ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

Description of the Business

General

         We own and  operate the Diamond Jo  riverboat  casino,  one of only two
licensed gaming  operations in Dubuque,  Iowa. We are organized in Delaware as a
limited liability  company and commenced  operations upon our acquisition of the
Diamond Jo on July 15, 1999. The acquisition was financed,  in part, through the
issuance of  $71,000,000  of Series A 12 1/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2006 in a
transaction  exempt from the registration  requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated thereunder.

         Peninsula Gaming Corp., the co-issuer of the notes, is our wholly-owned
subsidiary  and was formed  solely to  facilitate  the  offering of the notes in
certain jurisdictions. Peninsula Gaming Corp. has no assets or operations.

         Our  address is 3rd  Street  Ice  Harbor,  PO Box 1750,  Dubuque,  Iowa
52004-1683, and our telephone number is (319) 583-7005.

The Diamond Jo

         The  Diamond Jo is a  three-story,  approximately  51,900  square  foot
riverboat casino, replicating a classic 19th century paddlewheel.  The riverboat
has the capacity for 1,390 patrons,  features a spacious  two-story atrium,  and
offers 650 slot machines and 39 table games in approximately  17,800 square feet
of gaming space. Adjacent to the Diamond Jo is a two-story, approximately 33,000
square  foot  dockside  pavilion,   featuring  our  116-seat   Lighthouse  Grill
restaurant,  our 175-seat  Lucky Jo Saloon,  our 30-seat Java Jo Coffee Bar, our
gift shop, and our 205-seat Harbor View Room, a full service  banquet  facility.
Approximately  1,000  convenient  parking  spaces are  available to our patrons,
including valet parking.  The Diamond Jo is open seven days a week and functions
primarily as a dockside  riverboat with continuous  boarding.  The Diamond Jo is
required  by Iowa law to cruise  only 100 times per year,  for a minimum  of two
hours per cruise,  which we satisfy by conducting a two-hour cruise at 7:30 a.m.
on weekdays during the spring and summer months.

         The Diamond Jo operates from, and the dockside  pavilion is located in,
Dubuque's  Ice Harbor,  a waterfront  development  on the  Mississippi  River in
downtown  Dubuque.  The  Diamond  Jo is  centrally  located in the Ice Harbor in
downtown  Dubuque and is accessible from each of the major highways in the area.
On  average,  more  than  30,000  vehicles  pass our site per day.  We share our
dockside  pavilion with the Spirit of Dubuque  dinner-boat  and the Iowa Welcome
Center, featuring a museum, historical exhibits, shops, and an observation deck.
The Mississippi River Museum is located within a five-minute walk from our site.
Several cruise ships that operate on the  Mississippi  River,  such as the Delta
Queen and the Mississippi  Queen,  stop at the Ice Harbor  regularly  during the
summer  months.   We  believe  that  the  Diamond  Jo  is  among  the  principal
entertainment venues for residents in and around Dubuque.

         In an effort to revitalize  and enhance  downtown  Dubuque and to honor
and preserve the  Mississippi  River,  the Dubuque County  Historical  Society's
Mississippi River Museum,  the City of Dubuque,  and the Dubuque Area Chamber of
Commerce   Foundation  and  numerous  private   corporations,   foundations  and
individuals,  as well as state and federal agencies,  have recently  commenced a
redevelopment project around the Ice Harbor in downtown Dubuque. This project is
expected  to  restore  beauty  and  excitement  to the Ice  Harbor  through  the
development of eight different  projects.  Approximately  $21.6 million has been
funded to date for this planned $30 million  redevelopment  project. The City of
Dubuque expects the redevelopment project to be completed in several phases over
the next four years.

Casino Operations

         We  regularly  adjust  our  overall  game mix to appeal  to our  target
market,  based on, among other factors, the coin-in,  hold percentage,  location
and age of our various  slot  machines.  Approximately  70% of the Diamond  Jo's
gaming  positions are slot machines.  The 650 slot  machines,  all of which have
bill validators, include denominations

                                      -1-
<PAGE>

of  $0.05 to  $25.00,  with  more  than  97% of the  machines  $1.00 or lower in
denomination. At any one time, approximately 20% to 25% of our slot machines are
video poker,  video keno,  and other  electronic  games of skill.  Since January
1996, the casino has replaced or installed  conversion packages on approximately
445 slot machines.  Conversion  packages are  installations of new glass,  reels
and, on occasion,  other  coinhandling  equipment to slot  machines to update or
replace the game and its appearance  without  replacing the entire machine.  The
recent  authorization  in Iowa  of  wide  area  progressives,  networks  of slot
machines throughout several casinos resulting in higher jackpots, has allowed us
to further  improve  our  product  mix with the  introduction  of 8 linked  slot
machines.  The 39 table games offered by the Diamond Jo include three craps, two
roulette,  25 blackjack,  two Caribbean  Stud, two  Let-It-Ride,  and five poker
tables, primarily with low betting limits.

Business Strategy

         The Diamond Jo is the  leading  gaming  facility in our market,  having
captured over half of Dubuque's  casino gaming revenues since 1995, the casino's
first full year of  operations.  We  attribute  our  success to our  competitive
position  and our unique  local  gaming  operations,  offering  the most  gaming
positions  and the only table games,  video poker and video keno within 60 miles
of Dubuque.  Further,  we believe that  additional  competitors  are effectively
precluded from entering our market due to  constraints  imposed by existing laws
on the availability of gaming licenses.

         We  anticipate  continued  growth  through a  combination  of  targeted
marketing  initiatives,  enhanced by our electronic player tracking system,  and
locally funded  development  programs,  including the $27 million  redevelopment
project  in  Dubuque's  Ice  Harbor,  where  the  Diamond  Jo is  located.  This
redevelopment  project is  designed  to enhance  the  attractiveness  of the Ice
Harbor as a community  center and tourist  destination,  which we believe should
lead to increased foot traffic around the site of, and increased  admissions to,
the Diamond Jo. To further  capitalize on the Ice Harbor  redevelopment  project
and to comply with  requirements  imposed by the gaming commission in connection
with the grant of our gaming license, we intend to develop a hotel contiguous to
our riverboat casino and dockside pavilion. The hotel is expected to contain 100
to 150 guest rooms and offer  meeting  space to attract  professional  and civic
organizations  for  conferences,  banquets  and other  events.  The hotel should
enable us to extend our  geographic  reach and target  nearby  tourist  markets,
including more than two million annual visitors to Galena. We believe that these
developments  will provide us with  opportunities  to  significantly  expand our
customer base, resulting in increased revenues.

Growth Strategy

         We have  developed  marketing and  promotional  strategies  designed to
attract new customers and reward frequent gaming customers.  In order to attract
new customers and create a high level of brand  recognition,  we frequently  use
billboard,  print, radio, and television advertising throughout the Dubuque area
as well as promotional offerings.  In addition, in order to maintain and enhance
goodwill  within the Dubuque  area, we sponsor  numerous  community  events.  We
believe we are  Dubuque's  largest  sponsor of these  events,  which include the
Dubuque County Fair, rodeos, concerts and holiday celebrations, such as Memorial
Day and 4th of July  fireworks.  We have  also  implemented  extensive  employee
training  programs  designed to provide a high level of personalized  service to
our customers.  Patrons of the Diamond Jo are offered membership to our players'
club,  known as the Diamond Club,  which  includes  bimonthly  mailings,  gaming
incentives,   and  food  and   beverage   discounts.   The  Diamond  Jo  uses  a
state-of-the-art  electronic  player  tracking  system to monitor  slot  machine
activity in real time, as well as the frequency and level of play of our Diamond
Club members.  This system enables us to focus our marketing efforts on our most
valued customers and increase revenues from our existing customer base. With the
help of this system,  we can identify  customer  habits,  such as the day of the
week, time of day and dollar  denominations  our players' club members prefer to
play.  We can  also  store  pertinent  information  for each  member,  including
birthdates,  favorite  sports  and music  preferences.  All of this  information
allows us to better  define our  members and gives us the ability to improve our
marketing efforts by tailoring our promotions and direct mail offers.

Competition

          General. Riverboat gaming licenses in the State of Iowa are granted to
not-for-profit  "qualified  sponsoring  organizations"  which  may  operate  the
riverboats themselves or may enter into agreements with other parties to operate
the riverboats. The granting of new licenses requires regulatory approval, which
includes, among other

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

things,  satisfactory feasibility studies. The Dubuque Racing Association is the
not-for-profit  organization  that holds the Diamond Jo's  qualified  sponsoring
organization  gaming license and has  contracted  with us to operate the Diamond
Jo.

         In 1998, the gaming commission adopted a rule that limits the number of
riverboat  gaming  licenses  in Iowa  to ten,  subject  to  limited  exceptions,
including  licenses  issued to purchasers of existing  licensed  facilities  and
licenses  issued to replace an existing  facility if its license is surrendered,
not renewed,  or revoked and  prohibits  the  transfer of a license  outside the
county in which the riverboat  operated on May 1, 1998.  There are currently ten
licensed riverboat gaming facilities  operating in Iowa. The rule also prohibits
existing licensees from increasing the number of table games or slot machines at
their gaming  facilities  without  prior gaming  commission  approval.  The 1999
legislature considered, but did not adopt, proposals to further limit the number
of  riverboats  and  expansion  of existing  boats and to make other  changes in
Iowa's gaming laws.

          The Dubuque gaming market borders other neighboring gaming markets.
These neighboring markets include:

          (1)  Elgin and Aurora, Illinois to the east;
          (2)  Marquette, Iowa and Native American gaming in Wisconsin and
               Minnesota to the north;
          (3)  Des Moines, Iowa and Native American gaming in Tama, Iowa to the
               west; and
          (4)  Clinton, Iowa and the Quad Cities (Bettendorf and Davenport, Iowa
               and Moline and Rock Island, Illinois) to the south.

         We believe  that the Diamond Jo competes  only  indirectly  with gaming
facilities in these neighboring markets.

