The purchase price is $26.5 million. Gold Dust West is a casino/motel which is located a few blocks to the west of Reno's downtown gaming district. The casino has been successful in catering to the "locals" market for the past 22 years. The land portion covers approximately 4.6 acres. The casino has about 17,500 square feet of gaming space, which currently accommodates 478 slot machines, and at this time, offers no table games. Gold Dust West also offers the Wildwood Restaurant, a 6,600 square foot dining area, and 106 motel rooms. Closing can take place after the registrant secures Nevada gaming approvals and certain other conditions to closing are met. It is expected to take several months to obtain gaming approval. Another condition to closing requires Gold Dust West to have achieved at least $5,100,000 of EBITDA for the trailing 12-month period ending 30 days prior to the closing date. Other conditions include satisfactory completion of the due diligence process and acceptable environmental reports and title surveys on the property. The property is included within the Central Downtown Gaming District corridor and can be improved for high rise gaming use. Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
