IMPORTANT FACTORS RELATING TO FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can
identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements contain words such as may, will, project, might, expect,
believe, anticipate, intend, could, would, estimate, continue or pursue, or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable terminology. In
particular, they include statements relating to, among other things, future actions, new projects, strategies, proposals, future performance, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings and future financial results. We have based these
forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events.



We caution the reader that forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted or quantified and, consequently, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following factors as well as other factors described from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC):



| |  | completion of the recently proposed recapitalization plan, intended to reduce indebtedness and provide capital (see Business; Recent Events), is subject to numerous
contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, and cannot be assured;
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | if the proposed recapitalization plan is not consummated, the Company will have to consider its alternatives, which may include transactions that may have unforeseeable consequences
to the holders of our common stock and the debt of our subsidiaries;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | our operating results may increasingly become uncertain if we are not able to make certain capital expenditures which we have not been able to make in light of our high levels of
indebtedness and related interest expense;
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the effect of economic, credit and capital market conditions on the economy in general, and on gaming and hotel companies in particular;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the effects of environmental and structural building conditions relating to our properties;
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | access to available and feasible financing and insurance;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  | changes in laws (including increased tax rates), regulations or accounting standards, insurance premiums, and third-party relations and approvals, and decisions of courts,
regulators and governmental bodies;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | litigation outcomes and judicial actions, including gaming legislative action, referenda and taxation;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | ability of our customer-tracking programs and marketing to continue to increase or sustain customer loyalty;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | our ability to recoup costs of capital investments through higher revenues;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | acts of war or terrorist incidents;
| | - | -----------------------------------



| |  | abnormal gaming hold percentages; and
| | - | -------------------------------------



| |  | the effects of competition, including locations of competitors and operating and market competition.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Any forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, speak
only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Recent Events



On February 12, 2004, Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts,
Inc., or THCR and together with its subsidiaries, the Company, announced that it has entered into an exclusivity agreement with DLJ Merchant Banking Partners III, L.P., or DLJMB, an affiliate of Credit Suisse First Boston, or CSFB, in connection
with a proposed $400 million equity investment by DLJMB to sponsor a comprehensive recapitalization of THCR, or the Potential Recapitalization.



Reasons for the Potential Recapitalization.The Company is very highly leveraged, with extensive secured borrowing by its operating level
subsidiaries. At December 31, 2003, the Companys ratio of total indebtedness to capital was approximately 331 to 1, and for the year then ended, cash interest expense was 1.5 times operating income.



Trump Atlantic City Associates, or Trump AC, had outstanding at December 31,
2003, $1.3 billion principal amount of 11.25% First Mortgage Notes due 2006, or the TAC Notes. The TAC Notes are guaranteed by the entities that own and operate the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort and Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, New
Jersey. Trump Casino Holdings, LLC, or TCH, had outstanding at December 31, 2003, two issues of mortgage notes, or the TCH Notes: (i) $425 million principal amount of 11.625% First Priority Mortgage Notes due 2010 and (ii) $66.8 million principal
amount of 17.625% Second Priority Mortgage Notes due 2010 (together with the TAC Notes, the Notes). The TCH Notes are guaranteed by the entities that own and operate the Trump Marina Hotel Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and the
Trump Indiana Riverboat in Gary, Indiana, as well as by the entity that manages Trump 29 Casino in Coachella, California. For further information concerning the Notes, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations; Summary of the Companys Public Indebtedness.



In recent periods, the Company has experienced increased competition and other challenges in its markets. The Company has also suffered reduced operating results. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations; Factors That May Affect Our Future Results and Liquidity and Capital Resources. Due to these factors and its very substantial debt service on the Notes, the Company has not been able
to reinvest in the maintenance of its owned properties at desired levels or expand its operations. In addition, THCR anticipates, but cannot ensure, that Trump AC will have sufficient funds from operations on hand to provide for the May 1, 2004
installment of interest then due and payable on the TAC Notes within the 30-day grace period provided under the indentures governing the TAC Notes. See Business; Competition and Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Also see the Report of Independent Auditors.



In light of these factors, management has explored alternatives in order to favorably resolve the situation for all of the Companys constituencies,
and the Board of Directors of THCR has established a special committee of independent directors, or the Special Committee, to oversee the process. THCR has retained UBS Investment Bank and other advisors, and the Special Committee has retained
different advisors, to assist in this process. Alternatives explored to date have included a possible sale of certain assets of the Companys subsidiaries, a restructuring of its indebtedness through out-of-court or in-court proceedings,
refinancing of indebtedness, attracting substantial new equity investment and analysis of various other restructuring and reinvestment scenarios. As a result of this process, the Company identified DLJMB as a potential investor, and based on
conversations to date with DLJMB, management and the Special Committee believe that the Potential Recapitalization is likely to afford the best available alternative for all of the Companys constituencies.



Terms of the Potential Recapitalization.DLJMBs proposed $400
million investment is expected to be in the form of THCRs common stock and limited partnership units of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts Holdings, L.P., or THCR Holdings. This investment would, if consummated, result in DLJMB becoming the
majority shareholder of THCR, with Donald J. Trump continuing as the Chairman of THCRs Board of Directors and as a significant equity holder. In connection with the Potential Recapitalization, THCR also intends to change its name to Trump
International Corporation. Although THCR has had extensive discussions with DLJMB regarding the Potential

Recapitalization, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreements with DLJMB regarding the Potential Recapitalization (other than the exclusivity
agreement with DLJMB and an agreement to pay DLJMB certain expenses and to pay a substantial fee if certain transactions occur without DLJMBs participation).



Certain holders of the TAC Notes have formed a committee, or the Noteholder Committee, to discuss the Potential
Recapitalization with the Company, and the Noteholder Committee has also engaged advisors.



The Potential Recapitalization depends upon the occurrence of several events, including:



| |  | a restructuring of the TAC Notes and TCH Notes that would reduce their face value, either through in or out of court proceedings;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | reaching definitive agreement with the Company and Mr. Trump concerning the specific terms of DLJMBs investment, including: (i) whether its investment is made directly in THCR
or in a subsidiary of THCR; (ii) the price (which may be, or be the equivalent of, or more or less than, the market prices for THCR common stock now or at the date of the definitive agreement); (iii) the amount and percentage ownership to be
acquired by DLJMB (although its investment would represent more than a majority in all scenarios discussed to date); (iv) the terms of corporate governance post-investment; (v) the potential resale of its investment; and (vi) the terms of the
Companys continued use of the Trump name and marks, and of Mr. Trumps continued service as Chairman (in exchange for which Mr. Trump is expected to receive additional equity and/or other consideration); and
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | receiving appropriate gaming regulatory approvals.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------



Whether or not the Potential Recapitalization will progress will depend on whether the Special Committee, DLJMB, key holders of the Notes and Mr. Trump
are able to agree on the definitive terms of the recapitalization that, once agreed to, would then be proposed for regulatory and other required consents and approvals. There is no assurance any such agreement will be reached, or that if it is
reached, that all necessary consents and approvals will be obtained.



The Company and DLJMB have proposed certain key terms of the Potential Recapitalization to the Noteholder Committee which may be different than the terms of a consummated recapitalization plan, if any.



Certain Possible Consequences of the Potential Recapitalization.If
the parties can agree on the terms of a Potential Recapitalization, they will likely seek to implement it through a series of steps, any one of which may not be successful, including the restructuring of the TAC Notes and TCH Notes which may, given
the number of holders of the Notes, be effected through a court approved plan of reorganization. In any such proceeding, the Company anticipates that trade creditors would be paid in full. There is no assurance that any such plan would be approved
by the requisite vote of stakeholders. It is also possible that, if a Company sponsored plan is not agreed upon, bondholders may propose any number of alternative plans, some of which may involve Noteholders seeking to foreclose on their collateral.
Pursuant to any plan, Noteholders may receive new notes, cash, other property, equity securities, or a combination of any of these. Any such new notes may be secured or unsecured, senior or subordinated, and have payment and other terms
substantially different from the TAC Notes or TCH Notes.



If
the Potential Recapitalization is approved and implemented, it should result in a substantial deleveraging of the Company and reduction in its debt service. If the plan is approved and implemented, the holders of common stock of THCR prior to the
transaction, including Mr. Trump (on account of his existing shares), are likely to have their existing interests substantially diluted, and the value of that interest may be less than now. Further, DLJMB will own a majority equity interest in the
Company (likely at the THCR or THCR Holdings level), and will be in a position to control the Company, subject to agreed upon contractual limitations on its rights, if any.

##### Table of Contents

Even if the plan is approved and implemented, and facilitates the desired expansion and development of
the Companys properties, the change may not lead to the hoped for increase in the volume and profitability of the Companys business.



Other Alternatives.If the Potential Recapitalization or other recapitalization plan is not consummated, the Company will continue to consider
alternatives to optimize stakeholder return, reduce its consolidated indebtedness and improve its capital structure, including the alternatives described above and others. There is no assurance that any such alternatives will be achieved.



General



THCR was formed in Delaware in March 1995 and has been a public company since June 1995. Our common stock is traded on the
New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol DJT. Our principal assets consist of our general and limited partnership interests in THCR Holdings, which holds through its subsidiaries substantially all of the assets of our business.
THCR Holdings partnership agreement, dated June 12, 1995, as amended, requires that all of our business activities be conducted through THCR Holdings or a subsidiary of THCR Holdings. As the sole general partner of THCR Holdings, we generally
have the exclusive rights, responsibilities and discretion as to the management and control of THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries. Our company is the exclusive vehicle through which Donald J. Trump, the Chairman of our Board of Directors and our
President and Chief Executive Officer and a limited partner of THCR Holdings, engages in gaming activities. Our company is separate and distinct from Mr. Trumps other holdings and business activities.



Through THCR Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, we own and/or manage
the following five casino hotel properties:



| |  | Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resorta destination resort located on the northern end of Atlantic Citys boardwalk. Opened in 1990 and acquired by us in April 1996, the
Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort, or Trump Taj Mahal, features 1,250 hotel rooms, including 242 suites, 19 dining and 12 beverage locations, parking for 6,950 cars, a 14-bay bus terminal and approximately 140,000 square feet of ballroom, meeting room
and pre-function area space. The Trump Taj Mahal also features 157,395 square feet of gaming space which includes 193 table games, 4,670 slot machines and an approximately 12,000 square-foot poker, Keno and Race Simulcasting room and an Asian-themed
table game area offering popular Asian table games. The Trump Taj Mahal also features: a 20,000 square foot multi-purpose entertainment complex known as the Xanadu Theater, with seating capacity for up to approximately 1,200 persons,
which can be used as a theater, concert hall, boxing arena or exhibition hall; the Casbah, a New York style nightclub; and the Mark G. Etess Arena featuring approximately 63,000 square feet of exhibition and entertainment space
accommodating up to 5,200 persons.

| |  | Trump Plaza Hotel and Casinoa resort located at the center of Atlantic Citys boardwalk and adjacent to Atlantic Citys renovated Boardwalk Hall (an
entertainment venue accommodating up to 13,000 people). Opened in 1984, Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino, or Trump Plaza, features 904 hotel rooms, including 143 suites, 91,181 square feet of casino space with 2,906 slot machines and 90 table games.
Amenities and services include approximately 36,000 square feet of conference space, an 800-seat cabaret theater, two cocktail lounges, five restaurants, two player clubs, a seasonal beach bar, health spa, an indoor pool, arcade, tennis courts and
six retail outlets. Trump Plaza is connected by an enclosed pedestrian walkway to a ten-story parking garage which can accommodate 14 buses and approximately 2,800 cars.
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Trump Marina Hotel Casinoopened in 1985 and acquired by us in October 1996, situated in Atlantic Citys rapidly developing marina district, Trump
Marina Hotel Casino, or Trump Marina, consists of a 27-story hotel with 728 guest rooms, including 153 suites, 97 of which are luxury suites. The casino offers approximately 79,700 square feet of gaming space, 2,501 slot machines, 75 table games, a
simulcast racetrack facility and 58,000 square feet of convention, ballroom and meeting space. Trump Marina also features a 540-seat cabaret-style theater, a nightclub, two player clubs, two retail stores, seven restaurants, a cocktail lounge and a
pool side snack bar. To facilitate access to the property,

| | Trump Marina has a nine-story parking garage capable of accommodating approximately 3,000 cars. Trump Marina also has 11 bus bays and a roof-top helipad.
| | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Trump Indiana Casino Hotela riverboat casino located approximately 25 miles from downtown Chicago and catering primarily to the northwest Indiana and Chicago markets.
Opened in June 1996, Trump Indiana Casino Hotel, or Trump Indiana, is located conveniently near I-80/95 and I-90 on a 280-foot gaming vessel with 43,000 square feet of gaming space, 1,600 slot machines, 42 table games which include 12 poker tables
and the capacity to accommodate approximately 2,700 passengers. Trump Indiana operates in Buffington Harbor, an approximately 100-acre site in Gary, Indiana. Our docking facility and land-based pavilion, which we share with our joint venture
partner, Majestic Star Casino, LLC, or Majestic Star, includes a 40,000 square foot pavilion housing meeting space, a buffet, a steakhouse restaurant, several restaurant kiosks, bars and lounges, gift shops, staging and ticketing areas, surface
parking for 2,300 automobiles and a 300-room hotel. Through another joint venture with an affiliate of Majestic Star, we also own the site immediately adjacent to Trump Indiana, which includes a parking garage that accommodates up to 2,000 cars. See
Business; Certain Agreements; Buffington Harbor Joint Venture.

Since August 2002, the State of Indiana has permitted riverboat casinos to implement dockside gaming, which we have adopted. Dockside gaming eliminates Trump Indianas need to cruise which required patrons to
wait for boarding times that had previously been scheduled every two hours. Effective July 11, 2003, the State of Indiana permitted riverboat casinos to operate 24 hours per day. In addition, the State of Indiana also passed legislation that allows
a person or entity to own up to 100.0% in no more than two riverboat licenses. Previously, a person or entity could simultaneously own up to 100.0% in one riverboat owners license and no more than 10.0% in a second riverboat owners
license.



| |  | Trump 29 Casinolocated in Coachella, California near Palm Springs and featuring a desert-style floor setting. Reopened under its new name, Trump 29 Casino, in April
2002, we manage Trump 29 Casino, or Trump 29, pursuant to a management agreement with the Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Luiseno Mission Indians of California, or the Tribe. Trump 29 is owned by the Tribe through its sole ownership of the Twenty-Nine
Palms Enterprises Corporation, or Twenty-Nine Palms. Trump 29 has 80,000 square feet of gaming space, approximately 1,997 slot machines and 35 table games. Trump 29 also features a 5,000 square foot ballroom, a 2,200 seat theater-type showroom, a
fine-dining steakhouse and a food court. See Business; Certain Agreements; Trump 29 Management Agreement.

We believe that our properties derive substantial benefit from the widespread recognition of the Trump name and its association with high quality amenities and first class service. Our properties use the Trump name to attract
business at each site where we seek to provide an exciting gaming and entertainment experience tailored to the primary patrons in each of our markets.



In this Form 10-K, the term Trump Atlantic City Properties includes Trump Taj Mahal, Trump Plaza and Trump Marina. Trump Casino
Properties includes the Trump Atlantic City Properties and Trump Indiana. Unless otherwise noted, the terms we, us, and our includes THCR, THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries.



Business and Marketing Strategy



We consistently evaluate our properties and their amenities in order to
remain competitive. From time to time, changes are made to our properties in response to patron demand either on an industry-wide or property-specific basis. Below is a brief description of our business and marketing strategy:



Focus on Slot Revenues. We continue to emphasize our slot business,
the most consistently profitable and predictable segment of our gaming revenues. We strive to offer a wide variety of games and marketing programs to attract slot customers and to encourage them to play for longer periods of time in order to promote
the stability of our gaming revenues. As part of this focus, we are committed to providing our customers with the latest themed slot machines and gaming technology. In addition, we have continued to improve the Trump Casino Properties slot
floors and have changed our marketing and customer loyalty programs to reward our most important slot customers by offering rooms and benefits that were previously reserved for table players.



Ticket In-Ticket Out, or TITO, gaming is an alternative payment method to
coin handling on the casino slot floor. Casino operators can program a slot machine to pay a slot payout, or a portion thereof, with a ticket. The ticket can then be reinserted into another TITO slot machine, be exchanged for cash at a
cashiers station or held by the player and used at a later time. At December 31, 2003, Trump Taj Mahal, Trump Plaza and Trump Marina had 1,900, 1,746 and 1,357 TITO slot machines, respectively, representing approximately 41.0%, 60.0% and 54.0%
of their respective slot floors. Trump Indiana and Trump 29 had 1,257 and 660 TITO slot machines, respectively, representing approximately 76.0% and 33.0% of their respective slot floors. We anticipate having nearly all of the Trump Casino
Properties slot machines operating with TITO gaming technology during 2004. We believe that TITO slot machines enhance slot patrons gaming experience as well as reduce overhead, labor and costs associated with operating a slot floor.
Also, preliminary results have shown an increase in coin-in and win per unit per day for TITO test units.

Targeted Marketing and Promotion. We actively promote our casinos, entertainment offerings, hotels
and restaurants by using a variety of media, including billboard and other outdoor signage, print, broadcast and the Internet. In addition, we employ marketing representatives as a means of attracting gaming patrons to our properties. We have
developed and maintain extensive and targeted customer databases. We also employ a focused direct-mail program, integrated with our player tracking systems, to efficiently target our database customers with a variety of promotional programs to
enhance customer loyalty. Promotional events in 2003 included gift giveaways, sweepstakes, slot tournaments and Asian and other ethnic events which were designed to increase our frequent player programs. We estimate that approximately 75% of our
gaming revenues at Trump Plaza come from rated players (i.e., players in our database targeted for promotional programs), approximately 75% at the Trump Taj Mahal, approximately 88% at Trump Marina and approximately 59% at Trump Indiana, evidencing
our ability to attract our targeted customers.



Maintain
Stringent Cost Controls. We have achieved significant cost savings in the past through several initiatives. These initiatives include matching employee schedules more efficiently to peak business hours and implementing our more efficient cash
reward programs that generate higher revenue at a lower cost than previous cash reward programs. Coupled with our targeted marketing approach, we have been able to lower marketing costs and increase revenues at the Trump Casino Properties without
sacrificing customer service.



Premium Entertainment. We
pursue a program of providing headline entertainment at our properties. These entertainment offerings, which generate incremental revenue through ticket sales, also increase pedestrian traffic in our hotels, restaurants and casinos. In addition, we
coordinate entertainment events to coincide with slot player promotions to maximize the number of customers and gaming play in our casinos.



New Developments and Potential Opportunities



Canouan Island. In September 2003, THCR agreed to provide management services to Canouan Resorts Development, Ltd., which has developed a resort
complex on Canouan Island in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Canouan Resorts has a 99-year lease with the government of St. Vincent to develop 1,200 acres on the island. Donald Trump has also agreed to assist in the development and marketing of
luxury villas and estate properties at the location. THCR Management Company, LLC, a subsidiary of THCR Holdings, will manage the club style, 8,600 square foot casino for an initial five-year term, commencing about June 1, 2004, subject to an
additional term of five years if certain revenue and budget targets are met. The casino will offer a full range of table games in elegant surroundings.



Nevada Gaming. In connection with Mr. Trumps purchase of 10% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Riviera Holdings Corporation
and granting to THCR and THCR Holdings options to purchase such stock, Mr. Trump, THCR, THCR Holdings, THCRs directors and certain affiliates and executive officers of THCR were required to file applications with the Nevada Gaming Commission
for a finding of suitability to hold the Riviera Stock. On February 19, 2004, the Nevada Gaming Commission issued an order of registration confirming such suitability. See Certain Relationships and Related Transactions; Riviera Holdings
Corporation.



The Atlantic City Market



The Atlantic City market serves the New
York-Philadelphia-Baltimore-Washington, D.C. corridor with nearly 30 million adults living within a three-hour driving radius and has historically generated consistent growth in gaming revenues. The Atlantic City gaming market currently consists of
12 casino properties with a total of 14,264 hotel rooms and approximately 1.4 million square feet of gaming space containing approximately 42,000 slot machines and approximately 1,400 table games.



Other gaming operators in Atlantic City have announced or recently completed
new development or expansion projects. The Borgata Casino Hotel and Spa, or the Borgata, a casino resort complex developed in Atlantic Citys marina district through a joint venture between MGM Mirage, Inc. and Boyd Gaming Corporation, opened
in July of 2003 and is the first new casino in Atlantic City in 13 years. The Borgata, located on a 25-acre site, features a 40 story tower with approximately 2,000 rooms and suites, a 135,000 square foot casino, restaurants, retail shops, a spa and
pool, and entertainment venues. In 2002, also in the marina district, Harrahs completed construction of an additional hotel tower with 452 rooms and expanded its casino floor to include 950 additional slot machines. We believe that these
projects will, in the long term, attract additional visitors to the marina district.



In addition, Caesars Entertainment, Inc. (formerly Park Place Entertainment, Inc.) connected its Ballys and Claridge properties in July 2002 and merged the properties into a single casino resort in December
2002. In

##### Table of Contents

December 2002, Caesars began renovating the adjacent Ocean One Mall into an upscale retail and entertainment complex, which is expected to be completed in
2005. Additionally Ballys and Caesars announced plans for the construction of a 3,189 space parking garage to be built in conjunction with the New Jersey Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, or the CRDA, to provide parking for their
operations, the Atlantic City Medical Center and the recently opened The Walk retail and entertainment complex.



In May, 2003, Showboat Casino Hotel completed the construction of a 544 room hotel tower.



In April 2002, Aztar Corp. commenced its expansion of its Tropicana Atlantic City property. The expansion will include an
additional 502 hotel rooms and a 200,000 square foot retail, dining and entertainment complex and is anticipated to be completed in the fall of 2004.



In September 2002, Resorts Atlantic City commenced demolition of one of its towers and is replacing it with a 459 room hotel tower expected to be
completed in the second quarter of 2004.



Historically, there
has been a shortage of available rooms in Atlantic City on the weekends during the peak spring and summer seasons and on long holiday weekends in other parts of the year. We believe that the addition of hotel rooms in Atlantic City would benefit the
overall Atlantic City market by increasing patrons visits and perhaps the duration of patrons visits during these peak seasons and weekends. See Business; Seasonality.



Northwest Indiana/Chicagoland Market



The northwest Indiana and the greater Chicago metropolitan market, known as
the Chicagoland market, is the third largest gaming market in the United States, generating approximately $2.3 billion in revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003. As of December 31, 2003, the Chicagoland market featured nine
casinos, over 1,000 hotel rooms and over 390,000 square feet of gaming space containing 13,343 slot machines and 382 table games.



From 1998 to 2003, total gaming revenues in the Chicagoland market have increased approximately 51.7%, during which period only two new facilities opened.
The Chicagoland market is the third most populated metropolitan area in the United States. Furthermore, the population and average income in the Chicagoland market rank highest among all United States riverboat gaming markets. Entrance into the
market is limited by the fixed number of gaming licenses available in Indiana and Illinois. Currently, a maximum of 11 licenses are permitted in Indiana, of which 10 have already been issued (five on Lake Michigan, including Trump Indiana, and five
on the Ohio River), and a maximum of 10 licenses are permitted in Illinois, of which nine have been issued. The remaining Indiana license was granted to Orange County in the southern portion of the state, and the remaining Illinois license has been
granted to Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. to operate a casino in Rosemont, Illinois.



There has been limited casino development and expansion activity in the areas surrounding Trump Indiana. In February 2002, Harrahs completed construction on a new 293-room luxury hotel at its East Chicago,
Indiana property.



Southern California Market



Trump 29 is located in Californias Coachella Valley in Riverside
County, near Palm Springs. The property is located just off Interstate 10, with an estimated 27,000 vehicles passing by Trump 29 each day. Riverside County offers Trump 29 a rapidly growing local market, with population having risen over 130% from
1980 to 2000 to reach approximately 1.6 million people. In addition, Coachella is located within 175 miles of Californias three largest metropolitan areas, Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego, with a combined 2000 population of
approximately 15.2 million people.



Competition



Atlantic City



Atlantic City. Competition in the Atlantic City is intense and is
increasing. At the present time, there are 12 casino hotels located in Atlantic City which compete with each other on the basis of customer service and quality and extent of amenities, including each of the Trump Atlantic City Properties. For this
reason, substantial capital expenditures are required to compete effectively. Substantial new expansion and development activity has recently been completed, is under construction, or has been announced in Atlantic City at other properties,
including the opening of the Borgata in July 2003. Increased competition is one reason we are pursuing a comprehensive recapitalization plan. See Business; The Atlantic City Market.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, we believe that there are several other sites on the boardwalk and in the marina district on
which casino hotels could be built in the future, and various applications for casino licenses have been filed and announcements with respect thereto have been made from time to time. There can be no assurance that proposed and future developments
and expansions will not have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. There also can be no assurances that any Atlantic City development projects, which are planned or in process, will be completed. See Business; Recent
Events and Business; The Atlantic City Market.



Native American Tribes. The Trump Atlantic City Properties also face considerable competition from casino facilities in a number of states operated by federally recognized Native American tribes, such as Foxwoods Resorts Casino in
Ledyard, Connecticut and Mohegan Sun Casino Resort in Uncasville, Connecticut. Pursuant to the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, or the IGRA, which was passed by Congress in 1988, any state which permits casino-style gaming (even if only for limited
charity purposes) is required to negotiate gaming compacts with federally recognized Native American tribes. Under the IGRA, Native American tribes enjoy comparative freedom from regulation and taxation of gaming operations, which provides them with
an advantage over their competitors, including the Trump Atlantic City Properties.



In addition, Native American nations are seeking federal recognition, land and negotiation of gaming compacts in New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and other states near Atlantic City. If successful, there can be no
assurance that additional casinos built in or near this portion of the United States would not have a material adverse effect on the business and operations of the Trump Atlantic City Properties.