         Dubuque.  The  Diamond  Jo's  principal  competition  is the only other
licensed  gaming  facility in Dubuque,  the Dubuque  Greyhound Park. The Dubuque
Greyhound Park, which opened its casino in 1995, is located three miles north of
the Diamond Jo and offers 600 slot machines and live  greyhound  racing from May
through October of each year with simulcasts  from other greyhound  tracks.  The
Dubuque  Greyhound  Park also offers,  on a limited  basis,  simulcasts of horse
races.  The Dubuque  Greyhound  Park is owned and operated by the Dubuque Racing
Association.  As a not-for-profit  organization,  the Dubuque Racing Association
distributes  a  percentage  of its cash  flow to the City of  Dubuque  and local
charities.  The Dubuque  Racing  Association  operating  agreement  allows us to
restrict the number of slot machines at the Dubuque  Greyhound Park to 600 if we
do not increase the number of slot  machines at the Diamond Jo to more than 650.
In  addition,  subject to limited  conditions,  the Dubuque  Racing  Association
operating  agreement allows us to require that the weighted average  theoretical
slot payback  percentage at the Dubuque  Greyhound  Park not exceed ours by more
than 0.5%.  We have elected to apply both of these  restrictions  to the Dubuque
Greyhound Park. Under Iowa law, table games,  video poker,  video keno and other
electronic  games of skill are not permitted at the Dubuque  Greyhound Park and,
subject to limited  conditions,  we may prevent the Dubuque  Greyhound Park from
having these games even if they were allowed to operate them under Iowa law.

         The Diamond Jo competed with the Silver  Eagle,  which was located five
miles east of us in East Dubuque,  Illinois,  through  substantially all of 1995
and from May 1996 to July  1997,  the date on  which  the  Silver  Eagle  ceased
operations.  We  believe  the  Silver  Eagle  ceased  operations  as a result of
competitive pressures from

          (1)  the Diamond Jo, which commenced operations of a larger riverboat
               during 1995,
          (2)  the Dubuque Greyhound Park, which commenced operations during
               1995, and
          (3)  relaxation of Iowa gaming laws in 1995, permitting riverboat
               casinos in Iowa, such as the Diamond Jo, to operate predominately
               dockside while Illinois legislation required riverboat casinos in
               Illinois, such as the Silver Eagle, to operate only while
               cruising.

         [Legislation  was recently  enacted in Illinois to provide for dockside
gaming in Illinois,  which dockside  gaming is limited to ten licenses,  nine of
which are currently  active and the tenth of which, we believe,  will be located
in Rosemont, Illinois and to relocate the existing but inactive riverboat gaming
license  to Cook  County,  Illinois,  outside  the  city  limits  of the City of
Chicago. We believe that additional  competitors are effectively  precluded from
entering  our  market,  due to  constraints  imposed  by  existing  laws  on the
availability of gaming licenses.] -3-
<PAGE>

Employees

         We maintain a staff of  approximately  475 to 500 full-time  equivalent
employees,  depending  upon  the time of the  year.  None of our  employees  are
covered by a collective bargaining agreement.  We have not experienced any labor
problems  resulting in a work  stoppage,  and believe we maintain good relations
with our employees.

Recent Developments

         On March 15, 2000, we consummated a registered exchange offer, pursuant
to which all of our issued and outstanding 12 1/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2006
were  exchanged  for our  Series B 12 1/4%  Senior  Secured  Notes due 2006 (the
"Series B Notes).

Regulatory Matters

         General.  We are subject to  regulation  by the State of Iowa and, to a
lesser  extent,  by  federal  law.  We are  subject  to  regulations  that apply
specifically  to the gaming  industry  and casinos,  in addition to  regulations
applicable to businesses  generally.  Legislative or  administrative  changes in
applicable legal requirements,  including legislation to prohibit casino gaming,
have been proposed in the past. It is possible that the applicable  requirements
to operate an Iowa gaming  facility will become more  stringent and  burdensome,
and that taxes,  fees and expenses may  increase.  It is also  possible that the
number of authorized gaming licenses in Iowa may increase, which would intensify
the  competition  that we face.  Our failure to comply with detailed  regulatory
requirements  may be grounds for the  suspension or revocation of one or more of
our licenses which would have a material adverse effect on us.

         Iowa Riverboat Gaming Regulation. Our operations are subject to Chapter
99F of the Iowa Code and the regulations  promulgated under that Chapter and the
licensing and regulatory control of the gaming commission.

         Under  Iowa law,  the legal age for  gaming is 21,  and  wagering  on a
"gambling game" is legal when conducted by a licensee on an "excursion  gambling
boat." An "excursion  gambling boat" is a  self-propelled  excursion boat, and a
"gambling game" is any game of chance authorized by the gaming commission. While
dockside  casino  gaming is currently  authorized  by the gaming  commission,  a
licensed  excursion  gambling  boat is required to conduct at least one two-hour
excursion  cruise each day for at least 100 days during the excursion  season to
operate during the  off-season.  The excursion  season is from April 1st through
October 31st of each calendar year.  The excursions  conducted by the Diamond Jo
during the 1999 cruising season  satisfied the  requirements of Iowa law for the
conduct of off-season operations.

         The  legislation  permitting  riverboat  gaming in Iowa  authorizes the
granting of licenses  to  "qualified  sponsoring  organizations."  A  "qualified
sponsoring  organization" is defined as a nonprofit  corporation organized under
Iowa  law,  whether  or  not  exempt  from  federal  taxation,  or a  person  or
association that can show to the satisfaction of the gaming  commission that the
person or association  is eligible for exemption  from federal  income  taxation
under Sections 501(c)(3),  (4), (5), (6), (7), (8), (10) or (19) of the Internal
Revenue Code. That not-for-profit  corporation may operate the riverboat itself,
or it may enter into an  agreement  with  another  boat  operator to operate the
riverboat on its behalf.  A boat  operator  must be approved and licensed by the
gaming commission.  The Dubuque Racing Association, a not-for-profit corporation
organized for the purpose of operating a pari-mutuel  greyhound  racing facility
in Dubuque,  Iowa,  first  received a riverboat  gaming  license in 1990 and has
served as the "qualified sponsoring  organization" of the Diamond Jo since March
18, 1993. The Dubuque Racing Association  subsequently  entered into the Dubuque
Racing   Association   operating   agreement  with  Greater  Dubuque   Riverboat
Entertainment  Company,  the  previous  owner and  operator  of the  Diamond Jo,
authorizing Greater Dubuque Riverboat Entertainment Company to operate riverboat
gaming operations in Dubuque. The Dubuque Racing Association operating agreement
was approved by the gaming commission on March 18, 1993. The term of the Dubuque
Racing Association operating agreement currently runs until March 31, 2002, with
two three-year renewal options afterward, subject to the satisfaction of limited
conditions.  We assumed the rights and obligations of Greater Dubuque  Riverboat
Entertainment Company under the Dubuque Racing Association operating agreement.

          Under Iowa law, a license to conduct  gaming may be issued in a county
only if the county electorate has approved the gaming. The electorate of Dubuque
County, Iowa, which includes the City of Dubuque, approved

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

gaming on May 17, 1994 by referendum,  including gaming conducted by the Diamond
Jo.  Approximately 80% of the votes cast approved gaming at that time.  However,
the  2002  referendum  must be held  at the  general  election  in  2002,  and a
reauthorization  referendum  must be  held  each  eight  years  afterward.  Each
referendum  requires  the  vote  of  a  majority  of  the  votes  cast.  If  any
reauthorization  referendum is defeated,  Iowa law provides that any  previously
issued gaming  license will remain valid for a total of nine years from the date
of original issuance of the license, subject to earlier nonrenewal or revocation
under Iowa law and regulations applicable to all licenses.

         Proposals to amend or supplement  Iowa's gaming statutes are frequently
introduced in the Iowa state  legislature.  In addition,  the state  legislature
sometimes considers proposals to amend or repeal Iowa law and regulations, which
could  effectively  prohibit  riverboat  gaming in the State of Iowa,  limit the
expansion of existing operations or otherwise affect our operations. Although we
do not believe that a prohibition of riverboat gaming in Iowa is likely,  we can
give no  assurance  that  changes in Iowa gaming laws will not occur or that the
changes will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

         The gaming commission adopted in 1998 a rule that prohibits  licensees,
including the Diamond Jo, from increasing the number of gaming tables and gaming
machines without gaming commission  approval.  This approval is based on several
factors, including whether the increase will:

          (1)  positively impact the community in which the licensee operates,
          (2)  result in permanent improvements and land-based developments, and
          (3)  have a detrimental impact on the financial viability of other
               licensees operating in the same market. As a result of this rule,
               we may be unable to increase the number of gaming positions on
               the Diamond Jo.

         Substantially all of the Diamond Jo's material transactions are subject
to review and  approval  by the gaming  commission.  All  contracts  or business
arrangements,  verbal or written,  with any  related  party or in which the term
exceeds three years or the total value of the contract  exceeds  $50,000 must be
submitted  in advance  to the  gaming  commission  for  approval.  Additionally,
contracts  negotiated  between  the  Diamond  Jo and a  related  party  must  be
accompanied by economic and qualitative justification.

         We must submit detailed  financial,  operating and other reports to the
gaming commission. We must file monthly gaming reports indicating adjusted gross
receipts  received from gambling  games and the total number and amount of money
received from admissions. Additionally, we must file annual financial statements
covering all  financial  activities  related to our  operations  for each fiscal
year. We must also keep  detailed  records  regarding  our equity  structure and
owners.

         Iowa has a graduated  wagering tax on riverboat  gambling equal to five
percent of the first one million dollars of adjusted gross receipts, ten percent
on the next two million dollars of adjusted gross receipts and twenty percent on
adjusted gross receipts of more than three million  dollars.  In addition,  Iowa
riverboats share equally in costs of the gaming  commission and related entities
to administer gaming in Iowa, which is currently approximately $316,000 per year
per riverboat.  Further,  the Diamond Jo pays to the City of Dubuque a fee equal
to $.50 per passenger.

         If the gaming  commission  decides that a gaming law or regulation  has
been violated,  the gaming  commission has the power to assess fines,  revoke or
suspend licenses or to take any other action as may be reasonable or appropriate
to enforce the gaming rules and regulations. In addition, renewal is subject to,
among other things, continued satisfaction of suitability requirements.

