**RIVER ROCK ENTERTAINMENT AUTHORITY****(A Governmental Instrumentality of the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians)**

**NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**1.**      **DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS**

     River Rock Entertainment Authority (the “Authority”) is a governmental instrumentality of the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians (the “Tribe”), a federally recognized Indian tribe. River Rock Casino (the “Casino”) is a governmental development project of the Authority. The Casino offers Class III gaming (as defined by the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act) on tribal land located in Geyserville, California. The legal authority for slot machines and table games is provided by the Tribe’s gaming compact with the State of California (the “Compact”), which was entered into in September 1999 and became effective upon approval by the Secretary of Interior on May 5,2000.  The compact expires on December 31, 2020.

     The Tribe opened a portion of the Casino, while construction was being completed, on September 14, 2002. Following completion of construction, the Casino was fully opened on April 1, 2003.

     The Authority was formed as an unincorporated instrumentality of the Tribe on November 5, 2003 pursuant to a reorganization whereby the Tribe’s gaming business became owned and operated by the Authority. This reorganization was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control. Accordingly, after the reorganization, the assets and liabilities of the casino operating property were presented by the Authority on a historical-cost basis.

     The Authority operates as a separate, wholly owned operating unit of the Tribe and is not a separate legal entity. These financial statements reflect the financial position and activity of only the Authority and do not purport to represent the financial position and activity of the Tribe. 

     Income before distributions to Tribe was $4,565,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 and $3,597,548 for the three-months ended March 31, 2004. A fund deficit of $45,136,242 exists as of March 31, 2005. The Authority’s current assets exceeded its current liabilities by $2,351,295. On November 7, 2003, the Authority issued $200,000,000 in 93⁄4% Senior Notes, due 2011 (the “Notes”), and used a portion of the proceeds to reduce current payables, accruals and debt. The Authority’s ability to fund future debt service payments is dependent upon the success of the Casino. Management believes that the Casino will attract sufficient patronage levels and continue to produce sufficient cash flow torepay its indebtedness. On December 29, 2004, the Authority reached its substantial completion of the construction of the enhanced parking structures. 

**2.**      **SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

     ***Accounting Standards***—The Authority prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles”). The financial statements presented are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting from the accounts and financial transactions of the Authority. Generally accepted accounting principles require the Authority to apply all applicable pronouncements of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”). The Authority is also required to follow Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statements and Interpretations, Accounting Principles Board Opinions andAccounting Research Bulletins issued on or before November 30, 1989, unless those pronouncements conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements.  The Authority is given the option whether to apply all FASB Statements and Interpretations issued after November 30, 1989, except for those that conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements. Accordingly, the Authority has elected to implement non conflicting FASB Statements and Interpretations issued after November 30, 1989.

     There are differences between financial statements prepared in accordance with GASB pronouncements and those prepared in accordance with FASB pronouncements. The statements of revenues, expenses and changes in fund deficit is a combined statement under GASB pronouncements, FASB pronouncements allow a statement of income or operations and a separate statement of owners’ or shareholders’ equity deficit, which is where distributions to owners would be presented under FASB pronouncements.  The amount shown as income before distributions to Tribe would not be different if the Authority followed all FASB pronouncements to determine net income and would be the most comparable amount to net income computed underFASB pronouncements. The Authority is a separate fund of the Tribe, a governmental entity, and as such there is no owners’ or shareholders’ equity deficit as traditionally represented under FASB pronouncements.  The most comparable measure of owners’ equity deficit is presented on the Authority’s balance sheet as fund deficit. 

     ***New Accounting Pronouncements***—In March 2003, GASB issued Statement No. 40, *Deposit and Investment Risk Disclosures—an amendment of GASB Statement No. 3*, which became effective for the Authority at January 1, 2005. This statement requires state and local governments to communicate key information about deposit and investment risks. The impact of adoption of this statement on the financial statements of the Authority did not have a material impact.

     In November 2003, GASB issued Statement No. 42, *Accounting and Financial Reporting for Impairment of Capital Assets and for Insurance Recoveries*, effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2004. This statement establishes accounting and financial reporting standards for impairment of capital assets. This statement also clarifies and establishes accounting requirements for insurance recoveries. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Authority.  

