ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PLAN OF
OPERATION.
Country World Casinos, Inc., the Registrant (the "Company" or "Country
World") was incorporated on November 9, 1982 under the name, Innovative Medical
Technology, Inc. The Company was organized to engage in the medical industry.
The Company effected a public offering in 1983. The Company was essentially
inactive until 1990 when it undertook the manufacturing of monolithic composite
panels for use in the construction of semi-truck trailers, shipping containers
and industrial buildings. The Company discontinued this business in September
1992.
In 1993, the Company changed the focus of its planned business operations
to the construction of a casino in Black Hawk, Colorado. In August, 1993, the
Company completed the acquisition from New Allied Development Corporation and
its subsidiary, Tommyknocker Casino Corp. (collectively "NADC") of certain real
property located in Black Hawk, Colorado known as Mill Sites 12 and 13, and the
Smith Lode Mining Claim, U.S. Survey No. 502 (the "Property").
Since the Company's purchase of the Property in August 1993, the Company's
activities have focused on obtaining the necessary financing and making
preparations for construction of the casino on the Property. The Company has
been able to obtain sufficient financing to make significant preparation for
construction of the casino, but sufficient financing has not been obtained to
commence construction of this project. The Company's efforts have included the
completion of an extensive excavation project consisting of the removal of
approximately 60,000 cubic yards of rock and dirt, preparation of working
drawings for the foundation of the project, design of the interior casino and
entertainment areas of the project, work with the Colorado Department of
Transportation for the redesign of Highway 119, the main access road to the
Property, and work with the Black Hawk-Central City Sanitation District for a
sewer tap and with the City of Black Hawk's Water District to provide a water
tap to the Property. Although these efforts have not been completed, the Company
believes that, if financing were obtainable, it should be in a position to
construct a gaming facility on the Property.
In the fiscal year ended June 30,1995, the Company borrowed $1,000,000 from
Holly Holdings, Inc., formerly known as Holly Products, Inc. ("Holly"). On April
20, 1995, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of its common stock to Holly in
exchange for the cancellation of the $1,000,000 indebtedness, plus interest. The
Company also agreed to grant Holly the right to purchase up to an additional
20,000,000 shares of common stock at $.20 per share (a total of $4,000,000) if
such funding was provided within a reasonable time and progress continued to be
made concerning financing for the casino project. The Company and Holly agreed
that Holly would provide $250,000 to the Company by no later than June 30, 1995,
for which the Company would issue 1,250,000 shares of its common stock. Holly
did not provide the $250,000 to the Company by June 30, 1995; however,
subsequent to the advancement of the $1,000,000 referred to above, Holly has
provided financing of approximately $433,000 to the Company through December 31,
1996. In addition, as noted below, Holly has agreed to provide additional
financing to the Company.
The Company is in need of substantial, additional financing in order to
complete construction and to commence operation of the casino. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary financing. In
addition, the Company's ability to operate the casino will be dependent upon
substantial other conditions, including the obtaining of licenses and compliance
with governmental regulations, grading and construction of the casino, obtaining
the necessary permits and approvals from the City of Black Hawk and other
regulatory bodies, procuring gaming equipment on satisfactory terms, and
accomplishing these objectives in a timely manner. The Company does not expect
to accomplish these objectives in the current fiscal year.
3
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, the Company's disagreements
with New Allied intensified. As a result of NADC's unwillingness to cooperate
with the Company, NADC's failure to secure a release of the $475,000 first deed
of trust on the Property, NADC's misrepresentations to the Company and
subsequent legal problems involving NADC, the Company instituted litigation
against NADC.
