's downsizing and significant cost reduction efforts and reduction in general and administrative costs and development expenses, and (iii) increased management fees at CGMI of $1,222,000 plus a fee of $3,000,000 related to the buy-out of the Cow Creek management contract, a gain from the sale of an investment of $221,000 offset by reduced interest income of $660,000 and increased interest expense of $836,000 and income taxes of $321,000. The year ended June 30, 1995 reflects essentially a period of accelerated activities in preparation for opening of the New Orleans riverboat and several Native American gaming facilities under management. The year ended June 30, 1996 conversely reflects the winding down of New Orleans operations and scaled back levels due to the cessation of operations and restructuring and sale of CCCD. Management fees for the comparative year increased $1,222,000. Revenues of the year ended June 30, 1995 include approximately $3,699,000 in fees earned from the Cow Creek contract, comprising 57.4% of total revenues for that period, the other revenues were primarily derived from Class II facilities and approximately $445,000 from one temporary Class III facility. The fees from Cow Creek in the year ended June 30, 1996 amounted to $618,000 and represented only two months of operations before the buy-out. During this period, CGMI managed three other Class III facilities for all twelve months which produced management fees of $7,045,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The losses attributable to riverboat operations for the year ended June 30, 1996 of $4,903,000 include various carrying costs of $1,240,000, bankruptcy-related attorney fees of $2,192,000 and expenses of the joint venture of $1,262,000. These items were $14,050,000 lower than the loss from the year ended June 30, 1995 of $18,954,000 which was represented by various pre-opening costs in preparation of the opening of the Riverboat. Additionally, interest expense of $210,000 was incurred related to DIP financings. The gain on the sale of the CCCD subsidiary included in operations was $17,542,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 compared to a writedown of assets of $69,277,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995. Interest income decreased $661,000 to $1,959,000 from the year ended June 30, 1996 due to large amounts of interest earning funds still on hand at June 30, 1995 for construction costs. Total interest expense increased from the year ended June 30, 1995 due to $1,474,000 in interest capitalized during that period offset by interest saved subsequent to the extinguishment of $8,000,000 in Old Senior Secured Notes on March 31, 1995. Additionally, interest expense on equipment financings at CGMI was not predominantly present at June 30, 1996. Capital Gaming Management, Inc. (CGMI) On March 10, 1995, the Umatilla Tribe opened the 40,000 square foot Wildhorse Gaming Resort in Pendleton, Oregon. This facility, under management by the Company offers video slot machines, keno, non-banking table games, OTB and high stakes bingo. The first phase of this development opened on November 5, 1994. During the periods ending June 30, 1996 and 1995 the facility produced approximately $3,210,000 and $1,365,000 respectively in management fees for the Company. Slot win represents approximately 85% of total revenues of this facility compared to over 90% for the fiscal year ending 1995. 31 On April 27, 1995, the Tonto Apache Tribe opened the 35,000 square foot Mazatzal Casino located north of Phoenix, Arizona. The casino features slot machines, keno, non-banking table games and high stakes bingo. The Company, as manager of the casino, collected approximately $1,961,000 and $305,000 in management fees for the period ending June 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. Slot win, comprised approximately 87% of the facility's total receivables in 1996 and 88% in 1995. The Muckleshoot Tribe opened the first phase of its Muckleshoot Casino on April 28, 1995. The final phase of this facility consisting of approximately 65,000 square feet opened on September 8, 1995 and presently offers table games, poker games, keno, pulltabs and OTB. The facility is located in the Seattle-Tacoma metropolitan area. The Company as manager of the facility collected approximately $2,038,000 and $615,000 for the years ending June 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. Table games comprised about 79% and 78% of the total facility revenues for the years ending June 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Cow Creek Management Contract was terminated in exchange for a payment of $3,000,000. The Cow Creek facility generated an additional $618,000 in management fees during the year ended June 30,1996. Total management fees for the years ended June 30,1996 and 1995 were approximately $7,663,000 and $6,441,000 respectively. During the year ended June 30, 1996 there were approximately $5,986,000 in fees from Class III gaming facility operations and approximately $455,000 in fees from the two remaining Class II gaming management agreements which expired before June 30, 1995. CGMI's management fees of $7,663,000 and $6,441,000 for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were sufficient to produce income from operations of approximately $5,262,000 and $700,000 respectively. Interest income was also earned from tribal loans of $1,332,000 and $844,000. The income from operations includes a one time charge in September 1994 of approximately $1,017,000 for the write down of assets related to a severed Class II gaming management contract. Salaries and wages for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 decreased by approximately $950,000 based on a decrease in full time equivalent employees of approximately 70%. Legal and professional costs decreased by approximately $750,000 from prior year levels primarily due to a reduction of development and pre-opening activities. General and administrative costs totaled approximately $604,000 for CGMI's year ended June 30, 1996 and are primarily composed of employee benefits costs of $112,000, travel costs of $175,000, and office and other administrative costs of $317,000. All of these costs were reduced substantially from prior year levels due to the decrease in costs associated with opening facilities in prior years, among other reasons. Gaming development activities decreased approximately $82,000 to approximately $95,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. Capital Gaming International, Inc. (CGII) The Company incurred operating costs and expenses of approximately $6,571,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 as compared to approximately $13,845,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995. Debt restructuring costs increased by $600,000 and represent fees owed to the Company's financial advisors. The Company realized significant cost decreases in development ($665,000), administrative costs including advertising ($1,514,000), payroll costs ($868,000), professional fees ($4,232,000), public company costs($452,000), travel costs ($570,000), and other operating costs ($336,000). Some of these cost reductions were absorbed by the CDGC subsidiary 32 (see below). Cost reductions came as a result of substantial reductions in overhead, significant reductions in the costs associated with managing CCCD, reduced development efforts including the Company's termination of its efforts to acquire certain real estate on Philadelphia's Delaware River Waterfront in connection with the potential development of a gaming facility, and other similar matters. Some of these cost reductions were offset by an increase in costs related to the Company's marketing services agreement with HFS, Inc. Costs associated with this agreement actually increased by approximately $628,000 during the year ended June 30, 1996. However, the Company is in default on this agreement and has not paid approximately $763,000 in connection thereto and does not anticipate paying these costs going forward. Payroll and related costs amounted to approximately $2,250,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 as compared to approximately $3,120,000 in the prior fiscal period. The decrease in payroll costs was a result of the reduction in the number of employees, reduced bonus payments and a reduction in wage related taxes and benefits. Native American Development costs incurred by the Company of approximately $862,000 were primarily for the benefit of the Narragansett Tribe in pursuing the development of gaming in Rhode Island. In addition, CDGC incurred cost toward this development of $951,000. These combined costs of $1,822,000 decreased by $147,000 as compared to approximately $1,969,000 in the last fiscal period. The decrease is primarily from engineering costs associated with development. As of June 30, 1996, the cumulative investment expended on the Narragansett project exceeded $6.5 million. A substantial amount of this spending will be repaid to the Company if and when a gaming facility is established by the Narragansett Tribe. Interest Expense - Consolidated Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1996 is comprised of the following: (i) Old Senior Secured Notes $14,605,000, (ii) amortization of original issue discount and deferred finance charges of $2,173,000, (iii) Republic Note Payable $2,185,000 and (iv) CGMI equipment notes $99,000 for a total of $19,062,000. Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1995 is comprised of the following: (i) Old Senior Secured Notes $15,295,000, (ii) amortization of original issue discount and deferred finance charges - $2,119,000, (iii) Republic Note Payable - $2,185,000 and (iv) CGMI equipment notes - $99,000 for a total of $19,698,000,. The Company capitalized interest of approximately $1,474,000 during the year. Extraordinary Item The early extinguishment of debt on March 30, 1995 resulted in a loss of approximately $833,000 as a result of the value of the Old Common Stock issued, in exchange for $8,000,000 of Old Senior Secured Notes, exceeding the carrying amount of notes. The carrying amount was inclusive of $238,000 and $504,000 of unamortized amortized original issue discount deferred finance charges, respectively, which was written-off with the related debt. Income Taxes For the year ended June 30, 1994, the Company recorded a federal tax benefit of approximately $484,000 based on the use of available net operating losses carried back to prior years. Such benefit was received by the Company during the year ended June 30, 1995. As discussed in "Description of Business - - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards", management of the Company believes that the Company and its subsidiaries possess Net NOLs as of June 30, 1997 of approximately $31.5 million for federal income tax purposes after taking into account the reorganization of the Company pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and assuming that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies, although no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to utilize these NOLs. See "Risk Factors - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards". For financial statement purposes, a deferred tax benefit with respect to such NOLs could not be recorded on the balance sheet of the Company because any realization of the NOLs cannot be assured at this time and the amount cannot be estimated. 33 Crescent City Capital Development Corp. (CCCD) The CCCD riverboat opened on April 4, 1995, four days after the debut of the Grand Palais riverboat and the River City terminal and pavilion. On June 9, 1995, the Company's riverboat casino operations in New Orleans was forced to cease operations due primarily to significant revenue shortfalls which contributed to operating losses that the Company could not continue to fund. Subsequent to the closing of the riverboat, the Board of Directors believed it was necessary to seek an acquiror for the riverboat vessel and its gaming equipment contents. The operations of CCCD for the year ended June 30, 1996 consist of the following: Legal fees $(2,192,000) Equity in Loss of RCJV (1,262,000) Other reorganization items (1,240,000) Interest Income 11,000 Interest Expense (220,000) ----------- Net (Loss) $(4,903,000) The assets of CCCD were sold for $50,000,000 which gave rise to a gain of $17,542,000.