     ***Use of Estimates***—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     ***Cash and Cash Equivalents***—The Authority considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at date of purchase as cash equivalents. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value. Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash on deposit with banks and highly liquid investments. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) has insured $100,000 of the cash on deposit with the bank. The Authority believes that there is little risk of loss regarding the uninsured amounts of cash and cash equivalents on deposit with the bank.

     ***Inventories***—Inventories, consisting principally of gaming supplies and concession items, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.

     ***Restricted Cash***—Restricted cash consists of estimated construction expenses for three parking structures, related infrastructure improvements and construction contingencies. It also includes funds that are reserved for additional construction contingencies and the funds necessary to develop an approximately 18-acre parcel of land adjacent to the Tribe’s reservation, which is expected to be used primarily to build an additional access road to the Tribe’s reservation. These funds are held in escrow accounts which are restricted for authorized construction disbursements. These escrow accounts are invested in Certificates of Deposit, which generate interest on a monthly basis. The FDIC hasinsured $100,000 of this balance. The Authority believes that there is little risk of loss regarding the uninsured amounts of restricted cash held in the escrow account. Restricted cash was $10,303,704 and $16,201,721 at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.  As of March 31, 2005, restricted cash includes amounts available for construction of $5,625,091 and land development funds of $4,678,613.

     ***Property and Equipment***—Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

|   | Building and Improvements 10-39 years |
|--------|---------------------------------------|

|   | Furniture, fixtures and equipment 5-7 years |
|--------|---------------------------------------------|

     The Authority evaluates its property and equipment for impairment in accordance with the FASB’s Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, *Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets*. When events or circumstances indicate that an asset should be reviewed for impairment, the Authority compares the undiscounted cash flows derived from the asset or asset group to the net carrying value. If impairment is indicated, the impairment loss is measured by the amount in which the carrying value of the asset or asset group exceeds its fair value. Fair value is measured by comparable sales, solicited offers or discounted cash flow models.

     ***Capitalized Interest***—The interest cost associated with major development and construction projects is capitalized and included in the cost of the Authority. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project is substantially complete or development activity is suspended. Capitalized interest for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was $0 and $1,359,291, respectively. 

     ***Deposits and Other Assets***— As of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, deposits and other assets include $6,728,498 and $6,983,920 in unamortized loan costs related to the issuance of the Notes. Deferred loan costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related financial arrangement. 

     ***Accrued Liabilities***—Accrued liabilities consist of accrued interest, accrued payroll, accrued credit enhancement fee, capital leases payable and other accrued liabilities.

     ***Accrued Progressive Slot Jackpots***—Accrued progressive slot jackpots consist of estimates for prizes relating to various games that have accumulated jackpots. The Authority has recorded the cost of these anticipated payouts as a reduction of casino revenues, and the cost is included as a component of accrued liabilities.

     ***Accrued Slot Players Club***—In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-22, *Accounting for “Points” and Certain Other Time-Based or Volume-Based Sales Incentive Offers and Offers for Free Products or Services to be Delivered in the Future*, the Authority has recorded a liability related to prizes and cash incentives earned by the members of the players club. The Authority has recorded the cost of the estimated redemption of the liability related to prizes as an operating expense and the estimated redemption of the liability related to cash as promotional allowance in the accompanying statements of revenues, expenses and changes in fund deficit. 

     ***Casino Revenues***—In accordance with industry practice, the Authority recognizes as casino revenue the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference between gaming wins and losses. Casino revenues are net of accruals for anticipated payouts of progressive slot jackpots.

     ***Food, Beverage and Retail***—The Authority recognizes as food, beverage and retail revenues the proceeds from its food, beverage and gift shop sales. The Authority distributes beverages freely in the gaming area and such amounts are included as a component of promotional allowances.

     ***Other Revenues***—Other revenues are comprised of commissions on ATM, vending machine transactions and license revenues.

     ***Promotional Allowances***—The retail value of food and beverages provided to customers without charge is included in gross revenues and then deducted as promotional allowances. The redemption of cash incentives earned by the player’s club members is also recorded as promotional allowances.  The estimated costs of providing complimentary services are recorded as casino expenses.  The costs of such services for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 were $939,149 and $587,500, respectively. 

     ***Food and Beverage Costs***—Food and beverage costs include costs associated with food and beverage operations excluding amounts classified as casino expenses.

     ***Advertising Costs***—Advertising costs are expensed the first time advertising takes place. Advertising costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,081,442 and $862,739 for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. 

