The information contained herein is unaudited.

Liabilities included in these financial statements reflect amounts known by the
Company to have been incurred. The Company has listed in prior filings with the
United States Trustee potential additional claims it believes may be asserted
against the Company.

To the best of the Debtor's knowledge and belief, based on currently available
information, all Federal income and payroll taxes due and owing have been paid.


1.       The reduction in liabilities subject to compromise was due to a
         reduction in priority passenger claims. Waivers received by Delaware
         North Companies were reimbursed from escrowed cash held by The Delta
         Queen Steamboat Co., an affiliated Debtor, as provided for in the
         Asset Purchase Agreement dated May 13, 2002.