In the event of the death or disability of Col. Pagano, compensation will continue for a period of six months following the occurrence of such an event. On November 1, 1995, Col. Pagano voluntarily agreed to defer and accrue $160,000 per year of his $260,000 per year salary until such time as he notified the Company otherwise. Col. Pagano's entire deferred salary was treated under the Plan of Reorganization as a $4,000 priority claim with the balance treated as a general unsecured claim. Additionally, on October 1, 1996 Col. Pagano's employment agreement was amended to provide for an annual salary of $100,000 and a term of three years from the Effective Date. In connection with the amendment, all other terms of Col.

Runyon. The Company expects that Richard Mallery will be added should he accept the Company's nomination. The Executive Compensation Committee is responsible for setting all Company policies with respect to compensation of executive officers and directors, as well as for determining changes to the compensation level of such officers and directors. Mr. Runyon is a consultant to the Company for all compensation related matters. During Mr. Runyon's career, he has served as an officer to such corporations at ITT Corporation, ITT Grinnell, BP Oil Corporation and F. W. Woolworth in the area of organization, business planning and administration. Mr. Runyon presently serves as a member of the Board of directors and consultant to several corporations and provides consulting services in the areas of strategy, business planning, human resources and administrative systems. Mr. Mallery is a senior partner of the law firm Snell and Wilmer which has served as special counsel to the Company from time to time. Mr. Mallery is an experienced transactional attorney with expertise in Native American gaming. The Company is not aware of any relationship whereby (i) an executive officer of the Company served as a member of the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of the Company; (ii) an executive officer of the Company served as a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of such committee, the entire board) of the Company; or (iii) an executive officer of the Company served as a member of the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director of the Company. THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM Report from Board of Directors on Executive Compensation This report is furnished by the Board of Directors of the Company. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, management of the Company spent significant time and energies preparing for and completing its reorganization proceedings. The Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors did not meet or issue any reports in fiscal 1997. Accordingly, compensation paid to executive officers of the Company was determined by certain past and present Board Directors who did not receive any bonuses or salary increases (with affected Directors abstaining). In reaching its determinations, the Board of Directors relied in part on the Executive Compensation Program prepared by Runyon and Associates ("Runyon") in June 1995 as well as a fairness opinion on success bonus awards prepared by Runyon in May 1996 as well as input from the Company's Noteholder's Advisory Committee. It is the objective of the Company's Executive Compensation Program to develop, implement and manage a total executive compensation strategy that will enable the Company to attract, motivate and sustain a superior organization, as measured by the highest quality and performance standards, at a cost that is fully competitive in the target marketplaces. The Executive Compensation Program is further designed to enhance stockholder value, motivate and attract superior executive officers to achieve long-term business goals and provide compensation opportunities which are competitive and align the interests of executive officers with the long-term interests of stockholders through award opportunities that can result in ownership of common stock. The specific elements of the Executive Compensation Program, including the specific business purpose of each program component, is as follows: 41 1. Base Salary This compensation is to bring to, and retain within the Company, the technical, professional, industry knowledge, integrity, licensure and skills required to operate the business competitively in the marketplace. 2. Benefits In conjunction with base salary, benefits retain basic capabilities and help maintain a competitive organization. Careful planning as to the cost effectiveness of each benefit provided is a part of the program. 3. Perquisites Careful consideration to cost effectiveness of perquisites is a priority of the Executive Compensation Committee and the goal of any perquisites provided is to reduce stress in the working environment to executives whose personal time is often sacrificed to job demands. 4. Short-Term (Annual) Incentives This variable element of the Executive Compensation Program focuses on the achievement of specific near-term objectives. Measurements are in terms of performance to plans and expectations which can be quantified and qualified. Incentive rewards are more a result of quantitative value building than perceived value increase, although sound quantitative growth is the ultimate goal. 5. Long-Term Incentives The goal of long-term incentives is the creation, development and growth of an entity that increases in value, both quantitatively and perceived, and demonstrates in real time the ability to generate superior profits and profitability. Success under this criteria is best measured by stock market valuation, over time, and incentive remuneration to the executive is weighted towards equity appreciation. COMPENSATION POLICIES APPLICABLE TO EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND BASES FOR CEO COMPENSATION The fiscal years ending 1997 and 1996 represented a difficult time for the Company and its executive officers. With the closure of the River City Joint Venture in June, 1995 and the resultant default on the Company's Old Secured Notes, critical to the Company's survival was the ability to successfully sell and reorganize its CCCD subsidiary and recover maximum value in a hostile business and regulatory climate, preserve the operations of the Company's Indian gaming subsidiary, CGMI, as well as continue to develop the Narragansett Project through the CDGC subsidiary, negotiate and complete a successful restructuring of the parent company and accomplish all of the above with a significantly reduced executive staffing level. Continued employment of key executives and incentivized performance was a critical component of the application of the Company's compensation policies in order to achieve these essential tasks and position the Company for future growth. In May, 1996 the Board of Directors of the Company requested a fairness opinion on success bonus awards from Runyon. The subject of the report was to analyze and provide an objective opinion on the prevalence, appropriateness, fairness and structure of success fees, stay in place fees and/or consummation bonuses in the context of business reorganizations primarily arising from the bankruptcy process. This report concluded that management of the Company took the prompt, prudent actions necessary to not only recover substantially more financial assets from the reorganization of the CCCD subsidiary than normally would have been possible, 42 but moreover preserved existing operations and positioned the Company for a successful but difficult parent reorganization. The report further found that in weighing the major contributions of management, the successful conversion of CCCD's assets to substantial cash for the Company would, in and of itself, warrant a significant success fee. The report additionally found that as favorable a financial impact as such conversion represented, it would be exceeded in the long run by the financial productivity of a viable, competitive business enterprise. Based on the methodology contained in the report for weighing these various relevant factors, the report concluded that the reasonable range for the award of a success bonus, verified by consensus both within bankruptcy environments, and in the course of normal business conduct as fair and equitable to both executive management and debt/equity holders, was within $1,100,000 to $1,665,000. Similarly, using a valuation of the contributions made by management based on profitability, an award of $1,030,000 to S1,548,000 was found to be reasonable. Finally, the report concluded that the bonus pool ultimately created by the Board of Directors be distributed by the Board of Directors to the principal contributors to the reorganization. The actual payments made to the Company's executive officers on the date hereof is contained in this Item 11 - Summary Compensation Table. STOCK PRICE PERFORMANCE COMPARISON The following graph compares cumulative total return of the Company's Common Stock (the Old Common Stock and the New Common Stock taking into account the conversion ratio pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization) with the cumulative total return of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index and a peer group selected in good faith by the Company. The Company selected a composite of small cap gaming common stocks for the industry peer group comparison. These stocks include Aztar Corporation, Grand Casinos and Showboat, Inc. equally weighted.