          Regulatory  Requirements  Applicable to Owners of the  Securities  and
Others.  We are required to notify the gaming  commission as to the identity of,
and may be required to submit background information  regarding,  each director,
corporate  officer  and owner,  partner,  joint  venturer,  trustee or any other
person  who has a  beneficial  interest  of five  percent  or  more,  direct  or
indirect,  in Peninsula Gaming Company.  The gaming  commission may also request
that  we  provide  them  with a list of  persons  holding  beneficial  ownership
interests in Peninsula Gaming Company of less than five percent. For purposes of
these rules,  "beneficial  interest"  includes all direct and indirect  forms of
ownership  or  control,  voting  power or  investment  power  held  through  any
contract, lien, lease, partnership,  stockholding,  syndication,  joint venture,
understanding,  relationship,  present or reversionary right, title or interest,
or

                                      -5-

otherwise.  The  gaming  commission  may  determine  that  holders of the notes,
Peninsula Gaming Company's common membership  interests and preferred membership
interests,  and  Peninsula  Gaming  Partners'  common  membership  interests and
convertible  preferred membership interests have a "beneficial  interest" in us.
The gaming commission may limit, make conditional, suspend or revoke the license
of a licensee in which a director,  corporate  officer or holder of a beneficial
interest in the person  includes or involves any person or entity which is found
to be  ineligible  as a result of want of character,  moral  fitness,  financial
responsibility,  or professional  qualifications or due to failure to meet other
criteria employed by the gaming commission.

         If any gaming authority, including the gaming commission,  requires any
person,  including  a  record  or  beneficial  owner  of the  securities,  to be
licensed,  qualified  or found  suitable,  the person  must apply for a license,
qualification or finding of suitability  within the time period specified by the
gaming authority. The person would be required to pay all costs of obtaining the
license,  qualification  or finding of  suitability.  If a record or  beneficial
owner  of any of the  notes  or any  membership  interest  of  Peninsula  Gaming
Partners or Peninsula  Gaming  Company is required to be licensed,  qualified or
found  suitable and is not licensed,  qualified or found  suitable by the gaming
authority within the applicable time period, these notes or membership interests
will be subject to regulatory redemption procedures.  Notes to be redeemed under
a required  regulatory  redemption are redeemable by us, in whole or in part, at
any time upon not less than 20 Business  Days nor more than 60 days  notice,  or
such earlier date as may be ordered by any governmental authority.

         As of the date of this report,  the gaming  commission has not required
the securityholders to apply for a finding of suitability to own the securities.
However,  the gaming  commission  could  require a holder of the  securities  to
submit an application in the future.

         Federal  Regulation  of Slot  Machines.  We are required to make annual
filings with the U.S. Attorney General in connection with the sale, distribution
or operation of slot  machines.  All requisite  filings for the most recent year
and the current year have been made.

         Potential  Changes  in Tax and  Regulatory  Requirements.  In the past,
federal and state legislators and officials have proposed changes in tax law, or
in the  administration  of the laws,  affecting the gaming industry.  The gaming
commission  and the  Iowa  legislature  sometimes  consider  limitations  on the
expansion  of gaming in Iowa and other  changes in gaming laws and  regulations.
Proposals  at the  national  level  have  included  a  federal  gaming  tax  and
limitations  on the federal income tax  deductibility  of the cost of furnishing
complimentary  promotional items to customers, as well as various measures which
would require withholding on amounts won by customers or on negotiated discounts
provided to customers on amounts owed to gaming companies. It is not possible to
determine with certainty the likelihood of possible changes in tax or other laws
or in the  administration  of the laws.  The changes,  if adopted,  could have a
material adverse effect on our financial results.

         The United States Congress created a national commission,  the National
Gaming  Impact  Study  Commission,  which  generally  has the duty to  conduct a
comprehensive  legal and  factual  study of  gambling  in the United  States and
existing  federal,  state and local  policies and practices  with respect to the
legalization  or  prohibition of gambling  activities,  to formulate and propose
changes  in  the  policies  and  practices  and  to  recommend  legislation  and
administrative  actions for such  changes.  The national  commission  issued its
report to President  Clinton,  Congress,  state  governors  and Native  American
tribal leaders on June 18, 1999. Any of the recommendations made by the national
commission  could result in the enactment of new laws and/or the adoption of new
regulations which could have an adverse impact on the gaming industry.  While we
are unable at this time to  determine  the  ultimate  disposition  of any of the
recommendations  that the national commission made,  management does not believe
that any of the  recommendations,  if enacted,  would be reasonably  expected to
have a material adverse effect on our gaming operations.

         Liquor Regulations. The sale of alcoholic beverages by us is or will be
subject to the licensing,  control and regulation by the liquor agencies,  which
include  the City of Dubuque  and the  Alcoholic  Beverage  Division of the Iowa
Department  of  Commerce.  The  applicable  liquor laws allow the sale of liquor
during legal hours which are Monday  through  Saturday from 6 a.m. to 2 a.m. the
next day and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. on Monday.  Subject to few exceptions,
all  persons  who  have a  financial  interest  in us,  by  ownership,  loan  or
otherwise,  must be disclosed in an  application  filed with, and are subject to
investigation  by, the liquor  agencies.  Persons  who have a direct or indirect
interest  in any Iowa  liquor  license,  other than hotel or  restaurant  liquor
licenses, may be prohibited from

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

licenses,  may be prohibited from purchasing or holding the notes.  All licenses
are subject to annual  renewal,  are  revocable  and are not  transferable.  The
liquor agencies have the full power to limit,  condition,  suspend or revoke any
license or to place a liquor  licensee on probation with or without  conditions.
Any  disciplinary  action could, and revocation  would,  have a material adverse
effect upon the  operations  of our business.  Many of our owners,  officers and
managers must be  investigated  by the liquor  agencies in  connection  with our
liquor  permits.  Changes in licensed  positions  must be approved by the liquor
agencies.

         United  States  Coast  Guard.  The Diamond Jo is also  regulated by the
United States Coast Guard,  whose  regulations  affect boat design and stipulate
on-board facilities,  equipment and personnel,  including requirements that each
vessel be operated by a minimum complement of licensed personnel, in addition to
restricting  the number of  persons  who can be aboard the boat at any one time.
Our riverboat  must hold, and currently  possesses,  a Certificate of Inspection
and a Certificate of Documentation  from the United States Coast Guard.  Loss of
the  Certificate  of Inspection  would  preclude our use of the Diamond Jo as an
operating  riverboat.  In addition,  the  riverboat is subject to United  States
Coast Guard regulations  requiring periodic hull inspections.  The United States
Coast  Guard,  upon  our  request  allowed  us to  conduct  an  underwater  hull
inspection  instead  of the  traditional  out of water dry dock  inspection.  We
expect to complete the underwater  inspection in May 2000.  The underwater  hull
inspection has not resulted in any loss of services of the riverboat. We will be
required to perform  another hull  inspection  within 30 months from the date of
the completion of the  underwater  hull  inspection.  At that time, we may again
seek approval from the Coast Guard for an underwater hull inspection in order to
avoid any loss of services of the riverboat.

         All of our  shipping  employees  employed on United  States Coast Guard
regulated  vessels,  even those who have nothing to do with the actual operation
of the vessel, such as dealers,  cocktail hostesses and security personnel,  may
be subject to maritime law, which,  among other things,  exempts those employees
from  state  limits  on  workers'  compensation  awards.  We  maintain  workers'
compensation insurance in compliance with applicable Iowa law.

         The Shipping Act of 1916; The Merchant Marine Act of 1936. The Shipping
Act of 1916, and the Merchant  Marine Act of 1936,  and  applicable  regulations
contain  provisions  which would  prevent  persons  who are not  citizens of the
United  States from holding in the  aggregate  more than 25% of our  outstanding
membership  interests,  directly or indirectly.  Peninsula  Gaming Company's and
Peninsula Gaming Partners'  respective operating agreements contain prohibitions
against any  purchase or transfer of  Peninsula  Gaming  Company's  or Peninsula
Gaming  Partners'  respective  membership  interests to any person or entity if,
following the purchase or transfer,  more than 25% of Peninsula Gaming Company's
membership interests are owned,  directly or indirectly,  by persons who are not
citizens of the United  States.  Any such  purchase or transfer in  violation of
Peninsula Gaming Company's or Peninsula  Gaming Partners'  respective  operating
agreements is null and void, and Peninsula  Gaming Company and Peninsula  Gaming
Partners will not recognize the  purchaser,  transferee or purported  beneficial
owner as a direct or indirect holder of an interest in Peninsula  Gaming Company
or Peninsula  Gaming  Partners,  respectively,  for any  purpose.  To the extent
required by maritime  laws,  the managing  member,  managers and the officers of
Peninsula  Gaming Partners and Peninsula  Gaming Company must be citizens of the
United States.

         Other  Regulations.   We  are  subject  to  federal,  state  and  local
environmental and safety and health laws,  regulations and ordinances that apply
to non-gaming  businesses  generally,  such as the Clean Air Act,  Federal Water
Pollution Control Act, Occupational Safety and Health Act, Resource Conservation
Recovery  Act,  Oil  Pollution  Act and  Comprehensive  Environmental  Response,
Compensation  and Liability Act, each as amended.  We have not incurred,  and do
not expect to incur, material expenditures with respect to these laws. There can
be no assurances, however, that we will not incur material liability under these
laws in the future.


ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

         The properties we acquired upon  consummation of the acquisition of the
Diamond Jo are located within the historic Ice Harbor  district on the west bank
of the Mississippi River in Dubuque,  Iowa. These properties  consist of several
parcels of real property previously owned by Harbor Community Investment. We own
a fee interest in the dockside  pavilion,  consisting  of  approximately  33,000
square  feet,  surface  parking  lots within  close  proximity  to the  dockside
pavilion,  and the walkway connecting the dockside pavilion to the dock to which
the Diamond Jo is moored.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>


         The  Diamond Jo and its  dockside  facility  are  currently  pledged as
collateral with respect to the 12 1/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2006,  issued on
July 15, 1999 by the Company and  Peninsula  Gaming Corp.  in the original  face
amount of $71 million.

