As discussed in Note 13, we are party to ongoing litigation with our non-profit partner, CCDC, in Lakeside, Iowa. We have accrued this amount based upon the amount stipulated in the memorandum of understanding we discussed with CCDC in contemplation of settling this litigation. Although we did not ultimately agree to the settlement and the litigation remains open, the accrual represents our best estimate of anticipated expense to settle the litigation. We recorded the expense in our Midwest segment.


2.	During 2013, we resolved outstanding issues related to disputed claims filed by the IRS related to the Predecessor’s bankruptcy case and reversed the accrual, recording accrual, recording write downs, reserves and recoveries income at the corporate level.


3.	During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, we recorded a correction in our Nevada segment which expensed previously-capitalized costs related to the environmental remediation work performed during the construction of our new travel center at Whiskey Pete’s Hotel & Casino. Expense (income) recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, are presented net of insurance recoveries.


4.	We closed the Henderson casino on December 11, 2013. This amount represents asset write offs and other expense related to the closing.