Phoenix, Arizona We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Capital Gaming International, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity [deficit], and cash flows for the period May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997, the period July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997, and for each of the two fiscal years in the period ended June 30, 1996. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Capital Gaming International, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the period May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997, the period July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997, and for each of the two fiscal years in the period ended June 30, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As more fully described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective May 29, 1997, the Company emerged from bankruptcy. In accordance with an American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position, the Company has adopted "fresh start" reporting whereby its assets, liabilities and new capital structure have been adjusted to reflect estimated fair values as of May 28, 1997. As a result, the consolidated financial statements for the period subsequent to May 28, 1997, reflect this basis of reporting and are not comparable to the Company's prereorganization consolidated financial statements.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES OF NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES: The Company capitalized interest of $1,473,522 during the year ended June 30, 1995 related to the construction of the riverboat. On March 31, 1995, the Company exchanged 1,961,290 shares of Common Stock for $8,000,000 principal amount of Senior Secured Notes outstanding. The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, CGMI, secured equipment financing of $3,355,745 on behalf of the Native American Tribes whose facilities the Company manages. Such amount is also included in the balance of Native American Loans Receivable at June 30, 1995. In May 1996, the Company sold all the outstanding common stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, CCCD for $50,000,000, plus assumptions of equipment liabilities of $6,500,000. The Company received cash of $15,000,000, a note for $35,000,000 and Casino Magic assumed equipment Notes of $6,500,000. In May 1996, the Company, as guarantor, assumed the liability from CCCD of the bank note payable of $2,000,000 to FNBC. On July 29, 1996, the Indenture Trustee for the Company's Senior Secured Noteholders distributed an aggregate of $49,986,000 in cash and Purchaser's Notes to the Senior Secured Noteholders on account of principal and accrued interest ("Noteholder Distribution"). The Noteholder Distribution included $28,000,000 in Purchaser's Notes, as well as cash from the sale of CCCD and CMC, proceeds from the early payment of the development loan to the Muckleshoot Tribe, proceeds from the buyout of the Cow Creek contract, $3,200,000 in unused restricted cash and other sources. Subsequently, in August 1996 the Purchaser's Notes were redeemed by CMC at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest. The remainder of $413,000 was held in a cash escrow account by the trustee of the Company's Senior Secured Noteholders. F-10 CAPITAL GAMING INTERNATIONAL, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND REORGANIZATION UNDER CHAPTER 11 The Company Capital Gaming International, Inc. (the "Company"), together with its subsidiaries, is a multi-jurisdictional gaming company with gaming management interests with Native American Tribes in several states. The management of Native American gaming facilities is conducted through Capital Gaming Management, Inc. ("CGMI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The development of the Narragansett Casino project is conducted through Capital Development Gaming Corp. ("CDGC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company is also active in seeking new opportunities in Native American Gaming and secondary gaming market jurisdictions. In order to enter the Native American, riverboat, dockside casino or any other aspect of the gaming industry, the Company will be subject to regulation by each state in which it conducts business, and to a certain extent under Federal, Tribal and (in some cases) state law with respect to Native American gaming. In jurisdictions where gaming has recently been legalized, gaming cannot begin until a licensing and regulatory framework is promulgated and regulatory commissions are appointed, staffed and funded. The regulatory framework adopted by any jurisdiction may impose delays in licensure, restrictions or costs that would materially detract from the profitability of gaming operations. The Company must obtain a gaming license for each location where it will operate or manage a gaming casino, and each of the Company's officers, directors, managers and principal shareholders are subject to strict scrutiny and approval of the gaming commission or other regulatory body of each state in which the Company may conduct gaming operations. In addition, gaming on Native American lands is extensively regulated, and the terms and conditions of management contracts must be approved by the Tribes and certain regulatory entities. Changes in the interests of principals must be approved, and the Company and certain of its principals must be licensed, by Tribal and in some cases, state authorities. There can be no assurance that the Company or any of its key personnel will obtain the requisite licenses and approvals of the various state and Tribal gaming commissions and the National Indian Gaming Commission ("NIGC") in a timely fashion, if at all. The Company must also obtain liquor licenses from state regulatory agencies for each of its proposed operations. Rules and regulations in this regard are strict and the loss of such licenses is possible for regulatory violations. The loss or suspension of a liquor license could significantly impact a licensee's operations. Local building, health and fire codes and similar regulations could also impact the Company's operations. Violations of any such statutes, codes or regulations could have a material adverse impact on the financial condition or operations of the Company. The Company's CGMI subsidiary currently manages and operates three Native American gaming facilities, which CGMI has developed or expanded into Class III gaming facilities. o Muckelshoot Tribe - Auburn, Washington (Class III facility became operational in April 1995) o Tonto Apache Tribe - Payson, Arizona (Class III facility became operational in April 1995) o Umatilla Tribes - Pendleton, Oregon (Class III facility became operational in March 1995) The Company's CDGC subsidiary has a management and development contract with the Narragansett Tribe for the development of a Class III gaming facility in Charlestown, Rhode Island.

("CCCD"), was a 50% partner with Grand Palais Inc. in a River City Joint Venture ("RCJV"), a general partnership formed to develop and operate two riverboats in New Orleans, Louisiana. The joint venture, which was accounted for on the equity method, was terminated in July 1995. The Company's riverboat, the Crescent City Queen, opened on April 4, 1995. On June 9, 1995, the riverboat casino operations in New Orleans was forced to cease due primarily to significant revenue shortfalls which resulted in operating losses that the Company could not continue to fund. On July 26, 1995, CCCD was involuntarily petitioned for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. On July 28, 1995, the petition was changed to a voluntary filing. On October 13, 1996, CCCD filed a Plan of Reorganization (the "January Plan") under Chapter 11 which was confirmed on January 12, 1996. The January Plan was predicated upon an agreement (the "MRI Agreement") to sell CCCD to Mirage Resorts, Inc. ("Mirage") for $55,000,000 plus the assumption of certain equipment liabilities of up to $6,500,000. The sale was contingent upon certain waivers and conditions being achieved on or before January 24, 1996. On January 24, 1996, Mirage announced that conditions to the closing of the purchase were not satisfied by the contractual deadline and terminated the MRI Agreement. On February 21, 1996, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the "CMC Agreement") with Casino Magic Corp. ("CMC") to transfer the ownership of CCCD and substantially all of its assets to a wholly-owned subsidiary of CMC. An Amended Plan of Reorganization (the "Amended Plan"), which was predicated upon the CMC Agreement, was filed by CCCD and was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on April 29, 1996. On May 13, 1996, the Company completed the sale of CCCD for an aggregate purchase price of $56,500,000, consisting of $15,000,000 in cash, Purchaser Notes of $35,000,000, and the assumption of up to $6,500,000 in certain equipment liabilities. The Purchaser Notes, due no later than May 13, 1999, had an interest rate of 11-1/2% per annum, payable quarterly beginning August 13, 1996, and was guaranteed by CMC. The Purchaser Notes were paid in full on July 29, 1996. For the period ended May 28, 1997, the Company recorded a gain on the disposal of the riverboat gaming asset of $364,000 which represented an adjustment to the carrying value of liabilities relative to the sale. For the year ended June 30, 1996, the Company recorded costs of operations of the riverboat gaming facility of $4,903,000, which included (i) legal fees of $2,192,000, (ii) equity in loss of the RVJV of $1,262,000, (iii) other reorganization items of $1,240,000, (iv) interest income of $11,000 and, (v) interest expense of $220,000. Additionally, the Company recorded a gain on sale of the riverboat gaming assets of $17,542,000. For the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company recorded revenues from the riverboat gaming facility of $4,196,000, operating costs of $15,682,000, preopening expenses of $7,906,000, interest income of $674,000 and interest expense of $236,000, which resulted in a net operating loss of $18,954,000. Additionally, the Company recorded costs from the disposal of the riverboat gaming asset of $69,277,000, which included (i) charge for impaired assets of $38,500,000, (ii) cash held in escrow of $2,200,000, (iii) prepaid rent of $4,800,000 and (iv) wirte-off of acquired gaming assets of $23,725,000. Funds Held By Trustee for Old Senior Secured Noteholders As of June 30, 1996, approximately $22,500,000 was reflected as a contra-liability to the Old Senior Secured Notes and represented cash held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Old Senior Secured Noteholders against obligations owed by the Company to the Noteholders. The obligations included approximately $124,000,000 in Old Senior Secured Notes, a consent fee note payable of $1,350,000 and accrued interest of approximately $20,700,000. In addition, the Trustee held $28,000,000 in Purchaser Notes due from CMC as a result of the sale of CCCD which was reflected as notes receivable of $35,000,000 and accrued