New Jersey State Legislation. In September 2002, the New Jersey State
Legislature proposed an amendment to the New Jersey constitution that, if approved by the citizens of New Jersey in a general election, would permit the legislature to adopt legislation permitting slot machines at the Meadowlands Racetrack in East
Rutherford, New Jersey. If New Jerseys constitution were to be so amended and such legislation adopted, slot machines at the Meadowlands would compete to some extent with Atlantic Citys casinos, including the Trump Atlantic City
Properties, for gaming patrons.



New York State
Legislation. In October 2001, the State of New York, citing a statewide economic crisis precipitated by the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on New York City, passed legislation permitting video lottery terminals, or VLTs, at five harness
racetracks and further allows the governor to negotiate Class III gaming compacts with Native American tribes for up to six resort-scale casinos. The legislation allows three tribal resort scale casinos in the Catskills, within 90 minutes of New
York City, and the other three in the Buffalo-Niagara Falls area. The three Buffalo-Niagara Falls resort scale casinos would join two existing Indian casinos, the Turning Stone, operated by the Oneida Nation near Syracuse and one owned by the St.
Regis Mohawks, near the Canadian Border.



On January 28, 2004,
Saratoga Gaming and Raceway in upstate New York opened a gaming facility featuring approximately 1,300 VLTs and on February 18, 2004, Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack in upstate New York also opened a gaming facility featuring approximately 1,000
VLTs. In March 2004, New York States third racino at Buffalo Raceway in Hamburg opened with 990 VLTs. MGM Mirage, a major casino gaming company, has announced that it has an understanding with the New York Racing Association (NYRA)
to manage VLTs at the Aqueduct horseracing track in metropolitan New York, subject to certain conditions. Competition from these properties and other properties, when opened, could have a material adverse effect on the Trump Atlantic City
Properties.



Other States. Legislation permitting other
forms of casino gaming has been proposed, from time to time, in various states, including those bordering the State of New Jersey. Six states have presently legalized riverboat gambling while others are considering its approval, including the State
of New York and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Several states are considering or have approved large-scale land-based casinos. The business and operations of the Trump Atlantic City Properties could be adversely affected by such competition,
particularly if casino gaming were permitted in jurisdictions near or elsewhere in New Jersey or in other states in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. Currently, casino gaming, other than Native American gaming, is not allowed in other areas of New
Jersey or in Connecticut, New York or Pennsylvania. To the extent that legalized gaming becomes more prevalent in New Jersey or other jurisdictions near Atlantic City, competition would further intensify. In particular, proposals have been
introduced to legalize gaming in other locations, including Pennsylvania and Maryland. The legislative proposals in Pennsylvania would allow for a wide range of gaming activities, including riverboat gaming, slots at racetracks, video lottery
terminals at liquor stores and the formation of a gaming commission. Marylands proposed legislation would authorize VLTs at some of Marylands racing facilities. The results of the 2002 gubernatorial elections in Pennsylvania and Maryland
have also increased the likelihood of gaming legislation in such states. We

are unable to predict whether any such legislation, in such states or elsewhere, will be enacted or whether, if passed, would have material adverse effect on
the Trump Atlantic City Properties.



Chicagoland



Competition in the Chicagoland market is intense. We
believe that competition in the gaming industry, particularly the riverboat and dockside gaming industry, is based on a combination of quality and location of gaming facilities, the implementation of effective marketing strategies and customer
service and satisfaction. Trump Indiana is seeking a competitive advantage primarily based upon its proximity to, and direct access from Chicago, extensive parking facilities, name recognition, a superior gaming vessel and gaming experience, and
targeted marketing strategies. Although we believe that the location of Trump Indiana allows it to compete effectively with other casinos in the surrounding geographic area, management expects competition in the casino gaming industry to become more
intense as casinos are opened and new entrants into the gaming industry become even more operational.



Trump Indiana competes primarily with riverboats and other casinos in the Chicagoland market. Although northwest Indiana is part of the Chicagoland
market, which is one of the most successful new gaming markets in the United States, Trump Indiana may be more dependent on patrons from northwest Indiana than its Illinois competitors, and the propensity of these patrons to wager cannot be
predicted with any degree of certainty. In addition to competing with Majestic Stars riverboat at the Buffington Harbor site, Trump Indiana competes with three other riverboats in the northwest Indiana market. To a lesser degree, Trump Indiana
competes with five operating riverboats located in southern Indiana. In addition, a casino opened during 1994 in Windsor, Ontario. In 1997, Detroit approved land-based casino gaming with a limit of three licenses for the metropolitan area, and
selected the operators for the licenses. Two of these land-based casinos opened for operation in 1999 and the third opened in 2000.



At the present time, there are four other riverboats in the Chicago, Illinois area. On March 15, 2004, the Illinois Gaming Board granted Isle of Capri
Casinos, Inc. a license to operate in Rosemont, Illinois which is located in the Chicagoland area. The Illinois Legislature also authorized gaming on barges in Illinois. In addition to barge gaming, which facilitates a larger casino floor than a
conventional boat, Illinois gaming regulators relaxed ownership hurdles, allowing operators to own more than one casino in the state. There can be no assurance that Indiana will follow suit in allowing gaming on barges. Effective July 11, 2003, the
State of Indiana permitted riverboat casinos to operate 24 hours per day. In 2003, the State of Indiana passed legislation that allows a person or entity to own up to 100.0% in no more than two riverboat licenses. Previously, a person or entity
could simultaneously own up to 100.0% in one riverboat owners license and no more than 10.0% in a second riverboat owners license.



Southern California



Competition in the Southern California market is also intense. Trump 29 principally competes with other tribal casinos in the Palm Springs area. At the
present time, fifteen tribal casinos are open in the Southern California market, five of which directly compete with Trump 29 and are located within a 45-mile radius from Trump 29, and other Indian tribes may receive approval to engage in casino
gaming. Trump 29s five principal competitors are Fantasy Springs Casino, Agua Caliente, Spa Hotel and Casino, Casino Morongo and Augustine Casino.



Certain Agreements



We are party to certain agreements, some of which are described below. See Executive Compensation; Employment Agreements, Termination of Employment
and Change-in-Control Arrangements, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; Financial ConditionSummary of Companys Public Indebtedness and Certain Relationships
and Related Transactions.



Buffington Harbor Joint
Venture



In June 1995, Trump Indiana, Inc. acquired
approximately 88 acres of land at Buffington Harbor in Gary, Indiana, or the Buffington Harbor Site, for an aggregate purchase price of $13.5 million from the Lehigh Portland Cement Company, or Lehigh. Trump Indiana, Inc. also leased certain of
Lehighs property adjacent to the Buffington Harbor Site for the docking of Trump Indiana Inc.s casino vessel (the Harbor Lease Agreement). Trump Indiana, Inc. contributed the Buffington Harbor Site and its rights under the Harbor Lease
Agreement to Buffington Harbor Riverboats, LLC, or BHR, a 50/50 joint venture between Trump Indiana, Inc. and Majestic Star in connection with the formation of BHR. Pursuant to Trump Indiana Inc.s and Majestic Stars joint venture

##### Table of Contents

agreement, or the BHR Agreement, BHR owns, develops and operates all common land-based and waterside operations in support of Trump Indianas and
Majestic Stars separate riverboat casinos at Buffington Harbor. Trump Indiana, Inc. and Majestic Star are each equally responsible for the development and the operating expenses of BHR.



In September 2000, THCR and an affiliate of Majestic Star formed a joint
venture, Buffington Harbor Parking Associates, or BHPA, for the purpose of constructing and operating a parking garage (the Indiana Parking Garage). In September 2000, BHPA acquired approximately 14 additional acres of land (not including the
Buffington Harbor Site) previously leased from Lehigh for the construction of the Indiana Parking Garage for an aggregate purchase price of $14.2 million, and the Harbor Lease Agreement was terminated. The construction of the Indiana Parking Garage
commenced in the second quarter of 2001 and was completed in the second quarter of 2002.



BHPA separately leases the Indiana Parking Garage to each of (i) Trump Indiana, Inc. pursuant to a parking lease, dated June 19, 2001, or the Trump Indiana Garage Lease, and (ii) Majestic Star under a substantially
identical lease agreement. The term of the Trump Indiana Garage Lease is until December 31, 2018. The initial rent installment, paid by Trump Indiana, Inc. upon the execution of the Trump Indiana Garage Lease, was $8.4 million. In addition, Trump
Indiana, Inc. is obligated to pay BHPA a monthly rent equal to (i) 50.0% of BHPAs debt service on the $17.1 million financing to build the Indiana Parking Garage and (ii) 50.0% of any construction costs incurred by BHPA in excess of the net
proceeds of the financing. In the event either party defaults on its rental obligations under its respective garage lease with BHPA, the other party will be obligated to pay rent in an amount sufficient to satisfy 100.0% of BHPAs debt service
obligations on the financing.



Casino Services Agreement



We service the Trump Casino Properties and Trump 29 and
manage their administrative overhead costs through a casino services agreement, dated January 1, 1998, as amended, or the Casino Services Agreement, with Trump Administration, a division of Trump Taj Mahal Associates, or Taj Associates, a subsidiary
which operates the Trump Taj Mahal. Trump Administration assumed the rights and responsibilities of the Casino Services Agreement when we merged Trump Casino Services, LLC, or TCS, into Taj Associates in December 2000. Pursuant to the Casino
Services Agreement, Trump Administration provides each of our properties with managerial, financial, accounting, purchasing, legal and other services incidental to running a casino and hotel, collectively referred to as the Casino
Services. In return, the properties reimburse Trump Administration, on a ratable basis, all of the costs and expenses incurred by Trump Administration in providing the Casino Services, including all payroll and employee benefits and related
costs associated with the employees utilized by Trump Administration, as well as all overhead and other expenses incurred in the ordinary course of providing such services. We believe that the Casino Services Agreement allows us to take advantage of
economies of scale and realize substantial cost savings. The Casino Services Agreement expires on January 1, 2008, unless earlier terminated upon 90 days prior written notice.



Marina Lease



Pursuant to Marina Associates agreement with the New Jersey Division of Parks and Forestry, we operate a 645-boat slip marina adjacent to Trump
Marina. Pursuant to the agreement and a lease entered into in September 1990 with the State of New Jersey, Marina Associates leases the marina and improvements thereon for an initial term of 25 years. Pursuant to the marina lease, Marina Associates
pays annual rent equal to the greater of (i) a certain percentage of Marina Associates gross revenues from operating the marina or (ii) a minimum amount ($400,000 in 2003 and which will increase every five years to $500,000 in 2010). In
addition, Marina Associates is responsible for all of the costs and expenses related to the premises, including but not limited to, all maintenance and repair costs, insurance premiums, real estate taxes, assessments and utility charges. Also, any
improvements made to the marina (excluding an elevated pedestrian walkway which we constructed and which connects Trump Marina to a two-story building containing a restaurant and retail and office space) automatically becomes the property of the
State of New Jersey upon the termination of the lease.



Trademark License Agreement



Subject to
certain restrictions, we have the exclusive world-wide right to use the Trump name and Mr. Trumps likeness in connection with gaming and related activities pursuant to a trademark license agreement, dated June 12, 1995, and the
amendments thereto, between Mr. Trump, as licensor, and THCR, as licensee (Trademark License Agreement). Pursuant to the Trademark License Agreement, we are permitted to use the names Trump, Donald J. Trump and variations
thereof, collectively referred to as the Trump Names, and related intellectual property rights, or the Marks, in connection with casino and gaming activities and related services and products.

##### Table of Contents

We, in turn, allow our subsidiaries and properties to use the Trump Names and Marks under various parol licenses which do not create enforceable licenses.
The Trademark License Agreement, however, does not restrict Mr. Trumps right to use or further license the Trump Names and Marks in connection with services and products other than casino services and related products.



The term of the Trademark License Agreement is until the later of: (i) June
2015, (ii) such time as Mr. Trump and his affiliates own less than a 15.0% voting interest in THCR or (iii) such time as Mr. Trump ceases to be employed or retained by THCR pursuant to an employment, management, consulting or similar services
agreement. Upon expiration of the Trademark License Agreement, Mr. Trump is required to grant THCR a non-exclusive, worldwide and royalty free license to use the casino related trademarks for a reasonable transition period on terms to be agreed upon
between us and Mr. Trump. Mr. Trumps obligations under the Trademark License Agreement are secured by a security agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Trump has granted THCR a first priority security interest in the Trump Names and the related
intellectual property rights for use in connection with casino services, as well as related hotel, bar and restaurant services. See Executive Compensation; Employment Agreements, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements;
Donald J. Trump, Executive Compensation; Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation; Trademark License Agreement and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions; Trademark License Agreement.



Trump 29 Management Agreement



We, through Trump 29 Services, manage and direct all of the day-to-day
operations of Trump 29 pursuant to an amended and restated gaming facility management agreement, dated as of March 28, 2002, with the Tribe and Twenty-Nine Palms. The management agreement was approved by the National Indian Gaming Commission, or the
NIGC, on April 15, 2002, commenced on April 16, 2002 and expires on April 16, 2007.



Pursuant to our management agreement with the Tribe, an annual management fee equal to 30.0% of net revenues of Trump 29 (as defined in the management agreement) is payable to Trump 29 Services for each year of the
term. The management fee is payable monthly in arrears. Payment of the monthly management fee is subordinate to the debt service on Twenty-Nine Palms bank debt and is payable after certain other monthly priority payments are made or reserve
requirements are satisfied, including the payment of operating expenses of Trump 29 (excluding the management fee) and various debt service reserve requirements required by Twenty-Nine Palms loan agreement. If revenues of Trump 29 are less
than the amount necessary to pay any required amount under the management agreement in any given month, Trump 29 Services is obligated to advance the funds necessary to pay the minimum guaranteed monthly payment to the Tribe.



Twenty-Nine Palms revenues have been pledged to its lenders as security
for its bank debt and Trump 29 Services has subordinated its right to receive management fees to the payment by the Tribe of its bank debt. As a result of this pledge and subordination, until the Tribes bank debt is paid in full, Trump 29
Services may not accept or receive any prepayment of its management fee or accept or receive any payment from the Tribe in respect of the management fee if a default has occurred and is continuing under the Tribes bank debt, or if such payment
of the management fee would result in a default under the Tribes bank debt. Trump 29 Services has also guaranteed Twenty-Nine Palms obligations to its bank lenders up to an amount not to exceed $2.5 million.



On or after May 31, 2005, Twenty-Nine Palms has the right to purchase all of
the rights of Trump 29 Services under the management agreement upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including payment to Trump 29 Services of an early termination fee. Such fee would be equal to one and one-half times the aggregate management
fee payable to Trump 29 Services for the twelve-month period preceding the notice of early termination. If Twenty-Nine Palms were to exercise this right, Trump 29 Services would not generate any further revenues from the management agreement.

Casino Control Commission. The ownership and operation of casino/hotel facilities in Atlantic City are the subject of
strict state regulation under the Casino Control Act. The New Jersey Casino Control Commission, or the CCC, is empowered to regulate a wide spectrum of gaming and non-gaming related activities and to approve the form of ownership and financial
structure of not only a casino licensee, but also its entity qualifiers and intermediary and holding companies and any other related entity required to be qualified.



Operating Licenses. In June 2003, the CCC consolidated and renewed Marina Associates, Plaza Associates
and Taj Associates (collectively, the Trump AC Licensees) licenses to operate Trump Marina, Trump Plaza and Trump Taj Mahal, respectively, until June 2007.



Casino Licenses. No casino hotel facility may operate unless the appropriate license and approvals are obtained from
the CCC, which has broad discretion with regard to the issuance, renewal, revocation and suspension of such licenses and approvals, which are non-transferable. The qualification criteria with respect to the holder of a casino license include its
financial stability, integrity and responsibility; the integrity and adequacy of its financial resources which bear any relation to the casino project; its good character, honesty and integrity; and the sufficiency of its business ability and casino
experience to establish the likelihood of a successful, efficient casino operation. The casino license currently held by each of Trump AC Licensees is renewable for periods of up to four years. The CCC may reopen licensing hearings at any time, and
must reopen a licensing hearing at the request of the Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE).



To be considered financially stable, a licensee must demonstrate the following abilities: to pay winning wagers when due; to achieve an annual gross
operating profit; to pay all local, state and federal taxes when due; to make necessary capital and maintenance expenditures to insure that it has a superior first-class facility; and to pay, exchange, refinance or extend debts which will mature or
become due and payable during the license term.



In the event a
licensee fails to demonstrate financial stability, the CCC may take such action as it deems necessary to fulfill the purposes of the Casino Control Act and protect the public interest, including: issuing conditional licenses, approvals or
determinations; establishing an appropriate cure period; imposing reporting requirements; placing restrictions on the transfer of cash or the assumption of liabilities; requiring reasonable reserves or trust accounts; denying licensure; or
appointing a conservator.



Pursuant to the Casino Control Act
and the regulations and precedent of the CCC, no entity may hold a casino license unless each officer, director, principal employee, person who directly or indirectly holds any beneficial interest or ownership in the licensee, each person who in the
opinion of the CCC has the ability to control or elect a majority of the board of directors of the licensee (other than a banking or other licensed lending institution which makes a loan or holds a mortgage or other lien acquired in the ordinary
course of business) and any lender,



13



---

##### Table of Contents

underwriter, agent or employee of the licensee or other person whom the CCC may consider appropriate, obtains and maintains qualification approval from the
CCC. Qualification approval means that such person must, but for residence, individually meet the qualification requirements as a casino key employee.



Control Persons. An entity qualifier or intermediary or holding company, such as THCR, THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries: Trump Casino Holdings,
or TCH, Trump Marina, Inc., Trump AC Associates, or Trump AC, Trump Atlantic City Holding, Inc., or Trump AC Holding, and Trump Atlantic City Corporation, or TACC, is required to register with the CCC and meet the same basic standards for approval
as a casino licensee; provided, however, that the CCC, with the concurrence of the Director of the DGE, may waive compliance by a publicly-traded corporate holding company with the requirement that an officer, director, lender, underwriter, agent or
employee thereof, or person directly or indirectly holding a beneficial interest or ownership of the securities thereof, individually qualify for approval under casino key employee standards so long as the CCC and the Director of the DGE are, and
remain, satisfied that such officer, director, lender, underwriter, agent or employee is not significantly involved in the activities of the casino licensee, or that such security holder does not have the ability to control the publicly-traded
corporate holding company or elect one or more of its directors. Persons holding 5.0% or more of the equity securities of such holding company are presumed to have the ability to control the company or elect one or more of its directors and will,
unless this presumption is rebutted, be required to individually qualify. Equity securities are defined as any voting stock or any security similar to or convertible into or carrying a right to acquire any security having a direct or indirect
participation in the profits of the issuer.



Financial
Sources. The CCC may require all financial backers, investors, mortgagees, bond holders and holders of notes or other evidence of indebtedness, either in effect or proposed, which bear any relation to any casino project, including holders of
publicly-traded securities of an entity which holds a casino license or is an entity qualifier, subsidiary or holding company of a casino licensee, to qualify as financial sources. In the past, the CCC has waived the qualification requirement for
holders of less than 15.0% of a series of publicly-traded mortgage bonds so long as the bonds remained widely distributed and freely traded in the public market and the holder had no ability to control the casino licensee. The CCC may require
holders of less than 15.0% of a series of debt to qualify as financial sources even if not active in the management of the issuer or casino licensee.



Institutional Investors. An institutional investor is defined by the Casino Control Act as any retirement fund administered by a public agency for
the exclusive benefit of federal, state or local public employees; any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; any collective investment trust organized by banks under Part Nine of the Rules of the
Comptroller of the Currency; any closed end investment trust; any chartered or licensed life insurance company or property and casualty insurance company; any banking and other chartered or licensed lending institution; any investment advisor
registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and such other persons as the CCC may determine for reasons consistent with the policies of the Casino Control Act.



An institutional investor may be granted a waiver by the CCC from financial source or other qualification requirements
applicable to a holder of publicly-traded securities, in the absence of a prima facie showing by the DGE that there is any cause to believe that the holder may be found unqualified, on the basis of the CCCs findings that: (i) its holdings were
purchased for investment purposes only and, upon request by the CCC, it files a certified statement to the effect that it has no intention of influencing or affecting the affairs of the issuer, the casino licensee or its holding or intermediary
companies; provided, however, that the institutional investor will be permitted to vote on matters put to the vote of the outstanding security holders; and (ii) if (x) the securities are debt securities of a casino licensees holding or
intermediary companies or another subsidiary company of the casino licensees holding or intermediary companies which is related in any way to the financing of the casino licensee and represent either (A) 20.0% or less of the total outstanding
debt of the company or (B) 50.0% or less of any issue of outstanding debt of the company, (y) the securities are equity securities and represent less than 10.0% of the equity securities of a casino licensees holding or intermediary companies
or (z) the securities so held exceed such percentages, upon a showing of good cause. There can be no assurance, however, that the CCC will make such findings or grant such



14

##### Table of Contents

waiver and, in any event, an institutional investor may be required to produce for the CCC or the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice upon
request, any document or information which bears any relation to such debt or equity securities.



Generally, the CCC requires each institutional holder seeking waiver of qualification to execute a certification to the effect that (i) the holder has
reviewed the definition of Institutional Investor under the Casino Control Act and believes that it meets the definition of Institutional Investor; (ii) the holder purchased the securities for investment purposes only and holds them in the ordinary
course of business; (iii) the holder has no involvement in the business activities of and no intention of influencing or affecting, the affairs of the issuer, the casino licensee or any affiliate; and (iv) if the holder subsequently determines to
influence or affect the affairs of the issuer, the casino licensee or any affiliate, it shall provide not less than 30 days prior notice of such intent and shall file with the CCC an application for qualification before taking any such action.
If an Institutional Investor changes its investment intent, or if the CCC finds reasonable cause to believe that it may be found unqualified, the Institutional Investor may take no action with respect to the security holdings, other than to divest
itself of such holdings, until it has applied for interim casino authorization and has executed a trust agreement pursuant to such an application. See Governmental and Gaming Regulations; Interim Casino Authorization.



Ownership and Transfer of Securities. The Casino Control Act imposes
certain restrictions upon the issuance, ownership and transfer of securities of a regulated company and defines the term security to include instruments which evidence a direct or indirect beneficial ownership or creditor interest in a
regulated company including, but not limited to, mortgages, debentures, security agreements, notes and warrants. Each of the Trump AC Licensees, Trump AC, Trump AC Holding, Trump Marina, Inc., THCR Holdings, THCR and TCH is deemed to be a regulated
company, and instruments evidencing a beneficial ownership or creditor interest therein, including a partnership interest, are deemed to be the securities of a regulated company.



If the CCC finds that a holder of such securities is not qualified under the Casino Control Act, it has the right to take
any remedial action it may deem appropriate, including the right to force divestiture by such disqualified holder of such securities. In the event that certain disqualified holders fail to divest themselves of such securities, the CCC has the power
to revoke or suspend the casino license affiliated with the regulated company which issued the securities. If a holder is found unqualified, it is unlawful for the holder (i) to exercise, directly or through any trustee or nominee, any right
conferred by such securities or (ii) to receive any dividends or interest upon such securities or any remuneration, in any form, from its affiliated casino licensee for services rendered or otherwise.



With respect to non-publicly-traded securities, the Casino Control Act and
regulations of the CCC require that the corporate charter or partnership agreement of a regulated company establish a right in the CCC of prior approval with regard to transfers of securities, shares and other interests and an absolute right in the
regulated company to repurchase at the market price or the purchase price, whichever is the lesser, any such security, share or other interest in the event that the CCC disapproves a transfer. With respect to publicly-traded securities, such
corporate charter or partnership agreement is required to establish that any such securities of the entity are held subject to the condition that if a holder thereof is found to be disqualified by the CCC, such holder shall dispose of such
securities.



Under the terms of the indentures governing the
TCH Notes and TAC Notes, if a holder of the TCH Notes or TAC Notes, as the case may be, does not qualify under the Casino Control Act when required to do so, such holder must dispose of its interest in such securities, and the respective Issuer or
Issuers of such securities may redeem the securities at the lesser of the outstanding amount or fair market value.



Interim Casino Authorization. Interim casino authorization is a process which permits a person who enters into a contract to obtain property
relating to a casino operation or who obtains publicly-traded securities relating to a casino licensee to close on the contract or own the securities until plenary licensure or qualification. During the period of interim casino authorization, the
property relating to the casino operation or the securities is held in trust.



Whenever any person enters into a contract to transfer any property, which relates to an ongoing casino operation, including a security of the casino licensee or a holding or intermediary company or entity qualifier,
under circumstances which would require that the transferee obtain licensure or be qualified under the Casino Control Act, and that person is not already licensed or qualified, the transferee is required to apply for interim casino authorization.
Furthermore, except as set forth below with respect to publicly-traded securities, the closing or settlement date in the contract at issue may not be earlier than the 121st day after the submission of a complete



15

##### Table of Contents

application for licensure or qualification together with a fully executed trust agreement in a form approved by the CCC. If, after the report of the DGE and
a hearing by the CCC, the CCC grants interim authorization, the property will be subject to a trust. If the CCC denies interim authorization, the contract may not close or settle until the CCC makes a determination on the qualifications of the
applicant. If the CCC denies qualification, the contract will be terminated for all purposes and there will be no liability on the part of the transferor.



If, as a result of a transfer of publicly-traded securities of a licensee, a holding or intermediary company or entity qualifier of a licensee, or a
financing entity of a licensee, any person is required to qualify under the Casino Control Act, that person is required to file an application for licensure or qualification within 30 days after the CCC determines that qualification is required or
declines to waive qualification. The application must include a fully executed trust agreement in a form approved by the CCC or, in the alternative, within 120 days after the CCC determines that qualification is required, the person whose
qualification is required must divest such securities as the CCC may require in order to remove the need to qualify.



The CCC may grant interim casino authorization where it finds by clear and convincing evidence that: (i) statements of compliance have been issued
pursuant to the Casino Control Act; (ii) the casino hotel is an approved hotel in accordance with the Casino Control Act; (iii) the trustee satisfies qualification criteria applicable to key casino employees, except for residency; and (iv) interim
operation will best serve the interests of the public.