     ***Income Taxes***—As a governmental instrumentality of the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians, a federally recognized Indian tribe, the Authority is a nontaxable entity for purposes of federal and state income taxes. 

     ***Distributions to Tribe***—Distributions to Tribe are made up of a stated draw amount and permitted payments.  They are included in the statement of revenues, expenses and changes in fund deficit as distributions to Tribe. The Tribal draw was $500,000 per month for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The Authority also distributed $680,000 to the Tribe as part of reimbursement for construction costs incurred by the Tribe prior to the formation of the Authority. As of March 31, 2005, there is $1,960,000 remaining to be reimbursed to the Tribe for construction costs incurred prior to the formation of the Authority. The total distributions to the Tribe were $2,180,000 and $1,525,000 for thethree-months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.  

| **3.** | **CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES** |
|--------|-------------------------------------|

     The Authority’s operations are dependent on the continued licensing and qualification of the Authority by the Tribal Gaming Commission. Such licensing and qualification are reviewed periodically by the Tribal Gaming Commission and regulatory agencies of the State of California. The Authority believes that no events or circumstances have arisen that would have an adverse effect on the Casino’s ability to continue its licensing and qualification by the Tribal Gaming Commission or regulatory agencies of the State of California to operate the Authority. 

| **4.** | **RELATED PARTIES** |
|--------|---------------------|

     The Authority has been constructed on federal land beneficially owned by the Tribe. The Authority does not pay the Tribe for the use of the land. 

     Starting January 1, 2004, the Authority paid for various expenses for the following departments operated by the Tribe: Tribal Gaming Commission and surveillance, plant operations, human resources, purchasing and warehousing. On January 1, 2005, the Authority started to operate purchasing and warehousing but continued to pay for expenses for the other departments operated by the Tribe.  These departmental expenses include, but are not limited to, payroll and related expenses, legal and other operational expenses. Total amounts billed by the Tribe for these departments, excluding Tribal Gaming Commission and surveillance, were $524,838 and $661,051 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, andare recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses.  The Authority paid for various expenses for the Tribal Gaming Commission and surveillance in 2005 and 2004.  These expenses were $536,613 and $437,223 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and are presented in our Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Deficit as “Gaming commission expense”.

| **5.** | **DEVELOPMENT AND LOAN AGREEMENT** |
|--------|------------------------------------|

     The Tribe entered into a Development and Loan Agreement with Dry Creek Casino, LLC (“DCC”) on August 26, 2001, which has been amended from time to time (as amended, the “Development Agreement”). On November 7, 2003, the Authority refinanced $22,600,000 of the $32,600,000 principal amount of the development loan due to DCC under the Development Agreement. As of March 31, 2005, the outstanding debt related to the Development Agreement was fully repaid.

     In addition to its obligations to repay the loan and advances specified in the Development Agreement, in consideration of DCC’s providing credit enhancement and other services under the Development Agreement, the Tribe is obligated to pay DCC the Credit Enhancement Fee. The Credit Enhancement Fee is defined as 20% of the Authority’s net income before distributions to the Tribe plus depreciation and amortization plus annual interest on $25.0 million principal amount of the notes less revenues from sales of alcoholic beverages. The Credit Enhancement Fee is required to be paid monthly for a period of five years commencing on June 1, 2003. The Credit Enhancement Fee for the three months ended March 31,2005 and 2004 were $1,942,849 and $1,390,237, respectively.

     The Authority has the right to terminate the Development Agreement by exercising a buy-out option on or after June 1, 2006 (the “Buy-Out Option”). If exercised, the Authority is obligated to pay all amounts outstanding with respect to financing, including outstanding development advances and accrued interest plus an amount determined by multiplying the average monthly credit enhancement fee earned during the 12-month period immediately preceding the month the Buy-Out Option is exercised, by the number of months remaining in the five-year term (the “Remaining Term”). The buy-out fee is required to be paid in equal monthly installments of principal plus interest at the rate of 12% perannum, on the 15th day of each month over a period equal to the Remaining Term.

| **11.** | **LEGAL MATTERS** |
|---------|-------------------|

     ***Sonoma County Fire Marshal Inspection Case***

     On October 7, 2002, the Sonoma County Fire Chief filed an application in Sonoma County Superior Court for an inspection warrant to allow him to inspect the Tribe’s reservation, including the Casino. The Tribe removed the case to federal court. The Tribe had argued that there was no basis for the County Fire Chief to assert jurisdiction over the Tribe’s lands, which are owned in trust by the United States of America for the Tribe’s benefit, and are governed by tribal and federal law and the Compact.