In 1995 NADC commenced foreclosure proceedings involving the Property. Due
to the pendency of these proceedings, on October 12, 1995, the Company filed a
Voluntary Petition Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States
Bankruptcy Court, District of Colorado (Case No. 95 20563 RJB). As a result, all
creditors of the Company are stayed from commencing or continuing any action or
enforcing any judgment or lien against the Company or property of the Company,
except as otherwise authorized pursuant to Title 11 U.S.C. 362(b). Relief may be
sought by the filing of a complaint in the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to Title
11 U.S.C. 362(d). At present, the effects of the bankruptcy proceeding on the
long term outlook for the Company, and the ability of the Company to resolve
disputes with NADC and to commence development of the Property, are unclear. In
addition, NADC has filed a Motion to Convert with the Bankruptcy Court seeking
to convert the Chapter 11 case to a Chapter 7 case. See Part II, Item 1. If NADC
is successful in the Motion to Convert, the assets of the Company will be
liquidated and it would be unlikely that the common shareholders would receive
any proceeds from this liquidation. The Company opposes the Motion to Convert
and, as more fully set forth below, has submitted a Plan of Reorganization to
the Bankruptcy Court.
In March 1996 the Bankruptcy Court granted the Company's motion to approve
$5 million in financing, which financing was obtained on May 31, 1996. The $5
million financing was obtained from a group of lenders led by Kennedy Funding,
Inc. and Anglo-American Financial as agent ("Kennedy"). The lending group
included Norlar, Inc. Norlar, Inc. is a closely-held corporation beneficially
owned by Larry Berman and his wife. Mr. Berman is a director of the Company, and
an officer, director and principal shareholder of Holly. Norlar, Inc.'s
participation or percentage of the $5 million financing is 47% or $2,350,000.
The other participants are unrelated to the Company or Holly.
In connection with this financing, the Company made a Promissory Note
effective May 20, 1996 payable to Kennedy in the principal amount of $5 million
with interest payable at the rate of 15% per annum until May 19, 1997 (the
"First Year Interest Obligation") and at a rate of 24% per annum thereafter.
Payments of principal and interest are payable as follows: (a) the First Year
Interest Obligation was prepaid at closing; (b) commencing on May 19, 1997 and
for each month thereafter, the Company is to make interest only payments, in
advance, in the amount of 2% of the then existing principal balance due under
the Note; and (c) the entire outstanding principal balance, together with all
accrued and unpaid interest, if not previously paid, shall be finally due and
payable on May 19, 1999. The holder of the Note may accelerate the due date for
the entire balance of principal, interest and other sums due upon maturity in
the event of default under the Note. The default rate of interest is 24% during
the first loan year and 36% thereafter. The Note is secured by a first deed of
trust on the Property, and any buildings, fixtures and any materials which are
now or may hereafter be located on the Property. The Note has been guaranteed by
Holly. In addition, Holly and the Company have entered into an environmental
indemnity agreement with Kennedy pursuant to which they will defend and hold
harmless the co-lenders from any environmental claims.
In February 1997, the Company submitted its Third Amended Plan of
Reorganization (the "Plan") and a Fourth Amended Disclosure Statement regarding
the Plan. The primary purpose of the Plan is to maintain ownership of the
Property through a refinancing of the Property and to pay allowed claims against
the bankruptcy estate of the Company in full. If the Company is successful in
its Plan, the Company will have no unsecured debt other than to Holly and will
have a $5 million secured loan on the Property.
Norlar has agreed with the other participants in the $5 million loan to
subordinate Norlar's interest to the other participants for the benefit of the
Company. Norlar has agreed and it is proposed in the Plan, that all of Norlar's
4
monthly payments which would be due on its 47% interest in the $5 million loan
be deferred until the Property is refinanced, sold, foreclosed upon or otherwise
liquidated. Accordingly, the Company would be required, commencing May 19, 1997,
to make monthly interest-only payments on the remaining 53% of the $5 million
loan owed to the non-Norlar participants. Therefore, the Company's requirements
would be $53,000 per month.
It is proposed in the Plan that the Company will continue to seek
construction financing or joint-venture agreements in order to develop the
Property. Notwithstanding this ultimate objective, it is proposed in the Plan
that the Company undertake interim restructuring to fulfill the financial
requirements of the Plan.