When
the CCC finds the applicant qualified, the trust will terminate. If the CCC denies qualification to a person who has received interim casino authorization, the trustee is required to endeavor, and is authorized, to sell, assign, convey or otherwise
dispose of the property subject to the trust to such persons who are licensed or qualified or shall themselves obtain interim casino authorization.



Where the holder of publicly-traded securities is required, in applying for qualification as a financial source or qualifier, to transfer such securities
to a trust in application for interim casino authorization and the CCC thereafter orders that the trust become operative: (i) during the time the trust is operative, the holder may not participate in the earnings of the casino hotel or receive any
return on its investment or debt security holdings; and (ii) after disposition, if any, of the securities by the trustee, proceeds distributed to the unqualified holder may not exceed the lower of their actual cost to the unqualified holder or their
value calculated as if the investment had been made on the date the trust became operative.



Approved Hotel Facilities. The CCC may permit an existing licensee, such as one of the Trump Atlantic City Properties, to increase its casino space if the licensee agrees to add a prescribed number of
qualifying sleeping units within two years after the commencement of gaming operations in the additional casino space. However, if the casino licensee does not fulfill such agreement due to conditions within its control, the licensee will be
required to close the additional casino space, or any portion thereof that the CCC determines should be closed.



Persons who are parties to the lease for an approved hotel building or who have an agreement to lease a building which may in the judgment of the CCC
become an approved hotel building are required to hold a casino license unless the CCC, with the concurrence of the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey, determines that such persons do not have the ability to exercise significant control
over the building or the operation of the casino therein.



Unless otherwise determined by the CCC, agreements to lease an approved hotel building or the land under the building must be for a term exceeding 30 years, must concern 100.0% of the entire approved hotel building or the land upon which it
is located and must include a buy-out provision conferring upon the lessee the absolute right to purchase the lessors entire interest for a fixed sum in the event that the lessor is found by the CCC to be unsuitable.



Agreement for Management of Casino. Each party to an agreement for the
management of a casino is required to hold a casino license, and the party who is to manage the casino must own at least 10.0% of all the outstanding equity securities of the casino licensee. Such an agreement shall: (i) provide for the complete
management of the casino; (ii) provide for the unrestricted power to direct the casino operations; and (iii) provide for a term long enough to ensure the reasonable continuity, stability and independence and management of the casino.



License Fees. The CCC is authorized to establish annual fees for the
renewal of casino licenses. The renewal fee is based upon the cost of maintaining control and regulatory activities prescribed by the Casino Control Act, and may not be less than $200,000 for a four-year casino license. Additionally, casino
licensees are subject to

potential assessments to fund any annual operating deficits incurred by the CCC or the DGE. There is also an annual license fee of $500 for each slot machine
maintained for use or in use in any casino.



Gross Revenue
Tax. Each casino licensee is currently required to pay an annual tax of 8.0% on its gross casino revenues. The table below sets forth each Trump AC Licensees gross revenue tax and license, investigation and other fees and assessments for
the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001.

On July 3, 2002, the
State of New Jersey passed the New Jersey Business Tax Reform Act which, among other things, requires the suspension of the use of the New Jersey net operating loss carry forwards for two years and the introduction of a new alternative minimum
assessment under the New Jersey corporate business tax based on gross receipts or gross profits.



Investment Alternative Tax Obligations. An investment alternative tax imposed on the gross casino revenues of each licensee in the amount of 2.5%
is due and payable on the last day of April following the end of the calendar year. A licensee is obligated to pay the investment alternative tax for a period of 35 years. Estimated payments of the investment alternative tax obligation must be made
quarterly in an amount equal to 1.25% of estimated gross revenues for the preceding three-month period. Investment tax credits may be obtained by making qualified investments or by the purchase of bonds issued by the CRDA. Such bonds may have terms
as long as 50 years and bear interest at below market rates, resulting in a value lower than the face value of such bonds.



For the first 10 years of its tax obligation, the licensee is entitled to an investment tax credit against the investment alternative tax in an amount
equal to twice the purchase price of such bonds issued to the licensee. Thereafter, the licensee (i) is entitled to an investment tax credit in an amount equal to twice the purchase price of such bonds or twice the amount of its investments
authorized in lieu of such bond investments or made in projects designated as eligible by the CRDA and (ii) has the option of entering into a contract with the CRDA to have its tax credit comprised of direct investments in approved eligible projects
which may not comprise more than 50.0% of its eligible tax credit in any one year.



From the monies made available to the CRDA, it is required to set aside $175.0 million for investment in hotel development projects in Atlantic City undertaken by a licensee which result in the construction or
rehabilitation of at least 200 hotel rooms. These monies will be held to fund up to 27.0% of the cost to casino licensees of expanding their hotel facilities to provide additional hotel rooms, a portion of which has been required to be available
with respect to the new Atlantic City Convention Center.



Minimum Casino Parking Charges. As of July 1, 2003, each casino licensee is required to pay the New Jersey State Treasurer a $3.00 charge for every use of a parking space for the purpose of parking motor vehicles in a parking
facility owned or leased by a casino licensee or by any person on behalf of a casino licensee. This amount is paid into a special fund established and held by the New Jersey State Treasurer for the exclusive use of the CRDA. Taj Associates, Plaza
Associates and Marina Associates normally charge their parking patrons $4.00 in order to make their required payments to the New Jersey State Treasurer and cover related expenses. Amounts in the special fund will be expended by the CRDA for eligible
projects in the corridor region of Atlantic City related to improving

the highways, roads, infrastructure, traffic regulation and public safety of Atlantic City or otherwise necessary or useful to the economic development and
redevelopment of Atlantic City in this regard.



Casino
Complimentary Services Taxes. On July 1, 2003, the New Jersey Legislature passed a law that increases the taxation of New Jersey casinos. The new law imposes, among other taxes, a 4.25% tax on complimentaries (i.e., free rooms, food, beverages
and entertainment given to patrons).



Casino Profits
Tax. On July 1, 2003, the New Jersey Legislature passed a law that increases the taxation on New Jersey Casinos. The new law imposes, among other taxes, a Profits Tax for each of the state fiscal years ended June 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006 based on
7.5% of each casinos 2002 adjusted net income (defined as net income plus management fees) subject to a minimum annual tax of $350,000 for each casino. As the tax law is effective beginning July 1, 2003, the Company began to record the effect
of this tax in its third quarter financial statements. Each of our New Jersey casinos qualifies for the minimum annual tax of $350,000 for each of the three fiscal years.



Atlantic City Fund. On each October 31st during the years 1996 through 2003, each casino licensee shall pay into an
account established in the CRDA and known as the Atlantic City Fund, its proportional share of an amount related to the amount by which annual operating expenses of the CCC and the DGE are less than a certain fixed sum. Additionally, a portion of
the investment alternative tax obligation of each casino licensee for the years 1994 through 1998 allocated for projects in northern New Jersey shall be paid into and credited to the Atlantic City Fund. Amounts in the Atlantic City Fund will be
expended by the CRDA for economic development projects of a revenue-producing nature that foster the redevelopment of Atlantic City other than the construction and renovation of casino hotels.



Conservatorship. If, at any time, it is determined that any licensee
or any other entity qualifier has violated the Casino Control Act or that any of such entities cannot meet the qualification requirements of the Casino Control Act, such entity could be subject to fines or the suspension or revocation of its license
or qualification. If a casino license is suspended for a period in excess of 120 days or is revoked, or if the CCC fails or refuses to renew such casino license, the CCC could appoint a conservator to operate and dispose of such licensees
casino hotel facilities. A conservator would be vested with title to all property of such licensee relating to the casino and the approved hotel subject to valid liens and/or encumbrances. The conservator would be required to act under the direct
supervision of the CCC and would be charged with the duty of conserving, preserving and, if permitted, continuing the operation of the casino hotel. During the period of the conservatorship, a former or suspended casino licensee is entitled to a
fair rate of return out of net earnings, if any, on the property retained by the conservator. The CCC may also discontinue any conservatorship action and direct the conservator to take such steps as are necessary to effect an orderly transfer of the
property of a former or suspended casino licensee. Such events could result in an event of default under the terms of the indentures governing the TAC Notes and the TCH Notes.



Qualification of Employees. Certain of our employees must be licensed by or registered with the CCC, depending on the
nature of the position held. Casino employees are subject to more stringent requirements than non-casino employees and must meet applicable standards pertaining to financial stability, integrity and responsibility, good character, honesty and
integrity, business ability and casino experience and New Jersey residency. These requirements have resulted in significant competition among Atlantic City casino operators for the services of qualified employees.



Gaming Credit. The casino games at the Trump Atlantic City Properties
are conducted on a credit as well as cash basis. Gaming debts arising in Atlantic City in accordance with applicable regulations are enforceable in the courts of the state of New Jersey. The extension of gaming credit is subject to regulations that
detail procedures which casinos must follow when granting gaming credit and recording counter checks which have been exchanged, redeemed or consolidated. Gaming credit may not be collectible in foreign countries.



Control Procedures. Gaming at the Trump Atlantic City Properties is
conducted by trained and supervised personnel. We employ extensive security and internal controls. Security checks are made to determine, among other matters, that job applicants for key positions have had no criminal history or associations.
Security controls utilized by the surveillance department include closed circuit video cameras to monitor the casino floor and money counting areas. The count of moneys from gaming also is observed daily by representatives of the CCC.

Indiana Gaming Regulations



Indiana Gaming Commission. The ownership and operation of riverboat gaming operations in Indiana are subject to
strict state regulation under the Riverboat Gambling Act and the administrative rules promulgated thereunder. Under the Riverboat Gambling Act, all games typically available in Atlantic City casinos are permitted on Trump Indiana. The riverboat
casinos in Indiana are permitted to stay open 24 hours per day, 365 days per year and to extend credit and accept credit cards with no loss or wagering limits. The Indiana Gaming Commission, or the IGC, is empowered to administer, regulate and
enforce the system of riverboat gaming established under the Riverboat Gambling Act and has jurisdiction and supervision over all riverboat gaming operations in Indiana, as well as all persons on riverboats where gaming operations are conducted. The
IGC is empowered to regulate a wide variety of gaming and non-gaming related activities, including the licensing of suppliers to, and employees at, riverboat gaming operations and to approve the form of ownership and financial structure of not only
riverboat owner and supplier licensees, but also their entity qualifiers and intermediary and holding companies. The IGC has adopted certain final rules and has published others in proposed or draft form which have proceeded through the review and
final adoption process. The IGC also has indicated its intent to publish additional proposed rules in the future. The IGC has broad rulemaking power, and it is impossible to predict what effect, if any, the amendment of existing rules or the
finalization of currently proposed rules might have on the operations of Trump Indiana or THCR. The following reflects both adopted and proposed regulations. Further, the Indiana General Assembly has the power to promulgate new laws and implement
amendments to the Riverboat Gambling Act, which could materially affect the operations or economic viability of the gaming industry in Indiana.



Riverboat Owners License. The operation of a gaming riverboat in Indiana is subject to the Riverboat Gambling Act and the administrative
rules promulgated thereunder. In June 1996, the IGC granted Trump Indiana, Inc. a riverboat owners license, which in June 2003 was renewed to June 2004. We have timely filed an application with the IGC to renew our riverboat owners
license. Although we believe the IGC will renew the license, no assurance can be given, as to such renewal or as to what license conditions, if any, may be imposed by the IGC in connection with such renewal.



Transfer of Riverboat Owners License. Pursuant to IGC proposed
rules, an ownership interest in a riverboat owners license shall not be transferred unless the transfer complies with applicable rules, and no riverboat gaming operation may operate unless the appropriate licenses and approvals are obtained
from the IGC. Under current Indiana law, a maximum of 10 riverboat owners licenses may be in effect at any given time. In 2003, the State of Indiana passed legislation that allows a person or entity to own up to 100.0% in no more than two
riverboat licenses. Previously, a person or entity could simultaneously own up to 100.0% in one riverboat owners license and no more than 10.0% in a second riverboat owners license.



A riverboat owners licensee must possess a level of skill, experience,
or knowledge necessary to conduct a riverboat gaming operation that will have a positive economic impact on the host site, as well as the entire state of Indiana. Additional representative, but not exclusive, qualification criteria with respect to
the holder of a riverboat owners license include character, reputation, financial integrity, the facilities or proposed facilities for the conduct of riverboat gaming including related non-gaming projects such as hotel development, and the
good faith affirmative action plan to recruit, train and upgrade minorities and women in all employment classifications. The IGC shall require persons holding riverboat owners licenses to adopt policies concerning the preferential hiring of
residents of the city in which the riverboat docks for riverboat jobs. The IGC has broad discretion in regard to the issuance, renewal, revocation and suspension of licenses and approvals, and the IGC is empowered to regulate a wide variety of
gaming and non-gaming related activities, including the licensing of suppliers to, and employees at, riverboat gaming operations, and to approve the form of ownership and financial structure of not only riverboat owner and supplier licensees, but
also their subsidiaries and affiliates.



A riverboat
owners licensee or any other person may not lease, hypothecate, borrow money against or loan money against a riverboat owners license. An ownership interest in a riverboat owners license may only be transferred in accordance with
the regulations promulgated under the Riverboat Gambling Act. An applicant for the approval of a transfer of a riverboat owners license must comply with application procedures prescribed by the IGC, present evidence that it meets or possesses
the standards, qualifications and other criteria under Indiana gaming laws, that it meets all requirements for a riverboat owners license, and that it pay an investigative fee in the amount of $50,000 with the application. If the IGC denies
the application to transfer an ownership interest, it shall issue notice of denial to the applicant, and, unless specifically stated to the contrary, a notice of denial of an application



19

##### Table of Contents

for transfer shall not constitute a finding that the applicant is not suitable for licensure. A person who is served with notice of denial under this rule
may request an administrative hearing.



Control Persons and
Operational Matters. The IGC has implemented strict regulations with respect to the suitability of the riverboat owners licensee, their key personnel and their employees similar to the regulations and precedent of the CCC. The IGC utilizes
a class-based licensing structure that subjects all individuals associated with Trump Indiana, Inc. to varying degrees of background investigations. Likewise, comprehensive security measures, including video surveillance by both random
and fixed cameras, are required in the casino and money counting areas. Additionally, the IGC has delineated procedures for the reconciliation of the daily revenues and tax remittance to the state as further detailed below.



Tax. Under Indiana gaming law, a tax is imposed on admissions to
gaming excursions. In June 2002, the Indiana legislature enacted legislation which changed the admissions tax rate from $3.00 per person per cruise to $3.00 per person. This admission tax is imposed upon the riverboat owners licensee
conducting the gaming excursion on a per-person basis without regard to the actual fee paid by the person using the ticket, with the exception that no tax shall be paid by admittees who are actual and necessary officials, employees of the licensee
or other persons actually working on the riverboat. The IGC may suspend or revoke the license of a riverboat owners licensee that does not submit the payment or the tax return form regarding admission tax within the required time established
by the IGC. Since Trump Indiana shares its berthing site with Majestic Star, the IGC authorized us to operate a joint turnstile. Trump Indiana and Majestic Star are each responsible to pay one-half of the admissions tax owed for guests using the
joint turnstile.



A tax is imposed on the adjusted gross
receipts received from gaming authorized under the Riverboat Gambling Act. Effective July 1, 2002, legislation increased the tax rate from 20.0% to 22.5%. Adjusted gross receipts is defined as the total of all cash and property (including checks
received by a licensee), whether collected or not, received by a licensee from gaming operations less the total of all cash paid out as winnings to patrons including a provision for uncollectible gaming receivables as is further set forth in the
Riverboat Gambling Act. In July 2003, the State of Indiana assessed a retroactive tax on Indiana riverboat gaming revenues for the period from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003. Trump Indiana recorded $1.9 million in 2003 for this retroactive
adjustment.



Pursuant to the legislation passed in June 2002,
casinos are permitted to convert to dockside operations. If a casino elects to become a dockside operation, the gaming tax structure changes from a flat rate of 22.5% to a graduated scale as follows:



| |  | 15% on gaming revenue from $0 to $25 million based on the states fiscal year (July 1-June 30);
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | 20% on gaming revenue over $25 million but less than $50 million;
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | 25% on gaming revenue over $50 million but less than $75 million;
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | 30% on gaming revenue over $75 million but less than $150 million; and
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | 35% on gaming revenue over $150 million.
| | - | ----------------------------------------



All riverboat casinos in Indiana, including Trump Indiana, converted their operations from cruising to dockside in August 2002.



The impact of the increase in the gaming tax rate in Indiana was partially
mitigated by a change in the methodology for determining the amount of admission tax payable by gaming patrons, which changes from charging the tax per patron per cruise to a single per admission charge per patron.



The legislation passed in June 2002 also created the Indiana Department of
Gaming Research and each riverboat and racetrack is required to pay a $25,000 yearly fee to fund this department.



In addition to the Indiana tax requirements, a similar payment on adjusted gross receipts is payable to the City of Gary at a rate of 4.0% pursuant to the
Development Agreement.



Restricted Transactions. Under
proposed IGC rules, no riverboat owners licensee or riverboat license applicant may enter into or perform any contract or transaction in which it transfers or receives consideration which is not commercially reasonable or which does not
reflect the fair market value of the goods or services rendered or received as determined at the time the contract is executed. Any contract entered into by a riverboat licensee or



20



---

##### Table of Contents

riverboat license applicant that exceeds the total dollar amount of $50,000 shall be a written contract. A riverboat license applicant means an applicant for
a riverboat owners license that has been issued a certificate of suitability.



Pursuant to IGCs proposed rules, riverboat licensees and riverboat license applicants must submit an internal control procedure regarding purchasing transactions which must contain provisions regarding ethical
standards, compliance with state and federal laws, and prohibitions on the acceptance of gifts and gratuities by purchasing and contracting personnel from suppliers of goods or services. The proposed rules also require any riverboat licensee or
applicant to submit any contract, transaction, or series of transactions greater than $500,000 in any twelve-month period to the IGC within 10 days of the execution, and to submit a summary of all contracts or transactions greater than $50,000 in
any 12-month period on a quarterly basis. The proposed rules provide that contracts submitted to the IGC are not submitted for approval by the IGC, but grant the IGC authority to cancel or terminate any contract not in compliance with Indiana law
and the IGC rules.



A riverboat licensee or affiliate may not
enter into a debt transaction in excess of $1 million without the prior approval of the IGC. A debt transaction is any transaction that will result in the encumbrance of assets. Unless waived, approval of debt transactions requires consideration by
the IGC at two business meetings.



Finance. Pursuant to
IGC rules, any person (other than an institutional investor) acquiring 5.0% or more of any class of voting securities of a publicly-traded corporation that owns a riverboat owners license or 5.0% or more of the beneficial interest in a
riverboat licensee, directly or indirectly, through any class of the voting securities of any holding or intermediary company of a riverboat licensee shall apply to the IGC for a finding of suitability within 45 days after acquiring the securities.
Each institutional investor who, individually or in association with others, acquires, directly or indirectly, 5.0% or more of any class of voting securities of a publicly-traded corporation that owns a riverboat owners license or 5.0% or more
of the beneficial interest in a riverboat licensee through any class of the voting securities of any holding or intermediary company of a riverboat licensee shall notify the IGC within 10 days after the institutional investor acquires the securities
and shall provide additional information and may be subject to a finding of suitability as required by the IGC.



Under IGC rules, an institutional investor who would otherwise be subject to a suitability finding shall, within 45 days after acquiring the interests,
submit the following information: (i) a description of the institutional investors business and a statement as to why the institutional investor satisfies the definitional requirements of an institutional investor under Indiana gaming rule
requirements; (ii) a certification made under oath that the voting securities were acquired and are held for investment purposes only and were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business as an institutional investor; (iii) the name,
address, telephone number and the social security number or federal tax identification number of each person who has the power to direct or control the institutional investors exercise of its voting rights as a holder of voting securities of
the riverboat licensee; (iv) the name of each person who beneficially owns 5.0% or more of the institutional investors voting securities or equivalent; (v) a list of the institutional investors affiliates; (vi) a list of all securities
of the riverboat licensee that are or were beneficially owned by the institutional investor or its affiliates within the preceding one year; (vii) a disclosure of all criminal and regulatory sanctions imposed during the preceding 10 years; (viii) a
copy of any filing made under 16 U.S.C. Section 18(a); and (ix) any other additional information the IGC may request to ensure compliance with Indiana gaming laws.



Each institutional investor who, individually or in association with others, acquires, directly or indirectly, the
beneficial ownership of 15.0% or more of any class of voting securities of a publicly-traded corporation that owns a riverboat owners license or 15.0% or more of the beneficial interest in a riverboat licensee through any class of voting
securities of any holding company or intermediary company of a riverboat licensee shall apply to the IGC for a finding of suitability within 45 days after acquiring the securities.



Under IGC rules, an institutional investor means any of the following: (i) a retirement fund administered by a public agency
for the exclusive benefit of federal, state, or local public employees; (ii) an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; (iii) a collective investment trust organized by banks under Part 9 of the Rules of
the Comptroller of the Currency; (iv) a closed end investment trust; (v) a chartered or licensed life insurance company or property and casualty insurance company; (vi) a banking, chartered or licensed lending institution; (vii) an investment
adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and (viii) any other entity the IGC determines constitutes an institutional investor. The IGC may in the future promulgate regulations with respect to the qualification of
other financial backers, mortgagees, bond holders, holders of indentures, or other financial contributors.

##### Table of Contents

Minority and Women Business Participation. The Riverboat Gambling Act places special emphasis on
minority and women business enterprise participation in the riverboat industry. Riverboat licensees must establish goals of expending 10.0% of the total dollars spent on the majority of goods and services with minority business enterprises and 5.0%
with women business enterprises. Riverboat licensees may be subject to a disciplinary action for failure to meet the minority and women business enterprise expenditure goals.



Indiana Gaming Commission Action. All licensees subject to the jurisdiction of the IGC have a continuing duty to
maintain suitability for licensure. The IGC may initiate an investigation or disciplinary action or both against a licensee whom the commission has reason to believe is not maintaining suitability for licensure, is not complying with licensure
conditions, and/or is not complying with Indiana gaming laws or regulations. The IGC may suspend, revoke, restrict, or place conditions on the license of a licensee; require the removal of a licensee or an employee of a licensee; impose a civil
penalty or take any other action deemed necessary by the IGC to insure compliance with Indiana gaming laws.



Indian Gaming Regulations



General. We and the Tribe are subject to federal, tribal and certain state laws applicable to commercial relationships with Indian tribes, Indian
gaming and the management and financing of Indian casinos. In addition, our gaming operations are regulated by federal and certain state laws applicable to the gaming industry and to the distribution of gaming equipment. The following description of
the regulatory environment is only a summary and not a complete recitation of all applicable law. Moreover, since this gaming regulatory environment is particularly susceptible to interpretation and change as the result of public policy
considerations, it is impossible to predict how certain provisions of applicable laws will be interpreted in the future or whether and how they will be modified. Unexpected interpretations of, or changes in, applicable law could have a material
adverse impact on our operations.



Tribal Law and Legal
Systems



Tribal Law; Applicability of State and Federal
Law. Federally recognized Indian tribes are independent governments, subordinate to the United States, with sovereign powers. As sovereign entities, Indian tribes enact their own laws and maintain their own governmental systems, often including
their own judicial systems. Indian tribes have the right to tax persons and enterprises conducting business on Indian lands, and also have the right to require licenses and to impose other forms of regulation and regulatory fees on persons and
businesses operating on their lands.



Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Indian tribes are subject to many federal laws and, under limited circumstances, to certain state laws. The U.S. Constitution entrusts the U.S. Congress with the power to promulgate laws regulating Indian affairs. While principles of
federalism and sovereignty make state laws generally inapplicable to Indian tribes, Congress has the power to subject tribes to state and federal law, and to waive a tribes sovereign immunity as it deems necessary. Trump 29 Services
management agreement with the Tribe includes a limited waiver of sovereign immunity whereby the Tribe consents to Trump 29 Services enforcement of arbitration awards in federal court or, if federal court declines to exercise jurisdiction, in
the California State Courts.



Indian Gaming Regulatory Act
of 1988



Regulatory Authority. The operation of all
casinos and other forms of gaming on Indian lands is subject to IGRA. IGRA is administered by the NIGC, an independent agency within the U.S. Department of Interior, exercising primary federal regulatory responsibility for Indian gaming. The NIGC
has the exclusive federal authority to issue regulations governing tribal gaming activities, approve tribal ordinances regulating class II and class III gaming (as described below), and approve management agreements for gaming facilities. The NIGC
also has authority to conduct investigations and generally monitor tribal gaming. The NIGC is empowered to inspect and audit all Indian gaming facilities, conduct background checks on all persons associated with class II or class III Indian gaming,
hold hearings, issue subpoenas, take depositions, adopt regulations and assess fees and impose civil penalties for IGRA violations. Criminal enforcement of IGRA is the exclusive responsibility of the United States Department of Justice, except to
the extent such enforcement responsibility is shared with the State of California under the compacts and, with respect to crimes committed by tribal members, retained by the Tribe.



Tribal Ordinances. Under IGRA, except to the extent otherwise provided in a tribal-state gaming compact, Indian
tribal governments have primary regulatory authority over class III gaming on land within a tribes jurisdiction. Therefore, gaming operations, and all persons engaged in gaming activities at the gaming facilities, are guided by and subject to
the provisions of the Tribes ordinances and regulations regarding gaming. However, IGRA



22



---

##### Table of Contents

requires that the NIGC review tribal gaming ordinances and authorizes the NIGC to approve such ordinances only if they meet certain requirements relating to:



| |  | the ownership, security, personnel background, record-keeping and auditing of a tribes gaming enterprises;
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the use of the revenues from such gaming operations; and
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the protection of the environment and the public health and safety.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------



The Tribe adopted its tribal gaming ordinance in November 1993 and the NIGC approved the tribal gaming ordinance in April 1994.