     On December 9, 2004, the Court entered an order granting in part and denying in part the Tribe’s motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim and denying the County’s motion for summary judgment. The order reaffirmed the Court’s prior ruling that Public Law 280 does not authorize the County Fire Chief to inspect the Tribe’s reservation or Casino. On March 1, 2005, the Court issued an Order granting in part and denying in part the Tribe’s motion to dismiss for failure to join necessary and indispensable parties, holding that United States of America is an indispensable party as to the road that provides ingress and egress to the Tribe’s reservation from the public highway. OnApril 29, 2005, the Court entered its final order granting the Tribe’s motion for summary judgment on the remaining issue of whether exceptional circumstances existed that supported the issuance of an inspection warrant for the Tribe’s casino, and entered judgment on the entire action in the Tribe’s favor. 

     We are involved in other litigation and disputes from time to time in the ordinary course of business with vendors and patrons. We believe that the aggregate liability, if any, arising from such litigation or disputes will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. 

| **12.** | **COMPACT REVENUE SHARING TRUST FUND** |
|---------|----------------------------------------|

     The Compact requires the Authority to pay a quarterly fee to the revenue sharing trust fund, based on the number of licensed gaming devices operated by the Tribe. Revenue sharing trust fund fees assessed were $333,750 and $333,750 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

| **13.** | **COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** |
|---------|-----------------------------------|

     The Authority is an unincorporated instrumentality of the Tribe formed pursuant to a recently adopted law of the Tribe.  While the Authority is not a separate corporation or other legal entity distinct from the Tribe, this tribal law allows the Authority to own and operate its business.  This tribal law also provides that the Authority’s obligations and other liabilities are not those of the Tribe and that the obligations and liabilities of the Tribe are not the Authority’s.  This law is untested and generally has no direct counterpart in other areas of the law.  If this law should prove to be ineffective at limiting the Authority’s liability, the Authority’s business and assets could becomesubject to claims asserted against the Tribe or its assets.  Similarly, the Authority would be liable for such claims if the Tribe waived its sovereign immunity to an extent that allowed enforcement of such claims against the Authority’s business or assets.

**ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

     The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of this report.  

**Overview**

          *General*

     We have historically operated as a separate wholly-owned operating property of the Tribe. We were formed as an unincorporated instrumentality of the Tribe to own and operate the River Rock Casino. Upon the issuance of our $200.0 million senior notes due 2011 on November 7, 2003 (the “Notes”), the Tribe reorganized so that its gaming business became owned and operated by us. This reorganization was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 141 “Business Combinations,” the assets and liabilities of the Casino are presented by us on a historical cost basis.

     We    offer Class III slot and video poker gaming machines, house banked table    games (including blackjack, three card poker, Pai Gow poker and mini-baccarat),    comprehensive food and beverage offerings, and goods for sale in our gift    shop. 

     Our business has increased since we commenced operations on September 14, 2002, primarily due to increases in the number of gaming positions as we opened additional portions of our facility.  On April 1, 2003, we opened our food and beverage facilities and as of June 18, 2003, we had reached full operations with 1600 slot machines.  The history of our operations is as follows:

|  | • | On September 14, 2002, we commenced operations with approximately 66 gaming devices located in a portion of our gaming facility. |
|--|--------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|  |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
|--|--------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | • | Between September 14, 2002 and March 31, 2003, we periodically installed and removed a number of our gaming devices in preparation for the opening of our entire gaming facility. During such period, the number of gaming devices operated increased to 242. |

|  |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
|--|--------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | • | On April 1, 2003, we opened the remainder of our 62,000 square-foot gaming facility, including our food and beverage facilities, our Player’s Club, 16 table games and an additional 302 gaming devices. |

|  |   |                                                                                                                                 |
|--|--------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | • | Between April 1, 2003 and June 18, 2003, we gradually increased the number of gaming devices from 544 to our current total of 1,600. |

|  |   |                                                                                            |
|--|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | • | On February 3, 2005, we increased the number of table games from 16 to our current total of 24. |

     On November 7, 2003, we issued the Notes. A portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes was used to fund our expansion project, which includes three new parking structures and infrastructure improvement, to repay various debts and accrued expenses of the Tribe, as well as to increase our cash on hand. The balance of the net proceeds was used to fund a land purchase by the Tribe and settle litigation of the Tribe. The Notes are secured by a first priority pledge of our revenues and substantially all of our existing and future tangible and intangible personal property. 