         In addition to the properties we purchased, we currently lease property
used as a patio  located  between the dockside  pavilion and the Diamond Jo, and
property used as surface parking  consisting of approximately 445 parking spaces
that are in close proximity to the Diamond Jo. A portion of this parking area is
expected to be used for construction of the new hotel.

         These leased  properties are currently owned by the City of Dubuque and
leased  to the  Dubuque  Racing  Association,  which  in  turn  subleases  these
properties  to us. The sublease  requires us to pay one dollar per year as rent.
In  connection  with the  acquisition  of the Diamond  Jo, we  acquired  Greater
Dubuque Riverboat  Entertainment Company's interests in this sublease. The terms
of the  Dubuque  Racing  Association  lease  with  the City of  Dubuque  and our
sublease with the Dubuque  Racing  Association  have each been extended  through
December 31, 2008.

         The Dubuque Racing  Association is also party to a parking agreement by
and among the City of Dubuque,  Greater Dubuque Riverboat  Entertainment Company
and other  parties,  which  governs the use of the parking  spaces we  currently
sublease from the Dubuque Racing  Association.  This parking agreement gives our
patrons the  non-exclusive  right to use the  approximately  445 parking  spaces
currently  subleased  from the Dubuque  Racing  Association.  The agreement also
gives our patrons and employees the non-exclusive right to use approximately 335
additional  parking spaces that are owned by the City of Dubuque and are located
in close  proximity to the Diamond Jo. In exchange for these parking  rights and
the  extension  of the  sublease  with the Dubuque  Racing  Association,  we are
required, under some circumstances,  to share costs of maintaining the subleased
parking  lots. In the future,  we may amend the parking  agreement to reallocate
parking spaces that may be affected by the construction of our planned hotel.

         The gaming commission approved our application for a license to operate
a gaming  riverboat on May 20, 1999,  effective upon the transfer of the Diamond
Jo to us. As a condition to the grant of our gaming license,  we are required by
the gaming  commission  to spend up to a maximum of $11.5 million to develop and
construct a hotel  contiguous to the Diamond Jo and to commence  construction of
the hotel by December 2000. If we do not commence construction by December 2000,
the  gaming  commission  may  refuse to renew our gaming  license,  which  would
prevent us from conducting gaming operations.  It is contemplated that the hotel
will  contain 100 to 150 guest rooms and offer  meeting  space for  conferences,
banquets and other events. Although construction of the new hotel is expected to
result in the loss of some  existing  parking  spaces,  we believe there will be
adequate  alternatives  available to address our parking  needs.  Our ability to
develop and  construct  the hotel  will,  among  other  things,  depend upon the
availability  of sufficient  financing and our receipt of necessary  permits and
licenses. We intend to commence construction of the hotel by the end of December
2000. We presently have neither  commitments for any financing nor the requisite
permits, licenses or approvals necessary for construction of the proposed hotel,
and no  assurance  can be given  that these  financing,  permits,  licenses  and
approvals will be timely received, if at all.

         In connection  with our  commitment to develop and construct the hotel,
we are  currently  negotiating  a lease with the City of Dubuque for a parcel of
real  property  on which we plan to  construct  the hotel,  and a parcel of real
property presently used as a patio for the dockside  pavilion.  These properties
are currently subject to the Dubuque Racing Association sublease described above
and,  assuming we enter into the city lease,  will be excluded  from the Dubuque
Racing  Association  sublease and instead will be leased by us directly from the
City of Dubuque.  We can give no  assurances  that we will be able to enter into
the city lease on terms  satisfactory to us. Because,  at this time, we have not
entered into such a lease with the City of Dubuque and have not negotiated terms
for  such a  lease  satisfactory  to us,  we  have  requested  that  the  gaming
commission release us from our obligation to build the hotel.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         Except  as  described  below,  we are not a party  to,  and none of our
property is the subject of, any pending legal  proceedings other than litigation
arising in the normal course of business.  We believe this  litigation is either
covered  by  insurance  or not  material.  We did not assume  liability  for any
litigation  involving  the Diamond Jo or any of the related real property in our
acquisition  of the  Diamond Jo from  Greater  Dubuque  Riverboat  Entertainment
Company and of the real property from Harbor Community Investment.

         The footnotes to the historical  financial  statements  included herein
contain  references  to  expenses  associated  with  Greater  Dubuque  Riverboat
Entertainment  Company  ownership  litigation.  We  are  not  a  party  to  this
litigation,  and,  under the terms of our  acquisition  agreements,  we have not
assumed any liabilities in connection with this litigation.


ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         None.

                                     PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANTS COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

          There is no established public trading market for any of the Company's
common equity securities.

         As of March  27,  2000,  there was one  holder of record of the  common
equity of the  Company,  and the Company was the sole  shareholder  of Peninsula
Gaming Corp. As of March 27, 2000, the Company has paid  approximately  $728,000
to Peninsula  Gaming Partners,  LLC, the Company's  parent and sole manager,  in
connection  with  certain  consulting  services  provided to PGP relating to the
business operations of the Company and related organizational costs and expenses
of PGP.

ITEM 6.  SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

         The following table represents  selected  financial data of the Company
or its predecessor  companies,  Greater Dubuque Riverboat  Entertainment Company
and Harbor  Community  Investment,  L.C.,  for the five years ended December 31,
1999.

         The  selected  historical  financial  data  for the  five  years  ended
December 31, 1999 are derived from audited  financial  statements of the Company
or its predecessor combined companies.   The three years ended December 31, 1999
have been  audited  by  Deloitte & Touche  LLP,  independent  auditors,  and are
included  in  this  form  10-K.  The  Company  acquired  the  operations  of the
predecessor  companies on July 15, 1999.  The selected  financial data set forth
below should be read in  conjunction  with,  and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to, "Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results  of  Operations,"  and  the  Company's  and  the  predecessor companies'
financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this document.

         As set forth in the table below, the amount of  non-recurring  expenses
consists of  non-recurring  charges  related to sale of business and  litigation
involving  the prior  owners of the  Diamond Jo and  Greater  Dubuque  Riverboat
Entertainment  Company,  as well as organizational  costs and severance expenses
incurred by the Company.  For purposes of  determining  the ratio of earnings to
fixed  charges,  earnings are defined as income  before  income taxes plus fixed
charges.  Fixed  charges  include  interest  expense  on  all  indebtedness  and
amortization  of bond issuance costs and bond discount.  The Company's  ratio of
earnings  to fixed  charges  for the  period  from  July 15,  1999,  the date of
inception,  to  December  31,  1999  would  have been 1.1x if the  start-up  and
organizational costs expensed during this period were excluded.

ITEM 7.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following  discussion  and analysis  should be read in  conjunction
with  the  "Selected   Combined  Financial  Data"  and  the  combined  financial
statements  and the related  notes thereto  appearing  elsewhere in this report.
Some statements  contained in Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition  and Results of  Operations  constitute  "forward-looking  statements"
within  the  meaning of the  Litigation  Reform  Act,  which  involve  risks and
uncertainties.

Year Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1998

         The results of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1999
discussed below include our results of operations for the five and a half months
ended December 31, 1999 and the combined results of operations for the six and a
half months ended July 14, 1999 for the  predecessor  companies.  The results of
operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1998 discussed below are the
results  of  operations  for  the  predecessor  companies.  As a  result  of the
substantially  different  capital structure of our company in comparison to that
of the predecessor companies,  and of the applications of purchase accounting in
connection with the  acquisition,  our results of operations may not be entirely
comparable to the results of operations of the predecessor  companies.  In order
to allow for the transfer of ownership of the Diamond Jo in accordance  with the
gaming commission guidelines, the Diamond Jo was closed for 30 business hours on
July 14 and 15.

         For  the  years  ended  December  31,  1999  and  1998,  Dubuque  was a
two-casino  market  consisting of the Diamond Jo and the Greyhound Park.  Casino
gaming win in the  Dubuque  market  increased  7% to $78.7  million for the year
ended December 31, 1999 from $73.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1998.
We believe this  increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of slot
machines at the Greyhound  Park, an increase in popular  nickel  machines at the
Greyhound Park from 78 to 119 and changes in our game mix. Admissions to casinos
in the Dubuque market decreased .5% to 2,005,452 for the year ended December 31,
1999 from  2,015,017  for the year ended  December 31, 1998.  For the year ended
December 31, 1999,  our share of the Dubuque  market casino gaming win decreased
to 57.1% from 60.0% and casino admissions decreased to 55.2% from 56.7%, in each
case, for the year ended December 31, 1998. We believe our market share decrease
was  primarily  due to the  Greyhound  Park  reconfiguring  its  floor  plan and
increasing the number of its slot machines from 545 to 600 in September 1998. At
600 machines,  the Dubuque  Greyhound  Park has met the limit defined within the
Operating  Agreement with Peninsula  Gaming Company.  This agreement  expires in
April 2002.

          Net  revenues  increased  1.8% to $46.7  million  for the  year  ended
December  31, 1999 from $45.8  million for the year ended  December 31, 1998 due
primarily to improved marketing  efforts,  better tracking of, and communication
with our VIP  players  through  our  electronic  player  tracking  system  and a
continued  review and change in our game mix. Our  admissions for the year ended
December 31, 1999  decreased 3.1% to 1,106,829 from 1,142,008 for the year ended
December 31, 1998  primarily as a result of unusually  inclement  weather during
January 1999,  closing of the casino for 30 hours during  transfer of ownership,
and the change of slot machine mix at the Dubuque  Greyhound  Park. For the year
ended  December 31, 1999,  our win per admission  increased  4.9% to $40.58 from
$38.67 for the year ended December 31, 1998.  Consistent with an increase in net
revenues,  win per gaming position  increased 2.0% to $130.03 for the year ended
December 31, 1999 from $127.51 for the year ended  December 31, 1998. Our casino
revenues also  increased  1.7% to $44.9 million for the year ended  December 31,
1999 from $44.2 million for the year ended  December 31, 1998.  Casino  revenues
were  derived  81.1% from slot  machines and 18.9% from table games for the year
ended  December  31, 1999  compared to 80.9% from slot  machines  and 19.1% from
table games, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1998. The increase in
casino  revenues was due  primarily  to an increase in slot  revenues of 2.0% to
$36.4  million for the year ended  December 31, 1999 from $35.7  million for the
year ended  December 31, 1998. We believe that the  increases in slot  revenues,
casino  revenues,  win per  admission,  and win per  gaming  position  were  due
primarily to the same reasons net revenues increased for the year ended December
31,  1999 over the  corresponding  period of the prior year.  Food and  beverage
revenues and other  revenues  increased  4.6% to $2.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 1999 compared to $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1998,
primarily  due  to  an  increase  in  complimentary  food  and  beverage  sales.
Promotional  allowances  increased  by 3.7% to $1.1  million  for the year ended
December 31, 1999 compared to $1.08 million for the year ended December 31, 1998
due to an increase in complimentary food and beverage provided

                                      -13-
<PAGE>


to our Diamond Club  members.  Promotional  allowances  represent  the estimated
value of goods and services  provided free of charge to casino patrons under our
various marketing programs.