expenses of $7,000,000. On July 29, 1996, the Trustee distributed to the Old Senior Secured Noteholders, an aggregate of approximately $50,000,000, consisting of $28,000,000 in Purchaser Notes and approximately $22,000,000 in cash. The remaining $500,000 was held in escrow to indemnify CMC for any undisclosed liabilities arising from the sale of CCCD. Term Note Payable As of June 30, 1996, $19,000,000 was reflected as a term note payable. The Note was executed as an unsecured promissory note Payable to Republic Corporate Services, Inc. in connection with the buy-out, by the Company, of Republic's profit interest in CCCD. The note, was due April 26, 2002, with interest paid semi-annually at rate on of 11.5% per annum. F-12 Bank Line of Credit As of June 30, 1996, $2,000,000 was reflected as a Bank Line of Credit. This represented a the draw down in April 1995 of a credit line entered into between CCCD and First National Bank of Commerce on March 28, 1995, and guaranteed by the Company. The credit line was for the construction of the riverboat gaming facility. The Bank Line of Credit was due June 27, 1997 and had an interest rate of prime plus 2%. Reorganization On December 23, 1996 (the "Petition Date"), Capital Gaming International, Inc., apart from its subsidiaries, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Camden, New Jersey (the "Court"). The petition did not involve the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company operated as a debtor-in-possession until March 19, 1997 when its Plan (as defined below) was confirmed by the Court. As a debtor-in-possession, the Company was authorized to operate its business but could not engage in transactions outside its ordinary course of business without the approval of the Court. Subject to certain exceptions under the code, the Company's Reorganization Proceedings automatically enjoined the continuation of any judicial or administrative proceedings against the Company. Any creditor actions to obtain possession of or control over property of the Company or to create, perfect or enforce any lien against the property of the Company were also enjoined. As a result, the creditors of the Company were precluded from collecting pre-petition debts without the approval of the Court. On the Petition Date, the Company filed a pre-negotiated Plan of Reorganization (together with all subsequent amendments and modifications, the "Plan") and an accompanying disclosure statement together with all subsequent amendments and modifications, (the "Disclosure Statement"). The Disclosure Statement was approved by the Court on February 6, 1997. On March 19, 1997, the Court conducted a hearing regarding confirmation of the Plan and entered an order confirming the Plan submitted by the Company as modified by the order. As contemplated by the Plan, on May 28, 1997 (the "Effective Date") the Company emerged from Chapter 11 and consummated the Plan. Plan of Reorganization The Plan provided for the continuation of Capital Gaming International, Inc.'s operations. Under the Plan, the old common stock interests in Capital Gaming International, Inc. were canceled and the Company, as reorganized, issued new common stock (the "New Common Stock"). The Plan provides generally that creditors of the Company will receive distributions as follows: (1) holders of Old Secured Notes received in the aggregate (A) on account of their Allowed Secured Claims, their Pro Rata Share of the New Secured Notes having a principal face amount of $21,450,000 and 1,225,000 shares of the New Common Stock of the Company; and (B) on account of their unsecured Deficiency Claims totaling $80,688,850, the same treatment as is afforded to holders of General Unsecured Claims (see subparagraph (iii) below); (ii) holders of Secured Claims that are not Claims arising out of Old Secured Notes receive, at the option of the Company: (X) such treatment as will leave such holders unimpaired; (Y) payment in full, in cash; or (Z) return of such holder's collateral in the possession of the Company; and (iii) holders of General Unsecured Claims against the Company received their pro rata shares of (A) 525,000 shares of New Common Stock; (B) the right to receive the net proceeds of Avoidance Actions recovered pursuant to Section 9.4 of the Plan; and $1,100,000 in New Secured Notes. With respect to Class 4 Claims, the indenture Trustee could receive no more than 375,000 shares of New Common Stock and $550,000 in New Secured Notes on account of its allowed Class 4 Claim, and any share the Indenture Trustee would otherwise receive on account of its Class 4 Claim in excess of 375,000 shares and any F-13 New Secured Notes the Indenture Trustee would otherwise receive on account of its Class 4 Claim in excess of $550,000 in New Secured Notes is required to be distributed pro rata to all other holders of Allowed Class 4 Claims. Holders of Old Common Stock of the Company received their pro rata share of 50,000 shares of New Common Stock of the Company. Existing warrants, options and other rights to acquire Old Common Stock of the Company (collectively, the "Old Options") were canceled and holders of such rights received no distributions of property on account thereof. The terms of the Plan provide for the discharge of all claims against the Company and/or release of liability only of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and their respective present and former directors, officers, and employees, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders, Steering Committee of all liabilities in any way related to the Company. In addition, a critical element of the Plan is the release by the Indenture Trustee and each of the Noteholders of all their claims against subsidiaries of the Company arising out of guaranties and pledges, except for the treatment of their Claims provided under the Plan. Management Agreements The Plan also calls for the continued employment of the Company's key management under their existing employment contracts, as modified. Liabilities Subject to Compromise Prior to the Effective Date, the Company incurred certain secured and unsecured claims prior to the filing of the Company's Chapter 11 case on the Petition Date. Additional claims arose subsequent to the Petition Date resulting from the rejection of certain executory contracts and from the allowance by the court of contingent and/or disputed claims. Creditors and other parties in interest filed claims with the Court which were in excess of the amounts recorded in the Company's records. These differences were related to errors, duplicative claims and overstatement of claims. Liabilities subject to compromise consisted of the following immediately preceding the Effective Date: Senior Secured Notes $ 102,971,000 Consent Fee, Payable to Noteholders 1,350,000 Guarantee of Notes Payable to Banks 2,141,000 Notes Payable to Republic Corporate Services 22,630,000 Trade Payables and Accrued Expenses 3,297,000 ------------------ $ 132,389,000 Fresh Start Reporting In accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 90-7 "Financial reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" (SOP 90-7), the Company was required to adopt fresh-start accounting on the Effective Date. The effect of the adoption of fresh-start reporting is reflected in the June 30, 1997 Consolidated Balance Sheet. In adopting fresh-start reporting, the Company, with the assistance of its financial advisors, estimated its reorganization value, which represents the fair value of the entities under reorganization, before considering liabilities. In order to accomplish this, the Company provided its financial advisors with cash flow projections for the post-reorganization operation of the Company's business under different scenarios. The scenarios, which ranged from three to eight years of post-reorganization operation, included assumptions related to the completion of the Narragansett project and the attraction of new management agreements. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the Narragansett project and the ability of the Company to attract and enter into new management agreements, there were significant differences in the cash flow projections under the various scenarios. Based upon their knowledge and experience in the gaming industry F-14 generally, and their familiarity with the Company's business and description of its contracts, the financial advisors applied appropriate probability factors to each of the scenarios, which reflected, among other things, the inherent risks in realizing the assumptions underlying each of the scenarios. The result of applying the factors to each of the scenarios produced a probability weighted cash flow projection for the Company as a whole. Due to the Company's expected NOL carryforwards, no consideration was given to the effect of federal income taxes. Further, as the Company has no significant tangible fixed assets, no consideration was given to the terminal value of the Company. A discount rate of 12% was the applied to the combined cash flow projections to determine their present value. This resulted in as estimated fair value of the Reorganized Company of approximately $23,500,000, which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court during its confirmation hearings. The excess of the reorganization value over the fair market value of the net assets, totaling about $9,339,000, is reported as excess reorganization value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and will be amortized over a period of four years. The adjustments to reflect the consummation of the Reorganization (including the gain on extinguishment of debt and other pre-petition liabilities) and the adjustment to record assets and liabilities at their fair values have been reflected in the June 30, 1997 consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, a vertical black line is shown in the consolidated financial statements to separate post-Reorganization operations from those prior to May 28, 1997. As a result of adopting fresh-start reporting the reorganized Company's consolidated financial statements are not comparable with those prepared before the Effective Date. Reorganization adjustments for the period ended May 28, 1997 were comprised of: Legal/Professional Fees $(1,716,000) Interest Income 30,000 Write-off of Goodwill (405,000) Excess Reorganization Value 9,265,000 Adjustments to Capital Stock 37,217,000 Adjustment to Paid in Capital 7,877,000 ------------ Total $52,268,000 Reorganization fees paid to management for the period ended May 28, 1997, included in Reorganization Items amounted to $1,463,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. According to the Plan of Reorganization, this was comprised of (i) $900,000 from the discontinuance and sale of the riverboat operation in New Orleans, (ii) $550,000 in New Senior Secured Notes, and (iii) $13,000 in New Common Stock grants. F-15 The effect of the Plan of Reorganization on the Balance Sheet as of May 28, 1997, is as follows: Prereorganized Debt Discharge Exchange of Reorganized Balance Sheet Stock Fresh Start Balance Sheet Assets - ------ <C.