Classes of Gaming. IGRA classifies gaming activities that Indians may
conduct on their tribal lands into three categories. Class I gaming includes social games solely for prizes of minimal value or traditional forms of Indian gaming engaged in by individuals as part of, or in connection with, tribal ceremonies or
celebrations. Class II gaming includes bingo, pulltabs, lotto, punch boards, tip jars, certain non-banked card games (if such games are played legally elsewhere in the state), instant bingo and certain other games similar to bingo, if those games
are played at the same location in which bingo is played. Class III gaming includes all other forms of gaming, such as slot machines, video casino games (e.g., video slots, video black jack and video poker), so-called table games (e.g.,
blackjack, craps, roulette) and other commercial gaming (e.g., sports betting and pari-mutual wagering).



Only class II and class III gaming is subject to IGRA. Class I gaming is within the exclusive jurisdiction of Indian tribes. IGRA permits class II gaming
on Indian lands if, among other things:



| |  | such gaming is not otherwise specifically prohibited on Indian lands by federal law;
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | such gaming is conducted in accordance with a tribal ordinance or resolution that has been approved by the NIGC;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | an Indian tribe has sole proprietary interest and responsibility for the conduct of gaming; and
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | the primary management officials and key employees are tribally licensed.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



IGRA permits class III gaming if the conditions applicable to class II gaming are met and such gaming is conducted in conformity with the terms of a
tribal-state gaming compact (a written agreement between the tribal government and the government of the state within whose boundaries the tribes lands lie).



Tribal-State Gaming Compacts. IGRA requires states to negotiate in good faith with Indian tribes that seek to enter
into tribal-state gaming compacts to conduct class III gaming. Such compacts may include provisions for the allocation of criminal and civil jurisdiction between the state and the Indian tribe necessary for the enforcement of applicable laws and
regulations, taxation of the gaming activities by the tribe in amounts comparable to those amounts assessed by the state for comparable activities, remedies for breach of the compact, standards for the operation of gaming and maintenance of the
gaming facility, including licensing, and any other subjects that are directly related to the operation of gaming activities. While the terms of these compacts vary from state-to-state, compacts within one state usually are substantially similar.
Compacts usually specify the types of gaming permitted, establish technical standards for video gaming machines, set maximum and minimum machine payout percentages, entitle the state to inspect casinos, require background investigations and the
licensing of casino employees and may require the tribe to pay a portion of the states expense for establishing and maintaining regulatory agencies. Some compacts are for set terms, while others are for an indefinite duration.



As with the other tribal-state gaming compacts in California, the
Tribes compact with the State requires that the Tribe be subject to Californias workers compensation (unless the Tribe develops its own ordinances regarding workers compensation), labor and unemployment and disability
compensation laws, federal occupational health and safety and discrimination laws, and county building and safety codes and standards. The Tribes compact also requires the Tribe to make reasonable provisions for adequate emergency, fire,
medical and related relief and disaster services for its gaming patrons and employees, and to consider the off-reservation environmental impacts of its casino development.



In addition, under the terms of its compact, the Tribe was required to adopt a labor relations ordinance which provides that
eligible employees, have, among other things, the right to self-organization, to bargain collectively through representatives of their choosing, and the right to refrain from any such activities. The labor



23

##### Table of Contents

relations ordinance also prohibits the Tribe from interfering with these rights and requires, among other things, the Tribe to provide any unions access to
the facility for the purpose of organizing employees as long as that access does not interfere with normal operations.



California Constitution



On March 7, 2000, California voters approved Proposition 1A which amended the California Constitution to exempt Indian gaming in California from the
constitutional provision prohibiting Nevada-style casino gaming in California. The Amendment also authorized the Governor to negotiate and execute tribal-state gaming compacts for the operation of slot machines and for the conduct of lottery games
and banking and percentage card games by federally recognized Indian tribes on Indian land in California. Subsequently, California has entered into compacts with 61 tribes (including the Tribe).



Licensing and Registration Requirements of the Compact and State
Regulation



In California, licensing and registration
requirements for tribal financing sources are governed by the compact and by regulations adopted by the California Gambling Control Commission and the Tribal Gaming Authority.



Compact. The Tribes compact expires on December 31, 2020, but beginning 18 months prior to the expiration date,
the Tribe may request to enter into negotiations to extend its respective compact or enter into a new compact. The Tribes compact will automatically be extended until June 30, 2022 if the Tribe and the State have not agreed to extend the
expiration date or have not entered into a new compact. The Tribes compact requires that any person who directly or indirectly extends financing to the Tribes gaming facility or gaming operation must be licensed as a financial
source by the Tribal Gaming Authority. However, as permitted by the compact, the Tribal Gaming Authority has by ordinance exempted federally and state regulated banks, savings and loan associations and other federally and state regulated
lending institutions, as well as persons who hold less than 10.0% of notes issued by the Tribe or a related entity. For an applicant who is a non-exempted business entity, these licensing provisions also apply to the entitys officers,
directors, principal management employees, owners (if an unincorporated entity), partners and greater than 10.0% shareholders. Under the compact, a permanent license cannot be issued unless the Tribal Gaming Authority has conducted an investigation
as to the suitability of the applicant. Any application for a gaming license may be denied, and any license issued may be revoked, if the Tribal Gaming Authority determines the applicant to be unsuitable or otherwise unqualified for a gaming
license. Each license is subject to review for compliance at least every two years.



Prior to receiving a license, an applicant must apply to the California Gambling Control Commission for a determination of suitability. The California Department of Justice, Division of Gambling Control will then
conduct an investigation of the applicant following the guidelines set forth in the California Gambling Control Act and will provide its suitability recommendation to the California Gambling Control Commission. If the Tribal Gaming Authority
receives notice that the Commission has determined that a person is unsuitable, the compact requires that the Tribal Gaming Authority revoke any license it has issued to such person.



The compact states that any agreement between the Tribe and a financial source terminates upon revocation or non-renewal of
the financial sources license because of a determination of unsuitability by the California Gambling Control Commission. Upon such a termination, the Tribes only liability is for the bona fide repayment of all outstanding sums (exclusive
of interest) owed as of the termination date, exclusive of unpaid accrued interest.



Further, the Tribe is not permitted to enter into, or continue to make payments under, any financing agreement with anyone whose application to the California Gambling Control Commission for a determination of
suitability has been denied or has expired without renewal.



Possible Changes in Federal Law



Several bills
have been introduced in Congress that would amend IGRA. While there have been a number of technical amendments to IGRA, to date there have been no material changes. Any amendment of IGRA could change the governmental structure and requirements
within which the Tribe could conduct gaming.

Other Laws and Regulations



Clean Water Regulations



Operation of Trump Indiana must be in compliance with applicable state and federal environmental requirements, including the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act, the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, the Refuse Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as amended.



The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, the Refuse Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act establish an extensive regulatory and liability regime for the protection and cleanup of the environment from oil spills and releases of hazardous substances and other pollutants, and affect all owners and operators whose vessels
operate in United States waters, which include the Great Lakes. The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires vessel owners and operators to establish and maintain with the U.S. Coast Guard evidence of financial responsibility sufficient to meet their
potential liabilities under the act. U.S. Coast Guard regulations also implement the financial responsibility requirements of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act by requiring evidence of financial responsibility,
in addition to any required under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. THCR and Trump Indiana, Inc. have obtained insurance coverage and a Certificate of Financial Responsibility as required by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 and the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act. However, in the case of a catastrophic spill or a spill in a sensitive environment, there can be no assurance that such occurrence would not result in liability in excess of the insurance
coverage.



Treasury Regulations



The United States Department of the Treasury has adopted regulations
pursuant to which a casino is required to file a report of each deposit, withdrawal, exchange of currency, gambling tokens or chips, or other payments or transfers by, through or to such casino which involves a transaction in currency of more than
$10,000 per patron, per gaming day. Such reports are required to be made on forms prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury and are filed with the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, THCR is required to maintain detailed
records (including the names, addresses, social security numbers and other information with respect to its gaming customers) dealing with, among other items, the deposit and withdrawal of funds and the maintenance of a line of credit.



In the past, the Internal Revenue Service had taken the position that
winnings from table games by nonresident aliens were subject to a 30.0% withholding tax. The Internal Revenue Service, however, subsequently adopted a practice of not collecting such tax. Recently enacted legislation exempts from withholding tax
table game winnings by nonresident aliens, unless the Secretary of the Treasury determines by regulation that such collections have become administratively feasible.



THCR has adopted the following internal control procedures to increase compliance with these Treasury regulations: (i)
computer exception reporting; (ii) establishment of a committee to review currency transaction report transactions and reporting which consists of executives from the Casino Operations, Marketing and Administration Departments; (iii) internal audit
testing of compliance with the Treasury regulations; (iv) training for all new and existing employees in compliance with the Treasury regulations; and (v) a disciplinary program for employee violations of the policy.



Other Regulations



Trump Indiana is located near protected wetlands which subject THCR to
obligations or liabilities in connection with wetlands mitigation or protection.



THCR is subject to other federal, state and local regulations and, on a periodic basis, must obtain various licenses and permits, including those required to sell alcoholic beverages. We believe all required licenses
and permits necessary to conduct the business of THCR have been obtained for operations in the States of New Jersey and Indiana.



THCR expects to be subject to similar rigorous regulatory standards in each other jurisdiction in which it seeks to conduct gaming operations. There can
be no assurance that regulations adopted, permits required or taxes imposed by other jurisdictions will permit profitable operations by THCR in those jurisdictions.



In addition, the Federal Merchant Marine Act of 1936 and the Federal Shipping Act of 1916 and the applicable regulations
thereunder require, among other things, that 75.0% of the outstanding stock and voting power



25

##### Table of Contents

of any entity owning or operating a vessel in the United States coastwise trade, which includes the Great Lakes, must be beneficially owned and controlled by
citizens of the United States, as defined therein. During any period when more than 25.0% of the outstanding capital stock and voting power of THCR is owned and controlled by persons who are not citizens of the United States, the vessel would be
ineligible to operate in the Great Lakes, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.



Employees and Labor Relations



The table below sets forth the approximate number of our full-time equivalent employees working at each of the Trump Casino Properties and Trump 29 as of
December 31, 2003:

Certain of our casino
hotel employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements. Approximately 1,100, 575 and 525 full-time equivalent employees of Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates, respectively, are covered by a collective bargaining
agreement with Local 54, H.E.R.E.I.U., AFL-CIO (Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees International Union) set to expire on September 15, 2004. Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates expect to commence joint negotiations with the
union to renew the agreement in July 2004. We believe that we have a good relationship with our employees. In addition, certain of our executives and employees provide services, from time-to-time and as requested, to one or more of our casino
properties pursuant to the Casino Services Agreement described herein. See Business; Certain Agreements; Casino Services Agreement.



Also, certain of our employees are required to be licensed by, or registered with the CCC and/or the IGC, depending upon the nature of their employment.
Casino employees are subject to more stringent licensing requirements than non-casino employees, and are required to meet applicable standards pertaining to such matters as financial responsibility, good character, ability, casino training,
experience and in-state residency. These regulations have resulted in significant competition for eligible employees.



Seasonality



Our cash flows from operating activities are seasonal in nature. Spring and summer are traditionally the peak seasons for the Trump Atlantic City
Properties, with autumn and winter being non-peak seasons. Trump 29s peak seasons are late winter and spring. Trump Indiana is not seasonal. Since the Trump Atlantic City Properties account for the majority of our business, our operating
results for the two quarters ending in March and December are not historically as profitable as the two quarters ending in June and September. Any excess cash flow achieved from operations during peak seasons is used to subsidize non-peak seasons.
Performance in non-peak seasons is usually dependent on favorable weather and a long-weekend holiday calendar. In the event that we are unable to generate excess cash flows in one or more peak seasons, we may not be able to subsidize non-peak
seasons, if necessary.



Inflation



There was no significant impact on operations as a result of inflation
during 2001, 2002 and 2003.

Also, each of the Trump Atlantic City Properties leases space to various
retailers in their respective facilities.



Trump Taj Mahal



Through our subsidiary, Taj Associates, we currently own the
approximately 30 acres of land which comprise the Trump Taj Mahal site. The Taj Mahal site includes the Steel Pier (approximately 3.6 acres) and related property located on the opposite side of the boardwalk from the Trump Taj Mahal. Taj Associates

Trump Plaza



Through our subsidiary, Plaza Associates, we own and lease several parcels of land in and around Atlantic City, including four parcels of land on which
Trump Plaza is situated. We also lease one of the four parcels of land on which Trump Plaza is situated from Plaza Hotel Management Company, or PHMC, pursuant to a non-renewable ground lease expiring in December 2078, or the PHMC Lease. Plaza
Associates, in addition to the payment of fixed rent, is responsible for all costs and expenses with respect to the use, operation and ownership of the leased tract and the improvements now, or which may in the future be, located thereon, including,
but not limited to, all maintenance and repair costs, insurance premiums, real estate taxes, assessments and utility charges. The improvements located on the leased tract are owned by Plaza Associates during the term of the PHMC Lease, and upon the
expiration of the term of the PHMC Lease (for any reason), ownership of such improvements will then belong to PHMC. Plaza Associates has the option to purchase the leased parcel at certain times during the term of such PHMC Lease under certain
circumstances.



Plaza Associates also leases, pursuant to the
PHMC Lease, a 11,800 square foot parcel of land located near the intersection of Mississippi and Pacific Avenues and owns a 5,750 square foot parcel of land adjacent to it.



Plaza Associates also owns five parcels of land, aggregating approximately 43,300 square feet, and subleases one parcel
consisting of approximately 3,125 square feet. All of such parcels are contiguous and are located along Atlantic Avenue, on the same block as Trump Plazas garage. They are used for signage and surface parking and are encumbered by the TAC
Notes.



Plaza Associates also owns approximately three acres of
land adjacent to the boardwalk and on which the former Trump Worlds Fair, closed in October 1999, was situated.



Trump Marina



Through Marina Associates, we own Trump Marinas hotel and casino facility and the 14.7-acre triangular-shaped parcel of land on which it is
situated. Marina Associates also owns an employee parking lot located on Route 30, approximately two miles from Trump Marina, which can accommodate approximately 1,000 cars.



Trump Indiana



Through Trump Indiana, Inc., we own Trump Indianas 280 foot riverboat vessel. Pursuant to Trump Indiana Inc.s and Majestic Stars joint
venture, Buffington Harbor Riverboats, LLC, or BHR, owns, develops and operates all common land-based and waterside operations in support of Trump Indiana Inc.s and Majestic Stars separate riverboat casinos at Buffington Harbor,
including a 40,000 square foot pavilion. Also, through BHPA, a joint venture between Trump Indiana, Inc. and an affiliate of Majestic Star, Trump Indiana, Inc. and the affiliate of Majestic Star each lease the Indiana Parking Garage, completed in
the second quarter of 2002. See Business; Certain Agreements; Buffington Harbor Joint Venture.



New York City



We lease
office space in Trump Tower located in New York, New York for general, executive and administrative purposes pursuant to a lease, dated November 1, 1996, as amended, with Trump Tower Commercial, LLC (Trump Tower Lease), an entity owned by Donald J.
Trump. The Trump Tower Lease expires on August 31, 2010. The annual rent, payable in equal monthly installments, during the three-year period from September 1, 2003 to August 31, 2006 is $68,459. The annual rent during the last four-year period is
$72,262. According to the Trump Tower Lease, we are also obligated to pay imposed property taxes and porters wage escalation increases. During the

year ended December 31, 2003, we incurred and paid $3,872 in property taxes and wage escalation increases. See Compensation Committee Interlocks and
Insider Participation; Trump Tower Lease and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions; Trump Tower Lease.



|Item 3. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------



Currently and from time to time, THCR and certain of its employees are involved in various legal proceedings incidental to THCRs business. While any
proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, management believes that the final outcomes of these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on THCRs results of operations or financial condition. In general, THCR has
agreed to indemnify such persons, and its directors, against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses (including reasonable costs, disbursements and counsel fees) and liabilities (including amounts paid or incurred in satisfaction of
settlements, judgments, fines and penalties) incurred by them in said legal proceedings absent a showing of such persons gross negligence or malfeasance.

We
have never paid a dividend on our common stock and we do not anticipate paying one in the foreseeable future. The payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our

earnings, if any, for use in our properties operations.



One thousand shares of our class B common stock are also issued and outstanding, all of which are beneficially owned by Mr. Trump. No established trading market exists for our class B common stock; and our class B common stock is not
permitted to receive any dividends or distributions (other than certain distributions upon liquidation) with respect to the equity of THCR. The issued and outstanding 1,000 shares of class B common stock held by Mr. Trump have the voting equivalency
of 13,918,723 shares of THCR common stock and represent the shares of THCR common stock issuable upon the conversion of Mr. Trumps limited partnership interest in THCR Holdings. The shares of class B common stock are redeemable at par to the

|Item 7. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



This section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our ability
to control or predict. Our actual results may differ substantially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the
related notes thereto. Terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them elsewhere in the Form 10-K. The following constitute cautionary statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.



Factors That May Affect Our Future Results



We have substantial indebtedness and interest expense which limit our
capital expenditures.



Our company has substantial
indebtedness and associated interest expense. At December 31, 2003, THCRs consolidated long-term debt was approximately $1.8 billion and its ratio of debt to capital was 331 to 1. Of such indebtedness, $1.3 billion is represented by the TAC
Notes and approximately $494 million is represented by the TCH Notes. The TAC Notes are guaranteed by Trump Taj Mahal Associates and by Trump Plaza Associates, and are secured by substantially all of the fixed and other assets of such entities on a
priority basis. The TCH Notes are guaranteed by Marina Associates, Trump Indiana and Trump 29 Services and are secured by substantially all of the fixed and other assets of such entities on a priority basis. The TAC Notes and the TCH Notes were
issued pursuant to separate indentures, are not cross-collateralized and have separate and distinct Events of Default. Management believes that this indebtedness and associated interest expense hinders the Companys ability to reinvest in the
maintenance of its owned properties at desired levels. See the Report of Independent Auditors.

##### Table of Contents

Trump AC has an interest payment due on May 1, 2004 of approximately $73.1 million and cannot ensure
that it will have sufficient funds on hand to make the interest payment within the 30-day grace period.



Interest on the TAC Notes (approximately $73.1 million, semi-annually) is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year. THCR anticipates, but cannot
ensure, that Trump AC will have sufficient funds on hand from operations to provide for the May 1, 2004 installment of interest then due and payable on the TAC Notes within the 30-day grace period provided for under the indentures governing the TAC
Notes.



It is an Event of Default under the indentures pursuant
to which the TAC Notes were issued if the interest thereon is not paid within 30 days of the due date. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee may, and upon the request of the holders of 25% of the outstanding TAC Notes, is required
to, declare the entire unpaid amount of the TAC Notes to be immediately due and payable. If such an Event of Default were to occur and the TAC Notes were to be accelerated, Trump AC would not be able to pay such indebtedness. In such event, Trump AC
would likely seek to restructure the TAC Notes.



The TAC Notes
are not guaranteed by THCR or by TCH, and the assets of TCH do not secure the TAC Notes. An Event of Default under the TAC Notes is not an event of default under the indentures pursuant to which the TCH Notes were issued. The ability of Trump AC and
its subsidiaries to pay interest on the TAC Notes depends primarily on the ability of its subsidiaries to generate cash flows sufficient for such purposes. The ability of Trump AC to borrow funds for such purpose is also restricted. See the
Report of Independent Auditors.



The rate of
interest payable on the TCH Notes will increase on March 15, 2004, thereby increasing TCHs interest expense.



The interest rate on the TCH Notes will increase by 0.5% per annum if TCHs First Priority Leverage Ratio for any fiscal year, commencing with the
year ended December 31, 2003, exceeds 4.8 to 1.0, and by 1.0% per annum if the First Priority Leverage Ratio exceeds 5.3 to 1.0. The First Priority Leverage Ratio for the year ended December 31, 2003 resulted in an increase in the interest rates on
the TCH Notes of 1.0%. Such increase is effective from and after March 15, 2004 to March 14, 2005, at which point the rates of interest payable on the TCH Notes would be restored to their original levels, unless the First Priority Leverage Ratio
computation for fiscal 2004 results in an increase. The estimated impact on interest expense for such period will be approximately $4,900,000. This will further constrain the ability of TCH to improve its properties, particularly Trump Marina in the
intensely competitive marina district of Atlantic City. See Financial Condition; Liquidity and Capital Resources; TCH Notes.



We are pursuing the Potential Recapitalization which is intended to reduce debt and provide capital, the completion of which cannot be assured.



Recently, we announced the Potential Recapitalization to
attempt to reduce our high levels of indebtedness and interest expense and infuse equity capital into the Company. See Business; Recent Events.



The Potential Recapitalization depends upon the occurrence of several events, including:



| |  | a restructuring of the TAC Notes and TCH Notes that would reduce their face value, either through in or out of court proceedings;
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | reaching definitive agreement with the Company and Mr. Trump concerning the specific terms of DLJMBs investment, including: (i) whether its investment is made directly in THCR
or in a subsidiary of THCR; (ii) the price (which may be, or be the equivalent of, or more or less than, the market prices for THCR common stock now or at the date of the definitive agreement); (iii) the amount and percentage ownership to be
acquired by DLJMB (although its investment would represent more than a majority in all scenarios discussed to date); (iv) the terms of corporate governance post-investment; (v) the potential resale of its investment; and (vi) the terms of the
Companys continued use of the Trump name and marks, and of Mr. Trumps continued service as Chairman (in exchange for which Mr. Trump is expected to receive additional equity and/or other consideration); and
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | receiving appropriate gaming regulatory approvals.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------



Whether or not the Potential Recapitalization will progress will depend on whether the Special Committee, DLJMB, key holders of the Notes and Mr. Trump
are able to agree on the definitive terms of the recapitalization that, once agreed to, would then be proposed for regulatory and other required consents and approvals. There is no assurance any such agreement will be reached, or that if it is
reached, that all necessary consents and approvals will be obtained.

##### Table of Contents

The Company and DLJMB have proposed certain key terms of the Potential Recapitalization to the Noteholder
Committee which may be different than the terms of a consummated recapitalization plan, if any.



Certain Possible Consequences of the Potential Recapitalization



If the parties can agree on the terms of a Potential Recapitalization, they will likely seek to implement it through a
series of steps, any one of which may not be successful, including the restructuring of the TAC Notes and TCH Notes which may, given the number of holders of the Notes, be effected through a court approved plan of reorganization. In any such
proceeding, the Company would propose, and now anticipates that trade creditors would be paid in full. There is no assurance that any such plan would be approved by the requisite vote of stakeholders. It is also possible that, if a Company sponsored
plan is not agreed upon, bondholders may propose any number of alternative plans, some of which may involve Noteholders seeking to foreclose on their collateral. Pursuant to any plan, Noteholders may receive new notes, cash, other property, equity
securities, or a combination of any of these. Any such new notes may be secured or unsecured, senior or subordinated, and have payment and other terms substantially different from the TAC Notes or TCH Notes.



If the Potential Recapitalization is approved and implemented, it should
result in a substantial deleveraging of the Company and reduction in its debt service. If the plan is approved and implemented, the holders of Common Stock of THCR prior to the transaction, including Mr. Trump (on account of his existing shares),
are likely to have their existing interests substantially diluted and the value of that interest may be less than now. Further, DLJMB will own a majority equity interest in the Company (likely at the THCR or THCR Holdings level), and will be in a
position to control the Company, subject to agreed upon contractual limitations, if any.



Even if the plan is approved and implemented, and facilitates the desired expansion and development of the Companys properties, the change may not lead to the hoped for increase in the volume and profitability
of the Companys business.



Alternatives to the
Potential Recapitalization



If the Potential
Recapitalization or other recapitalization plan is not consummated, the Company will continue to consider alternatives to optimize stakeholder return, reduce its consolidated indebtedness and improve its capital structure, including the alternatives
described above and others. There is no assurance that any such alternatives will be achieved.



Our ability to raise capital through refinancing is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties.



If the Potential Recapitalization is not consummated, the ability of Trump AC and TCH to pay the principal amount of their public debt at maturity
(whether scheduled or by acceleration thereof) is primarily dependent upon their ability to obtain refinancing. There is no assurance that the general state of the economy, the status of the capital markets generally, or the receptiveness of the
capital markets to the gaming industry or to THCR and its subsidiaries will be conducive to refinancing debt at any given time or on more favorable terms. On February 12, 2004, the date of announcement of the Potential Recapitalization, Moodys
downgraded the debt ratings of the TAC Notes and TCH Notes and Standard & Poors downgraded the debt rating of the TCH Notes and placed the TAC Notes on credit watch. These rating downgrades and any future rating downgrades could impair the
Companys ability to raise debt financing for any purpose if it determined to do so.

##### Table of Contents

Restrictions contained in the indentures governing our public indebtedness impose limits on our
ability to pursue certain business strategies.



The
respective indentures governing the TAC Notes and the TCH Notes contain operating and financial restrictions that limit our discretion on various business matters. These restrictions include covenants limiting Trump ACs and TCHs ability
to:



| |  | incur additional debt (with certain limited exceptions) without satisfying certain financial ratios that neither Trump AC nor TCH can currently meet;
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | grant liens;
| | - | ------------



| |  | make capital expenditures;
| | - | --------------------------



| |  | make investments without satisfying certain financial ratios that neither Trump AC nor TCH can currently meet;
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | sell assets without making an offer to purchase TCH Notes, in the case of an asset sale by TCH, or TAC Notes, in the case of an asset sale by Trump AC;
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | merge or consolidate with another company;
| | - | ------------------------------------------



| |  | pay dividends and other distributions;
| | - | --------------------------------------



| |  | issue stock of subsidiaries; and
| | - | --------------------------------



| |  | enter into transactions with affiliates.
| | - | ----------------------------------------



These restrictions severely restrict flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the gaming industry. This reduced
flexibility could hurt our results of operations and our ability to meet our debt service obligations with respect to our indebtedness.



The Borgata has adversely affected us and may continue to do so in the long term.



