These financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets applicable to participants' equity of the Plan as of August 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, and the changes in its net assets applicable to participants' equity for the period from January 1, 1999 through August 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of reportable transactions is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The fund information in the statements of net assets applicable to participants' equity and the statement of changes in net assets applicable to participants' equity is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets applicable to participants' equity and the changes in net assets applicable to participants' equity of each fund. The supplemental schedule and fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP Roseland, New Jersey December 24, 1999 TRUMP MARINA HOTEL & CASINO SAVINGS PLAN STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS APPLICABLE TO PARTICIPANTS' EQUITY As of August 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 August 31, 1999 December 31, 1998 ------------------- --------------------- ASSETS: Investments at market value (Notes 1 and 3)- Merrill Lynch Pacific Fund $ - $ 2,001,968 Pimco Total Return Fund - - Merrill Lynch Federal Securities Fund - 2,770,559 Merrill Lynch Capital Fund - 6,850,539 Merrill Lynch Basic Value Fund - 11,317,212 Merrill Lynch Growth Fund - 3,505,244 Merrill Lynch Global Allocation Fund - 1,444,312 Templeton Foreign Fund - 246,683 MFS Emerging Growth Fund - 1,013,754 Davis New York Venture Fund - 2,596,191 Delaware Trend Fund - 160,417 Merrill Lynch Equity Index Trust Fund - - Federated High Income Bond Fund - - MFS Utilities Fund - - Massachusetts Investors Growth Fund - - Massachusetts Investors Trust Fund - - Merrill Lynch Healthcare Fund - - Alliance Premier Growth Fund - - Seligman Communications Fund - - Davis Series Financial Fund - - GAM International Fund - - Pioneer Growth Shares Fund - - Merrill Lynch Eurofund Fund - - Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ---------------------- Basis of Accounting - ------------------- The accompanying financial statements of the Trump Marina Hotel & Casino Savings Plan (the "Plan") have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Plan Expenses - ------------- Expenses related to the administration of the Plan have been paid by Trump Castle Associates, L.P. (the "Plan Sponsor"). These costs represent trustee fees and professional services and amounted to approximately $43,000 for the period ended August 31, 1999. Investments - ----------- The investments included in the statements of net assets applicable to participants' equity are stated at market value. Market value, which is equivalent to current value, is the unit valuation of the security at the plan year-end as determined by Merrill Lynch Trust Company, the trustee of the Plan (the "Trustee"). Accounting records are maintained on the accrual basis, investment transactions are recorded on the trade date basis and gains and losses are calculated based upon an aggregate participant cost that is maintained on an average unit cost basis. 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 amount of net assets and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. PLAN DESCRIPTION ---------------- The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. General - ------- The Plan is a 401(k) Savings Plan, which was established by the Plan Sponsor and became effective on September 1, 1986. All full or part-time, non-union employees become eligible for participation in the Plan on the enrollment date immediately following the completion of 12 months of service and the attainment of age 18. TRUMP MARINA HOTEL & CASINO SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AUGUST 31, 1999 AND DECEMBER 31, 1998 The Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the Plan Sponsor (the "Plan Administrator"). Contributions - ------------- Participants ------------ Non-highly compensated participants, as defined, are eligible to voluntarily contribute to the Plan up to 20% of their annual compensation, as defined. Highly compensated participants, as defined, are eligible to voluntarily contribute to the Plan up to 7% of their annual compensation, as defined. Tax deferred contributions are subject to a limit by the Internal Revenue Code. The 1999 limit was $10,000 per participant. Contributions to the Plan are invested by the Trustee, as designated by the participant, in increments of 5%. Plan Sponsor ------------ The Plan Sponsor contributes to the Plan 50% of each participant's contributions, not to exceed 3% of the participant's annual compensation, as defined. Participant Rollovers --------------------- The Plan permits eligible participants, as defined, to rollover cash or other property acceptable to the Plan Administrator from another qualified plan in addition to qualified voluntary participant contributions. Distributions to Participants - ----------------------------- Each participant has a fully vested interest in the amount of his or her contributions together with the allocable Plan earnings. Contributions from the Plan Sponsor vest based on the vesting schedule described below. The full value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account in the Plan will be distributed upon termination of the participant's employment. The normal form of payment is by lump sum; however, if a participant's vested benefit from all contributions exceeds $5,000, a participant has the right to receive payment in equal periodic monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual installments over a period not to exceed ten years. A participant may also withdraw all or part of his or her account upon attainment of age 59-1/2 or financial hardship, as defined in the Plan. Upon termination of employment prior to eligibility for retirement, a participant is eligible to receive the vested balance in his or her account. There were no payments due to participants who have requested to withdraw their funds prior to August 31, 1999 or December 31, 1998. Vesting - ------- Voluntary contributions are fully vested at all times and are not subject to forfeiture. TRUMP MARINA HOTEL & CASINO SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AUGUST 31, 1999 AND DECEMBER 31, 1998 The Plan Sponsor's contributions vest based upon the participant's years of continuous service as follows- Years of Continuous Service Percentage Vested --------------------------- ----------------- Less than two years 0% Two years 25% Three years 50% Four years 75% Five years or more 100% Forfeitures - ----------- The portion of a former participant's account which is not distributed because of the vesting provision will reduce the amount of the Plan Sponsor's future contributions. For the period ended August 31, 1999, $30,070 was used to reduce Plan Sponsor contributions. As of August 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, $3,787 and $82 were available to reduce future Plan Sponsor contributions, respectively. Loans - ----- The Plan permits participants to borrow from their accounts at terms established by the Plan Administrator. Participants may borrow up to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance for specific reasons, as defined by the Plan. Each loan is secured by the borrower's vested interest in the Plan and is subject to other requirements, as defined. Interest on loans is charged at a rate that is comparable to similar loans made by commercial lenders. Loan repayment terms range up to five years (fifteen years if the loan was used to purchase a primary residence). A small administrative fee is required to process all loans. 3.