(CGMI) and Capital Development Gaming Corp. (CDGC). Periods prior to July 1, 1996 also include a former subsidiary, Cresent City Development Corp. (CCCD). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in banks and overnight investments. The Company considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of those investments. Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost, depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life - primarily 4 to 8 years. Revenue Recognition The revenues recognized in these financial statements from Native American Casino Management Fees are those of CGMI and represent management fees derived primarily from Class III (gaming) facilities. Management fees are recognized as revenue when earned based upon earnings sharing arrangements detailed in the respective management contracts with the Native American Tribes. Excess Reorganization Value Excess Reorganization Value is amortized on a straight line basis over four years. When changes in circumstances require, management evaluates events and circumstances in order to determine whether the recorded balance has been impaired. If impairment is deemed to exist, the excess reorganization value will be written down to fair value. As of June 30, 1997, management expects the asset to be fully recoverable. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires the measurement of deferred tax assets for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards and of deferred tax liabilities for taxable temporary differences. Measurement of the current deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on provisions of enacted tax law; the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. Deferred tax assets primarily result from net operating loss carryforwards and impairment of assets recognized in different periods for financial reporting and tax purposes. Capitalization of Development Costs The costs associated with developing, negotiating and securing new management agreements are expensed as incurred until such time when management belives the development of a casino facility is likely. This juncture in development requires, at a minimum, a management contract in effect and indications that regulatory approvals and licensure is probable. Subsequent costs are capitalized and included in Investments in Native American Management Agreements. Amortization of capitalized amounts related to new contracts begins when the facility opens. F-17 Net (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock Net (loss) per share of common stock for the reorganized company is computed on the basis of the weighted shares of common stock outstanding. The weighted average number of shares outstanding and net income per common share for the predecessor company have not been presented because, due to the reorganization and implementation of fresh start reporting, they are not comparable to subsequent periods. Reorganization Items Reorganization items consist of income, expenses and other costs directly related to the reorganization of the Company, the Chapter 11 filings of both its former CCCD subsidiary and the reorganization of the parent company, and subsequent reorganization efforts. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform with classifications used in the current year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (3) NATIVE AMERICAN GAMING OPERATIONS Facility Openings and Summarized Financial Information - On March 10, 1995, the Umatilla Tribe opened the 40,000 square foot Wildhorse Gaming Resort in Pendleton, Oregon. This facility, under management by the Company offers video slot machines, keno, non-banking table games, off-track betting (OTB) and high stakes bingo. The first phase of this development opened on November 5, 1994. During the periods May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997 and July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 the facility produced approximately $337,000, $3,529,000, $3,210,000 and $1,365,000 respectively in management fees for the Company. On April 27, 1995, the Tonto Apache Tribe opened the 35,000 square foot Mazatzal Casino located north of Phoenix, Arizona. The casino features slot machines, keno, non-banking table games and high stakes bingo. The Company, as manager of the casino, collected approximately $232,000, $1,823,000, $1,961,000 and $305,000 in management fees for the periods May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997 and July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. The Muckleshoot Tribe opened the first phase of its Muckleshoot Casino on April 28, 1995, and presently offers table games, poker games, keno and OTB. The facility is located in the Seattle-Tacoma metropolitan area. The final phase of this facility opened on September 8, 1995 with gaming space of 65,000 square feet. The Company, as manager of the facility, collected approximately $184,000, $2,176,000, $2,038,000 and $615,000 for the periods May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997 and July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Cow Creek Management contract was terminated in exchange for a payment of $3,000,000. The Cow Creek facility generated an additional $618,000 in management fees during the year ended June 30, 1996. F-18 Total management fees for the periods ended June 30, 1977 and May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were approximately $753,000, $7,447,000, $7,663,000 and $6,441,000 respectively. CGMI currently has management contracts for three operating Native American facilities. The loss of any one contract could result in a significant negative impact in the near term. Summarized financial information of CGMI is provided below. For periods ended June 30, 1997 and May 28, 1997, and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 the net income (loss) reflects approximately $27,000, $483,000, $1,900,000 and $2,200,000 respectively in interest expense to the parent.

The closing under the Stock Purchase Agreement occurred on November 19, 1993 and a final additional payment of $113,000 was made on that date for additional assets. On August 11, 1994, British American Bingo, Inc. changed its name to Capital Gaming Management, Inc. ("CGMI"). The acquisition of CGMI was recorded under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the total purchase price of $2,613,000 was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Expenses of the acquisition were not material. The excess of purchase price over fair value of assets and liabilities acquired was recorded as goodwill. As a result of the Company's Chapter 11 reorganization, goodwill was reduced to $0 at May 28, 1997. Condensed balance sheet data for the acquired net assets is as follows: Current Assets, (including cash of $197,000) $ 612,000 Land and Other Assets 168,000 Investment in Native American Management Agreements - Net 1,578,000 Native American Casino Development Advances 996,000 Liabilities (1,547,000) ---------- Fair Market Value of Net Assets $1,807,000 Purchase Price 2,613,000 ---------- Goodwill $ 806,000 ========== F-19 (4) RHODE ISLAND DEVELOPMENT PROJECT Narragansett Contract - Native American Casino (Rhode Island). CDGC has entered into a seven-year management and development contract with the Narragansett Tribe (as amended, the "Narragansett Contract"). The Narragansett Contract provides for CDGC to receive an annual management fee of 30% of net distributable profits (as defined therein) of the facility for the first five years and 20% for the remaining two years. As part of the Narragansett Contract, the Company is required to advance a construction loan to be repaid over a seven-year period. The Narragansett Contract was submitted to the National Indian Gaming Commission for approval in June 1995. In light of certain federal legislation as well as pending litigation, no assurance can be given if, or when, such approval will be obtained or if the Narragansett Tribe will be able to establish a commercial gaming enterprise (Class II or Class III) under Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. Additionally, it is possible, as a condition of obtaining such approval, that the NIGC will require material modifications to the Narragansett Contract. In August 1994, a Tribal-State Compact was entered into between the Narragansett Tribe and Governor Bruce Sundlun of Rhode Island. In October and November 1994, two lawsuits were filed (including one by Rhode Island Attorney General Pine referred to herein as the "Pine Case") seeking to void the Tribal/State Compact on the grounds that the Governor of Rhode Island lacked the authority to bind the State of Rhode Island absent State legislative approval. In 1995, Rhode Island's new governor, Governor Almond, joined in the Pine Case. In February 1996, the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island held that the Tribal/State Compact was void for lack of State legislative approval. The State of Rhode Island has subsequently refused to negotiate with the Narragansett Tribe. The Secretary of the Interior has requested comments as to whether the Secretary of the Interior can enact Secretarial procedures to permit gaming under IGRA for the Tribes in states (such as Rhode Island) that refuse to negotiate Tribal/State Compacts in good faith. If the Secretary of the Interior concludes that he has such authority, the Company believes that the Secretary of the Interior may adopt such procedures resulting in the Secretary of the Interior adopting procedures applicable to gaming by the Narragansett F-20 Tribe. Unless the Chafee Rider (as defined below) is overturned, however, there can be no assurance that the Secretary of the Interior will have the authority to impose a compact on the State of Rhode Island. In addition, in September 1996, federal legislation was passed as a non-relevant rider (introduced by U.S. Senator John Chafee of Rhode Island, the "Chafee Rider") to the must-pass Omnibus Appropriations Bill which has the effect of singling out the Narragansett Tribe's reservation (where the gaming facility is currently planned to be built) for exclusion from the benefits of IGRA. The Chafee Rider, which the Company believes discriminates against the Narragansett Tribe by treating it differently from every other Indian Tribe in the United States, was passed without hearings or debate, with no consultation with the Narragansett Tribe and over the objections of the ranking members of the Senate Indian Affairs Committee. Unless the Chafee Rider is overturned, the Narragansett Tribe will be precluded from establishing a Class II or Class III gaming facility under IGRA. Under Rhode Island state law, therefore, the Narragansett Tribe's only recourse to establish a gaming facility absent a repeal of the Chafee Rider would be to submit the issue to a statewide and, possibly, local referendum. There can be no assurance, however, that any such referendum would be successful or, if successful, what the ultimate scope of permitted gaming would be. In August 1996, the NIGC submitted comments on the Narragansett Contract. In light of the decision by the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island invalidating the Tribal/State Compact, the NIGC had informed the Company and the Narragansett Tribe that they would only consider a contract relating solely to Class II gaming. In light of this, the Company bifurcated the Narragansett Contract and submitted it (the "Management Agreement") on June 21, 1996 for review and approval by the NIGC of only the portions relating to Class II gaming. The Company reclassified the Class III contract as a development contract until such time as a Tribal/state compact for Class III gaming was signed. As a result of the Chafee Rider, however, on December 16, 1996, the NIGC declined further review of the Management Agreement between the Narragansett Tribe and CDGC. In declining to approve the Management Agreement, the NIGC cited enactment of the Chafee Rider that removed the Narragansett Tribe's settlement lands from the application of the IGRA. The Chairman of the NIGC declined review of the Management Agreement asserting that the Naragansett Tribe had lost its rights to conduct Class II and Class III gaming as a result of the application of the Chafee Rider. An appeal from this decision was filed with the NIGC on December 20, 1996, and on June 17, 1997, the NIGC issued a final decision upholding the Chairman's decision. On February 19, 1997, the Narragansett Tribe initiated litigation in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, naming the NIGC and its Chairman as defendants. In this action, the Narragansett Tribe sought a declaration of such Court to the effect that, among other things, the Chafee Rider is unconstitutional under the equal protection component of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and an injunction requiring the defendants to complete the Management Agreement between the Narragansett Tribe and CDGC. Both the Narragansett Tribe and the NIGC filed cross-motions for summary judgment in the matter. A hearing was held on this action on June 7, 1997 and on August 18, 1997, the District Court for the District of Columbia granted the NIGC's motion for summary judgment. Management believes that the Narragansett Tribe will appeal this decision. Congressional review of the Chafee Rider was initiated on May 1, 1997, with a hearing before the Committee on Resources of the U.S. House of Representatives. The hearing included testimony from the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Narragansett Tribe and the National Council of American Indians, all of whom testified in support of repeal of the Chafee Rider, as well as several political leaders from the State of Rhode Island, who support the Chafee Rider. Following this hearing, on June 19, 1997, legislation that would amend and effectively repeal the Chafee Rider ("H.R. 1983") was introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy (D-RI), a member of the Committee on Resources. Joining Rep. Kennedy as original co-sponsors of H.R. 1983 were Rep. Don Young (R-AK), the Chairman of the Committee on Resources, and Rep. Dale E. Kildee (D-MI), a member of the Committee on Resources, and Co-Chairman of the Congressional Native American Caucus. H.R. 1983 has been referred to and is pending before the Committee on Resources. F-21 In spite of the set-back caused by the Chafee Rider, the Company intends to pursue the Narragansett development project. There can be no assurance, however, that any legislative or judicial efforts to overturn the Chafee Rider will be successful. The Company has continued funding the on-going development costs of the Rhode Island Development Project. None of these costs have been capitalized. Included in Native American Gaming Development Costs in the statement of operations for the periods May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997 and July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are $532,000, $1,799,000, $1,899,000 and $1,927,000 respectively in costs related to the development of this management contract. At June 30, 1997, approximately $7,432,000 is expected to be recoverable by the Company only if and when a gaming facility is established by the Narragansett Tribe as repayment will be made from the Net Distributable Profits of the gaming facility. (5) EXCESS REORGANIZATION VALUE Accumulated amortization and amortization expense of excess reorganization value was approximately $193,000 as of June 30, 1997 and for the period May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997.