It is provided in the Plan that the Company will utilize the remaining cash
on hand from the $5 million refinancing of the Property (approximately
$460,000), plus a $1 million cash infusion by Holly to pay all allowed claims in
accordance with the terms of the Plan. Holly has agreed to provide $1 million on
a phased-in basis, with an initial payment of $750,000 to be made on or before
February 28, 1997. Holly has agreed to pay the remaining $250,000 to the Company
on or before November 19, 1997. The Company has agreed with Holly to reduce this
agreement for the cash infusion to written documents, and to apply to the
Bankruptcy Court for approval of the financial transaction with full disclosure
to all creditors and parties in interest regarding the specific terms of the
cash infusion. Monies from Holly would be paid into a special bank account being
established by the Company at its bank, Norwest Bank of Glendale, for the
purpose of funding the Plan. The Company believes that its cash on hand and the
$1 million cash infusion will be sufficient to fund the Plan and to pay the
interest-only payments of $53,000 per month on the $5 million loan, commencing
May 19, 1997, through May 19, 1998.
The Company will continue to seek construction financing and permanent
"take-out" financing, or a joint-venture partner in order to develop the
Property by the construction of a gaming facility. If the Company should fail in
its efforts to obtain such financing, it is provided in the Plan that the
Company will market the Property for sale in order to liquidate the Property.
This back-up option establishes a firm cut-off date of December 31, 1997 within
which the Company is to secure construction financing and permanent take-out
financing or obtain a joint-venture partner for the development of the Property.
If the Company is unable to meet these conditions, the Company proposes in the
Plan to list the Property for sale pursuant to a public sale. As part of the
Plan, the Company would seek the approval of the Bankruptcy Court for the sale.
It is further provided in the Plan that if the Company is unable to close the
sale on the Property by April 30, 1998, that the case will be converted into a
Chapter 7 case, with a trustee appointed to liquidate the Property.
The Company has made several unsuccessful efforts to obtain financing,
construction financing, "take-out" financing, or joint venture agreements in an
attempt to develop the Property. The Company is currently engaged in discussions
with a development firm regarding development of Property, but no assurance can
be given that arrangements will be made with this firm, or if arrangements are
made, that they will be on terms favorable to the Company. There can no
assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to obtain financing
for development of the Property, or in the development or any actual operation
of the Property.
The Company has incurred substantial net losses, and had a working capital
deficiency of approximately $1,753,686 at December 31, 1996. Insofar as the
Company has not completed its casino facility, it has received no revenues from
operations from these planned business activities. The Company's financial
statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in
the normal course of business. The Company's ability to continue in existence is
dependent upon its ability to obtain additional long-term financing, achieve
profitable operations and to finalize a plan satisfactory to interested parties
in the bankruptcy proceeding. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset
or liability amounts which might be necessary should the Company be unable to
continue in existence.
During the six months ended December 31, 1996, the Company had interest
income of $22,111, interest expense of $628, general and administrative expenses
of $337,434 and depreciation expense of $3,136. The Company's loss was $319,087,
or $.04 per share. The Company remains in the development
5
stage and had incurred a loss from inception through December 31, 1996 of
$3,579,775. The ability of the Company to achieve revenues in the future will be
dependent upon realization of its plans to develop a gaming facility on the
Property.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
I. The Company is the plaintiff and a counterclaim defendant in a lawsuit
pending in Denver, Colorado District Court, Case No. 95CV2310, entitled Country
World Casinos, Inc., a Nevada corporation, Plaintiff, v. Tommyknocker Casino
Corp., a Colorado corporation and New Allied Development Corporation, a Colorado
corporation, Defendants, v. Country World Casinos, Inc., a Nevada Corporation,
Holly Products, Inc., a New Jersey corporation, Ronald G. Nathan, Sal Lauria,
Roger D. Leclerc, William H. Patrowicz and David Singer, Counterclaim
Defendants. This action has been stayed due to the filing of the Company's
Petition in Bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Colorado on October 12, 1995, Case No. 95-20563RJB which is currently pending.