In July 2003, the Borgata Casino Hotel and Spa, or the Borgata, opened in Atlantic Citys marina district. The Borgata
has approximately 2,000 rooms and suites, an approximate 135,000 square-foot casino, restaurants, retail shops, a spa and pool and entertainment venues. Since its opening, the Borgata has not grown the Atlantic City market to the extent as had been
originally anticipated and, along with a sluggish economy and adverse weather conditions, has adversely affected the results of the Trump Atlantic City Properties, especially the nearby Trump Marina, compared to the same period in the prior year.
Borgatas effect may be temporary and attributable to the desire of gaming patrons to visit a new casino. It is possible, however, that its adverse effect, coupled with increased competition in the region generally, will be long term. While we
believe that the opening of the Borgata will attract additional visitors to Atlantic City in the long term, especially to the marina district where Trump Marina is situated, it is possible that the Borgata could have an adverse effect on the
long-term business and operations of the Trump Atlantic City Properties and impair Trump ACs and TCHs ability to service the TAC Notes and TCH Notes, respectively. Also, the Borgata has recently announced its intention to expand its
casino gaming square footage. To the extent that the Trump Atlantic City Properties, especially Trump Marina, do not have the financial resources to make capital expenditures to improve their properties, this adverse affect may be more acute. See
Financial Condition; Liquidity and Capital Resources.



New York has enacted gaming legislation which may harm us, and other states may do so in the future. We do not know how these initiatives will affect us.



In October 2001, the New York State legislature passed extensive legislation that could adversely affect us. The legislation
permits three new casinos in western New York, one in Niagara Falls, one in Buffalo and one on land owned by the Seneca Indian Nation, all of which would be owned by the Seneca Indian Nation. The legislation also permits up to three casinos in the
Catskills in Ulster and Sullivan counties, also to be owned by Native American tribes. In addition, the legislation allows slot machines to be placed in Indian-owned casinos. Video lottery terminals, or VLTs, could be installed at five horse racing
tracks across the State of New York and, if local governments approve, at certain other tracks. On January 28, 2004, Saratoga Gaming and Raceway in upstate New York opened a gaming facility featuring approximately 1,300 VLTs, and on February 18,
2004, Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack in upstate New York also opened a gaming facility featuring approximately 1,000 VLTs. In

March 2004, New York States third racino at Buffalo Raceway in Hamburg opened with 990 VLTs. MGM Mirage, a major casino gaming company, has announced
that it has an understanding with the NYRA to manage VLTs at the Aqueduct horseracing track in metropolitan New York, subject to certain conditions. Finally, the law provides for New York joining the Powerball lottery that operates in 26 states with
large jackpots. The net effect of these facilities and other items, when operational, on Atlantic City, including the Trump Atlantic City Properties, cannot be predicted. We believe, however, that a substantial amount of existing and potential new
gaming customers could patronize such facilities instead of Atlantic City, at least occasionally.



Pennsylvania and Maryland are among the other states currently contemplating some form of gaming legislation. Legislative proposals introduced in
Pennsylvania would potentially allow for a wide range of gaming activities, including riverboat gaming, slot machines at racetracks, VLTs at liquor stores and the formation of a gaming commission. Marylands proposed legislation would authorize
VLTs at some of Marylands racing facilities. The results of the recent gubernatorial elections in Pennsylvania and Maryland have increased the likelihood of gaming legislation in such states. Since our market is primarily a drive-to market,
legalized gaming in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland or one or more states neighboring or within close proximity to New Jersey could have a material adverse effect on the Atlantic City gaming market overall, including the Trump Atlantic City
Properties.



A downturn in the regional economy and high
energy and gasoline prices and adverse winter weather conditions could negatively impact our financial performance.



A majority of our net revenues and operating income are generated by the Trump Atlantic City Properties. Moderate or severe economic downturns or adverse
conditions in the Atlantic City and regional markets and surrounding areas may negatively affect our operations. During periods of economic contraction, our revenues may decrease while some of our costs remain fixed, resulting in decreased earnings.
This is because gaming and other leisure activities we offer are discretionary expenditures and participation in such activities may decline during economic downturns because consumers have less disposable income. Even an uncertain economic outlook
may adversely affect consumer spending in our gaming operations and related facilities, as consumers spend less in anticipation of a potential economic downturn. Furthermore, other uncertainties, including national and global economic conditions,
terrorist attacks or other global events, could adversely affect consumer spending, increase gasoline prices and, perhaps, adversely affect our operations.



We use significant amounts of electricity, natural gas and other forms of energy. While no shortages of energy have been experienced, any substantial
increases in the cost of electricity and natural gas in the United States, and specifically the North East, could negatively impact our operating results. The extent of any impact is subject to the magnitude and duration of the energy price
increases and could be material.



Also, a majority of our
patrons drive to our property. Rising gasoline prices could reduce automobile travel and decrease the number of patrons at our properties. In addition, adverse winter weather conditions reduce automobile travel. As a result, our business, assets,
financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by a weakening of regional economic conditions, high gasoline prices and/or adverse winter weather conditions.



We may incur losses that would not be covered by insurance and the cost of insurance has increased.



Although we maintain insurance which is customary and, we believe,
appropriate for our business, we cannot assure you that insurance will be available or adequate to cover all losses and damage to which our business or our assets might be subjected. In connection with insurance renewals subsequent to September 11,
2001, the availability of insurance coverage for certain types of damages or occurrences has been diminished substantially. Consequently, we are self-insured for certain risks and levels of risk. The lack of insurance for certain types or levels of
risk could expose us to significant losses in the event that an uninsured catastrophe occurred. Any uninsured losses may decrease our future operating income, require us to find replacements or repairs and reduce funds otherwise available to upgrade
our property or pay expenses.



Taxation of the gaming
industry, already significant, may increase in the future which would reduce our profitability.



The casino industry represents a significant source of tax revenues to the various jurisdictions in which casinos operate. We, as well as other gaming
companies, are currently subject to significant state and local taxes and fees in addition to normal federal and state corporate income taxes. New Jersey taxes annual gaming revenues at the rate of 8.0% and levies an annual investment alternative
tax of 2.5% on annual gaming revenue. This 2.5%

##### Table of Contents

obligation, however, can be satisfied by purchasing certain bonds or making certain investments in the amount of 1.25% of annual gaming revenues. In July
2002, New Jersey passed the New Jersey Business Tax Reform Act, which, among other things, suspended the use of the net operating loss carryforwards for two years and introduced a new alternative minimum assessment under the New Jersey corporate
business tax based on gross receipts or gross profits. Future changes in New Jerseys taxation of gaming companies cannot be predicted and any such changes could adversely affect our profitability.



From time to time, and as was the case in the second quarter of 2002 in
Indiana, various state and federal legislators have proposed changes in tax laws that affect the gaming industry. In connection with permitting dockside gaming which we believe is advantageous, the Indiana state legislature passed legislation
effective July 1, 2002 that increased the gaming tax rates in Indiana. If a casino elects to become a dockside operations, the gaming tax rate structure changes from a flat tax rate of 22.5% to a graduated scale with a maximum tax rate of 35.0%,
depending on gaming revenues levels. Trump Indiana became a dockside operation in August 2002.



On July 1, 2003, the New Jersey legislature passed a law that increases the taxation of New Jersey casinos. The new law imposes a 4.25% tax on complimentaries (i.e., free rooms, food, beverages and entertainment given
to patrons), an increase in the hotel tax of $3.00 per day on each occupied room, and increases the parking fee tax from $1.50 to $3.00 per car per day. In addition, each casino is charged a profits tax based on 7.5% of each casinos 2002
adjusted net income, defined as net income plus management fees) subject to a minimum tax of at least $350,000. The tax is assessed during the period from July 1 to June 30 consistent with the fiscal year of the State of New Jersey. For the year
ended December 31, 2003, THCR has recorded a charge to income tax expense on the statement of operations for $525,000 related to the profits tax.



Future changes in state taxation of casino gaming companies in jurisdictions in which we operate cannot be predicted, and any such changes could adversely
affect our profitability.



Our success depends, in part, on
the availability of qualified management and personnel and on our ability to retain such employees.



Certain of our employees are required to be licensed by, or registered with, the New Jersey Casino Control Commission, or the CCC, the Indiana Gaming
Commission, or the IGC, and/or the National Indian Gaming Commission, or the NIGC, depending upon the nature of their employment. Casino employees are subject to more stringent licensing requirements than non-casino employees, and are required to
meet applicable standards pertaining to such matters as financial responsibility, good character, ability, casino training, experience and in-state residency. These regulations have resulted in significant competition for eligible employees. As a
result, it may be difficult to attract, retain and train qualified employees due to the competition for employees with other gaming companies in our jurisdiction and nationwide. A failure to attract or retain qualified management and personnel at
all levels or the loss of our key executives could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.



Our right to use the Trump name is subject to certain limitations.



Subject to certain limitations, THCR has the exclusive right to use the Trump name and Mr. Trumps likeness
in connection with gaming and related activities pursuant to the Trademark License Agreement. THCRs rights under the Trademark License Agreement are secured by a security interest in the names Trump, Donald Trump and
Donald J. Trump and variations thereof (collectively, the Trump Names) and related intellectual property rights (collectively, the Marks) for use in connection with casino services, pursuant to a security agreement. THCR, in turn, allows
its subsidiaries to use the Trump Names under various parol licenses which do not create an enforceable license in favor of these subsidiaries. If there were a default under the Trademark License Agreement or the security agreement, THCR would have
rights, subject to applicable state law, to enforce the rights and remedies contained in the security agreement. THCRs subsidiaries would not have any such rights. In the event of a foreclosure sale of the Marks, the net amount realized in
such sale by THCR might not yield the full amount of damages that THCR could sustain as a result of the default. In addition, the existence of rights of others to use the Trump Names, including pursuant to any security interests in trademarks for
non-gaming hotels, could adversely affect the ability of THCR to realize the benefits of the security agreement. See Business; Certain Agreements; Trademark License Agreement.

Gaming is a regulated industry and changes in the law could have a material adverse effect on our
positions.



Gaming in New Jersey and Indiana and at Trump
29 is regulated extensively by federal and state regulatory bodies, including the CCC, the IGC, the NIGC and state and federal taxing, law enforcement and liquor control agencies. See Business; Governmental and Gaming Regulation. Our
company and its various officers and other qualifiers have received the licenses, permits and authorizations required to operate our properties. Failure to maintain or obtain the requisite casino licenses would have a material adverse effect on us.



Our licenses to operate Trump Marina, Trump Plaza and Trump
Taj Majal were consolidated and renewed by the CCC until June 2007. See Business; Governmental and Gaming Regulations; Operating Licenses.



In June 1996, the IGC granted Trump Indiana, Inc. a riverboat owners license for the ownership and operation of a gaming vessel at Buffington
Harbor, which was renewed in June 2003 and expires in June 2004. Although we believe the IGC will renew the license, no assurance can be given as to such renewal or as to what license conditions, if any, may be imposed by the IGC in connection with
such renewal.



Gaming at Trump 29 is regulated
extensively by federal, state and tribal regulatory bodies, including the NIGC, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Tribal Gaming Authority and, to a lesser extent, by the California Gambling Control Commission.



If new gaming regulations are adopted by the jurisdictions in which we
operate, such regulations could impose restriction or costs that could have a significant adverse effect on us. From time to time, various proposals have been introduced by the legislatures of New Jersey and Indiana that, if enacted, could adversely
affect the tax, regulatory, operations or other aspects of the gaming industry and us. We cannot make assurances that legislation of this type will not be enacted in the future.



Critical Accounting Policies



The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
periods. Management periodically evaluates the Companys policies and the estimates and assumptions related to such policies. The Trump Casino Properties operate in a highly regulated industry and are subject to regulations that describe and
regulate operating and internal control procedures. The Company believes its most critical accounting policies and significant estimates are described below.



Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts



The majority of the Companys revenue is from gaming activities, and the majority of such revenue is derived from cash, which by nature does not
require complex estimations. The Company does extend credit to customers on a discretionary basis to certain qualified patrons. Credit play as a percentage of total dollars wagered has been approximately 20% for the past three years. The Trump
Casino Properties establish credit limits based upon the particular patrons creditworthiness, as determined by an examination of various factors including a credit check of the patron, checking the patrons personal checking account
balance, and checking the patrons credit limits and indebtedness at other casinos. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for those customers whose checks have been unable to be deposited due to non-sufficient funds. This
allowance is based on a specific review of customer accounts as well as a review of the history of write-offs of returned markers. Management believes that the reserve recorded is reasonable; however, these estimates could change in the near term
based on actual collection experience with each returned marker.



Long-lived Assets



Management has determined
that the Companys policy associated with its long-lived assets and the related estimates is critical to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company has a significant investment in long-lived property and equipment.
Management estimates that the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of these assets exceed the current carrying value of these assets. Any adverse change to the estimate of these undiscounted cash flows could necessitate an
impairment charge that would adversely affect operating results. Management estimates the useful lives for the Companys assets based on historical experience and the estimates of assets commercial lives. Should the actual useful life of
a class of assets differ from the



37

##### Table of Contents

estimated useful life, an impairment charge would be recorded. Management reviews useful lives and obsolescence and assesses commercial viability of the
Companys assets periodically.



Self-Insurance Reserves



Self-insurance reserves represent the estimated amounts
of uninsured claims related to employee health medical costs, workers compensation, and personal injury claims that have occurred in the normal course of business. These reserves are established by management based upon specific review of open
claims, with consideration of incurred but not reported claims as of the balance sheet date. The costs of the ultimate disposition of these claims may differ from these reserve numbers.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. This standard addresses
the financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The effect of
adoption had no impact on our financial results.



Effective
January 1, 2003, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Interpretation No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of
Others, an Interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34 (FIN 45). The interpretation requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the entity must recognize a liability for the
fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including roll-forward of the entitys product warranty liabilities. This interpretation is
intended to improve the comparability of financial reporting by requiring identical accounting for guarantees issued with separately identified consideration and guarantees issued without separately identified consideration. Adoption of this
Interpretation has no material impact on our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or liquidity.



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB
51. The primary objectives of this interpretation are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (variable interest entities) and how to
determine when and which business enterprise (the primary beneficiary) should consolidate the variable interest entity. This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (i) the equity investors (if any) do not have a
controlling financial interest; or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entitys activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that the
primary beneficiary, as well as all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, make additional disclosures. Certain disclosure requirements of FIN 46 were effective for financial statements issued after
January 31, 2003. In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46-R) to address certain FIN 46 implementation issues. The effective dates and impact of FIN
46 and FIN 46-R are as follows: (i) Special-purpose entities (SPEs) created prior to February 1, 2003-the company must apply either the provisions of FIN 46 or early adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R at the end of the first interim or
annual reporting period ending after December 15, 2003; (ii) Non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003-the company is required to adopt FIN 46-R at the end if the first interim or annual reporting period ending after March 15, 2004; (iii) All
entities, regardless of whether an SPE, that were created subsequent to January 31, 2003-the provisions of FIN 46 were applicable for variable interests in entities obtained after January 1, 2003. The adoption of the provisions applicable to SPEs
and all other variable interests obtained after January 1, 2003 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 46-R
applicable to Non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003 but does not expect a material impact.



Financial Condition



Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Company
has incurred recurring operating losses, which totaled $25.3 million, $12.0 million, and $87.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002, and 2003, respectively, and has a working capital deficit of $46.9 million at December 31, 2003.
The recurring operating losses are primarily the result of substantial debt service obligations on outstanding indebtedness. In 2004, the Companys debt service obligation is approximately $225 million. Additionally, the Company has experienced
increased competition and other challenges in its markets. Due to these factors, the Company has not been able to reinvest in the maintenance of its owned properties at desired levels or expand its operations. Furthermore, the Company does not
currently have any short-term borrowing capacity available. Although the Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds on hand to provide for the scheduled debt service obligations on its outstanding indebtedness during 2004, there can be
no assurances such funds will be available.



As a result of these factors, management has reviewed various financing alternatives. On February 12, 2004, the Company announced that it has entered into an exclusivity agreement with DLJMB
in connection with a proposed $400 million equity investment by DLJMB to sponsor a comprehensive recapitalization of the Company. On the same date as the announcement of the Potential Recapitalization, certain credit agencies downgraded certain of
the Companys indebtedness. The Potential Recapitalization is contingent upon a variety of factors. No assurances can be made that the Potential Recapitalization will occur, or if it does occur, that it will occur on terms acceptable to the
Company to allow the Company to meet its obligations as they become due. Additionally, management has implemented programs to obtain cash flow savings and will continue to attempt to implement such programs in the upcoming year if the Potential
Recapitalization does not occur. These programs include labor savings through increased automation of the Companys slot machine product on the gaming floor and the further reduction of planned capital expenditures and maintenance programs.
However, there can be no assurances that these programs would be successful for any protracted period of time. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and
classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty or the Potential Recapitalization. See Business; Recent Events.



Cash flows from operating activities of the Trump Casino Properties are our
primary source of liquidity. To a lesser extent, we rely on capital lease financing for our capital resource needs. Our ability to borrow funds for our liquidity needs is severely restricted by covenants in the various indentures governing the
public debt issues of our subsidiaries and by already high levels of indebtedness and related interest expense. Sources of our short-term and long-term liquidity include primarily: (i) table win, (ii) slot win, (iii) room occupancy, (iv) food and
beverage sales



38

##### Table of Contents

and (v) miscellaneous items, less promotional expenses. Although we expect to have sufficient liquidity from the operating activities of the Trump Casino
Properties and other sources of liquidity to meet our short-term obligations, there can be no assurances in this regard. Our cash flows from operating activities declined from $73.2 million in 2002 to $45.2 million in 2003. A variety of factors,
including a decrease or change in the demand for our services, could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and our ability to service our debt obligations. See Factors That May Affect Our Future Results.



The Trump Atlantic City Properties also compete with other Atlantic City
casino/hotels based on the quality of customer service, the array of games offered, the attractiveness of a casino/hotel and the extent and quality of the facilities and amenities. In July 2003, the Borgata opened in Atlantic Citys marina
district. The Borgata has adversely affected the revenues of the Trump Atlantic City Properties, especially Trump Marina. In addition, some of our Atlantic City competitors have recently completed substantial renovations designed to improve their
competitive position. Furthermore, alternatives to casino style gambling, such as VLTs, are increasing in the northeast region of the country from which we attract most of our customers. See Factors That May Affect Our Future Results.



Because we have substantial indebtedness and related interest
expense, we have not been able to refurbish our properties to desired levels or to pursue various capital expansion plans, such as the addition of more hotel rooms. In the recent past, we have experienced increased competition and other challenges
in our markets, including increased capital spending by our competitors and increased taxes, which have contributed to our reduced operating results. For these reasons, we have explored various strategies to favorably resolve this situation for all
of the Companys constituencies, including the possible sale of certain assets of the Companys subsidiaries, a restructuring of our indebtedness through out-of-court or in-court proceedings, refinancing of indebtedness, attracting
substantial new equity investment and analyzing various other restructuring and reinvestment scenarios. Recently, we announced our plans to pursue a comprehensive recapitalization plan that, if consummated, is intended to decrease our interest
expense and improve our liquidity and capital resources. See Business; Recent Events, Business; The Atlantic City Marketplace and Business; Competition.

Summary of the Companys Public Indebtedness



TAC Notes. Trump ACs debt consists primarily of the TAC Notes. The TAC Notes bear interest at the rate of 11.25% per annum, payable on May 1st and November 1st of each year, and mature on May 1, 2006. The
TAC Notes are redeemable in whole or in part, at any time upon not less than 30 but not more than 60 days notice. If redeemed at any time during the twelve-month period prior to May 1, 2004, the redemption price of the TAC Notes

is 101.875% of the outstanding principal amount, plus accrued interest. If any of the TAC Notes are redeemed on or after May 1, 2004, the redemption
price is 100.0% of the outstanding principal amount of the TAC Notes redeemed, plus accrued interest.



As of December 31, 2003, $1.3 billion principal amount of TAC Notes were outstanding.



THCR anticipates, but cannot ensure, that Trump AC will have sufficient funds from operations on hand to provide for the
May 1, 2004 installment of interest then due and payable on the TAC Notes within the 30-day grace period provided under the indentures governing the TAC Notes. See the Report of Independent Auditors.



The TAC Notes are secured on a senior basis by substantially all of the real
and personal property owned or leased by Plaza Associates and Taj Associates. The obligations evidenced by the TAC Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Trump AC and all future subsidiaries of Trump AC
(other than Trump AC Funding, Inc.).



The TAC Notes are not
guaranteed by THCR or TCH or any of TCHs subsidiaries, and none of such entities are obligated to, or are in a position to, provide funds to Trump AC or its subsidiaries for any purpose, other than certain amounts payable under the Casino
Services Agreement.



TCH Notes. On March 25, 2003, TCH
and Trump Casino Funding, Inc., or TCF, consummated an offering of $475.0 million aggregate principal amount of two new mortgage notes, consisting of $425.0 million principal amount of first priority mortgage notes due March 15, 2010, bearing
interest at a rate of 11.625% per year payable in cash, sold at a price of 94.832% of their face amount for an effective yield of 12.75% (or the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes), and $50.0 million principal amount of second priority mortgage notes
due September 15, 2010, bearing interest at a rate of 11.625% per year payable in cash, plus 6.0% through the issuance of payable-in-kind notes (or the TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes, and together with the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes, the
TCH Notes). In connection with this offering, Donald J. Trump purchased in a concurrent private offering, $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of additional TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes at the same purchase price at which the initial
purchasers purchased the TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes. Except in connection with a public or private equity offering, the TCH Notes are not redeemable until March 15, 2007. In addition, until March 15, 2006, TCH and TCF may redeem up to 35.0%
of the aggregate principal amount of the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes and the TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes with the net proceeds of one or more public of private offerings. The TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes are not redeemable while
the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes are outstanding. For the twelve-month period commencing March 15, 2007, the TCH Notes are redeemable at 108.719% of their outstanding principal amount. For the twelve-month period commencing March 15, 2008, the
redemption price decreases to 104.359% of the outstanding principal amount. For the twelve-month period commencing March 15, 2009, the redemption price is 100.0% of the outstanding principal amount.



If there is a Change of Control (as defined in the indentures) of
TCH, the holders of the TCH Notes will have the right to sell the TCH Notes to TCH and TCF at 101.0% of their face amount, plus accrued interest.



The interest rate on the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes will increase by 0.5% per annum if TCHs First Priority Leverage Ratio for any fiscal
year, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2003, exceeds 4.8 to 1.0, and by 1.0% per annum if the First Priority Leverage Ratio exceeds 5.3 to 1.0. Similarly, the rate of interest payable in cash on the TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes will
increase by 0.5% per annum or 1.0% per annum if the First Priority Leverage Ratio for any fiscal year, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2003, exceeds 4.8 to 1.0 or 5.3 to 1.0, respectively. For these purposes, the term First
Priority Leverage Ratio for any year is defined generally as the ratio of (a) the total outstanding principal amount of the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes (plus other indebtedness, if any, ranking pari passu with the TCH First Priority
Mortgage Notes) as of December 31, of such year to (b) the Consolidated EBITDA of TCH without duplication, the sum of consolidated net income, plus consolidated income tax expense, plus consolidated depreciation and amortization expense, plus
consolidated fixed charges and non-cash charges related to regulatory write downs for the year.



The First Priority Leverage Ratio for the year ended December 31, 2003 resulted in an increase in the interest rates on the TCH Notes of 1.0%. Such
increase is effective from and after March 15, 2004 to March 14, 2005, at which point the rates of interest payable on the TCH Notes would be restored to their original levels, unless the First Priority Leverage Ratio computation for fiscal 2004
results in an increase. The estimated impact on interest expense for the next year, and perhaps thereafter, will be approximately $4,900,000.

TCHs obligation to pay additional cash interest will constrain its liquidity.



The TCH Notes are not guaranteed by THCR or by Trump AC or by any
subsidiaries of Trump AC, and none of such entities is obligated to, or is in a position to, provide funds to TCH for any purpose.



Miscellaneous. In addition, the ability of (i) Plaza Associates and Taj Associates (through Trump AC) and (ii) Marina Associates (through TCH) to
make payments, dividends or distributions to THCR Holdings may be restricted by the CCC and/or the IGC. Similarly, the ability of Trump Indiana, Inc. (through TCH) to make payments of dividends or distributions to THCR Holdings may be restricted by
the IGC.

Effects of Transactions with Related and Certain Other Parties.



Affiliate party transactions are governed by the terms of our public debt indentures and by a stockholder settlement
agreement entered into in January 2002, which generally require that such transactions be on terms as favorable as would be obtainable from an unaffiliated party, and require the approval of a majority of the independent directors of THCR for
certain affiliated transactions.



Trump and certain affiliates
have engaged in certain related party transactions with respect to THCR and its subsidiaries. See Executive Compensation; Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation and Certain Related Party Transactions.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2003 and 2002



Gaming revenues are the primary source of THCRs revenues. The
year-over-year decrease in gaming revenues was due to decreased table game and slot revenues, which was caused by severe winter weather conditions in the Atlantic City market, adverse economic conditions and the war in Iraq. In addition, during the
third and fourth quarters of 2003, the lack of overall market growth in Atlantic City to accommodate the Borgata opening as well as a sluggish economy and poor weather conditions, including Hurricane Isabel in September, also contributed to this
year-over-year decrease.



Table games revenues decreased $16.0
million, or 4.7%, to $321.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $337.1 million in the comparable period in 2002. Decreased table drop at all four properties primarily contributed to the decrease in revenues. Overall, THCRs table
win percentage increased to 16.5% from 16.4% in the comparable period in 2002. Atlantic City industry table win percentages were 15.9% and 15.7% for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Trump Plazas 1.1 point decline and
Trump Indianas 0.4 point decline in table win percentage were primarily offset by the Taj Mahals 0.9 point increase in table win percentage. Trump Marinas table win percentage remained constant year-over-year.



Slot revenues decreased $41.4 million, or 4.5%, to $874.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 2003 from $915.9 million in the comparable period in 2002 primarily due to decreased slot handle in the Atlantic City Market. Trump Indianas slot revenue increased $8.5 million to $116.0 million in 2003 from $107.5
million in the comparable period in 2002 due to a $101.3 million, or 7.2%, increase in slot handle to $1,499.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $1,398.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. This increase is attributed in
part to the implementation of 24 hours per day gaming effective July 11, 2003.