There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or the courts will agree with management's analysis. There are substantial risks associated with the Company's utilization of the NOLs. The term "Gross NOLs" means the local NOLs reported to the Internal Revenue Service on the federal income tax returns of the particular taxpayer, before the application of any reductions and related adjustments. Based on its federal income tax returns for the years through June 30, 1996, the Company and its subsidiaries reported cumulative gross NOLs of approximately $107,000,000. Under Section 172(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Tax Code") as in effect for those years unused. NOLs expire after fifteen taxable years from the taxable year of a loss. Because these losses were generated in 1994, 1995 and 1996, they should expire in 2009, 2010 and 2011 respectively. Under the Plan, unsecured indebtedness of the Company with an aggregate face amount of approximately $110,000,000 was canceled. Generally, Tax Code ss. 108 provides that a debtor whose indebtedness is canceled must include the amount of canceled indebtedness in gross income to the extent the indebtedness canceled exceeds any consideration (e.g., cash, notes, stock or other property) given for the cancellation. Tax Code ss. 108 further provides, however, that if a taxpayer is the subject of a bankruptcy case and the cancellation of indebtedness ("COD") is pursuant to a plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the excess amount canceled is not required to be included in gross income. Instead, any such excess amounts so excluded from gross income reduce prescribed tax attributes of the debtor, including NOLs and the bases of the assets of the debtor, in a specified order of priority beginning with NOLs. Management of the Company believes that $75,500,000 of its Gross NOLs of approximately $107,000,000 as of June 30, 1996 must be reduced to take into account cancellation of indebtedness of the Company pursuant to the Plan. The term "Net NOLs" means the amount of NOLs of the particular taxpayer for federal income tax purposes adjusted to reflect reductions and related adjustments required under Tax Code ss. 108 and Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5), assuming that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies, but subject to Internal Revenue Service audits, subsequent changes in the ownership of the Company and effects under Tax Code ss. 382, and the application of Tax Code Sections 269 and 384. After taking into account the reorganization of the Company pursuant to the Plan and assuming that Tax ss. 382(1)(5) applies, management of the Company believes the Net NOLs of the Company and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997 are approximately $31,500,000, although no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to utilize these NOLs. If a corporation undergoes an "ownership change", Tax Code ss. 382 limits the corporation's right to use its NOLs each year to an annual percentage (based on the federal long-term tax-exempt rate which was 5.64% in May of 1997) of the fair market value of the corporation at the time of the ownership change (the "Section 382 Limitation"). If an ownership change under Tax Code ss. 382 is triggered, a corporation may also be restricted from utilizing certain built-in losses and built-in deductions recognized during a five-year recognition period after the ownership change. A corporation is considered to undergo "an ownership change" if, as a result of changes in the stock ownership by "5-percent shareholders" or as a result of certain reorganizations, the percentage of the corporation's stock owned by those 5-percent shareholders has increased by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of stock owned by those shareholders at any time during a prescribed prior three-year testing period. Five-percent shareholders are persons who hold 5% or more of the stock of a corporation at any time during the testing period as well as groups of shareholders who are not individually 5-percent shareholders. Although a 50% ownership charge was expected to occur as a result of the transfer of stock of the Company to creditors pursuant to the Plan, an exception under Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) is believed by management to have applied as described as follows. Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) provides that the Section 382 Limitation will not apply to a loss corporation if (1) the corporation, immediately before the ownership change, is under the jurisdiction of a court in a United States Code Title 11 or similar case and F-23 (2) the shareholders and creditors of the old corporation own at least 50% of the total voting power and value of the stock of the corporation after the "ownership change" as a result of being shareholders and creditors before the change. Stock transferred to such creditors counts only if it is transferred with respect to "old and cold" indebtedness. Indebtedness of creditors qualifies as "old and cold" if the indebtedness (i) was held by a particular creditor for at least 18 months before the date of the filing of the Chapter 11 case, or (ii) arose in the ordinary course of the trade or business of the old loss corporation and was held by the person who at all times held a beneficial interest in that debt. These requirements will not apply, however, and thus a loss corporation generally may treat the debt as meeting the holding period requirement, unless (i) the creditor becomes a 5-percent shareholder of the loss corporation (directly or indirectly) immediately after the ownership change or (ii) such creditor's participation in the formation of the reorganization plan makes it evident to the debtor that the creditor has not owned the debt in question for the required period. Although the Company's management has attempted to determine the extent to which the indebtedness of creditors who received stock pursuant to the Plan qualifies as "old and cold", in certain instances there is still a lack of corroborative evidence as to the status of certain creditors, and the New Indenture trustee has apparently not yet fixed the record date for determining who is entitled to receive a distribution of the Company common stock as a result of being a holder of Old Secured Notes. Management is attempting to obtain written confirmation of the status of the creditors who are receiving Company common stock. Management has requested the New Indenture trustee to fix the record date on or before the Effective Date of the Plan. Because of the uncertainty related to these issues, management of the Company is unable to document that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) applies to the ownership change that occurred as a result of the implementation of the Plan. However, based on the information available to management of the Company, and based on management's belief that it can favorably resolve the date on which the New Indenture trustee fixes the record date for distributions of Company common stock, management of the Company believes that sufficient indebtedness of creditors will qualify as "old and cold" under Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) so that Tax Code ss. 382(1)(5) will apply to this ownership change. No assurances, however, can be given that documentation will ultimately be obtained by the Company from creditors to confirm this belief. Likewise, if the New Indenture trustee fixes a record date for distribution of the Company common stock which is after the Effective Date of the Plan, transfers of the right to receive the Company common stock after the Effective Date may cause the Company not to be able to avail itself of Tax Code ss. 383(1)(5). If the Company is subject to the Section 382 Limitation as a result of the consummation of the Plan, its annual Section 382 Limitation would be equal to the product of the applicable long-term tax-exempt rate (5.64%) times the fair market value of the equity of the Company immediately before the ownership change. Thus, based on the value of the equity of the Company as of the Effective Date of the Plan of $400,000, then the Company could use approximately $23,000 of its NOLs each year until they expire. As a result of the Company's Chapter 11 proceedings, for financial reporting, the Company recorded significant tax changes. Such changes are reflected in the June 30, 1997 deferred tax asset amount as set forth below. Substantial net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL's") generated in previous years totaling approximately $107,000,000 were reduced by approximately $75,500,000, leaving the Company with remaining NOL's totaling approximately $31,500,000 assuming that section 382(1)(5) applies. The reductions are mainly a result of the cancellation of Indebtedness income effected by the reorganization. As of June 30, 1997, the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $31,500,000 expiring as follows: June 30, 2009 6,930,000 June 30, 2010 14,490,000 June 30, 2011 10,080,000 ----------- Total $31,500,000 Pursuant to SOP 90-7 any benefits the Company may receive from the utilization of preconfirmation net operating loss carryforwards will first reduce excess reorganization value until exhausted and thereafter be reported as a direct addition to paid-in capital. F-24 The Income tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of deferred income tax assets as of June 30, 1997 and 1998 are as follows: 1997 1998 ---- ---- Deferred Income Tax Assets: Federal Net Operating Losses $ 10,698,000 $ 24,500,000 State Net Operating Losses 2,138,000 4,277,000 -------------------------------------- Total Deferred Income Tax Assets 12,836,000 28,777,000 Valuation Allowance (12,836,000) (28,777,000) ====================================== Net Deferred Income Tax Assets $ 0 $ 0 ====================================== The deferred tax asset valuation allowance is equal to the full amount of the gross deferred tax asset because the realization of the assets cannot be assured at this time. (7) LOANS RECEIVABLE - NATIVE AMERICAN TRIBES The Company has funded the development and construction of the Class III Native American gaming facilities it manages and operates including equipment financing amounting to approximately $3,300,000. As of June 30, 1997, there was a total of approximately $7,631,000 in loans outstanding with $3,943,000 to be realized within one year and $3,688,000 classified as long-term. These notes bear interest rates at prime +1% (9.5% at June 30, 1997) and have scheduled repayments of 36 to 60 months. A five year maturity table is presented below: For the years ended: June 30, 1998 $3,943,000 June 30, 1999 2,249,000 June 30, 2000 1,439,000 June 30, 2001 -0- June 30, 2002 -0- -------------------- TOTAL $7,631,000 Federally recognized Native American Indian tribes are sovereign nations governed by federal statutes that are different than statutes governing commercial enterprises in the United States. These receivables are due from four tribes, collectively. While the Company has legal counsel experienced in Indian gaming law and matters, there is the risk that the Company may not prevail if collectibility is forced into litigation. The Company does not require collateral from the Tribes to secure its receivable. Management has no disputes with any Native American tribe that would place doubt on the full collectibility of any of the receivables. The Company takes all necessary legal measures in the documentation and preparation of agreement executed with Native American Tribes, including the Tribe's waiver of sovereign immunity related to contract enforcement. Loan Repayment and Contract Buy-out - Pursuant to the terms of the Class III management contract between the Muckleshhot Tribe and the Company's Native American gaming subsidiary - Capital Gaming Management, Inc. (CGMI) - the Tribe has repaid the CGMI approximately $7,600,000 that was advanced for developing, constructing and equipping the gaming facility. Additionally, under the terms of the Class III management contract, the annual management fee of 11.5% of gross gaming revenues has been reduced to 3.9% simultaneously upon the repayment of the loan by the Tribe in September 1995. The Company also closed an agreement effective September 1, 1995 pursuant to which the Cow Creok Bank of Umpqua Tribe of Indians bought out the remaining term of the Management Agreement for the Tribe's gaming facility in Canyonville, Oregon. The Tribe has paid the Company and its Native American F-25 subsidiary $3,000,000 in consideration for early termination of the Management Agreement and principal repayment of approximately $823,000. The buy-out of future management fees of $3,000,000 and the principal repayment of $823,000 was paid to the Trustee for the Senior Secured Noteholders, less $200,000 for expenses in connection with the transaction which was reimbursed to the Company. The five year Management Agreement had less than two years remaining prior to its expiration. (8) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consist of the following as of June 30, 1997 1996 ---- ---- Office furniture, fixtures and equipment $ 112,000 $ 248,000 Less accumulated depreciation (97,000) (121,000) ------------- ----------- $ 15,000 $ 127,000 ============ =========== Depreciation expense for the periods May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997 and July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 is $3,000, $34,000, $37,000 and $65,000 respectively and is included as part of depreciation and amortization expense. (9) INVESTMENT IN NATIVE AMERICAN MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS The balance of $1,937,000 as of June 30, 1997 in this caption on the balance sheet represents capitalized costs and payments related only to the remaining Class III management agreements. The Company is amortizing such amounts over five years on the straight line method. The remaining lives of these management contracts is approximately 2-3 years. Amortization for the periods May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997 and July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 was approximately $59,000, $687,000, $860,000 and $293,000, respectively. Accumulated amortization as of June 30, 1997 and 1996 was approximately $1,290,000 and $1,412,000 respectively. When changes in circumstances require, the management of the Company will evaluate whether the individual carrying value of these assets has been impaired by comparing the carrying value to the value of the projected net cash flow from related operations. As of June 30, 1997, management expects the assets to be fully recoverable. (10) NOTES RECEIVABLE FROM OFFICERS Pursuant to the Reorganization Plan and their respective amended employment agreements, the Company's two senior executives borrowed a total of $250,000 from the Company. These loans are evidenced by unsecured notes which bear six percent (6%) simple interest. Both notes mature on May 28, 1998. Pursuant to the Plan, the Company's two senior executives are entitled to a confirmation bonus relative to the Company's restructuring of $250,000 in cash as well as $550,000 in New Secured Notes. The cash portion of the confirmation bonus is payable upon the satisfaction of certain conditions subsequent to the confirmation date as outlined in the amended employment agreements. F-26 (11) DEBT AFTER REORGANIZATION Senior Secured Notes Pursuant to the Reorganization, the holders of the Old Notes, along with certain unsecured creditors and key members of management, received, on a pro rata basis, the New Senior Secured Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $23,100,000. Interest on the New Senior Secured Notes accrues at a rate of 12% per annum, and is payable semi-annually. The New Senior Secured Notes are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, including the common stock of CGMI and CDGC. In addition, the Amended Indenture includes certain restrictive covenants. The Company has complied with substantially all of the covenants as of June 30, 1997, except as more fully described below. The New Senior Secured Notes are redeemable prior to maturity, in whole or part, at the election of the Company, at the redemption price of 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The New Senior Secured Notes mature in May of 2001. Required principal payments during the next five years are as follows: June 30, 1998 $ 0 June 30, 1999 0 June 30, 2000 4,620,000 June 30, 2001 18,480,000 Thereafter 0 --------------- Total $ 23,100,000 The indenture - The proceeds from the issuance of the Company's New Senior Secured Notes are subject to certain restrictions, and the Company is subject to certain restrictive covenants, including dividend restrictions, pursuant to the Amended Indenture. The Company is also required to repurchase the New Senior Secured Notes under certain conditions. Default Under Amended Indenture: The Amended Indenture contemplates that certain actions of the Company require prior notice to (and in certain cases, approval from) an Advisory Committee. No proposed member of the Advisory Committee has yet executed an appropriate confidentiality agreement and, therefore no such proposed member has qualified to serve on such committee. Moreover, the Company has been notified by several state gaming regulators in states in which the Company conducts business, that the breadth and scope of the powers granted to the Advisory Committee in the Amended Indenture require that proposed members of the Advisory Committee be licensed by the appropriate gaming regulators and further that, in the absence of such licensure, actions by members of the Advisory Committee would constitute an improper circumvention of applicable licensing requirements. In the absence of a functioning Advisory Committee, the Company may not be able to enter into certain transactions or otherwise conduct its business without violating certain covenants in the Amended Indenture. The Company has been notified by the Amended Indenture Trustee that the Amended Indenture Trustee has reserved its right to assert that certain actions taken by the Company to date (including the failure of the Company to have its budget approved by the Advisory Committee) constitute a default under the Amended Indenture. To date, however, the Amended Indenture Trustee has not delivered to the Company any notice of an Event of Default. Moreover, the Amended Indenture Trustee has notified the Company that it has been directed by a majority in principal amount of the New Senior Secured Notes to forebear from taking any action to accelerate the New Senior Secured Notes until November 14, 1997 during which time the Company will have an opportunity to cure any such default. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with Counsel and a Noteholder representing a majority of Noteholders for the purpose of amending the Amended Indenture to affect solely the rights, duties and powers of the Advisory Committee and provide for an Advisory Committee with the authority to approve the Company's budget without the need for Advisory Committee members to be licensed as required by gaming regulators or the possible elimination of the Advisory Committee concept from the Indenture altogether. The Amended Indenture Trustee, the majority of Noteholders and the Company believe it is probable that the parties will be able to amend the Amended Indenture to cure the default by November 14, 1997. There is no assurance, however, that a satisfactory resolution of this matter can be achieved. In the absence of a satisfactory resolution, the Amended Indenture Trustee would elect to declare an Event of Default in which case the New Senior Secured Notes could be accelerated and the Amended Indenture Trustee could seek to enforce its rights under the Amended Indenture, including foreclosing on its collateral. F-27 (12) CAPITAL STRUCTURE Capital Structure After Reorganization Pursuant to the Plan, the Predecessor Company's common stock and outstanding options were canceled on the Effective Date. The Plan also provided for the amendment and restatement of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws. The new charter authorized 3,200,000 shares of no par value common stock. Upon the Effective Date, 1,800,000 shares of common stock were authorized for issue on a pro rata basis to the Company's various classes of creditors. In addition, the Company's executive management became entitled to receive a total of 66,667 share of common stock on the Effective Date. Also on the Effective Date, 133,333 shares were reserved to be issued to executive management pursuant to the Plan. The remaining shares will be issued in two installments; on the first and second anniversary of the Effective Date. In accordance with Section 10 of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, the Company is imposing certain transferability restrictions upon its 5-percent shareholders for purposes of Tax Code ss. 382. These restrictions generally provide that the 5-percent shareholders shall be prohibited from transferring shares of New Common Stock without the consent of a designated Tax Advisor (the "Tax Advisor"). The Tax Advisor shall have no obligation to consent to a transfer unless it determines that the proposed transfer and any related proposed transfers do not create an unreasonable risk of loss of, or material litigation on, the Company's use of its net operating loss carryforwards. Preferred and Common Stock Preferred stock of the predecessor Company consisted of 5,000,000 authorized