The District Court litigation and the bankruptcy petition arise as a result of
disputes with New Allied Development Corporation and its subsidiary,
Tommyknocker Casino Corp. (collectively "NADC"). A claims hearing was held in
September 1996 to determine the amount of NADC's allowed secured debt in the
proceeds of the Company's financing of the Property. Prior to the hearing, the
Company had paid to NADC the undisputed portion of its secured debt against the
Property in the amount of $998,391. In November 1996, the Bankruptcy Court
issued its Memorandum Opinion and Order determining the method and amount of
NADC's secured claim. The amount of $1,308,726, as authorized by the Bankruptcy
Court, has been paid by the Company to NADC, for a total of $2,307,117. In
November 1996, the Bankruptcy Court ordered that NADC was paid in full. The
payment was without prejudice to the right of the Company to seek a
reconsideration and without prejudice to appeal the Order.
In December 1996, the Company filed a Motion for Reconsideration of the
Order of the Bankruptcy Court, as well as a notice of appeal. The Bankruptcy
Court denied the Motion for Reconsideration. In December 1996 NADC filed a
cross-appeal of the Order of the Bankruptcy Court. This appeal has been made to
the United States District Court for the District of Colorado and has been
assigned case number 96-AP- 2823.
In February 1997, the Company filed its Third Amended Plan of
Reorganization and its Fourth Amended Disclosure Statement for the Plan of
Reorganization.
NADC has filed a Motion to Convert the Company's pending bankruptcy case
pursuant to Chapter 11 to a Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceeding. The Bankruptcy
Court will conduct a hearing on this Motion to Convert on March 3, 1997. The
Company opposes this Motion to Convert. If the Motion to Convert is successful,
a Chapter 7 Trustee would be appointed to liquidate the assets of the Company,
including the Property. In that event, it would be unlikely that the common
shareholders of the Company would receive any proceeds.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Country World Casinos, Inc.
Denver, CO
I have compiled the accompanying balance sheet of Country World Casinos, Inc. (a
development stage company) as of December 31, 1996 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the six months
then ended in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review
issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
A compilation is limited to presenting in the form of financial statements
information that is the representation of management. I have not audited or
reviewed the accompanying financial statements and, accordingly, do not express
an opinion or any other form of assurance on it.
The accompanying statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will
continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern depends on the Company's ability to obtain additional long-term debt
and/or equity financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Country
World Casinos, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to
the financial statements, the Company has filed for Bankruptcy under Chapter 11,
is in the development stage, and has suffered recurring losses from operations
and has a working capital deficiency of $1,753,686 that raises substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans
in regard to these matters are discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

Organization and Business
- -------------------------
Country World Casinos, Inc. (formerly Monolite Industries) (the "Company"), a
Nevada corporation, was incorporated on November 9, 1982, and is in the
development stage. The original planned operation of the Company was for the
purpose of development, licensing and production of products on a subcontracting
basis, and the sale of products and devices in or related to the medical and/or
biotechnical fields. In May of 1990, the Company acquired another company
through the issuance of 40,000,000 shares of its common stock. This acquisition
was accounted for using the pooling of interests method. The newly merged entity
formed a subsidiary on November 29, 1990, called Trail-Lite, Inc. The planned
operation through the new subsidiary was for the purpose of manufacturing
monolithic composite panels. In September 1992, the Company disposed of its
subsidiary, Trail-Lite, Inc. (Note 8).
In fiscal year 1994, the Company changed its focus of business operations and in
two separate transactions, acquired approximately 79,000 and 375,000 square feet
of vacant land located in the city of Black Hawk, Gilpin County, Colorado. As of
December 31, 1996, the Company has not realized any revenue from its planned
operations and, accordingly, is considered to be in the development stage.