     At the beginning of 2003, we started our infrastructure projects, including the excavation of a hillside and the construction of retaining walls.  In April 2003, we began the design process for the three new  parking structures.  The parking structures portion of the expansion project was completed in two phases and our existing gaming facility remained open during construction.  On October 29, 2004, we obtained a temporary certificate of occupancy to open the entire first parking for self and valet parking.  On December 1, 2004, we received a certificate of substantial completion on the first parking structure.  The second phase, which included our second and third new parking structures with approximately 445 andapproximately 470 spaces, respectively, opened on December 29, 2004.  As of March 31, 2005, we have available parking spaces to accommodate a total of approximately 1,735 customer parked vehicles and 2,100 vehicles when operated by a valet service.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

     We have identified the following critical accounting policies and estimates that affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that we make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate those estimates, including those related to asset impairment, accruals for our promotional slot club, compensation and related benefits, revenue recognition, allowance fordoubtful accounts, contingencies and litigation. These estimates are based on the information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:

|  | • | *Casino Revenues*— In accordance with industry practice, Casino revenue is recognized as the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference between gaming wins and losses. Casino revenues are net of accruals for anticipated payouts of progressive slot jackpots. |
|--|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|  |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |
|--|--------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | • | *Capitalized Interest*— The interest cost associated with major development and construction projects is capitalized and included in the cost of our Casino. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project is substantially complete or development activity is suspended. |

|  |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
|--|--------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | • | *Property and Equipment*— Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: |

|                              |        |
|-----------------------------------|-------------|
| Buildings and improvements        | 10-39 years |
| Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 5-7 years   |

|   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |
|--------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|   | We evaluate our property and equipment for impairment in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. When events or circumstances indicate that an asset should be reviewed for impairment, we compare the undiscounted cash flow derived from the asset or asset group to the net carrying value. If an impairment is indicated, the impairment loss is measured by the amount in which the carrying value of the asset or asset group exceeds its fair value. Fair value is measured by comparable sales, solicited offers or discounted cash flow models. |

|        |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
|--------|--------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|        | • | *Accrued Progressive Slot Jackpots*— Accrued progressive slot jackpots consist of estimates for prizes relating to various games that have accumulated jackpots. We have recorded the cost of these anticipated payouts as a reduction of Casino revenues, and the cost is included as a component of accrued liabilities. |
|   |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |

|        | • | *Accrued Slot Players Club*— In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-22, Accounting for “Points” and Certain Other Time-Based or Volume-Based Sales Incentive Offers and Offers for Free Products or Services to be Delivered in the Future, we have recorded a liability related to prizes and cash incentives earned by the members of our Players’ Club and have adjusted the liability for the estimated future breakage. We have recorded the cost of the estimated redemption of the liability related to prizes as an operating expense and the estimated redemption of the liability related to cash as promotional allowance in the accompanying statements of revenues, expenses and changes in fund deficit. |

|  | • | *Contingencies —*We assess our exposures to loss contingencies, including legal matters, and provide for an exposure if it is judged to be probable and estimable. If the actual loss from a contingency differs from management’s estimate, operating results could be impacted. As of March 31, 2005, we have determined that no accruals for claims and legal actions are required.  If circumstances surrounding claims and legal actions change, the addition of accruals for such items in future periods may be required, which accruals may be material. |

|  | • | *Accounting Standards*— There are differences between financial statements prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) pronouncements and those prepared in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) pronouncements. The statement of revenues, expenses, and fund deficit is a combined statement under GASB pronouncements. FASB pronouncements allow a statement of income or operations and a statement of owners’ or shareholders’ deficit, which is where distributions to owners would be presented under FASB pronouncements. The amount shown on our statement of revenues, expenses and fund deficit as net income before tribal distributions would not be different if we followedall FASB pronouncements to determine net income and would be the most comparable amount to net income computed under FASB pronouncements. We are an unincorporated instrumentality created by tribal law and accounted for as a separate fund of the Tribe; as such there is no owners’ or shareholders’ (deficit) equity as traditionally represented under FASB pronouncements. The most comparable measure of owners’ (deficit) equity presented on our balance sheet would be fund (deficit) equity. |

**Results of Operations**

**Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004**

     *Net Revenues*. Our net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased by $7.1 million to $32.7 million from $25.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  The increase is attributed to more frequent and longer visits from guests due to our increased parking capacity and our expanded bus program.  Approximately 97.1% of our net revenues were from our gaming activities in the first quarter of 2005.  We generated $28.3 million from slot machines and $3.4 million from table games for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to $22.0 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  Our win per slot machine per day was $200 in the first quarter of 2005 whichincreased from $151 in the first quarter of 2004.  The increase is a result of the significant increase in the number of patrons from drive ups and the expansion of our bus program.

