After the parties to the Merger Agreement obtained the requisite gaming and other governmental approvals and bank consents, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were effected (the “Closing”) on June 1, 1995 (the “Closing Date”), resulting in, among other things, the transfer by the Reporting Person of his indirect interests in the Gold Strike Properties to certain subsidiaries of the Issuer and the issuance and distribution by the Issuer of 6,501,933 Shares (the “Original Shares”) and $4,795,193 in cash to the Reporting Person.

Item 6.		Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
As described in Item 3, the Merger Agreement sets forth the Reporting Person’s agreement pursuant to which he sold his interests in the Gold Strike Properties in return for the issuance of the Original shares, and the distribution of $4,795,193 in cash, to the Reporting Person on the Closing Date.
In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Issuer’s Bylaws were amended to increase the number of Class III Directors from two to three. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Reporting Person was elected by the Issuer’s Board of Directors to fill the Class III vacancy resulting from the foregoing amendment to the Bylaws for the balance of the current term of such class. The Merger Agreement also required the Issuer, at the end of the Reporting Person’s initial term as a member of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, to use its best efforts to cause the Reporting Person (or another individual designated by the Reporting Person) to be nominated for election to a full term when the Class III directors next stood for election in 1997. The Reporting Person was elected by the Issuer’s stockholders to serve a full three-year term on the Issuer’s Board of Directors on June 24, 1997 and was reelected to additional three year terms on June 15, 2000 and June 26, 2003.
In connection with the Closing, the Reporting Person also entered into the following agreements with the Issuer which relate to the management and securities of the Issuer: Employment Agreement, Standstill Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and Agreement Pursuant to Joint Venture Agreement, each of which is discussed below.
The Employment Agreement dated as of the Closing Date by and between the Reporting Person and the Issuer required, among other things, the Issuer to employ the Reporting Person as an executive officer for a term of three years subject to automatic renewal unless the Reporting Person or the Issuer provides written notice to the contrary. The Employment Agreement, pursuant to which the Reporting Person was employed as the Issuer’s Chief Executive Officer from January 16, 1998 until May 31, 2002 and its Chief Operating Officer from June 1, 1995 until May 31, 2002, was in effect from the Closing Date until it was terminated on May 31, 2002. Neither the Issuer’s continued employment of the Reporting Person nor the Reporting Person’s positions with the Issuer were affected by the termination of the Employment Agreement.

The Standstill Agreement dated as of the Closing Date by and between the Issuer and the Reporting Person, William A. Richardson, David R. Belding, Peter A. Simon II and Glenn W. Schaeffer (the “Standstill Agreement”), contained a number of customary “standstill” restrictions, including limitations on the number of Shares which the Reporting Person could beneficially own. Pursuant to such restrictions, which terminated on June 1, 2000, the Reporting Person agreed, among other things and except in certain circumstances, for a five year period beginning on the Closing Date (i) not to acquire more than 9.9% of the outstanding equity securities of the Issuer, (ii) not to engage in the solicitation of proxies and (iii) not to make any acquisition proposal. Pursuant to a Stipulation of Settlement re Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Claims dated April 16, 1996, the Issuer agreed to amend the Standstill Agreement to clarify certain duties of the Reporting Person. On September 3, 1996, the Issuer and the Reporting Person entered into Amendment No.1 to the Standstill Agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment, which was effective as of April 16, 1996, provides that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Standstill Agreement, the Reporting Person must exercise his fiduciary duties in evaluating and considering any unsolicited offers or proposals for the acquisition of or merger with, or other proposed change in control of, the Issuer.
The Registration Rights Agreement dated as of the Closing Date by and among the Issuer and the Reporting Person, William A. Richardson, David R. Belding, Peter A. Simon II, Glenn W. Schaeffer, Gregg H. Solomon, Antonio C. Alamo, Anthony Korfman, William Ensign and Robert J. Verchota provides the Reporting Person with certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the Shares acquired by him pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
The Agreement Pursuant to Joint Venture Agreement dated as of the Closing Date by and among the Issuer and the Reporting Person, Glenn W. Schaeffer and William A. Richardson, which has terminated, required the foregoing individuals to jointly and severally pay to the Issuer liquidated damages upon the occurrence of certain events relating to (i) the management of a joint venture which is currently managed by an affiliate of the Issuer and (ii) such individuals’ employment with the Issuer or such individuals’ beneficial ownership of the capital stock of the Issuer.
On March 1, 2001, the Issuer granted to the Reporting Person the March 2001 Option, the terms of which are described in Item 3. The 333,334 Shares the Reporting Person will become entitled to purchase pursuant to the March 2001 Option beginning on March 1, 2004 have not been included in the number of Shares reported herein as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person because the right to acquire those shares does not become exercisable for more than 60 days following the date hereof.
The description of the terms of the Merger Agreement, Employment Agreement, Standstill Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement, Agreement Pursuant to Joint Venture Agreement and the March 2001 Option set forth herein does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties' rights and obligations, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreements, which are set forth as Exhibits 99.1 to 99.8 hereto. Reference is made to such agreements for a complete description of the terms and provisions thereof and the agreement of the parties thereunder.
Except as set forth above, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities of the Issuer, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees or profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, or a pledge or otherwise subject to a contingency the occurrence of which would give another person voting power or investment power over the securities of the Issuer.