The Company is a majority-owned subsidiary of Holly Products, Inc. (Note 5)

Note 5 - Stockholders' Equity
- -----------------------------
Issuance of Common Stock at a Discount
- --------------------------------------
On May 31, 1993, the Company authorized the issuance of its remaining
authorized, but unissued, common stock to the Company's former president as
compensation, which the Company valued at $12,500. Since the par value of the
25,000,000 shares issued was $.005 per share, the stock was issued at less than
its par value. Theses 25,000,000 shares, even though issued below par, are fully
paid and non-assessable according to legal counsel for the Company, under the
Laws of the State of Nevada as long as the action is ratified by the Board of
Directors and has otherwise complied with applicable law. Legal counsel cites
NRS Sections 78.211, 78.220 and 78.215. In addition, legal counsel states such
discounts do not make the stock assessable, and cites NRS Section 78.220.
Reverse Stock Split
- -------------------
During the year ended June 30, 1993, the Company declared a 1 for 35 reverse
stock split. This split was effective with the commencement of business on
August 9, 1993, with respect to all shares which were issued and outstanding as
of August 6, 1993. The Company also changed its par value per share of common
stock from $.005 to $.001 per share. All share and per share amounts have been
restated to retroactively reflect the stock split.
Preferred Stock
- ---------------
In July 1993, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to provide for
25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value, with such rights,
preferences, designations and to be issued in such series as to be determined by
the Company's Board of Directors.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 5 - Stockholders' Equity (continued)
- -----------------------------------------
In August 1993, the Board of Directors created a series of Class A convertible
preferred (Convertible Preferred) stock valued at $1.00 per share. The maximum
issuable shares under the series is 2,250,000 shares. Holders of the Convertible
Preferred shares shall be entitled to dividends as declared by the Board of
Directors.
The Convertible Preferred stockholders, in the event of liquidation of the
Company will receive an amount equal to $3.33 per share plus declared and unpaid
dividends before any holder of common stock.
Each Convertible Preferred share is convertible into one share of common stock
anytime after distribution or automatically upon the conversion of the majority
of the Convertible Preferred stock or in the event of a public offering of the
Company's common stock at not less than $6.66 per share, or at the time of
registration.
Casino Property
- ---------------
In connection with the acquisition of Casino property, the Company issued
2,250,000 shares of convertible preferred stock to a third party. The Casino
property was independently appraised at $11,850,000 prior to the acquisition. At
the date of the acquisition, the Company's stock was selling at $1.00 per share
and therefore, the transaction was recorded at the fair value of the stock,
$1.00 per share as determined by the Board of Directors.
In order to raise funds to make the down payment for the purchase of the casino
property (Note 3), the Company has sold 600,000 shares of its common stock at
$1.00 per share in conjunction with two private placement offerings. The shares
are restricted.
Sales of Common Stock
- ---------------------
In August 1993, the Company sold five units of Company stock to offshore
investors for $300,000 per unit. Each unit consisted of 300,000 shares of the
Company's common stock and warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock
at $3.50 per share within two years of August 31, 1993.
During November and December of 1993, the Company sold an additional 140,000
shares of common stock at $2.50 per share for a total of $350,000, pursuant to a
private offering. During January 1994, the Company sold an additional 60,662

Issuances of Stock for Services
- -------------------------------
The Company entered into a management agreement with a company owned by certain
stockholders and officers of the Company (Note 8). In conjunction with the
agreement, the Company paid the related company approximately $146,000 in fees,
granted an option to acquire 250,000 shares of common stock at $.01 and granted
a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at $3.50 per share.
The related company exercised its option to purchase the 250,000 shares at $.01
with the difference between fair market value of the stock on the date of grant
of $1 and the exercise price of $.01 or $247,500, capitalized in construction in
progress. Subsequently, the agreement with the company was terminated and the
former President and Secretary/Treasurer of the Company resigned. As stipulated
in the agreement, the Company repurchased 125,000 shares of common stock at $.01
and canceled the shares.
The financial statements reflect a reduction of $247,500 in construction in
progress ($123,750 against additional paid in capital for the difference between
the fair market value of the 125,000 shares repurchased and the original
exercise price and $123,750 as compensation expenses as the construction project
will no longer benefit from the management agreement). Additionally, the
1,000,000 share warrant was canceled.