     We generated $1.6 million and $1.2 million in food, beverage and retail sales for three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.  The increase is a result of increased number of patrons. The retail value of our food and beverage provided to customers without charge is included in gross revenues and then deducted as promotional allowances.  Such allowances were $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

     *Operating expenses.* Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005 were $22.8 million, or 69.7% of net revenues, compared to $18.0 million, or 70.4% of net revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  The increase in operating expenses of $4.8 million is attributable to increased gaming activities.  However, our operating costs as a percentage of net revenues decreased slightly.  Such decrease is due to our ability to increase labor efficiency and leverage certain fixed costs over increased revenues. 

     Casino expense includes costs associated with our gaming operations only.  Casino expense also includes an allocation of food, beverage and retail expense related to the costs of complimentary activities.  Casino expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased to $5.4 million, or 16.9% of Casino revenues, from $4.4 million, or 17.9% of Casino revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  The increase of the Casino expense is attributable to the increased operational activities as we increased the parking spaces and our expanded bus programs.  Our Casino expense as a percentage of Casino revenue decreased slightly due to increased labor efficiencies, and our ability to leverage certain fixed Casinocosts over increased Casino revenues.

     Food, beverage and retail expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $1.4 million, or 92.4% of food, beverage and retail revenue, compared to $1.4 million, or 111.0% of food and beverage revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  Such decrease in the expense ratio is attributable to our ability to significantly increase labor efficiency and lower food costs in our food and beverage operations.

     Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased by $2.0 million to $10.5 million, or 32.2% of net revenues, from $8.5 million, or 33.4% of net revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  The increase in selling, general and administrative expense is mainly attributable to increased marketing effort and facility costs.  Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net revenues decreased in the first quarter of 2005 compared to the first quarter of 2004.  Such decrease is mainly due to our ability to increase labor efficiency and leverage certain fixed costs over increased revenues. 

     Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $2.6 million compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  Depreciation expense was computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the property, plant and equipment.  The increase in depreciation expenses is due to having a full quarter of depreciation for the three parking structures.

      We began paying Credit Enhancement Fee in June 2003.  The Credit Enhancement Fee was $1.9 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.  The increase is attributable to our greater net income.

     Gaming commission expense was $0.5 million compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.  The gaming commission expense consists of our reimbursement of the Tribal Gaming Commission’s costs in connection with the inspection of all gaming operations within the Tribe’s reservation boundaries, enforcement of all provisions of the tribal gaming ordinance, investigation of all allegations of violations of the tribal gaming ordinance, conducting or arranging for background investigations of all applicants for tribal gaming licenses, issuing gaming licenses in accordance with the tribal gaming ordinance and the Compact, the payment of the salaries of the gaming commissioners and otheremployees of the Tribal Gaming Commission, and the payment of our auditor’s fees.  

     Compact    revenue sharing trust fund (“RSTF”) expense remained the same at    $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. Compact    revenue sharing trust fund includes payments associated with operating 1600    gaming devices. These fees became payable by the Tribe when we commenced    operations in September 2002 and are based on the number of our gaming device    licenses. Compact revenue sharing trust fund expense includes payments to    the RSTF as required by our Compact with the State of California. The Tribe    is obligated to remit certain fees to the California Gambling Control Commission    (“CGCC”) on a quarterly basis for inclusion in the RSTF.  The RSTF    is for the benefit of tribes that have no or limited gaming. We pay these    fees on behalf of the Tribe.

     *Income from operations.* Income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $9.9 million, or 30.3% of net revenues, compared to $7.6 million or 29.6% of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  Our increased income from operations is attributable to our increased gaming revenues as a result of improved parking capacity and decreased operating costs margins.