Gaming costs and expenses were $570.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, a decrease of $8.0 million, or 1.4%, from $578.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. Gaming costs at the Atlantic City
properties decreased $13.2 million from $515.7 million in 2002 to $502.5 million in 2003. This decrease is attributed to decreased payroll expenses as well as a decrease in bad debt expenses of $2.5 million. Trump Indianas gaming costs
increased $5.3 million, or 8.4%, to $68.3 million from the year ended December 31, 2002 due to increased gaming taxes associated with the increase in gaming revenues.



General and administrative expenses were $279.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, a $0.7 million decrease from
$280.5 million in the comparable period in 2002. Expense decreases of $10.8 million at the Atlantic City properties were primarily related to decreased donations of casino reinvestment obligations of $5.5 million, employee benefits, regulatory fees
and entertainment expenses offset by increases in utilities and insurance expenses. Additionally, Trump Marinas service agreement with Mr. Trump was terminated effective January 1, 2003, which caused a $3.5 million decrease in expenses at
Trump Marina in 2003. Trump Indianas general and administrative expenses increased $8.4 million in 2003 from the comparable period in 2002 primarily due to a $6.3 million real estate tax accrual resulting from a retroactive two-year
reassessment of the property which the Company intends to contest vigorously.



Included in other non-operating income for the year ended December 31, 2002, was a $0.7 million distribution from Miss Universe to THCR Holdings. There was no comparable income in 2003.



In connection with the TCH Notes Offering, THCR recognized a net gain of $2.9
million, which consisted of a net gain of $10.5 million on the retirement of the Castle Mortgage Notes and Castle PIK Notes, a $2.8 million call premium on the retirement of THCR Holdings Senior Notes, the settlement of Trump Indianas interest
rate swap of $0.9 million and the write off of unamortized loan costs of approximately $3.9 million.



Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2002 and 2001



Gaming revenues are the primary source of THCRs revenues. Table game revenues represent the amount retained by THCR from amounts wagered at table
games. The table win percentage tends to be fairly constant over the long term, but may vary significantly in the short term, due to large wagers by high rollers. THCRs table game win percentage was 16.4% and 16.5% for the years
ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Atlantic City industry table game win percentages were 15.7 % and 15.6% for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.



Table game revenues decreased $10.6 million, or 3.0%, to $337.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 from $347.7
million in the comparable period in 2001. The $12.4 million decrease in table game revenues at the Taj Mahal was primarily due to a $64.2 million decrease in table game drop. Trump Plazas table game revenues

##### Table of Contents

increase of $4.4 million was due to the $26.8 million increase in table game drop. Trump Marinas $0.9 million increase in table game revenues is
primarily due to a 0.5 point increase in table win percentage which offset the $7.1 million decrease in table game drop. Trump Indianas $3.5 million decrease in table game revenues was primarily due to a $15.6 million decrease in table game
drop, resulting from a general decrease in table game play experienced throughout the Indiana and Illinois market, a change in the Asian bus program in the third quarter of 2002, and managements decision in 2001 to eliminate high
end table player marketing efforts.



Slot revenues
increased $48.1 million, or 5.5%, to $915.9 million for the year ended December 31 , 2002 from $867.8 million in the comparable period in 2001. Increases in slot handle of $135.2 million at the Trump Marina and $32.0 million at Trump Indiana
primarily contributed to their respective increases in slot revenues in slot revenues of $14.5 million and $8.6 million, respectively. Trump Indianas increase in slot revenues is also attributed to the opening of the new 2,000 space parking
garage in 2002 and the commencement of dockside gaming in August 2002. Trump Plazas slot revenues increased $7.7 million due to a 0.3 point increase in slot win percentage which offset a $22.5 million decrease in slot handle. Trump Taj
Mahals slot revenues increased $17.3 million due to a 0.4 point increase in slot win percentage combined with a $12.4 million increase in slot handle. Overall, slot revenues increased primarily as a result of improved slot product on the
casino floor, managements continued focus on marketing initiatives and customer service, and favorable weather conditions in the first three months of 2002.



Other revenues for the years ended December 31, 2002 includes a $2.7 million management fee from the Trump 29 Casino located
in Coachella, California, for which there was no comparative revenue in 2001.



Gaming costs and expenses were $578.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, a decrease of $9.9 million, or 1.7%, from $588.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. Gaming costs at the Taj Mahal
decreased $5.8 million, or 2.4%, from the comparable period in 2001 and Trump Plazas gaming costs decreased $4.9 million, or 3.1%, from the comparable period in 2001 primarily due to decreased payroll expense and more efficient marketing
programs. Trump Marinas gaming costs increased $3.1 million primarily due to increased spending on marketing programs, which was incurred to stimulate gaming revenues. Trump Indianas gaming costs decreased $2.4 million from the
comparable period in 2001 due to labor and expense cost management. Also the State of Indianas change in assessing a $3 tax from a per person per excursion to a per person on admission to the gaming facility contributed to the decrease in
gaming expenses.



General and administrative expenses were
$280.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, a $21.5 million, or 8.3%, increase from $259.0 million in the comparable period in 2001. The increase is primarily attributed to the write-off of approximately $14.4 million of CRDA deposits by
the Atlantic City casinos, with the carrying value of $9.6 million, donated during the fourth quarter of 2002, in exchange for the right to utilize other CRDA deposits for the development of an entertainment retail district project or projects. This
increase is also attributed to higher insurance, real estate taxes, entertainment and employee benefits. Trump Marinas increase also includes incremental costs incurred related to the Trump Services Agreement. General and administrative
expenses also include expenses incurred by THCR Management of $1.1 million, including pre-opening costs of $0.6 million.



Income taxes of $5.0 million represent taxes recorded in connection with the changes to the New Jersey state income tax law enacted during July 2002 (see
Note 4).



THCR previously announced its intention to refinance
or modify the terms of its public debt which was approximately $1.7 billion aggregate principal amount as of December 31, 2002. During the year ended December 31, 2002, debt renegotiation costs of $3.3 million were incurred: $1.6 million by
Trump AC on its $1.3 billion outstanding debt, $1.3 million by Trump Marina, $0.3 million by Trump Indiana and $0.1 million by THCR Holdings. Accordingly, the debt renegotiation costs have been expensed in the accompanying Statements of
Operations. THCR and its subsidiaries will continue to seek to refinance certain debt when market conditions are favorable. See Factors That May Affect Our Future Results; We have substantial indebtedness....



Included in other non-operating income for the year ended December 31, 2002,
is a $0.7 million distribution from Miss Universe, L.P., LLLP, to THCR Holdings. There was no comparable income in 2001.



During the year ended December 31, 2002, Trump Indiana paid sales tax assessed by the State of Indiana relating to its vessel in the amount of $1.8
million. As this assessment is being appealed by Trump Indiana, it has been included in other assets. Trump Indiana believes that the $1.8 million will be recoverable on settlement of the appeal.

Seasonality



Our cash flows from operating activities are seasonal in nature. Spring and summer are traditionally the peak seasons for the Trump Atlantic City
Properties, with autumn and winter being non-peak seasons. Trump 29s peak seasons are late winter and spring. Trump Indiana generally is not seasonal. Since the Trump Atlantic City Properties account for the majority of our business, our
operating results for the two quarters ending in March and December are not historically as profitable as the two quarters ending in June and September. Any excess cash flow achieved from operations during peak seasons is used to subsidize non-peak
seasons. Performance in non-peak seasons is usually dependent on favorable weather and a long-weekend holiday calendar. In the event that we are unable to generate excess cash flows in one or more peak seasons, we may not be able to subsidize
non-peak seasons, if necessary.



Inflation



There was no significant impact on operations as a result of inflation
during 2001, 2002 or 2003.



|Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------



Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, including interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and
commodity rates. We have limited exposure to market risk due to the fact that the interest rates on our long term debt are fixed and we do not utilize these financial instruments for trading purposes.



The carrying amount of the following financial instruments approximates fair
value as follows: (a) cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables are based on the short-term nature of these financial instruments and (b) CRDA bonds and deposits are based on the allowances to give effect to the below market interest
rates.



The carrying amount and fair value of our fixed rate
indebtedness is as set forth below:

1995 Stock Incentive Plan. In June 1995, our Board of Directors adopted the Trump Hotels &
Casino Resorts, Inc. 1995 Stock Incentive Plan, or the 1995 Stock Plan. Pursuant to the 1995 Stock Plan, directors, employees and consultants of THCR and its subsidiaries and affiliates are eligible to receive awards of various forms of equity-based
incentive compensation, including stock options which are intended to qualify as incentive stock options (ISOs) under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), as well as stock options not
intended to so qualify (NQSOs), stock-appreciation rights (SARs), stock bonuses, restricted stock awards, performance units and phantom stock, and awards consisting of combinations of such incentives. The 1995 Stock Plan is
administered by the Stock Incentive Plan Committee of the Board of Directors of THCR consisting of Messrs. Trump, Askins, Ryan and Thomas (the Stock Incentive Plan Committee). Subject to the provisions of the 1995 Stock Plan, the Stock
Incentive Plan Committee has sole discretionary authority to interpret the 1995 Stock Plan and to determine the type of awards to grant, when, if and to whom awards are granted, the number of shares covered by each award and the terms and conditions
of the award.



In 1996, we obtained stockholder approval to
increase the number of shares of our common stock authorized for issuance under the 1995 Stock Plan from one million to four million.



On January 12, 2004, THCR registered the 1995 Stock Plan and the underlying THCR common stock with the SEC on a registration statement on Form S-8 (File
No.: 333-111848).



Option Grants in Fiscal 2003. No
options were granted to the Named Executive Officers during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. On June 24, 2003, each of the independent directors of THCR received non-qualified stock options to purchase 2,500 shares of THCR common stock at a
purchase price of $1.95 per share. Such options vest in five equal installments (one fifth on the date of grant and on each of the first four anniversary dates of the date of grant) and expire on the tenth anniversary date of the date of grant.

Employment Agreements,
Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements



Donald J. Trump. During 2002, Mr. Trump served as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of THCR pursuant to an executive agreement, dated as of June 12, 1995 (the Executive Agreement), by and among Trump, THCR and THCR
Holdings. Pursuant to the Executive Agreement, Trump has agreed to act as President and Chief Executive Officer of THCR and to provide THCR, THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries, from time to time when reasonably requested and on a non-exclusive
basis, consulting services relating to marketing, advertising, promotional and other similar related services with respect to the business and operations of THCR, THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries. In consideration for Mr. Trumps services
under the Executive Agreement, Trump was paid $1.5 million per year, plus reimbursement of expenses. On December 28, 1993, Marina Associates (then known as Castle Associates) entered into a services agreement (or the Castle Services Agreement) with
Trump Casinos II, Inc., or TCI-II, an entity wholly-owned by Donald J. Trump. Pursuant to the Castle Services Agreement, TCI-II agreed to provide Marina Associates consulting services on a non-exclusive basis. Upon the consummation of the

##### Table of Contents

TCH Notes Offering, Mr. Trump caused TCI-II to terminate the Castle Services Agreement under which TCI-II received the payments described as All Other
Compensation in the Summary Compensation Table.



In
consideration of Mr. Trump terminating the Castle Services Agreement, the Company determined, prior to the consummation of the TCH Notes Offering, to revisit Mr. Trumps compensation arrangements. On April 10, 2003, Mr. Trump, THCR and THCR
Holdings entered into an Amended and Restated Executive Agreement ( or the Amended Executive Agreement). The Amended Executive Agreement amends and restates the Executive Agreement and is effective as of January 1, 2003. The Amended Executive
Agreement was amended on September 17, 2003 to add Trump AC as a party. Pursuant to the Amended Executive Agreement, Mr. Trump has agreed to act as the President and Chief Executive Officer of THCR and its subsidiaries, if requested. THCR has agreed
to nominate Mr. Trump to serve as a director of THCR and, if elected, to appoint him as its Chairman. The initial term of the Amended Executive Agreement is three years and, thereafter, it is automatically extended so that the remaining term on any
date is always three years, until such time during such rolling term that either party gives written notice to the other of its election not to continue extending such term, in which case the term shall end three years form the date of which such
notice is given. THCR can terminate the Amended Executive Agreement if Mr. Trump fails to maintain various material casino gaming licenses and authorizations and the loss of such licenses has a material adverse effect on THCR and its subsidiaries.



Under the Amended Executive Agreement, Mr. Trumps annual
base salary is $1.5 million per year, beginning January 1, 2003. In addition, from and after January 1, 2003, Mr. Trump will be paid additional fixed compensation of $1.5 million per year if the Company achieves consolidated EBITDA (as defined) of
$270 million in any year and incentive compensation equal to 5.0% of THCRs consolidated EBITDA in excess of $270 million. The term Consolidated EBITDA means, with respect to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, for any
period, an amount equal to the sum of (i) the net income (or loss) of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for such period determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, excluding any
extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring gains or losses, plus (ii) all amount deducted in computing such net income (or loss) in respect of interest (including the imputed interest portions of rentals under capitalized leases), depreciation,
amortization and taxes based upon or measured by income, plus (iii) other non-cash charges arising from market value adjustments and adjustments pertaining to contributions of deposits in each case in respect of CRDA Bonds. Additional fixed
compensation and incentive compensation for a given year shall not be deducted tin determining net income of the Company for such year.



Mark A. Brown. Mr. Brown serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Plaza Associates, Taj Associates, Marina Associates and Trump
Indiana, Inc. (collectively referred to as the Trump Entities) pursuant to an employment agreement, dated August 2, 2000, or the Brown Employment Agreement, by and among Mr. Brown and Taj Associates. The Brown Employment Agreement, the term of which
was effective as of July 1, 2000 and was extended on December 11, 2002 to expire on December 31, 2006, provides for an annual salary of (i) $1.5 million for the 12-month period commencing January 1, 2003; (ii) $1.6 million for the 12-month period

Compensation of Directors



Mr. Trump, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, received no remuneration for serving as such during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. Members of our Board of Directors who are also employees or consultants of THCR and its
affiliates receive no directors fees. Non-employee directors are paid an annual stipend of $50,000, plus $2,000 per meeting attended and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending these meetings, provided that directors currently
serving on the Board of Directors of Trump AC Funding or Trump AC Holding receive no additional compensation. On June 24, 2003, each of the independent directors of THCR received non-qualified stock options to purchase 2,500 shares of THCR common
stock at a purchase price of $1.95 per share. Such options vest in five equal installments (one fifth on the date of grant and on each of the first four anniversary dates of the date of grant) and expire on the tenth anniversary date of the date of
grant.



Committees of the Board of Directors



Our Board of Directors has the following committees: (i) Executive
Committee, (ii) Audit Committee, (iii) Special Committee, (iv) Stock Incentive Plan Committee, (v) Compensation Committee and (vi) Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee. The Executive Committee consists of Mr. Trump. The Audit Committee, the
Special Committee and the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee consist of Messrs. Askins, Ryan, Thomas and McGuire, each of whom is an independent director of THCR, as defined by the rules and regulations promulgated by the NYSE.
Each member of our Board of Directors sits on the Boards Stock Incentive Plan Committee. The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Askins and Thomas. The Special Committee was established pursuant to our bylaws and the THCR Holdings
Partnership Agreement, and is empowered to vote on any matters which require approval of a majority of the independent directors of THCR, including affiliated transactions. In connection with a settlement agreement, effective on January 23, 2002, in
connection with our acquisition of Trump Marina in October 1996, we have covenanted that all proposed transactions involving THCR or THCR Holdings in which Trump has a personal interest valued over $200,000 or any transaction between THCR and any
officer or director having a value of at least $200,000 (other than transactions relating to salary or other compensation paid in the ordinary course of business), will be reviewed by the Special Committee, which shall make findings and
recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to such proposed transactions. At all times, the Special Committee is required to be comprised of at least two non-employee directors, one of whom shall be Mr. McGuire or his successor who shall
be an independent director, and no employee directors.



The
NYSE recently adopted new rules relating to corporate governance standards that apply to companies with NYSE listed securities, including THCR. The new rules apply commencing on the earlier to occur of the date of a companys 2004 annual
meeting of stockholders or October 15, 2004. We are in the process of evaluating our corporate governance standards and intend to be in compliance with the new rules by the required date.



Financial Expert



Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Askins is a financial expert (as defined by Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002). Mr.
Askins is an independent director, as that term is defined by the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, and serves on our Boards Audit Committee, Stock Incentive Plan Committee, Special Committee, Compensation Committee and
Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee. See Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant; Wallace B. Askins.



Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation



In general, our executive officers compensation is determined by our Boards Compensation Committee, which currently consists of Messrs. Askins
and Thomas. No officer or employee of THCR, other than Mr. Trump, participated in the Boards deliberations concerning executive compensation. Mr. Trump did not participate in the Compensations Committees deliberations concerning his own
compensation under the Trump Executive Agreement. See Executive Compensation; Employment Agreements, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements; Donald J. Trump.

transactions, in which the amount exceeds $60,000 and in which Mr. Trump had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Below is a brief description of such transactions. See Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

| |  | Use of Trumps Facilities. Beginning in late 1997, the Trump Atlantic City Properties began to utilize certain facilities owned by Trump to entertain high-end customers.
Management believes that the ability to utilize these facilities enhances THCRs revenues. In 2003, we paid an aggregate amount of $191,113 in consideration for the use of these facilities.

TCH Notes Offering in a private transaction with Donald J. Trump. The purchase price for the $16.7 million aggregate principal amount of THCR Holdings Senior Notes acquired from Mr. Trump consisted of the proceeds from the issuance of 1,500 shares

| | common stock of Riviera Holdings Corporation (Riviera). On July 10, 2002, Mr. Trump granted THCR Holdings, at no cost, an option (the Option) to purchase his
350,000 shares of Rivieras common stock until December 31, 2003 at an exercise price equal to the greater of (i) Mr. Trumps cost of acquiring the shares ($2,275,000 plus incurred brokerage fees and commissions) and (ii) the fair market
value of the shares based upon the 20 trading day average closing price of Rivieras common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange preceding the exercise of the Option.
| | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



On December 26, 2002, Mr. Trump purchased an additional 8,000 shares of
Rivieras common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $37,970.40, net of brokerage commissions. Mr. Trump granted, at no cost, THCR Holdings an option (the Additional Option) to purchase the 8,000 shares on the same terms as the Option.



On December 18, 2003, Mr. Trump and THCR Holdings amended the
Option and the Additional Option to extend the expiration date of the options from December 31, 2003 through December 31, 2004. See Business; New Developments and Potential Opportunities; Nevada Gaming.



Other Relationships. The SEC requires registrants to describe any
relationships that existed during the last completed fiscal year in which a registrants executive officers served on either the compensation committee (or a committee performing similar functions) or board of directors of another entity, one
of whose executive officers served on either the compensation committee (or a committee performing similar functions) or board of directors of the registrant. Donald J. Trump, Robert M. Pickus and John P. Burke are executive officers of THCR and
Messrs. Pickus and Burke served on Marina Associates Board of Partner Representatives and Trump Marina, Inc.s Board of Directors prior to the consummation of the TCH Notes Offering in March, 2003 when it was dissolved. Messrs. Trump,
Pickus and Burke are also executive officers of THCR, THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries. Mr. Trump is the Chairman of THCRs Board of Directors and of each of its subsidiaries. Mr. Pickus serves on the Boards of Directors of several of
THCRs subsidiaries. We believe that such relationships have not affected the compensation decisions made by Marina Associates Board of Partner Representatives in the last fiscal year. Messrs. Pickus and Burke are compensated for their
services through the Casino Services Agreement. See Business; Certain Agreements; Casino Services Agreement. Mr. Trump is compensated pursuant to the Amended and Restated Trump Executive Agreement. See Executive Compensation;
Employment Agreements, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements; Donald J. Trump.

|Item 12. | Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The table below sets forth the beneficial ownership of our voting securities by the Named Executive Officers, our directors
and owners of more than 5.0% of any class of our voting securities (based on their SEC reports), and all of our executive officers and directors as a group (without naming them). Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, shares of common stock
which are issuable upon the exercise of options (or the conversion of other derivative securities) currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days are deemed beneficially owned and outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage of
outstanding common stock owned by that person but are not deemed to be outstanding for purposes of computing the ownership percentage of any other person. By reason of his beneficial ownership of in excess of a majority of the outstanding common
stock of THCR (including the ability to vote certain securities described below in note 4, as if they were exchanged for common stock), Mr. Trump effectively controls THCR.

|Item 13. | Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------



Affiliated party transactions are governed the Delaware General Corporation Law, a settlement agreement pertaining to our acquisition of Trump Marina in
1996 and by the indentures under which the TAC Notes and the TCH Notes were issued. See Executive Compensation; Committees of the Board of Directors. Generally, affiliated party transactions are required to be on terms as favorable as
they would be with unaffiliated parties, and require the approval of a majority of our independent directors, Messrs. Wallace B. Askins, Don M. Thomas, Peter M. Ryan and Robert J. McGuire.



Described below are brief descriptions of transactions, or series of similar
transactions, since the beginning of our last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction or similar transactions, to which we (or any of our subsidiaries) were or are to be a party, in which the amount exceeds $60,000 and in which any of our
directors, executive officers, security holders who beneficially own more than 5.0% of our voting securities, and any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had, or will have, a direct or indirect material interest:

from Trump Tower Commercial, LLC, an entity owned by Donald J. Trump. The Trump Tower Lease expires on August 31, 2010. The annual rent, payable in equal monthly installments, during the three-year period from September 1, 2003 to August 31, 2006 is

| |  | Use of Trumps Facilities. Beginning in late 1997, the Trump Atlantic City Properties began to utilize certain facilities owned by Trump to entertain
high-end customers. Management believes that the ability to utilize these facilities enhances THCRs revenues. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, THCR incurred approximately $0.2 million in customer and management costs associated
with utilizing these facilities. In exchange for having Trumps personal airplane available to customers of

| |  | Castle Services Agreement. Pursuant to the Castle Services Agreement, which was terminated in connection with the TCH Notes Offering, TCI-II agreed to provide Marina
Associates consulting services on a non-exclusive basis, relating to marketing, advertising, promotion and other services regarding the business and operations of Marina Associates, in exchange for certain fees to be paid in those years in which
EBITDA exceeds prescribed amounts, as discussed below. For purposes of calculating the fees pursuant to the Castle Services Agreement, EBITDA represents income from operations before depreciation, amortization, refinancing costs and the non-cash
write-downs of CRDA investments.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Under the
Castle Services Agreement, the Partnership was required to pay TCI-II an annual fee of $1.5 million for each year in which EBITDA exceeded $50 million. If EBITDA in any fiscal year did not exceed such amount, no annual fee was due. In addition to
the annual fee, TCI-II was entitled to receive an incentive fee in an amount equal to 10% of EBITDA in excess of $45 million for such fiscal year. Pursuant to the Castle Services Agreement, Mr. Trump earned approximately $2.2 million and $3.5
million, based on Marina Associates EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, respectively. In connection with the TCH Notes Offering, Mr. Trump terminated the Castle Services Agreement. In consideration of Mr. Trump terminating
the Castle Services Agreement, THCR, THCR Holdings and Trump AC entered into an Amended and Restated Executive Agreement with Mr. Trump. See Executive Compensation; Employment Agreements, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control
Arrangements; Donald J. Trump.

| |  | Trademark License Agreement. Under the Trademark License Agreement, subject to certain restrictions, we have the exclusive world-wide right to use the Trump name

collectively referred to as the Trump Names, and related intellectual property rights, in connection with casino and gaming activities and related services and products. We, in turn, allow our subsidiaries to use the Trump Names under various parol
licenses which do not create enforceable licenses. The Trademark License Agreement, however, does not restrict Mr. Trumps right to use or further license the Trump Names in connection with services and products other than casino services and
related products. Under the Trademark License Agreement, THCR and Mr. Trump have agreed to indemnify each other against any damages, liability, costs, claims, fees, obligations or expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses
incurred in defense of any action under the Trademark License Agreement, provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify and hold the other party harmless shall not include any losses arising out of gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of the other party. See Business; Certain Agreements; Trademark License Agreement.

Senior Notes on the closing date of the TCH Notes Offering in a private transaction with Donald J. Trump. The purchase price for the $16.7 million aggregate principal amount of THCR Holdings Senior Notes acquired from Mr. Trump consisted of the
proceeds from the issuance of 1,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of THCR valued at $15.0 million, plus a cash amount equal to $1.7 million, plus the applicable redemption premium of 2.583% (approximately $430,000) and accrued interest of

THCR Holdings and THCR, by virtue of

Accumulation Plan ($50,000) and the preparation of the 2002 tax returns ($30,000) were reflected in the proxy on an accrual basis. Upon further review, such fees should be included in the proxy in the year service is performed as opposed to the year
in which they relate. The fees for each of these matters are included in the 2003 fee disclosure as the service was performed in 2003.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services by Independent Auditors



The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-prohibited, non-audit services provided by the independent auditors.
These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for the pre-approval of services provided by the independent auditors. Under the policy, pre-approval is
generally provided for up to one year and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is subject to a specific budget. In addition, the Audit Committee may also pre-approve particular services on a
case-by-case basis. For each proposed service, the Audit Committee has received detailed information sufficient to enable the Audit Committee to pre-approve and evaluate such service. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or
more of its members. Any pre-approval decisions made under delegated authority must be communicated to the Audit Committee at or before the next scheduled meeting. There were no waivers by the Audit Committee of the pre-approval requirement for
permissible non-audit services in 2003.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



Board of Directors

Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc.:



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 and 2003, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders equity and cash flows for the years then ended. Our audit also included the 2002 and 2003 financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the
responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. The financial statements and schedule of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc. for the
year ended December 31, 2001 were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. Those auditors expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and schedule in their report dated March 13, 2002.



We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our opinion, the
2002 and 2003 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc. at December 31, 2002 and 2003, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.