In April 1994, the Company issued 200,000 shares of common stock in conjunction
with a financial advisory and investment banking agreement (Note 5). The shares
had a fair market value of $2.50 resulting in compensation expense to the
Company of $500,000.
Issuance/Exchange of Stock
- --------------------------
Holly Products, Inc. (Note 1) acquired 2,250,453 shares of the Company's common
stock from certain existing shareholders of Country World, in exchange for
744,592 shares of its common stock. Holly Products, Inc. also acquired 16,667
shares of Country World common stock in a separate transaction for $50,000. As
of June 30, 1996 Holly Products, Inc. owned 66.9% of the outstanding shares of
Country World common stock and 55.4% of the total voting stock (common and
preferred) of Country World.
Additional Land Acquisition
- ---------------------------
In August 1993, the Company entered into a letter of intent to acquire vacant
land with an independently appraised value of $1,089,000 when the fair market
value of the Company's common stock was $1. The Company closed the acquisition
in June 1994,
F-13
COUNTRY WORLD CASINOS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 5 - Stockholder's Equity (continued)
- -----------------------------------------
and in conjunction with the acquisition, issued 250,000 shares of common stock
to the seller. The transaction was recorded at the fair market value of the
stock at the date the letter of intent was signed, $1 per share, as determined
by the Board of Directors.
Exercise of Options
- -------------------
Two stockholders and officers of the Company exercised options to acquire 95,000
shares of common stock for $.25. The options were granted at a time when the
fair market value of the stock was $2.50. The difference between the fair market
value and the exercise price of $.25 is reflected as compensation expense in the
financial statements.
Private Placement Offering
- --------------------------
In June 1994, the Company has undertaken a private placement offering for up to
5,000,000 shares of common stock at $3 per share. At December 31, 1996, the
Company had received $2,017,500, net of offering costs of $150,000 for 722,667
shares.
Note 6 - Income Taxes
- ---------------------
Effective July 1, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes," which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for
the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the
financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities
and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial
statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using expected tax rates in
effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The
measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of
any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be
realized.
The Company has not generated taxable income since its inception, and therefore,
no provision for income taxes has been made.
At June 30, 1996, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards for income
tax purposes of approximately $3,261,000 which expire through 2012. The net
operating losses are limited due to a more than 50% change in ownership. The
Company has approximately $1,110,000 deferred tax asset as a result of the net
operating losses which has been fully impaired due to uncertainty as to its
utilization.

Note 7 - Discontinued Operations
- --------------------------------
On September 15, 1992, the Company entered into an agreement to transfer
ownership in its subsidiary, Trail-Lite, Inc. for a general release agreement of
existing claims. This represented a reduction of accounts payable, short-term
borrowings and other related debt in the amount of $389,286, which is the full
amount of losses incurred by the Company to date from the operations of the
subsidiary.
The decision was precipitated by the large losses incurred from the business of
manufacturing monolithic composite panels. Based on the initial operations of
the business, the Board of Directors and management determined that profitable
operations would not be realized from the business as it was currently
structured and decided to sell the subsidiary. Management determined the
subsidiary had no value and they were transferred to an entity controlled by the
prior principal shareholders, officer and director of the Company for the
related debt that had been incurred.
Note 8 - Commitments and Contingency
- ------------------------------------
Consulting Agreements
- ---------------------
In September 1993, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a
company to assist and advise the Company in construction and development of the
hotel and casino project as well as selection of the general contractor,
architect, interior designer and engineers. The Company began paying the company
$5,000 per month in October, 1993 for six months and capitalized the costs as
construction in progress. In addition, the Company was to issue 50,000 shares of
common stock to the company. On March 10, 1994, the Company renegotiated the
consulting and construction management agreement and the 50,000 shares of stock
previously due were canceled.
Further, compensation for the consultant services pursuant to the agreement
shall be paid equal to five percent of the gross expenditures (excluding any
expenditures for the acquisition or leasing of gaming devices) paid or incurred
by the Company (including the value of any in-kind services or materials
contributed by any person) through completion of construction with respect to
any project of the Company for which consultant provides services to or on
behalf of the Company pursuant to the agreement. This consulting agreement has
expired.