         Casino operating  expenses  increased 4.0% to $18.5 million or 41.3% of
casino revenues for the year ended December 31, 1999 from $17.8 million or 40.3%
of casino  revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998.  This increase of $0.7
million  was due  primarily  to  increased  rental  expense  related  to  vendor
participation  slot machines of  approximately  $0.6 million.  Food and beverage
expenses  increased  approximately  $.4 million or 15.6% to $2.7 million for the
year ended  December 31, 1999 from $2.3 million for the year ended  December 31,
1998.  We  believe  this  increase  was due to an  increase  in food cost due to
increased  patronage  at our bars and  restaurants,  an increase in food product
quality and an  increase in payroll  expenses  of  approximately  $0.1  million.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10.8% to $8.3 million for
the year ended  December 31, 1999 from $7.5 million for the year ended  December
31, 1998, primarily due to an increase in nonrecurring  litigation and severance
pay of $.5 million  involving the separation  and release  agreement of Jim Rix,
former Chief  Operating  Officer of Peninsula  Gaming,  an increase in marketing
promotions  of  approximately  $.2 million as well as an  increase in  insurance
costs of approximately $.1 million. Included in the year ended December 31, 1999
and 1998 operating expenses were non-recurring  expenses of $5.5 million and $.9
million, respectively, related to the sale of the business, litigation involving
the  prior  owners of the  Diamond  Jo and  Greater  Dubuque  Riverboat  and the
severance pay discussed above.

          Depreciation and amortization  expense increased 42.4% to $2.7 million
for the year  ended  December  31,  1999 from $1.9  million  for the year  ended
December 31, 1998.  This increase was due primarily to the  amortization  of $.6
million for the $56.6 million of goodwill  recorded in connection  with the July
1999  acquisition.  Net  interest  expense  was $4.5  million for the year ended
December  31, 1999 and $1.0 million for the year ended  December  31, 1998.  The
increase of  interest  expense  was due to the  issuance  of $71 million  senior
secured  notes at 12.25%  interest  rate related to the  acquisition  in July of
1999.  Loss on disposal of assets was $0.2  million for the year ended  December
31, 1999 and $0.1 million for the year ended  December  31,  1998.  These losses
were attributable primarily to the replacement/upgrade of slot machines.

Year Ended December 31, 1998 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1997

         In 1998,  Dubuque was a two-casino  market consisting of the Diamond Jo
and the  Greyhound  Park.  In 1997,  Dubuque was a  three-casino  market for the
months of January  through June and a  two-casino  market for the months of July
through December.  The third casino, the Silver Eagle, ceased operations in July
1997 due in part,  we  believe,  to  competitive  pressures  and the  effects of
restrictive Illinois gaming regulations. Casino gaming win in the Dubuque market
increased  9.6% to $73.5  million in 1998 from $67.1 million in 1997. We believe
this increase was primarily due to increased  advertising  and promotions by the
Diamond Jo and the Greyhound  Park.  Admissions to casinos in the Dubuque market
of 2.0 million in 1998 increased 1.9% from  admissions in 1997. Our share of the
Dubuque market casino gaming win and admissions were substantially  unchanged at
60.0% and 56.7%, respectively,  in 1998, and 60.5% and 56.2%,  respectively,  in
1997.

         Net revenues  increased  7.6% to $45.8  million  from $42.6  million in
1997. Our  admissions of 1.1 million in 1998  increased 2.8% from  admissions in
1997. In 1998, win per admission increased 5.9% to $38.67 from $36.51 in 1997 as
a result of increased marketing expenditures, our new electronic player tracking
system and change in our game mix including changes to the payout  probabilities
on our slot machines.  Our gaming positions were 949 at the end of both 1998 and
1997. In 1998, win per gaming position increased 8.9% to $127.51 from $117.13 in
1997 as a result of the foregoing reasons. Our casino revenues increased 8.9% to
$44.2 million in 1998 from $40.6 million in 1997.  Casino  revenues were derived
80.9% from slot  machines  and 19.1% from table games in 1998  compared to 79.3%
and 20.7% respectively,  in 1997. Slot revenues increased 10.9% to $35.7 million
in 1998 from $32.2 million in 1997.  This increase was primarily due to an 18.6%
increase in slot machine  coin-in,  which was partially  offset by a decrease in
the slot machine hold  percentage.  We lowered the slot machine hold percentages
to encourage longer play from, and to enhance the overall gaming experience for,
our current  customer  base which we believe  has  resulted  in  increased  slot
revenue.  Table  revenues were  substantially  unchanged at $8.5 million in 1998
compared to $8.4 million in 1997. Food and beverage and other revenues decreased
3.4% to $2.8  million  in 1998 from $2.9  million  in 1997 due to lower food and
beverage  prices  designed  to  attract  more  gaming   customers.   Promotional
allowances increased 33.6% to $1.1 million in 1998 from $0.8 million in 1997 due
to  increased  complimentary  food and  beverage  provided to our  Diamond  Club
members.

                                      -14-

         Casino operating  expenses increased 6.7% to $17.8 million in 1998 from
$16.7 million in 1997, but decreased as a percentage of casino revenues to 40.3%
in 1998 from 41.2% in 1997.  The increase of $1.1  million was due  primarily to
higher  gaming taxes  associated  with the  increased  casino  revenues  that we
generated in 1998 as compared to 1997. Food and beverage expense  increased $0.1
million in 1998 due to an emphasis on serving high  quality food and  beverages.
Selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased 8.2% to $7.5 million in
1998 from $6.9 million in 1997.  The increase of $0.6 million was  primarily the
result of higher  employee  benefit  costs.  Included in 1998 and 1997 operating
expenses  were  non-recurring   expenses  of  $0.9  million  and  $0.2  million,
respectively,  related to the sale of the  business  and $0.2  million  and $0.1
million,  respectively,  related to litigation involving the prior owners of the
Diamond Jo and Greater Dubuque Riverboat.

         Depreciation and amortization expense increased 3.8% to $1.9 million in
1998 from $1.8 million in 1997. The increase in  depreciation  and  amortization
expense was primarily due to the purchase of our new electronic  player tracking
system. Net interest expense was $1.0 million and $1.5 million in 1998 and 1997,
respectively.  The  reduction  of  interest  expense  was  due to a  decline  in
outstanding debt and more favorable  interest rates. Loss on disposal of assets,
which was primarily  related to the  replacement/upgrade  of slot machines,  was
substantially unchanged at $0.1 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         We generated $2.5 million in cash flows from  operations for the period
from July 15,  1999 to  December  31,  1999.  Net cash flows used for  investing
activities were $68.6 million, which related primarily to the acquisition of the
Diamond Jo in July.  Cash flows  generated  by financing  activities  were $74.1
million  comprised of the proceeds from the issuance of the senior secured notes
and common equity of $70.2 million and $9 million, respectively, and the payment
of $4.8 million for bond issuance costs.

         We believe that cash on hand and cash generated from operations will be
sufficient to satisfy our working capital requirements,  maintenance and capital
expenditures and other cash obligations. However, we cannot assure you that this
will be the  case.  If cash on hand  and  cash  generated  from  operations  are
insufficient  to meet these  obligations,  we may have to refinance  our debt or
sell some or all of our assets to meet our obligations.

         Under the  terms of the  indenture  governing  the  notes,  we have the
ability  to obtain a new  credit  facility  in the  future to borrow up to $10.0
million if we determine that the availability of this facility would benefit our
operations.  We have engaged in  preliminary  discussions  with lenders,  and we
intend to enter into a credit facility in the near future.  We expect to finance
the future construction of our planned hotel out of cash from operations and may
secure  additional  financing  through a portion of any new credit facility.  We
expect  that the total cost to build the hotel will not  exceed  $11.5  million.
There can be no assurance,  however,  that, if a credit facility is required for
the hotel  development,  we will be able to enter  into the credit  facility  on
commercially  reasonable  terms.  In that case,  the  failure to obtain a credit
facility may materially  affect our ability to finance the  construction  of our
planned  hotel,  which may result in the  revocation  of our  gaming  license or
otherwise negatively affect our operations and cash flows.

Seasonality and Inflation

         Our  business  is subject to seasonal  fluctuations  in the Iowa gaming
business,  which is typically  weaker from November through February as a result
of adverse  weather  conditions,  and  typically  stronger  from  March  through
October.  In general,  our payroll and general and  administrative  expenses are
affected by inflation.  Although  inflation has not had a material effect on our
business  to date,  we could  experience  the  effects  of  inflation  in future
periods.

Forward-Looking Statements

         Throughout  this  report  we  make  forward-looking  statements.  These
forward-looking  statements  generally relate to plans and objectives for future
operations  and are  based  upon  management's  reasonable  estimates  of future
results or trends.  Although we believe that the plans and objectives  reflected
in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, the plans or
objectives may not be achieved.  You should read this report completely and with
the  understanding  that actual future results may be materially  different from

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         We have $71 million  principal  amount of notes  outstanding  under our
indenture.  We have no variable rate debt.  Our fixed debt  instruments  are not
generally  affected by a change in the market rates of interest  and  therefore,
these instruments  generally do not have an impact on future earnings.  However,
as our fixed rate debt matures,  future  earnings and cash flows may be impacted
by changes in interest rates related to debt incurred to fund  repayments  under
maturing  facilities.  Additionally,  should we assume variable rate debt in the
future,  we will be  subject  to  market  risk,  which is the risk of loss  from
changes in market prices and interest rates.