The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1, the Company has
experienced increased competition, has incurred recurring operating losses and has a working capital deficit at December 31, 2003. The Company is working on various alternatives to improve the Companys financial resources which are also
described in Note 1. Absent the successful completion of one of these alternatives, the Companys operating results will increasingly become uncertain. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a
going concern; however, the financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include those of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc. (THCR or Company), a
Delaware corporation, and Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (THCR Holdings), and its subsidiaries. THCR Holdings is an entity which is currently owned approximately 63.4% by THCR as both a
general and limited partner, and approximately 36.6% by Donald J. Trump (Trump), as a limited partner. Trumps limited partnership interest in THCR Holdings represents his economic interests in the assets and operations of THCR
Holdings. Such limited partnership interest is convertible at Trumps option into 13,918,723 shares of THCRs common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the THCR Common Stock) (subject to certain adjustments), and if converted,
would give Trump ownership of 54.5% of the THCR Common Stock (including his current share ownership) or 56.3% (assuming currently exercisable options held by Trump were exercised). Trumps limited partnership interests are represented by 1,000
shares of THCRs Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Class B Common Stock). The Class B Common Stock has the voting equivalency of 13,918,723 shares of THCR Common Stock, and generally votes on all matters with the
THCR Common Stock as a single class. The Class B Common Stock are redeemable at par to the extent that Trump converts his limited partnership interests in THCR Holdings. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include those
of THCR and its 63.4% owned subsidiary, THCR Holdings, and the wholly-owned subsidiaries of THCR Holdings:

| |  | THCR Enterprises, L.L.C. (THCR Enterprises).
| | - | ----------------------------------------------



THCRs assets consist primarily of its limited and general partnership interest in THCR Holdings. THCRs consolidated long-term debt of
approximately $1,800,000,000, consists of Trump ACs 11.25% First Mortgage Notes due 2006,( the Trump AC Mortgage Notes) (approximately $1,300,000,000 outstanding at December 31, 2003). Also included are TCHs 11.625% First
Priority Mortgage Notes due 2010, and TCHs 17.625% Second Mortgage Notes due 2010, ($404,605,000 and $66,842,000, respectively, outstanding at December 31, 2003), referred to collectively as the TCH Notes. The Trump AC Mortgage
Notes are guaranteed by TACC, Taj Associates and Plaza Associates, and are secured by substantially all of the fixed and other assets of such entities on a first priority basis. The TCH Notes are guaranteed by the TCH Subsidiaries (other than TCF
which is a co-issuer of the TCH Notes) and are secured by substantially all of the fixed and other assets of such entities on a first priority basis. The Trump AC Mortgage Notes and the TCH Notes are not cross-collateralized and an Event of Default
under one of the debt issues does not constitute an Event of Default under the other. See Note (3).



THCR has no operations, except for its ownership, through THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries, of Taj Associates, Plaza Associates, Marina Associates, Trump Indiana and
the management of Trump 29. The majority of THCRs revenues are derived from its gaming operations. Competition in the Atlantic City and Indiana casino markets is intense and management believes that this competition will continue as more
casinos are opened and new entrants into the gaming industry become operational. THCR, through THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries, is the exclusive vehicle through which Trump engages in new gaming activities in emerging or established gaming
jurisdictions. The Company views each casino property as an operating segment and all such operating segments have been aggregated into one reporting segment. Each casino property derives its revenues from casino operations, room rentals, food and
beverage sales and entertainment revenue.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003



The Company has incurred recurring operating losses which totaled $25.3 million, $12.0 million, and
$87.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002, and 2003, respectively and has a working capital deficit of $46.9 million at December 31, 2003. The recurring operating losses are primarily the result of substantial debt service
obligations on outstanding indebtedness. In 2004, the Companys debt service obligation is approximately $225 million. Additionally, the Company has experienced increased competition and other challenges in its markets. Due to these factors,
the Company has not been able to expand its operations or reinvest in the maintenance of its owned properties at desired levels. Furthermore, the Company does not currently have any short-term borrowing capacity available. Although the Company
anticipates that it will have sufficient funds on hand to provide for the scheduled debt service obligations on its outstanding indebtedness during 2004, there can be no assurances such funds will be available.



As a result of these factors, management has reviewed various financing
alternatives. As discussed in Note 13, the Company announced that it has entered into an exclusivity agreement with DLJ Merchant Bankers III, L.P. (DLJMB) in connection with a proposed $400 million equity investment by DLJMB to sponsor a
comprehensive recapitalization of the Company. On the same date as the announcement of the Potential Recapitalization, certain credit agencies downgraded certain of the Companys indebtedness. The Potential Recapitalization is contingent upon a
variety of factors. No assurances can be made that the Potential Recapitalization will occur, or if it does occur, that it will occur on terms acceptable to the Company to allow the Company to meet its obligations as they become due. Additionally,
management has implemented programs to obtain cash flow savings and will continue to attempt to implement such programs in the upcoming year if the Potential Recapitalization does not occur. These programs include labor savings through increased
automation of the Companys slot machine product on the gaming floor and the further reduction of planned capital expenditures and maintenance programs. However, there can be no assurances that these programs will be successful for any
protracted period of time. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may
result from the outcome of this uncertainty or the comprehensive recapitalization.



All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.



|(2) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|--- | ------------------------------------------



Use of Estimates



The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results may differ from these estimates.



Revenue
Recognition



Gaming revenues represent the net win from
gaming activities, which is the difference between gaming wins and losses. Revenue from hotel and other services are recognized at the time the related services are performed.



THCR provides an allowance for doubtful accounts arising from casino, hotel and other services, which is based upon a
specific review of certain outstanding receivables as well as historical collection information. In determining the amount of the allowance, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those
estimates and assumptions.



Promotional Allowances



The retail value of accommodations, food, beverage and
other services provided to patrons without charge is included in gross revenues and deducted as promotional allowances. The estimated departmental costs of providing such promotional allowances are included in gaming costs and expenses in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations and consist of:



|                  |  |      |             |      |   |             |  |   |

|Food and beverage |  |      | 78,569,000  |      |   | 73,551,000  |  |   | 72,477,000

|                  |  |      |             |      |   |             |  |   |

|                  |  |      |             |      |   |             |  |   |            



Promotional allowances
also include volume based cash rebates and coin given to patrons.



Cash discounts based upon a negotiated amount with each patron are recognized as a promotional allowance on the date the related revenue is recorded. Cash-back program awards that are given to patrons based upon earning points for future
awards are accrued as the patron earns the points. The amount is recorded as a reduction of revenue in the statement of operations. When estimating the amount of the accrual, the Company calculates a redemption rate based upon historical redemption
rates.

The Company offers its patrons other incentive programs. These programs are monthly gifts and other
promotional items. Management elects the type of gift and person to whom it will be given. Since these awards are not cash awards, the Company records them as gaming expenses in its statement of operations. Such amounts are expensed on the date the
award can be utilized by the patron.



Statements of Cash
Flows



For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash
and cash equivalents include hotel and casino funds, funds on deposit with banks and temporary investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less.



Inventories



Inventories of provisions and supplies are carried at the lower of cost (weighted average) or market value.



Property and Equipment



Property and equipment is carried at cost and is depreciated on the
straight-line method using rates based on the following estimated useful lives:



|                                    |  |           
|----------------------------------- |  | ----------
|Buildings and building improvements |  | 40 years  
|Riverboat                           |  | 30 years  
|Furniture, fixtures and equipment   |  | 2-10 years
|Leasehold improvements              |  | 4-40 years



Depreciation expense
also includes amortization of assets under capital lease obligations.



Long-Lived Assets



In accordance with the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, management assesses the carrying values of the Companys assets when events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current
operating results, trends and prospects, as well as the effect of demand, competition and other economic factors. In circumstances where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal
to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. In estimating expected future cash flows for determining whether an asset is impaired, assets are grouped at the operating unit level, which for most of our assets is the
individual casino. In estimating the fair value of an asset, management utilizes the prices of similar assets and the results of other valuation techniques. The Company does not believe that any such changes have occurred.



Investment in Buffington Harbor Riverboats, L.L.C.



THCR accounts for its investment in the Buffington Harbor Riverboats, L.L.C.
(BHR) (a 50% joint venture between Trump Indiana and the Majestic Star Casino, L.L.C. (Barden)) under the equity method of accounting. Trump Indiana and Barden formed BHR and entered into an agreement (the BHR
Agreement) relating to the joint ownership, development and operation of all common land-based and waterside operations in support of each of Trump Indianas and Bardens separate riverboat casinos at Buffington Harbor. Trump Indiana
and Barden are equally responsible for the operating expenses of the common land-based facilities at the site. There can be no assurance that Trump Indiana and/or Barden will be able to fund their respective share of future capital contributions or
operating expenses.



In accordance with the BHR Agreement,
Trump Indiana and Barden pay berthing and other fees in an amount to cover the operating expenses of BHR. Berthing fees and other fees paid are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. As of
December 31, 2002, BHR had amounts due to Trump Indiana of $378,000. As of December 31, 2003, Trump Indiana had approximately $2,189,000 due to BHR.

In September 2000,
Buffington Harbor Parking Associates (BHPA) was formed as a joint venture between Trump Indiana and Barden for the purpose of constructing and operating a parking garage. The estimated cost of the parking garage, including the land, was
approximately $25,000,000.



BHPA separately leases the parking
garage to each of (i) Trump Indiana pursuant to a parking lease, dated June 19, 2001 (the Trump Indiana Garage Lease), and (ii) Barden under a substantially identical lease agreement. The term of the Trump Indiana Garage Lease is until
December 31, 2018. The initial rent installment, paid by Trump Indiana for the Trump Indiana Garage Lease, was approximately $8,800,000, which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. In addition, Trump Indiana is
obligated to pay BHPA a monthly rent equal to (i) 50% of BHPAs debt service on the $17,100,000 financing (the Financing) to build the parking garage and (ii) 50% of any construction costs incurred by BHPA in excess of the net
proceeds of the Financing. In the event either lessee defaults on its rental obligation under its garage lease with BHPA, the other party will be obligated to pay rent in an amount sufficient to satisfy 100% of BHPAs debt service obligations
on the Financing. Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 was $829,000 and $3,120,000, respectively. No rent expense was incurred in 2001 as the parking garage was completed in 2002.



Deferred Financing Costs



Financing costs, including underwriters discounts and direct
transactional fees (including accounting, legal and printing), associated with the issuance of debt have been capitalized as deferred bond and loan issuance costs in the accompanying balance sheet and are being amortized to interest expense over the
terms of the related debt. For costs incurred related to refinancing efforts no longer pursued and transactional fees earned by employees upon the successful completion of a debt refinancing, such amounts are expensed as incurred.

Advertising Expense



The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense was $12,022,000, $11,704,000 and
$11,675,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively.



Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities



The Company accounts for derivative instruments and hedging activities under Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and SAS
No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities  an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. The Company recognizes derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.



It is the policy of the Company to identify, on a continuing basis, the need
for debt capital, and evaluate the financial risk inherent in funding the Company with debt capital. Reflecting the results of this ongoing review, the debt portfolio and hedging program of the Company is managed with the objective and intent to
reduce the interest rate risk of the debt in accordance with certain debt management parameters. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to change the fixed/variable rate debt within the parameters established by management. In
accordance with these parameters, the agreements are used to reduce interest rate risks and costs inherent in the Companys debt portfolio. Accordingly, at December 31, 2002, the Company had an interest rate swap agreement to effectively
convert variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. During 2003, in connection with the Companys debt refinancing (see Note 3), the Company paid off this debt and terminated the related interest rate swap (which resulted in a charge to interest
expense of $938,000).



Accumulated Other Comprehensive
Income



SAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income, established the concept of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus revenue, expenses, gains and losses, that under generally accepted accounting principles, is comprised of changes in the fair value of
derivatives and hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges. The Companys accumulated other comprehensive income is presented in the consolidated statement of stockholders equity.



Stock-based Compensation Plans



THCR has stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more
fully in Note 8. The Company applies the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for
those plans. For stock options, no compensation expense is reflected in net income as all stock options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Pro forma information regarding net
income and earnings per share is required by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its stock plans under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. Pro forma
results are not necessarily indicative of the pro forma results for any future period. For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options vesting period. The following
table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123:



|                                                                                                           |  |                         |             |   |      |   |             |      |  |   |             |

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share



Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of
shares of THCR Common Stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share includes the impact of common stock options using the treasury stock method unless such options are anti-dilutive. The shares of THCRs Class B Common Stock owned by Trump have
no economic interest and therefore are not considered in the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding. The 13,918,723 shares of THCR Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Trumps limited partnership interest in THCR Holdings
are excluded in the calculation of earnings (loss) per share since they would be anti-dilutive.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.
This standard addresses the financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after June15,
2002. The effect of adoption had no impact on the Companys financial results.



Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the FASBs Interpretation No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of
Others, an Interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34 (FIN 45). The interpretation requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the entity must recognize a liability for the
fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including roll-forward of the entitys product warranty liabilities. This interpretation is
intended to improve the comparability of financial reporting by requiring identical accounting for guarantees issued with separately identified consideration and guarantees issued without separately identified consideration. Adoption of this
interpretation has no material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity.



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB
51. The primary objectives of this interpretation are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (variable interest entities) and how to
determine when and which business enterprise ( the primary beneficiary) should consolidate the variable interest entity. This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (i) the equity investors (if any) do not have
a controlling financial interest; or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entitys activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that the
primary beneficiary, as well as all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, make additional disclosures. Certain disclosure requirements of FIN 46 were effective for financial statements issued after
January 31, 2003. In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46-R) to address certain FIN 46 implementation issues. The effective dates and impact of FIN
46 and FIN 46-R are as follows: (i) Special-purpose entities (SPEs) created prior to February 1, 2003- the company must apply either the provisions of FIN 46 or early adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R at the end of the first interim or
annual reporting period ending after December 15, 2003; (ii) Non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003- the company is required to adopt FIN 46-R at the end of the first interim or annual reporting period ending after March 15, 2004; and (iii) All
entities, regardless of whether an SPE, that were created subsequent to January 31, 2003- the provisions of FIN 46 were applicable for variable interests in entities obtained after January 1, 2003. The adoption of the provisions applicable to SPEs
and all other variable interests obtained after January 1, 2003 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of
adopting FIN 46-R applicable to Non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003 but does not expect a material impact.



Other Assets



Plaza Associates is appealing a real estate tax assessment by the City of Atlantic City. As of December 31, 2002 and 2003, other assets include
$8,014,000, which Plaza Associates believes will be recoverable on the settlement of the appeal.



Included in other assets is a $1,822,000 payment for sales and use tax assessed on Trump Indianas riverboat vessel, which is being appealed. The
Company made this payment in 2002 in order to avoid incurring interest and penalties while this matter is under appeal. Trump Indianas appeal is based on the fact that it pays property taxes on the riverboat vessel as the vessel was determined
to be real property by the taxing authority, and therefore, not susceptible to a use tax. Management believes that the amount will be fully recoverable upon settlement of the appeal.

Minority Interest



Minority interest represents the 36.6% limited partner interest held by Trump. The minority interest liability in the
consolidated balance sheet is adjusted with the proportionate share of the earnings (losses) of THCR. During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the minority interest liability was completely eliminated through past losses. Consequently, losses will
no longer be allocated to minority interest.



Reclassifications



Certain reclassifications
and disclosures have been made to the prior year financial statements in order to conform to the current year presentation.

First Mortgage Notes due May 1, 2006 (the TAC I Notes). Interest on the TAC I Notes is due semiannually. The TAC Notes are guaranteed as to payment of principal and interest, jointly and severally, by Taj Associates, Plaza Associates,
Trump AC and all future subsidiaries of Trump AC (other than Trump AC Funding). The TAC I Notes are jointly and severally secured by mortgages representing a first lien and security interest on substantially all the assets of Taj Associates and
Plaza Associates. The indenture pursuant to which the TAC I Notes were issued restricts the ability of Trump AC and its subsidiaries to make distributions or to pay dividends, as the case may be, unless certain financial ratios are achieved. In
addition, the ability of Taj Associates and Plaza Associates to make payments of dividends or distributions (except for payment of interest) through Trump AC to THCR Holdings may be restricted by the New Jersey Casino Control Commission (the
CCC).

11.25% First Mortgage Notes due May 1, 2006 (the TAC II Notes). In December 1997, Trump AC and Trump AC Funding III issued $25,000,000 principal amount of 11.25 % First Mortgage Notes due May 1, 2006 (the TAC III Notes and

Also, in connection with the TCH Notes Offering, $141.9 million principal amount of the Castle PIK Notes and $35.5 million
principal amount of THCR Holdings Senior Notes held by THCR Enterprises and THCR Holdings, respectively, were cancelled without payment.



Included in the $96.9 million principal amount (including call premium) of THCR Holdings Senior Notes purchased with the net proceeds of the TCH Notes
Offering, $1.7 million principal amount of THCR Holdings Senior Notes were held by Trump. THCR Holdings also acquired an additional $15.0 million principal amount of THCR Holdings Senior Notes on the closing date of the TCH Notes Offering in a
private transaction with Donald J. Trump. The purchase price of the aggregate $16.7 million principal amount of THCR Holdings Senior Notes acquired from Trump consisted of the proceeds from the issuance of 1,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
par value $1.00 per share, of THCR valued at $15.0 million, plus a cash amount equal to $1.7 million plus the applicable redemption premium of 2.583% (approximately $430,000) and accrued interest of approximately $700,000 on the entire $16,730,000
principal amount of THCR Holdings Senior Notes sold by Trump. The Series A Preferred Stock of THCR, upon stockholder approval obtained at the annual stockholders meeting on June 12, 2003, were exchanged by Trump on July 11, 2003 for an
aggregate of 7,894,737 shares of THCR Common Stock.



Financing
costs, including underwriters discounts of 2.5% to the purchasers of the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes and 10% to the purchasers of the TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes and direct transactional fees (including accounting, legal and
printing), have been capitalized as deferred bond and loan issuance costs in the accompanying balance sheet and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt.



In connection with the refinancing, THCR recognized a net gain of $2.9 million, which consists of a net gain of $10.5
million on the retirement of the Castle Mortgage Notes and the Castle PIK Notes, a $2.8 million call premium on the retirement of THCR Holdings Senior Notes, the settlement of Trump Indianas interest rate swap for $0.9 million and the
write-off of unamortized loan costs of approximately $3.9 million.



Pursuant to the indentures governing the TCH Notes, TCH and TCF filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No: 333-104916) with the SEC to register notes having substantially identical terms as the TCH Notes, or the Exchange Notes, as
part of an offer to exchange freely tradable Exchange Notes for the TCH Notes. The SEC declared the registration statement effective on July 10, 2003, and holders exchanged their TCH Notes for Exchange Notes on August 13, 2003.

Also, TCH and TCF filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No.: 333-105760) with the SEC to
register for potential resale $15.0 million principal amount of Second Priority Notes purchased by Trump concurrently with the TCH Notes Offering. The SEC declared the registration statement effective on August 6, 2003. Trump has advised the Company
that he does not currently have any intentions of selling his Second Priority Notes.



The interest rate on the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes will increase by 0.5 % per annum if TCHs First Priority Leverage Ratio for any fiscal year, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2003, exceeds
4.8 to 1.0, and by 1.0 % per annum if the First Priority Leverage Ratio exceeds 5.3 to 1.0. Similarly, the rate of interest payable in cash on the TCH Second Priority Mortgage Notes will increase by 0.5% per annum or 1.0% per annum if the First
Priority Leverage Ratio for any fiscal year, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2003, exceeds 4.8 to 1.0 or 5.3 to 1.0, respectively. For these purposes, the term First Priority Leverage Ratio for any year is defined generally
as the ratio of (a) the total outstanding principal amount of the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes (plus other indebtedness, if any, ranking pari passu with the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes) as of December 31, of such year to (b) the
Consolidated EBITDA of TCH without duplication, the sum of consolidated net income, plus consolidated tax expense, plus consolidated depreciation and amortization expense, plus consolidated fixed charges and non-cash charges related to regulatory
write downs for the year.



The First Priority Leverage Ratio
for the year ended December 31, 2003 resulted in an increase in the interest rates on the TCH Notes of 1.0%. Such increase is effective from and after March 15, 2004 to March 14, 2005, at which point the rates of interest payable on the TCH Notes
would be restored to their original levels, unless the TCH First Priority Leverage Ratio computation for 2004 results in an increase.



The Company can redeem the TCH Notes at the redemption prices for the fiscal period beginning March 15 as indicated in the below table:



|                    |  |                |   |  |                 |

Notwithstanding the
foregoing paragraph, at any time prior to March 15, 2006, the Company may on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the TCH First Priority Mortgage Notes and up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the TCH
Second Priority Mortgage Notes at a redemption price of 111.625 % with the net cash proceeds of any equity offering as defined in the indentures governing the TCH Notes.



The indentures governing the TCH Notes contain various restrictions including the ability of TCH (and mostly all of its
subsidiaries) to incur additional debt, pay dividends, issue stock or repurchase stock, make capital expenditures, or merge with another entity. The TCH Notes are guaranteed by each of the subsidiaries of TCH (other than TCF which is one of the
issuers) fully and unconditionally and on a senior secured basis. Substantially all assets of TCH and its subsidiaries are pledged as security on the TCH Notes.



|(g) | On June 12, 2002, Marina Associates entered into a $70,000,000 term credit facility (the
Term Credit Facility) which was to mature on November 1, 2003 and bore interest at a rate based on the Eurodollar rate (LIBOR based) (6.9375% as of December 31, 2002). The Term Credit Facility was repaid with the net proceeds of the TCH
Notes Offering during 2003. See Note 3(f).

$27,500,000. On March 25, 2003, this debt was repaid and the interest rate swap terminated with the net proceeds of the TCH Notes Offering. See Note 3(f).
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(i) | Mortgage notes payable, bridge loan and capitalized lease obligations with interest rates
ranging from 0.9% to 18.2%. The notes and lease obligations are due at various dates between 2004 and 2007 and are secured by underlying real property or equipment. Included in this amount is a 24 month loan agreement at 4.25% entered into on May
30, 2003, by Trump Indiana, Inc. with a bank for $5,000,000. Proceeds from the loan were used to purchase slot equipment which secures the loan.

The various debt
agreements restrict the ability of THCR Holdings and its subsidiaries to make distributions or pay dividends unless certain financial ratios are achieved. In addition, the ability of Taj Associates, Plaza Associates or Marina Associates to make
payments to THCR Holdings may be restricted by the CCC. Similarly, the ability of Trump Indiana to make distributions or pay dividends to THCR Holdings may be restricted by the Indiana Gaming Commission (IGC).



|(4) | Income Taxes
|--- | ------------



The accompanying financial statements do not include a provision for federal income taxes since (i) THCR has net operating loss (NOL)
carryforwards of approximately $428,000,000 for which a valuation allowance has been provided due to the uncertainty of its realization, (ii) Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates income or losses are allocated to
the partners and are reportable for federal income tax purposes by the partners, and (iii) Trump Indiana, which is a C Corporation, had sufficient NOL carryforwards to offset taxable income generated during each of the periods presented. The federal
NOL carryforwards of THCR expire from 2010 through 2023, and the federal NOL carryforwards at Trump Indiana expire from 2013 through 2023.



Under the New Jersey Casino Control Act (the Casino Control Act), Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates are required to
file a New Jersey corporation business tax return. As of December 31, 2003, Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates had NOL carryforwards of approximately $155,000,000, $220,000,000 and $117,000,000, respectively, for New Jersey state
income tax purposes. The NOL carryforwards result in a deferred tax asset of $44,000,000, for which a valuation allowance has been provided due to the uncertainty of the realization. The New Jersey state NOL carryforwards expire from 2004
through 2010.



On July 3, 2002, the State of New
Jersey passed the New Jersey Business Tax Reform Act (the Act). This Act, among other things, requires the suspension of the use of the New Jersey NOL carryforwards for two years and the introduction of a new alternative minimum
assessment under the New Jersey corporate business tax based on either gross receipts or gross profits, as defined. The Act is retroactive to January 1, 2002. In accordance with the Act, the Company has recorded a provision for current income tax
expense of $4,968,000 and $4,780,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively.



On July 1, 2003, the New Jersey legislature passed a law that increased the taxation of New Jersey casinos. The new law imposes, among other taxes, a New
Jersey Profits Tax which imposes a 7.5 % tax on each casinos 2002 adjusted net income (defined as net income plus management fees) subject to a minimum annual tax of $350,000. The tax is assessed during the period from July 1 to June 30, to be
consistent with the fiscal year of the State of New Jersey. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded a charge to income tax expense on the statement of operations for $525,000 related to the New Jersey Profits Tax. The legislation
additionally imposes a 4.25 % tax on complimentaries (i.e. free rooms, food, beverages and entertainment given to patrons), an increase in the hotel tax of $3.00 per day on each occupied room, and increases the parking fee tax from $1.50 to $3.00
per car per day.

Certain of these
leases contain options to purchase the leased properties at various prices throughout the leased terms.



Employment Agreements



THCR has entered into employment agreements with certain key employees. As of December 31, 2003, THCR had approximately $20,538,000 of annual commitments
under employment agreements. These commitments mature at various dates through 2006.



CAFRA Agreement



Taj Associates received a permit under the Coastal Area Facilities Review Act (CAFRA) (which included a condition of Taj Associates casino license) that initially required
Taj Associates to begin construction of certain improvements on the Steel Pier by October 1992, which improvements were to be completed within 18 months of commencement. Taj Associates initially proposed a concept to improve the Steel Pier, the
estimated cost of which was $30,000,000. Such concept was approved by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, the agency which administers CAFRA. In March 1993, Taj Associates obtained a modification of its CAFRA permit providing for
the extension of the required commencement and completion dates of the improvements to the Steel Pier for one year, which has been renewed annually, based upon an interim use of the Steel Pier as an amusement park. The pier sublease terminates on
December 31, 2012 unless extended.