     *Other expense, net.* Other expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased to $5.3 million, or 16.3% of net revenues from $4.0 million, or 15.5% of net revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Other expense, net included $5.3 million of interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to $4.1 million of interest expense (net of capitalized interest of $1.4 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  

     *Income before distributions to Tribe.* Income before distributions to Tribe for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased by $1.0 million to $4.6 million, or 14.0% of net revenues, from $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

     Since our inception, we have funded our capital expenditures and working capital requirements primarily through debt financing, gaming equipment supplier financing, other financing and operating cash flow.

     Construction of our Casino and infrastructure improvements commenced on April 1, 2002. The first portion of our gaming facility was completed in September 2002. As of March 31, 2005, we had spent approximately $68.5 million on the planning, development and construction of our gaming facility, infrastructure and furniture, fixtures and equipment excluding the expansion project. We financed the development with borrowings and development advances, which funded the development of our site and costs associated with construction.  

     We originally expected completion of our expansion project to cost $64.6 million, which we planned to fund with $61.4 million from the net proceeds of the offering of the Notes and $3.2 million from an advance from the Tribe.  From the proceeds from the offering of the Notes, we had also placed an additional $10.0 million in a construction escrow account to be available to fund additional construction contingencies.  The original expansion budget included $35.4 million for the three parking structures, $24.1 million for infrastructure improvements and a $5.1 million construction contingency.

     During the spring of 2004, we revised our budget for the expansion project to approximately $73.7 million, of which we have spent $73.2 million as of March 31, 2005.  The remaining portion of the project is expected to be funded through our restricted cash and cash from operations.  Our final budget estimate is comprised of $39.4 million for the three parking structures, which is $0.5 million more than our original budget, and $34.3 million for infrastructure improvements, which is $8.6 million more than our original estimate.  The budget for the expansion project was greater than original estimates because in an effort to expedite construction, we commenced construction before all design documents were finalized,which resulted in inefficiencies and modifications that caused actual construction costs to exceed budgeted amounts.  In addition, the infrastructure improvements portion of our expansion project resulted in higher than expected costs due to weather delays and to unforeseeable soil conditions, which required us to substantially increase the scope of the work and quantity of the construction material.

     As of March 31, 2005, we spent $0.4 million on the development of an approximately 18-acre parcel of land adjacent to the Tribe’s reservation (referred to as the Dugan property development) which is expected to include an additional access road to our Casino.  We have $4.7 million remaining in a restricted account funded from the proceeds of the offering of the Notes for the development of the Dugan property.

     Our capital expenditures for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 were $6.2 million and $15.8 million, respectively.   This decrease is primarily due to the completion of the expansion project and infrastructure improvements.

     As of March 31, 2005, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $25.8 million, as compared to $34.8 million as of December 31, 2004. Our principal source of liquidity during the three- months ended March 31, 2005 consisted of cash flow from operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 was $13.2 million, an increase of $5.7 million from $7.5 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2004.  This increase is primarily due to our increased parking and the resulting increased number of patrons.

     Restricted cash consists of net proceeds from the offering of the Notes and investment earnings thereon set aside in construction financing accounts for construction costs for the three parking structures, infrastructure improvements and construction contingencies.  It also includes funds that are reserved for additional construction contingencies and the funds for the development of the Dugan property.  Our restricted cash is held in escrow accounts that can only be used for authorized construction disbursements until the related projects are completed.

     Net cash used for capital and related financing activities for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 was $14.2 million, compared to $1.0 million net cash provided by capital and related financing activities for the three-months ended March 31, 2004. Cash flow used in capital and related financing activities was primarily for repayment of the promissory note to DCC in the amount of $10.0 million and for the completion of parking structure and related infrastructure.  Cash flow used in non-capital financing activities for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 was $2.2 million, an increase of $0.7 million from $1.5 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2004.  Cash flow used in non-capital financing activitiesconsisted of distributions to the Tribe.

     We believe that existing cash balances and cash from operations as well as permitted disbursements from our restricted cash escrow accounts will provide adequate funds for our working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and debt service requirements for the foreseeable future. However, our ability to fund our operations, make planned capital expenditures, make scheduled debt payments and refinance our indebtedness depends on our future operating performance and cash flow, which, in turn, are subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Additionally, the Notes indenture limits our ability to incur additionalindebtedness.

**Contractual Obligations as of March 31, 2005**

     The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and commitments as of March 31, 2005:

(a)      Excluded from long term debt obligations above are interest payments of $19.5 million in less than 1 year; $39.0 million in 1-3 years; $39.0 million in 3-5 years and $39.0 million in more than 5 years.