shares, of which none where issued. Common stock of the predecessor Company consisted of 75,000,000 authorized shares. All predecessor common and preferred stock were canceled under the Reorganization. The predecessor Company had adopted a Stock Option Plan. All outstanding options were canceled pursuant to the Reorganization. (13) STOCK OPTION PLAN Pursuant to the Reorganization, the Company canceled all of its existing stock options and adopted the 1997 Stock Option Plan covering 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock, pursuant to which officers, directors, consultants of, or other people rendering services to the Company or its subsidiaries are eligible to receive incentive and/or non-qualified stock options. With respect to any option granted to any employee who was employed by the Company prior to the Effective Date of the Company's Plan of Reorganization no more than 100,000 of the shares authorized under the Stock Option Plan may be awarded. The Plan expires in March 2007. Incentive stock options granted under the Plan to employees who are not 10% owners are exercisable for a period up to ten years from the date of grant at an exercise price of $1.75 or such lesser amounts approved by the Company's noteholders advisory committee. The exercise price may be adjusted subject to certain recapitalization provisions of the Plan. Incentive stock options granted under the Plan to employees who are 10% shareholders are exercisable for a period up to five years at the same exercise price provision. As of June 30, 1997 there were no options granted under the Plan. (14) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Pursuant to the Plan and on the Effective Date, the Company adopted and amended the existing employment agreements with the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President and General Counsel which provides for three year terms expiring in May 2000 at the annual salary of $495,000 and $200,000, respectively. The agreements also provide for severance payments equal to one to three years upon the occurrence of certain terminations. Included in accrued expenses are salaries due to the Company's former Chairman, in the amount of $4,000 and to the Company's Executive Vice President of Compliance in the amount of $4,000. An employment agreement in effect at June 30, 1997 with the Vice President of Compliance requires an annual compensation of $100,000 expiring May 2000. The Company has covenanted to file, upon request from the Advisory Committee or the Holders of the New Senior Secured Notes or the Holders of the New Common Stock, a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the New Senior Secured Notes and the New Common Stock. The Company also has agreed to use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") within 180 days following such notice. F-28 (15) PENSION PLAN Effective November 1, 1994, the Company adopted a defined contribution (401(k)) plan covering all eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, participating employees deposit a percentage of their salaries in the Plan. The Company matches 50% of the employee's contribution up to a maximum of 4% of salary. Expense for the periods May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997 and July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 was approximately $22,000, $51,000, $22,000 and $43,000 respectively. (16) LEASES The Company leases facilities under various operating leases expiring through January 2001. The Company's aggregate lease commitments under non-cancelable leases with terms of one year or greater total $194,000 and will require approximately $97,000 in 1998, $40,000 in 1999, $36,000 in 2000 and $21,000 in 2001. Rent expense for the period May 29, 1997 to June 30, 1997, July 1, 1996 to May 28, 1997 and the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 was approximately $8,000, $74,000, $129,000 and $144,000 respectively. (17) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash equivalents and receivables arising from Native American gaming development and operations. The Company places its cash investments in high credit quality financial institutions and currently invests primarily in U.S. government and Euro rollover obligations that have maturities of less than three months. The Company does not have cash that is subject to credit risk beyond FDIC insured limits. The Company had approximately $3,985,000 and $2,261,000 at June 30, 1997 and 1996 respectively, in repurchase agreements, cash management funds and Euro investments which are not insured. The Company has recorded as of June 30,1997, $798,000 in casino development advances, management fees, and reimbursable expenses due from Native American Tribes under management contracts as well as $7,611,000 for development loans to tribes. Federally recognized Native American Indian tribes are sovereign nations governed by federal statutes that are different than statutes governing commercial enterprises in the United States. As of June 30, 1997, these receivables are due from three tribes, collectively. While the Company has legal counsel experienced in Indian gaming law and matters, there is the risk that the Company may not prevail if collectability is forced into litigation. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, beyond the pledge of each Tribe of their gaming reserves. Management has no dispute with any Native American Tribe that would place doubt on the full collectability of any of the receivables. The Company takes all necessary legal measures in the documentation and preparation of agreements executed with Native American Tribes, including the Tribe's waiver of sovereign immunity related to contract enforcement and securing appropriate regulatory approval. All of the Company's management fee revenues are derived from three tribes as follows: Muckleshoot Tribe 28% Tonto Apache 25% Umatilla 47% The loss of any one of these Tribes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. (18) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Effective June 30, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments which requires disclosing fair value to the extent practicable for financial instruments which are recognized or unrecognized in the balance F-29 sheet. The fair value of the financial instruments disclosed herein is not necessarily representative of the amount that could be realized or settled, nor does the fair value amount consider the tax consequences of realization or settlement. In assessing the fair value of the financial instruments, the Company used a variety of methods and assumptions, which were based on estimates of market conditions and risks existing at that time. For certain instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, it was concluded that the carrying amount approximated fair value because of their short maturities. The 12.0% Senior Secured notes due 2001 are carried at their face value of $23,100,000. The fair value of the Company was determined to be $23,500,000 of which $23,100,000 was attributed to senior secured notes and $400,000 to common stock. (19) EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS Approximately $1,998,000 was recorded as early extinguishment of debt related to the distribution of an aggregate $49,986,000 on July 29, 1996 in cash and Purchasers Notes to the Senior Secured Noteholders from the sale of CCCD and CMC. The $1,998,000 is comprised of the accelerated write-off of $1,350,000 in Deferred Finance Costs and $648,000 in Original Issue Discounts. Approximately $103,464,000 was recorded as an extraordinary gain as the result of the Company's debt restructuring under Chapter 11 and the adoption of fresh-start reporting. The $103,464,000 is comprised of the following: Write-off Deferred Finance Costs and Original Issue Discounts $ (4,311,000) Record New Notes in exchange for old debt (23,100,000) Record New Notes issued to management included in Reorganization Items 550,000 Reduce Liabilities Subject to Compromise to zero 130,325,000 ----------------- Total $103,464,000 There is no income tax effect on the extraordinary items due to the cancellation of indebtedness as more fully described in Note 6. (20) RESTRICTED FUNDS IN ESCROW Restricted funds in escrow consist of $500,000 with an escrow agent in New Orleans, Louisiana representing funds withheld from the sale of CCCD and $426,000 held in escrow by the Bond Indenture Trustee. On July 17, 1997, the $500,000 was transferred to the Bond Indenture Trustee. The total $926,000 currently held by the Bond Indenture Trustee is for the benefit of the New Senior Secured Noteholders for payment of the New Senior Secured Notes and is classified as non-current. (21) LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Pursuant to the Plan, all legal proceedings against the parent company prior to the Effective Date of May 28, 1997 were settled pursuant to the Plan. As a result there was no litigation pending against the parent company on the May 28, 1997 Effective Date. The Company may be subject to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business although is not aware of the existence of any such pending or threatened legal proceedings at this time. F-30 (22) NEW AUTHORITATIVE PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings Per Share and FASB No. 129, Disclosure of Information About Capital Structure. Both are effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 128 simplifies the computation of earnings per share by replacing the presentation of primary earnings per share with a presentation of basic earnings per share. The statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share by entities with complex capital structures. Basic earnings per share include no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. SFAS 128 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company. SFAS No. 129 does not change any previous disclosure requirements but, rather, consolidates existing disclosure requirements for ease of retrieval. The FASB has issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS No. 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is permitted. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes is required. SFAS No. 130 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company. The FASB has issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 changes how operating segments are reported in annual financial statements and requires the reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. SFAS No. 131 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 1997, and comparative information for earlier years is to be restated. SFAS No. 131 need not be applied to interim financial statements in the initial year of its application. SFAS No. 131 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