         We have no investments in market risk sensitive  instruments  issued by
others.  The only  securities  owned by Peninsula  Gaming  Company,  LLC are the
shares of common stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Peninsula Gaming Corp.

assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in

PENINSULA GAMING COMPANY, LLC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS PURPOSE AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Peninsula Gaming Company, LLC (the "Company") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Peninsula Gaming Partners, LLC ("PGP"). The Company is a Delaware limited
liability company formed on January 26, 1999 for the purpose of purchasing
assets comprising the Diamond Jo Casino and related real property.

The common membership interests of the Company are wholly-owned by PGP. The
Company and PGP completed the sale of $71,000,000 of 12 1/4% Senior Secured
Notes due 2006 and $3,000,000 in convertible preferred membership interests,
respectively, during July 1999. Concurrently with the sale of the securities,
the Company received a $9.0 million capital contribution from PGP ($6.0 million
of which was contributed to the capital of PGP by common members of PGP and $3.0
million of which was contributed to the capital of PGP through the sale of PGP
of convertible preferred membership interests as previously described). The
proceeds for the above transactions were used to complete the purchase of
certain assets comprising the Diamond Jo casino and related real property. On
July 15, 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Greater
Dubuque Riverboat Entertainment Company, L.C. ("GDREC") and Harbor Community
Investment, L.C. ("HCI") for $77,000,000. The purchase price was $70.0 million
cash ($68.0 million net of casino cash acquired of $2.0 million) and $7.0
million in redeemable preferred membership interests (see Note 10). For
financial statement purposes the acquisition was accounted for as a purchase
and, accordingly, included in the Company's results since the date of the
acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets purchased and
the liabilities assumed based upon the fair values on the date of the
acquisition, as follows (in thousands):

            Property and equipment                               $19,300
            Current assets, other than cash                           78
            Goodwill and other intangibles                        56,559
                                                             ---------------
            Total assets                                          75,937
            Liabilities                                             (937)
                                                             ---------------
            Total Purchase Price                            $     75,000
                                                             ===============

The excess of the total acquisition costs over the fair market value of net
assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill and other intangible assets and
will be amortized on a straight-line basis over forty years.

The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of the
consolidated results of operations of the Company, GDREC and HCI as if the
acquisition had occurred January 1, 1998.

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Concentration of Risks - The Company's management estimates that regular
customers are concentrated within 100 miles of the facility representing
approximately 95% of the Company's customer base at December 31, 1999. The
remaining 5% includes groups, tourists and highway travelers that live beyond
100 miles.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks,
certificates of deposit and other highly liquid debt instruments purchased with
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - The allowance for doubtful accounts is
maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for possible future losses.
The provision for doubtful accounts of $55,367 was recorded for the period
July 15, 1999 (date of inception) through December 31, 1999.

Inventories - Inventories consisting principally of food, beverage, retail
items, and operating supplies are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out
cost or market.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost and
capitalized lease assets are recorded at their fair market value at the
inception of the lease. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, while
maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization
are computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

                 Land improvements                         20-40 years
                 Building and portside improvements         9-40 years
                 Riverboat and improvements                 5-20 years
                 Furniture, fixtures and equipment          3-10 years
                 Computer equipment                          3-5 years
                 Vehicles                                      5 years

Bond Issuance Costs - Costs associated with the issuance of the bonds have been
deferred and are being amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective
interest method.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - The excess of total acquisition costs
over the fair market value of net assets acquired is amortized using the
straight-line method over forty years. Management periodically assesses the
recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets by comparing its carrying
value to the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the acquired
operation during the anticipated period of benefit.

Long-Lived Assets - Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of" requires, among other things, that an entity review its
long-lived assets and certain related intangibles for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may
not be fully recoverable. Under the standard, if the sum of the expected future
undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an
impairment loss is recognized. The impairment is measured based on the fair
value of the asset. The Company does not believe that any such events or changes
have occurred.

Financial Instruments - The carrying amount for financial instruments included
among cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and
security deposits approximates their fair value based on the short maturity of
those instruments.

Income Taxes - The Company is limited liability company. In lieu of corporate
income taxes, the members of a limited liability company are taxed on their
proportionate share of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or
liability for federal income taxes has been included in the financial
statements.

Gaming Revenue - Gaming revenue is the net win from gaming activities, which is
the difference between gaming wins and losses.

                                      -24-
<PAGE>


Promotional Allowances - Food, beverage, and other items furnished without
charge to customers are included in gross revenues at a value which approximates
retail and then deducted as promotional allowances to arrive at net revenues.
The cost of such complimentary services have been included as casino expenses on
the accompanying statement of operations. Such estimated costs of providing
complimentary services allocated from the food and beverage and other operating
departments to the casino department from July 15, 1999 (date of inception) to
December 31, 1999 were $294,553 and $13,481 for food and beverage and other,
respectively.

Advertising - The Company's policy is to expense all advertising costs as
incurred.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In June 1998, the FASB issued a new
statement, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS
133"), effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS 133
requires, among other things, that derivatives be recorded on the balance sheet
at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives may, depending on
circumstances, be recognized in earnings or deferred as a component of
shareholders' equity until a hedged transaction occurs. In June 1999, the FASB
issued Statement No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133. Under the
new effective date, the Company currently expects to adopt FASB Statement No.
133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, in year 2001.
The effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations is not
expected to be material.

Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities - In April 1998, the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued the Statement of Position 98-5,
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities, ("SOP 98-5"). SOP 98-5 requires
that costs of start-up activities and organization costs be expensed as incurred
and is effective for the Company in 1999. The Company has expensed $3,134,095 of
organizational costs relating to the acquisition during the period ended
December 31, 1999.

<PAGE>


On July 15, 1999, the Company issued $71 million of 12.25% Senior Secured Notes
(the "Notes") due July 1, 2006. Interest on the Notes is payable semiannually on
July 1 and January 1 of each year, commencing on January 1, 2000. The Notes are
collateralized by certain cash accounts and substantially all fixed assets. The
Notes contain various restrictive covenants, which, among others, restrict the
Company from paying certain dividends and making restricted investments. The
Company was in compliance with such covenants for the period ended December 31,
1999.

The carrying amount of the Notes approximates the estimated fair value based on
the credit, interest rate and the terms of the obligation.

The Notes are not redeemable at the Company's option prior to July 1, 2003.
Thereafter, the Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole or
part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 day's notice, at the redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the applicable date of
redemption, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on July 1 of the
years indicated below:

                    Year                               Percentage

                     2003                                108.00 %
                     2004                                105.33
                     2005                                102.67

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time or from time to time prior to July 1,
2002, the Company may redeem, at their option, up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding at a redemption price of 112.25%
of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if
any, through the applicable date of redemption, with the net cash proceeds of
one or more equity offerings; provided, the such redemption shall occur within
60 days of the date of closing of such equity offering and at least 65% of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes issued on or after the issue date remains
outstanding immediately after giving effect to each such redemption. The
restrictions on the optional redemption contained in the Notes do not limit the
Company's right to separately make open market, privately negotiated or other
purchases of the Notes from time to time.


5.  CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION

Capital lease obligation at December 31, 1999 is as follows:

Liability under capital leases, due in monthly
 installments of $21,536 for one month, including

6.   EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Company started a qualified defined contribution plan under section 401(k)
of the Internal Revenue Code during December 1999. Under the plan, eligible
employees may elect to defer up to 15% of their salary, subject to Internal
Revenue Service limits. The Company may make a matching contribution to each
participant based upon a percentage set by the Company, prior to the end of each
plan year. Company matching contributions to the plan were $15,632 for the
period ended December 31, 1999.


7.  LEASING ARRANGEMENTS

The Company leases various equipment under noncancelable operating leases. The
leases require fixed monthly payments to be made ranging from $135 to $4,468 and
certain other gaming machines and tables require contingent monthly rental
payments based on usage of the equipment. The leases expire on various dates in
2000 and 2002. Rent expense for the period ended December 31, 1999 was $448,041
including contingent rentals of $358,013.

The future minimum rental payments required under these leases for the years
ended December 31 are summarized as follows:

        2000                                                      $       31,494
        2001                                                              13,569
        2002                                                               7,915
                                                                  --------------
                                                                  $       52,978
                                                                  ==============

8.   UNINSURED CASH BALANCES

The Company maintains deposit accounts at a local bank. At December 31, 1999 and
various times during the period then ended, the balance at the bank exceeded the
maximum amount insured by the FDIC. Management believes any credit risk related
to the uninsured balance is minimal.


9.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of
business. In the opinion of management, such matters will not have a material
effect upon the financial position of the Company.


10.  PREFERRED MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS--REDEEMABLE

On July 15, 1999, the Company authorized and issued $7.0 million of preferred
membership units. The holders of all of the Company's preferred membership
interests are entitled to receive, subject to certain restrictions contained in
the indenture governing the notes, out of funds legally available therefor,
cumulative preferred distributions payable semiannually at an annual rate of 9%
of the original face amount thereof. Other than certain limited consent rights
and as required by law, holders of the Company's preferred membership interests
have no voting rights.

Subject to certain  limitations  contained in the indenture governing the notes,
to the extent not used for any indemnification  obligations of the holders under
the  acquisition  agreements,  the Company  must redeem $3.0 million in original
face  amount of its  preferred  membership  interests  on January  15, 2001 at a
redemption  price  of $3.0  million,  plus  any  accrued  and  unpaid  preferred
distributions  through the date of  redemption.  Certain  managers  of PGP,  who
collectively   have  the  ability  of  control  have  guaranteed  the  Company's
obligation to redeem up to $3.0 million of such preferred membership  interests,
plus  any  accrued  and  unpaid  preferred  distributions  through  the  date of
redemption.  The balance of preferred  membership  interests  not required to be
redeemed by the Company on

                                      -27-
<PAGE>


January  15,  2001 must be  redeemed  by the  Company 90 days after the  seventh
anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition at a redemption price of $4.0
million, plus any accrued and unpaid preferred distributions through the date of
redemption.