In April 1994, the Company entered a three year agreement with an entity to
advise the Company in financial matters. The agreement requires the Company to
make equal monthly payments over three years of $2,770 and to issue 200,000
shares of the Company's common stock. This agreement was canceled.

In May, 1994, the Company entered into a three year, $120,000 per year
employment agreement with an officer of the Company. The agreement granted the
officer options to purchase 800,000 shares of the Company's common stock over a
5 year period at exercise prices ranging from $.25 to $6.00 per share.
Employment was terminated during the year ended June 30, 1995 and pursuant to
the employment agreement, the options expired 30 days after termination.
SEC Investigation
- -----------------
In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, the Company was informed by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") that the SEC had instituted a
formal order of investigation concerning the possibility of violations of the
federal securities laws by the Company. Although no member of the Company's
current management was affiliated with the Company during the time period the
SEC was investigating, the pendency of such investigation, and the initiation of
any action by the SEC, has impeded, the Company's efforts to obtain financing,

Consulting Agreements
- ---------------------
The Company entered into an agreement with a company related through common
ownership to serve as consultants with respect to the operation of the casino in
Black Hawk, Colorado. The agreement required the Company to pay the related
entity $20,000 per month for its services (which includes reimbursement for
expenses) through December 31, 1993, at which time the monthly payment increased
to $27,500. The agreement granted an option for 250,000 shares of common stock
at an exercise price of $.01 per share and a warrant to purchase 1,000,000
shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.50 per share. On March 2,
1994, the agreement was terminated.
Note 10 - Note Default
- ----------------------
In July 1995, the note holder on the $3,450,000 note payable (Note 4) declared
the note in default and began foreclosure proceedings on the real property
collateralizing the note. In addition, the payments due on the $725,000 note
have not been made and accordingly the note is considered in default. The
Company filed a lawsuit against New Allied Development Corporation and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Tommyknocker Casino Corp. ("NADC"). In 1993, NADC sold
to the Company the land in Black Hawk, Colorado upon which the Company plans to
construct a gaming entertainment facility. The Company believes that NADC
committed wrongful acts in connection with the land purchase. In addition to
cash, NADC received preferred stock and a promissory note (the "Note") from the
Company. The Note is secured by a second deed of trust on the Black Hawk
property. It was provided in the Note that when certain payments had been
made by the Company to NADC, NADC would obtain the release of the first deed of
trust which secures a pre-existing indebtedness of NADC in the original
principal amount of $475,000. The first deed of trust has not been released.
NADC has declared the Company in default on the Note. In the lawsuit, the
Company has requested a declaration that the Company is not obligated to make
any additional payments to NADC under the Note until NADC has secured the
release of the first deed of trust. The Company also seeks other relief against
NADC.
In March 1996 the Bankruptcy Court approved $5 million in financing, which
financing was obtained on May 31, 1996.
The Company received net proceeds of approximately $2,850,500 after payment of
loan commitment fees, loan servicing fees and points to Kennedy Funding, Inc. of
approximately $812,000, the First Year Interest Obligation of $750,000 and
$610,000 for release of the prior first deed of trust on the Property. The
holder of that deed of trust was the holder of a note which had not been paid by
NADC.

Note 10 - Note Default (continued)
- ----------------------------------
Pursuant to the Order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Company received a credit for
the amount paid to the holder of the note from NADC as a direct offset against
the Note made by the Company to NADC. The note from the Company to NADC was
secured by a second deed of trust against the Property. The net proceeds
received by the Company from the loan closing have been paid into an interest
bearing account pending further order of the Bankruptcy Court. The Company and
NADC had a dispute as to the payoff balance on the note due to NADC by the
Company. In November 1996, the Company received final rulings from the court
regarding the NADC dispute. The Company, in November 1996, tendered an amount of
approximately $1,309,000 to NADC in what it believes is full settlement of the
remaining amount of the $3,450,000 note including accrued interest.