New Jersey Casino License Regulations and Renewal



The operation of an Atlantic City hotel and casino is subject to significant
regulatory controls which affect virtually all of its operations. Under the Casino Control Act, Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates are required to maintain certain licenses. Casino licenses must be renewed periodically, are not
transferable, are dependent on the financial stability of the licensee and can be revoked at any time.



In June 2003, the CCC consolidated and renewed Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates licenses to operate Trump Taj
Mahal, Trump Plaza and Trump Marina, respectively, for the next four year period through 2007. Upon revocation, suspension for more than 120 days, or failure to renew a casino license, the Casino Control Act provides for the mandatory appointment of
a conservator to take possession of the hotel and casinos business and property, subject to all valid liens, claims and encumbrances.



Indiana Gaming Regulations



The ownership and operation of riverboat gaming operations in Indiana are subject to strict state regulations under the Riverboat Gambling Act (the
Act) and the administrative rules promulgated thereunder. The Company is required to renew its riverboat owners license with the Indiana Gaming Commission (the IGC) on an annual basis. In June 2003, the IGC granted
Trump Indiana a riverboat owners license, which was renewed until June 2004. The IGC may place restrictions, conditions or requirements on the permanent riverboat owners license. An owners initial license expires five years after
the effective date of the license, and unless the owners license is terminated, expires or is revoked, the owners license may be renewed annually by the IGC upon satisfaction of certain conditions contained in the Act. The IGC has
adopted certain rules and has published others in proposed or draft form which are proceeding through the review and final adoption process. The IGC also has indicated its interest to predict what effect, if any, the amendment of existing rules or
the finalization of new rules might have on the operations of Trump Indiana.

As a condition to the Certificate of Suitability, Trump Indiana has committed to invest approximately $153,000,000 in the Indiana Riverboat, including
certain related projects of the City of Gary, Indiana. Failure to comply with the foregoing conditions and/or failure to continue riverboat operations as required by the IGC may result in revocation of the Certificate of Suitability. There can be no
assurance that Trump Indiana will be able to comply with the terms of the Certificate of Suitability. As part of the $153,000,000 commitment discussed above, Trump Indiana is obligated to fund $21,000,000 of specific economic development and
infrastructure projects of the City of Gary. This obligation has been fully accrued over the five-year license period. The final charge to operations of approximately $668,000 was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2001. As of December 31,
2003, $4,975,000 remains payable to the City of Gary related to the total $153,000,000 commitment discussed above.



In addition, Trump Indiana established the Trump Indiana Foundation (Foundation), a private foundation founded for charitable purposes
primarily within the City of Gary and Lake County, Indiana. Trump Indiana initially funded $1,000,000 to the Foundation and is required to make annual contributions of $100,000.



Indiana Wagering Tax Add-back



In July 1999, the Indiana Department of Revenue (Department) issued a Letter of Findings to an Indiana gaming
company that the Riverboat Wagering Tax (RWT), a tax deducted in computing Federal taxable income, is not deductible when computing Indiana adjusted gross income because the RWT represents a tax that is based on or measured by
income. The entity that received the Letter of Findings, with the assistance of the Indiana Casino Association, of which Trump Indiana is a member, is vigorously contesting this finding in the Indiana Tax Court on the basis that the RWT is an
excise tax, which is excluded from Indianas add-back requirements. The Department has issued proposed assessments of $3,720,000 plus interest for the 1996, 1997 and 1998 calendar years to Trump Indiana. The Company has estimated that the
amount of the potential exposure for the period of 1999 through 2003, including interest is approximately $16.3 million. Trump Indiana filed a written protest of assessments with the Department in November 2000 and plans to contest this
matter vigorously. No accrual has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements as management does not believe a loss is probable based upon the information known at this time. It is reasonably possible that the Companys estimates
related to this matter may change in the near term based upon the ultimate findings of the Tax Court related to the proposed assessments.



The Department has agreed to stay further proceedings with the Trump Indiana proposed assessments until the Indiana Tax Court case noted above is
resolved. A summary judgment motion hearing of the Tax Court was held in April 2001 and the findings of the Tax Court are pending.

Gaming Taxes



The Atlantic City Casinos are required to pay an annual tax of 8.0% on their gross casino revenues. For the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, the Companys gross revenue tax was $90,699,000, $92,135,000 and $87,394,000, respectively.



Under Indianas gaming law prior to August 5, 2002, a tax was imposed on admissions to gaming excursions at a rate of $3 for each person admitted to
the gaming excursion. Beginning on August 5, 2002, under Indianas gaming law, a $3 tax is imposed on admission to the gaming facility and no longer per excursion. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, the Company paid admission
fees of approximately $9,496,000, $7,975,000 and $ 4,966,000, respectively.



The State of Indiana also imposes a tax on adjusted gaming receipts, as defined. The amount of this tax was 20% through July 1, 2002; 22.5% from July 1, 2002 to August 5, 2002; and a graduated rate subsequent to
August 5, 2002, as follows:



|                  |  |      
|----------------- |  | -----
|Gaming Receipts   |  | Tax %
|$0$25 Million    |  | 15%  
|$25$50 Million   |  | 20%  
|$50$75 Million   |  | 25%  
|$75$150 Million  |  | 30%  
|Over $150 Million |  | 35%  



For the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, Trump Indiana paid state gaming taxes of approximately $24,873,000, $24,776,000 and $33,910,000, respectively.



During 2003, the State of Indiana passed a legislative bill that retroactively recalculated the amount of gaming wagering tax due to the State of Indiana.
The amount of the assessment was $1,900,000 and was recorded as gaming expenses in the statement of operations. Approximately half of this amount was paid in 2003 and the remaining portion is due in 2004.



A tax is imposed by the City of Gary on the adjusted gaming receipts, as
defined, at a rate of 4%. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, Trump Indiana paid $4,167,000, $5,140,000 and $5,382,000 to the City of Gary, respectively.



Indiana Property Tax Reassessment



During January 2004, the Company received a reassessment notice that increased the valuation of its property in Lake County
Indiana where Trump Indiana is located. The Companys Buffington Harbor joint ventures also received a reassessment notice. The reassessments, which affect the 2002 and 2003 calendar tax years, significantly increased the valuation of the
assets. As a result of these reassessments, the Company recorded a charge to operations during 2003 of approximately $6,300,000 to reflect the increase in assessed values. Management intends to appeal the assessments as management believes that the
reassessments are excessive and not reflective of the value of the assets being assessed. If the Company is successful on the appeal, any credit received would be recognized in the Companys operating statement in the period in which the credit
is realized.



Legal Proceedings



THCR and its subsidiaries, certain members of its former Executive
Committee, and certain of its employees have been involved in various legal proceedings. In general, THCR has agreed to indemnify such persons against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses (including reasonable costs, disbursements and
counsel fees) and liabilities (including amounts paid or incurred in satisfaction of settlements, judgments, fines and penalties) incurred by them in said legal proceedings.



Various legal proceedings are now pending against THCR and its subsidiaries. THCR considers all such proceedings to be
ordinary litigation incident to the character of its business. THCR believes that the resolution of these claims will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.



Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates are
also a party to various administrative proceedings involving allegations that they have violated certain provisions of the Casino Control Act. Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates believe that the final outcome of these proceedings
will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on their financial condition, results of operations or on their ability to otherwise retain or renew any casino or other licenses required under the Casino Control Act
for the operation of the respective properties.

Commencing in early 1994, Trump Indiana, through its Indiana counsel, had discussion with eight
Indiana residents regarding the potential purchase by such residents of 7.5% of the nonvoting stock of Trump Indiana. These residents had asserted a right to purchase stock in Trump Indiana. During 1997 and 1998, Trump Indiana settled with six of
the plaintiffs. During 1999, the remaining two plaintiffs commenced litigation. On March 3, 1999, consequential damages were assessed by the United States District Court against Trump Indiana for breach of contract in the amount of $1,334,000 and
Trump Indiana recorded a charge to operations for this matter during 1999. In June 2001, the United States Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the lower courts ruling and remanded the case back to the United States District Court for
another trial. On September 3, 2002, the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit summarily affirmed the entry of final judgment by the United States District Court in favor of Trump Indiana, Inc. Plaintiffs Petitions for
Rehearing of this decision were also summarily denied by the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals on October 17, 2002. The deadline for further appeal of these decisions has expired. As a result, the March 3, 1999 verdict in favor of the plaintiffs and
against Trump Indiana, Inc. in the amount of $1,334,000 has been reversed and final judgment has been entered on behalf of Trump Indiana; accordingly, Trump Indiana reversed the liability previously recorded in 1999 and recorded a non-operating gain
of $1,334,000 in the accompanying 2002 statement of operations.



Self-Insurance Reserves



Self-insurance
reserves represent the estimated amounts of uninsured claims related to employee health medical costs, workers compensation and personal injury claims that have occurred in the normal course of business. These reserves are established by
management based upon a specific review of open claims, with consideration of incurred but not reported claims as of the balance sheet date. The costs of the ultimate disposition of these claims may differ from these reserve amounts.



Federal Income Tax Examination



Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates are currently
involved in examinations with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concerning Taj Associates federal partnership income tax returns for the tax years 1994 through 1996, Plaza Associates federal partnership income tax returns
for the tax years 1993 through 1996 and Marina Associates federal partnership tax returns for the tax years 1993 through 1996. While any adjustment which results from this examination could affect Taj Associates, Plaza Associates
and Marina Associates state income tax returns, Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates do not believe that adjustments, if any, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.



Trump Indiana is currently undergoing an IRS examination for
the years 1995 through 1997. Although the outcome of the examination is not complete, management believes there will be no material impact to the Companys financial condition or results of operation.



Casino Reinvestment Development Authority Obligations



Pursuant to the provisions of the Casino Control Act, the Company must
either obtain investment tax credits, as defined in the Casino Control Act, in an amount equivalent to 1.25% of its gross casino revenues, as defined in the Casino Control Act, or pay an alternative tax of 2.5% of its gross casino revenues.
Investment tax credits may be obtained by making qualified investments, as defined, or by depositing funds which may be converted to bonds by the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA), both of which bear interest at two-thirds
of market rates resulting in a fair value lower than cost. Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates are required to make quarterly deposits with the CRDA to satisfy its investment obligations.



For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, THCR charged to
operations, on the date funds were deposited with the CRDA, amounts of $5,276,000, $4,818,000 and $4,673,000, respectively, to give effect to the below market interest rates associated with CRDA deposits and bonds. From time to time, Taj Associates,
Plaza Associates and Marina Associates have elected to donate funds they have on deposit with the CRDA for various projects. The Company is not obligated to make donations to any specific project, and management elects to donate funds based on the
specific facts of each potential donation transaction. Donations in the amounts of $1,275,000, $15,118,000 and $7,368,000 were made during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. As a result of these donations, the Company
charged to operations $596,000, $9,988,000 and $4,518,000 during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

THCR has a retirement savings plan, the Trump Capital Accumulation Plan, (the Plan), for its nonunion employees under Section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code. Employees are eligible to contribute up to 20% of their earnings to the Plan in 2001, 2002 and 2003. THCR will match 50% of the first 6% of an eligible employees contributions in 2001, 2002 and 2003. In connection with
this Plan, THCR recorded charges of $4,654,000, $4,595,000 and $4,470,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively.



Taj Associates, Plaza Associates and Marina Associates make payments to various trusteed multi employer pension plans under industry-wide union
agreements. Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, THCR may be liable for its share of unfunded liabilities, if any, if the plans are terminated. Pension expense for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003 was $4,699,000,
$5,049,000 and $5,626,000, respectively.

THCR revenues. In 2001, 2002 and 2003, THCR incurred approximately $628,000, $ 826,000 and $191,000 respectively, for customer and management costs associated with such utilization. In exchange for having Trumps plane available to customers of
the Atlantic City properties, THCR has incurred pilot costs of approximately $302,000, $315,000 and $296,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

unpaid services) and is paid $150,000 per year, payable in weekly installments, and reasonable and customary expenses incurred in connection with providing the services. Ms. Brown is the wife of Mark Brown, THCRs Chief Operating Officer.



Trump Management Fee



Pursuant to a services agreement, dated December 28, 1993, or the Castle
Services Agreement, between Marina Associates and Trump Casinos II, Inc.( TCI-II), an entity wholly-owned by Trump. Trump provided consulting services to Marina Associates. Pursuant to the terms of the Castle Services Agreement, TCI-II
was obligated to provide Marina Associates, from time to time, when reasonably requested, consulting services on a non-exclusive basis, relating to marketing, advertising, promotional and other similar and related services with respect to the
business and operations of Marina Associates, including such other services as the managing partner of Marina Associates may reasonably request.



Pursuant to the Castle Services Agreement, Marina Associates was required to pay an annual fee in the amount of $1,500,000 to TCI-II for each year in
which Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), as defined, exceeded $50,000,000. In addition if the annual fee is attained, TCI-II is to receive an incentive fee equal to 10% of the excess EBITDA over
$45,000,000 for such fiscal years. In connection with the TCH Notes Offering, the Castle Services Agreement was terminated effective January 1, 2003.



For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, Marina Associates incurred fees and expenses of $2,207,000 and $3,454,000, respectively, related to the
Castle Services Agreement.



Partnership Agreement



Under the terms of a Partnership Agreement between Marina
Associates and TCI- II, Marina Associates was required to pay all costs incurred by TCI-II. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, Marina Associates paid no expenses on behalf of TCI-II.



Executive Agreement



In consideration of Trump terminating the Castle Services Agreement, THCR
determined, prior to the consummation of the TCH Notes Offering, to revisit Trumps compensation arrangements. On April 10, 2003, Trump, THCR and THCR Holdings entered into an Amended and Restated Executive Agreement (or the Amended Executive
Agreement). The Amended Executive Agreement amends and restates the Executive Agreement and is effective as of January 1, 2003. The Amended Executive Agreement was amended on September 17, 2003 to add Trump AC as a party. Pursuant to the Amended
Executive Agreement, Trump has agreed to act as President and Chief Executive Officer of THCR and its subsidiaries, if requested. THCR has agreed to nominate Trump to serve as a director of THCR and, if elected, to appoint him as its Chairman. The
initial term of the Amended Executive Agreement is three years and, thereafter, it is automatically extended so that the remaining term on any date is always three years, until such time during such rolling term that either party gives written
notice to the other of its election not to continue extending such term, in which case the term shall end three years from the date of which such notice is given. THCR can terminate the Amended Executive Agreement if Trump fails to maintain various
material casino gaming licenses and authorizations and the loss of such licenses has a material adverse effect on THCR and its subsidiaries.



Under the Amended Executive Agreement, Trumps annual base salary is $1,500,000 per year, beginning January 1, 2003. In addition, from and after
January 1, 2003, Trump will be paid additional fixed compensation of $1,500,000 per year if THCR achieves consolidated EBITDA (as defined) or $270,000,000 in any year and incentive compensation equal to 5.0% of THCRs consolidated EBITDA in
excess of $270,000,000. The term Consolidated EBITDA means, with respect to THCR and its consolidated subsidiaries, for any period, an amount equal to the sum of (i) the net income (or loss) of THCR and its consolidated subsidiaries for
such period determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, excluding any extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring gains or losses, plus (ii) all amounts deducted in computing such net income (or loss) in
respect of interest (including the imputed interest portions of rentals under capitalized leases), depreciation, amortization and taxes based upon or measured by income, plus (iii) other non-cash charges arising from market value adjustments and
adjustments pertaining to contributions of deposits in each case in respect of CRDA Bonds. Additional fixed compensation and incentive compensation for a given year shall not be deducted in determining net income of THCR for such year. For the year
ended December 31, 2003, Trump received a fee of $1,500,000 plus reimbursement for expenses of $367,159.

Trump 29 Development Agreement



THCR Development, a wholly owned subsidiary of THCR Holdings, entered into a development and construction agreement
(Development Agreement) with the Tribe dated April 27, 2000. Pursuant to the terms of the Development Agreement as amended on March 28, 2002, THCR Development shall receive a development and construction fee from the Tribe in the amount
of $2,460,000 related to services provided in connection with the construction of certain facilities at Trump 29. Upon receipt of the payment of this fee by THCR Development (which had not occurred as of December 31, 2003), THCR Management shall
become the guarantor of certain indebtedness of the Tribe in an amount equal to the amount of the development fee received by THCR Development.



Riviera Holdings Corporation Option



On July 1, 2002, consistent with the Contribution Agreement, dated June 12, 1995, between Trump and THCR Holdings, Trump
purchased 350,000 shares of Riviera Holdings Corporation (Riviera). On July 10, 2002, Trump granted THCR Holdings, at no cost, an option (the Option) to purchase his 350,000 shares of Rivieras common stock until December 31, 2003
at an exercise price equal to the greater of (i) Trumps cost of acquiring shares ($2,275,000 plus incurred brokerage fees and commissions) or (ii) the fair market value of the shares based upon the 20 trading day average closing price of
Rivieras common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange preceding the exercise of the Option.



On December 26, 2002, Trump purchased an additional 8,000 shares of Rivieras common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $37,970, net of
brokerage commissions. Trump granted, at no cost, THCR Holdings an option (the Additional Option) to purchase the 8,000 shares on the same terms as the Option.



On December 18, 2003, Trump and THCR Holdings amended the Option and the Additional Option to extend the expiration date of the options from December
31, 2003 through December 31, 2004.



|(8) | Stock Incentive Plan
|--- | --------------------



In connection with the June 1995 Offerings, the Board of Directors of THCR (the Board of Directors) adopted the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan (the
1995 Stock Plan). Pursuant to the 1995 Stock Plan, directors, employees and consultants of THCR and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates who have been selected as participants are eligible to receive awards of various forms of
equity-based incentive compensation, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock bonuses, restricted stock awards, performance units and phantom stock, and awards consisting of combinations of such incentives. The 1995 Stock Plan is
administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors (the Stock Incentive Plan Committee).



Options granted under the 1995 Stock Plan may be incentive stock options (ISOs), within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), or nonqualified stock options (NQSOs). The vesting, exercisability and exercise price of the options are determined by the Stock Incentive Plan Committee when the options are granted,
subject to a minimum price, in the case of ISOs, of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the 1995 Stock Plan) of THCR Common Stock on the date of the grant and a minimum price, in the case of NQSOs, of the par value of the THCR Common Stock.



The 1995 Stock Plan permits the Stock Incentive Plan Committee
to grant stock appreciation rights (SARs) either alone or in connection with an option. A SAR granted as an alternative or a supplement to a related stock option will entitle its holder to be paid an amount equal to the fair market value
of THCR Common Stock subject to the SAR on the date of exercise of the SAR, less the exercise price of the related stock option or such other price as the Stock Incentive Plan Committee may determine at the time of the grant of the SAR (which may
not be less than the lowest price which the Stock Incentive Plan Committee may determine under the 1995 Stock Plan for such stock option).



The 1995 Stock Plan also provides that phantom stock and performance unit awards may be settled in cash, at the discretion of the Stock Incentive Plan
Committee and if indicated by the applicable award agreement, on each date on which the shares of THCR Common Stock covered by the awards would otherwise have been delivered or become restricted, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the

|---- | -----------------------------



On April 27, 2000, as amended on March 28, 2002, THCR Management entered into the Trump 29 Management Agreement with the Tribe. On April 15, 2002, the
Trump 29 Management Agreement was approved by the National Indian Gaming Commission ( the NIGC), and on April 16, 2002, THCR Management commenced operating Trump 29, a casino owned by the Tribe through its sole ownership of Twenty-Nine
Palms, pursuant to the Trump 29 Management Agreement.



The
Trump 29 Management Agreement provides that THCR Management will manage and direct all business and affairs in connection with the day-to-day operation, management and maintenance (the Management Services) of the Tribes recently
renovated and expanded casino renamed Trump 29 Casino, which opened on April 2, 2002. The term of the Trump 29 Management Agreement is for five years and expires during April 2007. Commencing in April 2005, an affiliate of the Tribe has the option
of buying-out THCR

Management from the Trump 29 Management Agreement for an early termination fee as defined in the Trump 29 Management Agreement. Pursuant to the Trump 29
Management Agreement, in consideration for the Management Services, THCR Management receives an annual fee based on a percentage of Net Revenues (as defined in the Trump 29 Management Agreement) for each year of the term (the Management
Fee). Subject to the rights of the Tribes lenders and payment of certain priority amounts under the Trump 29 Management Agreement, the management fee is payable monthly in amounts equal to the accrued management fee for the preceding
month plus any accrued, unpaid amounts. Management fee revenue was $2,710,000 and $3,930,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively. To assist the Tribe in the renovation of Trump 29 , THCR Development entered into the
Development Agreement with the Tribe. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, THCR Development and the Twenty-Nine Palms constructed, furnished and equipped a gaming resort on the Tribes existing 75,000 square-foot casino. This construction was
completed during 2002 with an additional wing including a casino floor and certain dining and entertainment facilities.



To enable the Tribe to complete the construction and renovation of the Tribes casino, THCR Management agreed to act as a participant in the
Tribes construction loan (the Tribe Construction Loan) committing to provide the Tribe with up to $15,800,000 of the $58,000,000 total financing for the project. The Tribe Construction Loan bore interest at the prime rate (as
defined) plus 1% and matured in August 2007. On November 2, 2001, THCR Management entered into a loan agreement with the Trust Company of the West and certain affiliates thereof (the TCW Lenders), pursuant to which the TCW Lenders agreed
to loan up to $18,800,000 to THCR Management to enable THCR Management to fund its participation in the Tribe Construction Loan and to pay related expenses (the Management Loan).



On November 2, 2001, $11,000,000 of the $18,800,000 commitment under the
Management Loan was advanced to THCR Management, of which approximately $8,300,000 was escrowed to fund the participation of THCR Management in the Tribe Construction Loan, and approximately $2,700,000 was allocated to pay fees, expenses and to make
required escrow deposits in connection with the Management Loan. During 2002, additional lender participants were added to the lending group funding the Tribe Construction Loan and consequently, THCR Managements participation in the Tribe
Construction Loan was reduced from $15,800,000 to $8,300,000. As of December 31, 2001, $3,535,000 of the $8,300,000 had been funded to the Tribe.



During 2002, THCR Management funded an additional $3,962,000 out of the escrow account to the Tribe in connection with the Tribe Construction Loan. On
September 12, 2002, THCR Management assigned its interest in the Tribes construction loan to a group of unrelated third-party lenders. The proceeds of such assignment were used by THCR Management, together with the proceeds of a new $2,200,000
loan described below, to satisfy THCR Managements outstanding indebtedness on the Management Loan. In connection with the repayment of the Management Loan, THCR Management wrote-off approximately $1,700,000 of unamortized deferred financing
costs associated with the Management Loan. The write-off of this amount is included in interest expense in the accompanying statement of operations.



On September 12, 2002, THCR Management entered into a $2,200,000 loan agreement with First National Bank (FNB Loan). In connection with the
TCH Notes Offering, the outstanding principal of $173,000 was repaid with proceeds at closing.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003



On July 3, 2002, the State of New Jersey passed the New Jersey Business Tax Reform Act (the
Act). This Act, among other things, requires the suspension of the use of the New Jersey NOL carryforwards for two years and the introduction of a new alternative minimum assessment amount under the New Jersey corporate business tax based on
either gross receipts or gross profits, as defined. The Act is retroactive to January 1, 2002. As a result of the change in the tax law, the Company recorded a charge to tax expense of $3,718,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, which
represents the cumulative tax due from January 1, 2002 to September 30, 2002. This charge was recorded beginning in the period in which the tax law was passed (third quarter) pursuant to the accounting literature in FASB Statement Number 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes.



During the fourth quarter
of 2002, the Company agreed to donate CRDA funds in return for the use of other CRDA funds for a specific project. As a result of this donation, the Company recorded a charge to operations of $9,602,000 during the fourth quarter.



During the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company recorded a charge to
operations of approximately $6,300,000 as a result of property tax reassessments at the Companys Indiana facilities.



|(13) | Subsequent Event
|---- | ----------------



On February 12, 2004, the Company announced that it has entered into an exclusivity agreement with DLJ Merchant Banking Partners III, L.P.
(DLJMB), an affiliate of Credit Suisse First Boston (CSFB), in connection with a proposed $400 million equity investment by DLJMB to sponsor a comprehensive recapitalization of THCR. Consummation of such recapitalization is
subject to a variety of conditions, as discussed below. DLJMBs proposed investment will be in the form of THCRs Common Stock and limited partnership units of THCR Holdings will, if consummated, result in a substantial deleveraging of
THCRs balance sheet. DLJMB would also become the majority shareholder of THCR, with Donald J. Trump continuing as the Chairman of THCRs Board of Directors and a significant equity holder. The Potential Recapitalization, if consummated,
is anticipated to, among other things, facilitate a large scale expansion of THCRs current properties. In connection with the Potential Recapitalization, THCR also intends to change its name to Trump International Corporation.



DLJMBs investment is contingent upon a number of factors, including (i)
obtaining approvals from the casino gaming regulatory authorities, (ii) a restructuring of the TAC Notes ($1.3 billion outstanding at December 31, 2003) and the TCH Notes (approximately $491,842,000 outstanding at December 31, 2003) at a discount to
the face amount of such notes, and (iii) agreeing upon a purchase price for THCRs Common Stock and THCR Holdings limited partnership units with DLJMB.



Although the Company has had extensive discussions with DLJMB regarding the potential transaction, it has not entered into
any definitive agreements with DLJMB or any other parties, including note holders, concerning the proposed DLJMB transaction or any other recapitalization (other than the exclusivity agreement with DLJMB and an agreement to pay DLJMB expenses in
certain circumstances and a substantial fee if certain transactions occur within specified periods and DLJMB does not participate). There is no assurance that the terms of a definitive agreement concerning DLJMBs proposed investment in THCR
will be reached between THCR and DLJMB, that THCRs debt will be restructured, or that any potential recapitalization will be consummated. Furthermore, the impact of the proposed recapitalization on existing security holders is uncertain. As
noted above, the Potential Recapitalization is conditioned upon the holders of the TAC Notes and the TCH Notes agreeing to a reduction in the face amount of their notes.
