                        Report of Independent Accountants
                        ---------------------------------


To the Stockholder of Waterford Gaming Finance Corp.:

We have reviewed the  accompanying  condensed  balance sheet of Waterford Gaming
Finance Corp.  (the  "Company") as of June 30, 2000,  and the related  condensed
statements of operations and retained earnings (deficit)for the three months and
sixth months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 and the related  condensed  statements
of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.  These  financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants.  A review  of  interim  financial
information consists principally of applying analytical  procedures to financial
data and making  inquiries of persons  responsible  for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with auditing  standards  generally accepted in the United States, the objective
of which is the  expression of an opinion  regarding  the  financial  statements
taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material  modifications that should
be made to the accompanying  condensed interim financial  statements for them to
be in conformity with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted in the United
States.

We previously  audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States, the balance sheet as of December 31, 1999, and the related
statements of operations and retained  earnings  (deficit) and of cash flows for
the year then ended (not  presented  herein);  and in our report  dated March 9,
2000, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.  In our
opinion,  the information set forth in the accompanying  condensed balance sheet
as of December 31, 1999, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation
to the balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   (Unaudited)
                                   ----------


1.  Basis of Presentation:

The  unaudited  condensed  interim  financial  statements  have been prepared in
accordance with the policies  described in Waterford Gaming Finance Corp.'s (the
"Company") 1999 audited  financial  statements and should be read in conjunction
with the Company's 1999 audited financial statements within the Company's Annual
Report for the fiscal  year ended  December  31, 1999 on Form 10-K as filed with
the Securities and Exchange  Commission (the "Commission") File No. 333-17795-01
on March 27, 2000. The condensed  balance sheet at December 31, 1999,  contained
herein, was derived from audited financial statements,  but does not include all
disclosures  contained  in the Form  10-K and  required  by  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

The  unaudited  condensed  interim  financial   statements  include  normal  and
recurring  adjustments  which,  are in the opinion of  management,  necessary to
present a fair  statement  of financial  position as of June 30,  2000,  and the
results of operations and retained  earnings  (deficit) for the three months and
six months  ended June 30, 2000 and of cash flows for the six months  ended June
30, 2000. Results of operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waterford Gaming, L.L.C. ("Gaming").
Effective as of May 15, 1997,  the Company  functioned  as a co- issuer with its
parent,  Gaming,  to issue $65 Million  12-3/4%  senior notes  payable (the "$65
Million  Senior  Notes").  The $65 Million Senior Notes were redeemed as part of
the Company's  and Gaming's $125 Million  9-1/2% senior notes (the "$125 Million
Senior Notes") offering which was completed on March 17, 1999.


2.   $125 Million 9-1/2% Senior Notes

On March 17, 1999,  the Company and Gaming,  issued $125 Million  Senior  Notes,
which mature March 15, 2010.  Payment of the  principal of, and interest on, the

existing and future secured debts.

Interest is payable  semi-annually  in arrears on March 15 and September 15 at a
rate of 9-1/2% per annum and commenced on September 15, 1999.

The  principal  amount of the $125 Million  Senior Notes is payable on March 15,
2010.  The Company and Gaming may elect to redeem the $125 Million  Senior Notes
at any  time on or  after  March  15,  2004 at a  redemption  price  equal  to a
percentage  (105.182% after March 14, 2004 and declining to 104.318% after March
14, 2005, 103.455% after March 14, 2006, 102.591% after March 14, 2007, 101.727%
after March 14, 2008,  100.864% after March 14, 2009 and to 100% after March 14,
2010) of the principal  amount thereof plus accrued  interest.  The $125 Million
Senior  Notes  provide  that  upon the  occurrence  of a Change of  Control  (as
defined),  the holders thereof will have the option to require the redemption of
the  $125  Million  Senior  Notes  at a  redemption  price  equal to 101% of the
principal amount thereof plus accrued interest.

