Evacuation and Closure of Facilities

In connection with a mandate from the State of New Jersey to evacuate southern New Jersey's barrier islands due to anticipated severe weather and flooding, Atlantic City's casinos closed on August 26, 2011 and reopened on August 29, 2011. Trump Taj Mahal and Trump Plaza sustained only minor physical damage. The Company believes that its operations were negatively affected before, during and after the shutdown and estimates that the adverse effect on its income from operations was between $6,000 and $7,000.