(b)      Purchase obligations include payments obligations to our general contractor for construction of the three parking structures, infrastructure improvements, the designed fee obligation to the architecture company and the Dugan property development.  Purchase obligations are paid through our construction escrow accounts which were funded by proceeds from the issuance of the Notes. 

(c)       Total obligations do not include the revenue sharing trust fund payments. Our compact with the State of California requires us to pay a quarterly fee of $0.4 million to the revenue sharing trust fund, based on the number of our licensed gaming devices.

**Regulation and Taxes**

     We are subject to extensive regulation by the Tribal Gaming Commission, the CGCC and the National Indian Gaming Commission. Changes in applicable laws or regulations could have a significant impact on our operations.

      We    had initially applied for a liquor license for our Casino in 2002. On September    15, 2004, the California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control (“ABC”) decided    to recommend the denial of our alcohol license application based upon a finding    by the California State Fire Marshal that although the Casino was in compliance    with applicable building codes, if alcohol were served in the Casino, it    would fall out of compliance. We believe that we are in compliance with all    applicable safety codes required to obtain an alcohol license for the Casino.    We have been granted a hearing before an administrative law judge in May    2005 to contest the ABC’s denial.

     Since we are an unincorporated governmental instrumentality of the Tribe located on reservation land held in trust by the United States of America, we are not subject to federal or state income taxes. Various efforts have been made in Congress over the past several years to enact legislation that would subject the income of tribal business entities, such as us, to federal income tax. Although no such legislation has been enacted, similar legislation could be passed in the future. It is not possible to determine with certainty the likelihood of possible changes in tax law or in the administration of such law. Such changes, if adopted, could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and cash flow fromoperations.

**Impact of Inflation**

     Absent changes in competitive and economic conditions or in specific prices affecting the casino industry, we do not expect that inflation will have a significant impact on our gaming facility operations. Changes in specific prices, such as fuel and transportation prices, relative to the general rate of inflation may have a material adverse effect on the casino industry in general.

**Seasonality**

     We have a limited operating history. We anticipate that activity at our gaming facility may be modestly seasonal with stronger results expected during the summer due in part to the relatively higher levels of tourism during such times of the year. In addition, our operations may be impacted by adverse weather conditions and fluctuations in the tourism business. Accordingly, our results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and the results of one quarter may not be indicative of results from future quarters.

**ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

     Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.  

     Through March 31, 2005, we had not invested in derivative or foreign currency-based financial instruments.  Additionally, we primarily have fixed rate debt.  As such, we do not believe we have material exposure to market risk. 

**ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

     We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with, or furnished to, the SEC, pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules, regulations and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the ExchangeAct.

     Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 240.13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e)) as of the end of the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005.  Based on that evaluation, they have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are effective in timely providing them with material information relating to us required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurances of achieving its objectives and our Chief ExecutiveOfficer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in reaching that level of reasonable assurance.

**PART II. OTHER INFORMATION**

**ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

     ***Sonoma County Fire Marshal Inspection Case***

     On October 7, 2002, the Sonoma County Fire Chief filed an application in Sonoma County Superior Court for an inspection warrant to allow him to inspect the Tribe’s reservation, including the Casino. The Tribe removed the case to federal court. The Tribe had argued that there was no basis for the County Fire Chief to assert jurisdiction over the Tribe’s lands, which are owned in trust by the United States of America for the Tribe’s benefit, and are governed by tribal and federal law and the Compact.

     On December 9, 2004, theCourt entered an order granting in part and denying in part the Tribe’s motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim and denying the County’s motion for summary judgment. The order reaffirmed the Court’s prior ruling that Public Law 280 does not authorize the County Fire Chief to inspect the Tribe’s reservation or Casino. On March 1,  2005, the Court issued an Order granting in part and denying in part the Tribe’s  motion to dismiss for failure to join necessary and indispensable parties, holding  that United States of America is an indispensable party as to the road that provides  ingress and egress to the Tribe’s reservation from the public highway. OnApril 29, 2005, the Court entered its final order granting the Tribe’s motion forsummary judgment on the remaining issue of whether exceptional circumstancesexisted that supported the issuance of an inspection warrant for the Tribe’s casino, and entered judgment on the entire action in the Tribe’s favor. 

     We are a litigant in other matters arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management no claims are pending that could have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operation or cash flows.