Under the terms of the acquisition agreements, preferred membership interests in
an original face amount of $3.0 million are currently being held in escrow until
January 15, 2001 as security for certain indemnification obligations of the
holders thereunder.

11.   MEMBERS' EQUITY

On July 15, 1999, the Company authorized and issued $9.0 million of common
membership units. PGP, as the holder of all of the Company's issued and
outstanding common membership interests, is entitled to vote on all matters to
be voted on by holders of common membership interests of the Company and,
subject to certain limitations contained in the Company's operating agreement
and the indenture governing the notes, is entitled to dividends and other
distributions if, as and when declared by the Company's managers out of funds
legally available therefor.


12.   DUBUQUE RACING ASSOCIATION, LTD. CONTRACT

Dubuque Racing Association, Ltd. (the "Association"), a qualified sponsoring
organization, presently holds a license to conduct gambling games under Chapter
99F and other Iowa statutes.

The Association owns Dubuque Greyhound park, a traditional greyhound race track
with 600 slot machines and amenities including a gift shop, restaurant and
clubhouse.

The Company entered into a contract (the "Operating Agreement") with the
Association relating to the operation of an excursion gambling riverboat for
three excursion seasons through March 31, 2002, under gambling licenses held
jointly.

Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, subject to certain conditions, the
Association shall receive the greater of the Association's gaming revenues from
the greyhound park for the period, or a percentage of the total combined gaming
revenues of the Association's from the greyhound park and the Company as
follows:

o        32% of the first $30,000,000 of total combined gaming revenues, plus

o        8% of the total combined gaming revenues of $30,000,000, but less
         than $42,000,000

o        8% of total combined gaming revenues between $42,000,000 and
         $46,000,000 during any period for which no excursion boat
         gambling or land based gambling operation is carried on from
         a Wisconsin or Illinois gambling operation in Grant
         County, Wisconsin, or Joe Davies County, Illinois.

Gaming revenues under this contract means adjusted gross receipts, less gaming
taxes.

Gaming revenues for the twelve month period ended December 31, 1999 for the
Association were $25,074,718, which is higher than the previously described
thresholds, therefore, no payments have been made to the Association for the
period ended December 31, 1999 under the Operating Agreement.

Commencing April 1, 2000, and continuing thereafter, the Company shall
additionally pay the Association the sum of $.50 for each patron admitted on the
boat, which, based upon recent annual attendance, would approximate $500,000
annually.

In the event the Company  shall desire to sell or lease the  excursion  gambling
boat, its furnishings and gambling  equipment  and/or its interest in any ticket
sale  facility  or other  buildings  located in the  Dubuque  Ice Harbor used in
connection  with the operation of an excursion  gambling  boat, to a third party
that does not agree to operate said asset subject to the terms and conditions of
the Operating Agreement, and obtains an acceptable offer from said third party

                                      -28-
<PAGE>


for the purchase or lease of the excursion  gambling  boat and its  furnishings,
equipment,  and/or its interest in said building, the Association shall have the
option to purchase or lease the excursion gambling boat, its furnishings, and/or
the  Company's  interest in the building or its lease of the same for the amount
of the  acceptable  offer  made by a third  party  and upon the same  terms  and
conditions as set forth in a third party offer.


13.  TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

         In  connection  with the sale of the Notes and the  purchase of certain
assets  comprising  the Diamond Jo Casino  (Note 1),  approximately  $750,000 of
expenses  related to  organizational  and bond issuance costs were reimbursed to
various  related  parties for  expenses  incurred on behalf of the  Company.  In
addition, consulting expenses of $90,000 were paid to a unit holder for services
related to the bond issuance.  Underwriting  expenses of $2,900,000 were paid to
Jefferies & Company,  Inc., in which the Company's CEO is a managing director in
the Corporate Finance department,  and were included in organizational costs and
bond issuance costs

1.       ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Greater Dubuque Riverboat Entertainment Company, L.C. ("Greater Dubuque
Riverboat"), which is licensed by the Iowa Riverboat Gaming Commission ("IRGC"),
is an Iowa limited liability company with 52 members (who collectively own 112
units). Greater Dubuque Riverboat was organized and incorporated during May 1994
for the purpose of developing and holding the ownership interest in a riverboat
gaming operation located in Dubuque, Iowa (the "Diamond Jo Casino"). The same
members own Harbor Community Investment, L.C. ("Harbor Community") which was
formed April 8, 1996 to own and lease land and buildings in an area of Dubuque,
Iowa known as the Ice Harbor. The combined financial statements, therefore,
include the accounts and operations of Greater Dubuque Riverboat and Harbor
Community. These two entities are collectively referred to as the Company. All
material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
combination.

In January 1999, the membership of the Company approved an agreement to sell all
of the Company's operating assets used in connection with the gaming excursion
riverboat business to Peninsula Gaming Company, LLC for approximately
$77,000,000. The sale was completed in July 1999.

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Concentration of Risks - The Company's management estimates that regular
customers are concentrated within 100 miles of the facility representing
approximately 95% of the Company's customer base. The remaining 5% includes
groups, tourists and highway travelers that live beyond 100 miles.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks,
certificates of deposit and other highly liquid debt instruments purchased with
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Investments Available for Sale - The Company accounts for its investments using
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115"). This standard
requires that certain debt and equity securities be adjusted to market value at
the end of each accounting period. Unrealized market value gains and losses are
charged to earnings if the securities are traded for short-term profit.
Otherwise, such unrealized gains and losses are charged or credited to a
separate component of members' equity.

Gains and losses on the sale of available for sale securities are determined
using the specific identification method. The amortization of premiums and the
accretion of discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest
method over the period to maturity.

Accounts Receivable - Bad debts are charged to operations in the year in which
the account is determined uncollectible.

Inventories - Inventories consisting principally of food, beverages, and
operating supplies are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method)
or market.

                                      -35-

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is carried at cost and
capitalized lease assets are stated at their fair value at the inception of the
lease. Major renewals are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are
expensed when incurred. Depreciation and amortization are computed by the
straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

       Land improvements                                 20-40 years
       Building                                          40 years
       Riverboat and improvements                        18-20 years
       Leasehold improvements                            20-40 years
       Furniture, fixtures and equipment                 3-10 years
       Computer equipment                                5 years
       Vehicles                                          5 years


Intangible Assets - Intangible assets subject to amortization include loan
commitment fees and organization costs. Loan commitment fees are being amortized
straight-line over the life of the related loan. Organization costs are being
amortized straight-line over a period of 60 months.

Long-Lived Assets - Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of" requires, among other things, that an entity review its
long-lived assets and certain related intangibles for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may
not be fully recoverable. Under the standard, if the sum of the expected future
undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an
impairment loss is recognized. The impairment is measured based on the estimated
fair value of the asset. The Company does not believe that any such events or
changes have occurred.

Financial Instruments - The carrying amount for financial instruments included
among cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and
security deposits approximates their fair value based on the short maturity of
those instruments. The carrying amount of notes payable approximates their
estimated fair value based on the credit, interest rate and terms of the
obligations.

Gaming Revenue - Gaming revenue is the net win from gaming activities, which is
the difference between gaming wins and losses.

Promotional Allowances - Food, beverage, and other items furnished without
charge to customers are included in gross revenues at a value which approximates
retail and then deducted as promotional allowances to arrive at net revenues.
The cost of such complimentary services have been included as casino expenses on
the accompanying statement of operations. Such estimated costs of providing
complimentary services allocated from the food and beverage and other operating
departments to the casino department are as follows:
                                                                    Period from

                                                                      through

Advertising - The Company's policy is to expense all advertising costs as
incurred.

                                      -36-
<PAGE>
Income Taxes - The Company is a limited liability company. In lieu of corporate
income taxes, the members of a limited liability company are taxed on their
proportionate share of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or
liability for federal income taxes has been included in the financial
statements.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications - Certain information has been reclassified to conform with
the current year's presentation.

                                                                     ===========

10.      UNINSURED CASH BALANCES

The Company maintains deposit accounts at several local banks. At various times
during the fiscal year and at December 31, 1998, the balances at individual
banks exceeded the maximum amount insured by the FDIC. Management believes
credit risk related to the uninsured balances is minimal.

11.      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

During the 1997 fiscal year, the Company underwent a sales and use tax audit by
the Iowa Department of Revenue. At December 31, 1997, a liability of
approximately $178,000 was assessed, including total tax, penalty, and interest
due. This amount was paid during 1998, however, the Company is vigorously
contesting the assessment.

A lawsuit has also been filed by one of the three original "active" unit-holders
(see Note 12) regarding a number of claims, some of which have been narrowed by
the court. The primary claim is in regards to quantum merit for the value of the
services rendered to the Company. The court has narrowed that claim to those
services rendered up to and including the licensure of the Company in the Spring
of 1993. An estimate of potential liability, if any, as a result of the lawsuit
was not possible as of the date of this report.

The Company has incurred various legal expenses related to this lawsuit of
$76,833 and $211,388 for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998,
respectively. Legal expenses related to this lawsuit for the period ended July
14, 1999 were $304,742.

The Company is involved in various other legal actions arising in the normal
course of business. In the opinion of management, such matters will not have a
material effect upon the financial position of the Company.

12.      MEMBERS EQUITY

Transfers of member interests are limited in that, in accordance with Greater
Dubuque Riverboat Entertainment Co., L.C.'s operating agreement, any sale,
exchange or transfer of a member's interest in the Company shall not be
effective unless the transaction is approved by:

1.      The Manager, in writing, and

2.      By a vote of the members holding a majority of the remaining units and
        by a majority vote of the remaining members at a meeting of the members.

                                      -40-
<PAGE>


This limitation does not include the granting of a security interest, pledge,
lien, or encumbrance against any membership interest.