If the Company and Gaming have any Company  Excess Cash,  as defined,  they must
redeem the $125  Million  Senior Notes (on a  semi-annual  basis on March 15 and
September 15) equal to a percentage (109.500% after March 15, 1999 and declining
to 108.636% after March 14, 2000,  107.773% after March 14, 2001, 106.909% after
March 14, 2002,  106.045%  after March 14, 2003,  105.182% after March 14, 2004,
104.318%  after March 14, 2005,  103.455%  after March 14, 2006,  102.591% after
March 14, 2007, 101.727% after March 14, 2008, 100.864% after March 14, 2009 and
to 100% after  March 14,  2010).  On August 1, 1999 the  Company  and Gaming had
Company Excess Cash, as defined,  available for mandatory redemption of the $125
Million  Senior Notes  totaling  approximately  $8,983,000,  and  accordingly on
September  15, 1999 the Company and Gaming made a mandatory  redemption  of $125
Million  Senior Notes in the principal  amount of  $2,841,000 at the  redemption
price of 109.50%.  On February 1, 2000 the Company and Gaming had Company Excess
Cash, as defined,  available for mandatory redemption of the $125 Million Senior
Notes totaling  approximately  $8,276,000 and accordingly the Company and Gaming
made a mandatory redemption of $125 Million Senior Notes in the principal amount
of $2,277,000 at the  redemption  price of 108.636% on March 15, 2000. On August
1, 2000 the Company and Gaming had Company  Excess Cash,  as defined,  available
for mandatory redemption of the $125 Million Senior Notes, totaling aproximately
$5,902,000,  and  accordingly  on September 15, 2000 the Company and Gaming will
make a mandatory redemption of $125 Million Senior Notes in the principal amount
of $191,000 at the  redemption  price of  108.636%.  In some  circumstances,  if
either Gaming or its partner in Trading Cove  Associates  ("TCA")  exercises the
option to buy or sell partnership  interests in TCA, the Company and Gaming must
redeem the $125 Million Senior Notes.

The  indenture  relating  to the $125  Million  Senior  Notes (the  "Indenture")
contains certain  affirmative and negative  covenants  customarily  contained in
agreements of this type, including without limitation,  covenants that restrict,
subject to specified exceptions the Company's and Gaming's ability to (i) borrow
money,  (ii) pay dividends on stock or make certain other  restricted  payments,
(iii) use assets as security in other transactions,  (iv) make investments,  (v)
sell other assets or merge with other  companies and (vi) engage in any business
except as currently  conducted or contemplated or amend their  relationship with
TCA.  The  Indenture  also  provides  for  customary  events of default  and the
establishment  of a  restricted  investment  fund  with a trustee  for  interest
reserves.

Item 1  -- Legal Proceedings:

On January 6, 1998, Leisure Resort Technology,  Inc.  ("Leisure") and defendants
Waterford Gaming,  L.L.C., Trading Cove Associates,  LMW Investments,  Inc., and
Slavik Suites,  Inc.  settled a prior lawsuit brought by Leisure.  In connection
with this  settlement,  Leisure and Trading Cove Associates,  Waterford  Gaming,
L.L.C., LMW Investments, Inc., and Slavik Suites, Inc. entered into a settlement
and release  agreement.  Pursuant  to this  settlement  and  release  agreement,
Waterford Gaming,  L.L.C.  bought out Leisure's  beneficial  interest in Trading
Cove Associates.

By complaint dated January 7, 2000, as amended February 4, 2000, Leisure filed a
four count complaint naming as defendants Waterford Gaming, L.L.C., Trading Cove
Associates, LMW Investments, Inc., Slavik Suites, Inc., Waterford Group, L.L.C.,
Len Wolman  and Mark  Wolman  (collectively,  the  "Defendants").  The matter is
pending in the Judicial  District of Middlesex at Middletown,  Connecticut.  The
suit alleges breach of fiduciary duties, fraudulent non-disclosure, violation of
Connecticut  Statutes  Section  42-110a,  et  seq.,  and  unjust  enrichment  in
connection  with the  negotiation by certain of the Defendants of the settlement
and release agreement. The suit seeks unspecified legal and equitable damages. A
Motion to Strike and a Motion for Summary  Judgement,  each with  respect to all
claims,  have been filed on behalf of all of the Defendants.  The Defendants are
awaiting a ruling on the Motion to Strike and the Motion for  Summary  Judgement
which were argued on behalf of all Defendants on June 19, 2000.

Waterford Gaming,  L.L.C.  believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends
to  vigorously  contest  the claims in this  action and to assert all  available
defenses.  At the present time, Waterford Gaming, L.L.C. is unable to express an
opinion on the  likelihood of an  unfavorable  outcome or to give an estimate of
the amount or range of potential loss to Waterford Gaming, L.L.C. as a result of
this  litigation  due to the  disputed  issues of law and/or  facts on which the
outcome of this litigation depends and due to the infancy of both the action and
discovery in the action.