The profits, losses, and distributions of the Company are allocated among the
members in proportion to each member's respective percentage of Units of
Ownership when compared with total Units of Ownership issued. An exception to
this is that there is an initial unequal division of distributions in that 95%
of distributions are paid to non-developer "passive" members, and 5% to
developer "active" members until such time as said non-developer members have
received an amount equal to their original purchase price for Units of Ownership
purchased, plus 10%. Thereafter, any and all distributions are to be
proportionate to Units owned.

13.      SALE OF BUSINESS

During 1997, the Company's ownership made a decision to pursue the sale of
Greater Dubuque Riverboat and Harbor Community. The sales process has resulted
in the Company incurring various expenses related to a valuation of the
business, retaining the services of an investment banker, environmental and
market studies, legal and travel.

Sale of business expenses were $93,350 and $716,655 for the years ended December
31, 1997 and 1998, respectively. Sale of business expenses for the period ended
July 14, 1999 were $1,566,761. See Note 1 regarding the sale of the business.

             plus

          c. 8% of the total combined gaming revenues over $42,000,000, but less
             than  $46,000,000  during any period  for which no  excursion  boat

<PAGE>


             from a Wisconsin or Illinois gambling operation in Grant County,
             Wisconsin or Jo Daviess County, Illinois.

             shall additionally pay the Association the sum of $.50 for each
             patron admitted on the boat, which, based upon recent annual
             attendance, would approximate $500,000 annually.

     4.      In the event the Company shall desire to sell or lease the
             excursion gambling boat, its furnishings and gambling equipment
             and/or its interest in any ticket sale facility or other buildings

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Relationship with Dubuque Racing Association

          The Dubuque Racing Association is a not-for-profit corporation
organized for the purpose of operating the Dubuque Greyhound Park, a pari-mutuel
greyhound racing facility in Dubuque, Iowa. On February 22, 1993, the Dubuque
Racing Association entered into the Dubuque Racing Association operating
agreement which authorizes us to operate riverboat gaming operations in Dubuque.
The Dubuque Racing Association operating agreement has since been amended
several times and expires by its terms on December 31, 2008.

          Beginning April 1, 2000, we will be required to make a $0.50 per
admission payment to the Dubuque Racing Association, without regard to our
revenues or profits. Based on 1999 admissions, this payment would have amounted
to approximately $554,000. Under the Dubuque Racing Association operating
agreement, subject to limited conditions, we are required to pay the Dubuque
Racing Association, for the right to operate the Diamond Jo, an amount equal to
the excess of 32% of the first $30 million of the combined gaming revenues of
the Dubuque Racing Association and the Diamond Jo, plus 8% of the next
$12 million of these total gaming revenues, plus, if there are no competing
gaming operations in neighboring counties of Illinois and Wisconsin, 8% of the
next $4 million of total gaming revenues, over the Dubuque Racing Association's
gaming revenues from the Dubuque Greyhound Park. Gaming revenues under this
contract means adjusted gross receipts less gaming taxes. This formula is
subject to change if the Dubuque Racing Association ceases to operate the
Dubuque Greyhound Park or if we operate a riverboat smaller than the current
Diamond Jo. We currently make no payments to the Dubuque Racing Association
because the Dubuque Racing Association's revenues from the Dubuque Greyhound
Park are greater than the specified percentage of our total gaming revenues.

          The Dubuque Racing Association operating agreement allows us to
restrict the number of slot machines at the Dubuque Greyhound Park to 600;
provided, that we do not increase the number of slot machines at the Diamond Jo
to more than 650. In addition, we may require that the weighted average
theoretical slot payback percentage at the Dubuque Greyhound Park not exceed
ours by more than 0.5% so long as the rates we set are reasonable and in good
faith. Additionally, we cannot require the Dubuque Racing Association to change
rates on its machines more than four times per contract year. We have elected to
apply both of these restrictions to the Dubuque Greyhound Park. These
restrictions terminate on the earlier of:

    (1) our operation of a replacement riverboat that is not of equal or greater
        size than the Diamond Jo or on which we operate fewer total gaming
        positions than on the Diamond Jo, and
    (2) March 31, 2002. Without these restrictions, either we or the Dubuque
        Racing Association may,
        (a) increase the number of slot machines upon a determination by the
            gaming commission, among other things, that the additional slot
            machines would not have a detrimental impact on the Dubuque Racing
            Association's or our financial viability, as applicable, and
        (b) increase the weighted average theoretical slot payback percentage,
            either of which actions, if taken by the Dubuque Racing Association,
            could result in increased competition from the Dubuque Greyhound
            Park. Iowa law currently prohibits pari-mutuels, such as the Dubuque
            Greyhound Park, from operating table games, and we believe that
            table games will not become permissible at racetracks in Iowa.

          If changes to Iowa law prior to April 1, 2000 permit pari-mutuels to
operate table games, under the Dubuque Racing Association operating agreement,
we are entitled to prohibit the Dubuque Racing Association from operating table
games at the Dubuque Greyhound Park. In this case, our ability to prohibit table
games at the Dubuque Greyhound Park will terminate on the earlier of:

    (1) our operation of a replacement riverboat that is not of equal or
        greater size to the Diamond Jo or on which we
        operate fewer total gaming positions than on the Diamond Jo, and
    (2) July 11, 2000.

                                      -49-
<PAGE>


          The above restrictions are subject to the express approval and
regulatory supervision of the gaming commission. Additionally, all of the
restrictions under the Dubuque Racing Association operating agreement will
terminate if we or any of our affiliates operate another gaming facility in
Dubuque County or the adjoining counties in Illinois or Wisconsin. Under the
Dubuque Racing Association operating agreement, we have the right to sell the
Diamond Jo and related facilities, subject to the approval of the gaming
commission, as long as the acquiror agrees to abide by the terms of the Dubuque
Racing Association operating agreement.

Managing Member Indemnification

          Under our and Peninsula Gaming Partners' operating agreements, we and
Peninsula Gaming Partners have agreed, subject to few exceptions, to indemnify
and hold harmless our members, Peninsula Gaming Partners and Peninsula Gaming
Partners members, as the case may be, from liabilities incurred as a result of
their positions as our sole manager and as members of us or Peninsula Gaming
Partners, as the case may be.

Equity Contribution

          The common members of Peninsula Gaming Partners have made a capital
contribution of $6.0 million to Peninsula Gaming Partners in exchange for their
common membership interests. Peninsula Gaming Partners immediately contributed
this $6.0 million and the $3.0 million raised in the offering of the old notes
through the sale of Peninsula Gaming Partners' convertible preferred membership
interests to Peninsula Gaming Company, in exchange for common membership
interests in Peninsula Gaming Company. Peninsula Gaming Company used this
capital contribution from Peninsula Gaming Partners to finance in part the
acquisition of the Diamond Jo. Additionally, we issued $7.0 million face amount
of preferred membership interests to Greater Dubuque Riverboat Entertainment
Company in connection with the acquisition of the Diamond Jo.

Operating Agreement of Peninsula Gaming Partners

          Under Peninsula Gaming Partners' operating agreement, the management
of Peninsula Gaming Partners is vested in a board of managers composed of five
individuals, two of whom must be independent managers. At any time that M. Brent
Stevens, together with any entity controlled by Mr. Stevens, beneficially holds
at least 5% of the voting common membership interests of Peninsula Gaming
Partners, Mr. Stevens is entitled to designate three of Peninsula Gaming
Partners' managers, including one of the two independent managers. The two
independent managers shall serve as members of the independent committee. Under
Peninsula Gaming Partners' operating agreement, PGP Advisors, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, of which Mr. Stevens is the sole managing member, may
render financial advisory and consulting services to Peninsula Gaming Partners
and will be entitled to receive commercially reasonable fees for the services
consistent with industry practices. Subject to the terms of the indenture
governing the notes, these fees will be paid by us as distributions to Peninsula
Gaming Partners.

          At any time that Michael Luzich, together with any entity controlled
by Mr. Luzich, beneficially holds at least 5% of the voting common membership
interests of Peninsula Gaming Partners, Mr. Luzich is entitled to designate two
of Peninsula Gaming Partners' managers, including the other independent manager.

          Presently, Peninsula Gaming Partners' board of managers is composed of
five managers. A manager may resign at any time, and the member who designates a
manager may remove or replace that manager from the board of managers at any
time.

Operating Agreement of Peninsula Gaming Company

          Under the terms of Peninsula Gaming Company's operating agreement, if
we repay, redeem or refinance 90% or more of the notes on or prior to July 1,
2003, particular members of management, including Messrs. Luzich and Stevens,
will be entitled to receive, at Mr. Stevens' discretion, an aggregate of $1.5
million, payable by Peninsula Gaming Company.

Engagement of Management Consultant

          Peninsula Gaming Partners has engaged Riviera Gaming Management, Inc.
to assist, on an interim basis, with transitional matters, including the
selection of a new chief operating officer to oversee our riverboat casino
operations. Riviera Gaming Management, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Riviera Holdings Corporation, which owns the Riviera Hotel & Casino in Las
Vegas, Nevada, will be paid customary fees and expenses in connection with this
engagement. Mr. Westerman, a manager on the board of managers of Peninsula
Gaming Partners, is Chairman of the Board of Riviera, Inc., an affiliate of
Riviera Gaming Management, Inc.

          In addition, we have entered into an Employee Sharing Agreement with
Riviera Gaming Management, Inc. and Jerome Grippe, whereby Mr. Grippe provides
management services to us and serves as our general manager. The initial term of
the agreement expires on August 31, 2000, but renews automatically for
successive 6-month terms. Under this agreement, we pay Riviera a monthly fee of
$7,500, and reimburse Mr. Grippe for his reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

                           EMPLOYEE SHARING AGREEMENT

Employee Sharing Agreement ("Agreement"), dated as of March 1, 2000, by and
between Riviera Gaming Management, Inc. ("RGM"), Jerome Grippe ("Grippe") and
Peninsula Gaming Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
("Peninsula").

WHEREAS, Peninsula desires to engage the services of Grippe, an employee of RGM,
and RGM and Grippe agree to such employment, in each case, pursuant to the terms
and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth,
for good and valuable consideration, the adequacy and receipt of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

          1. This Agreement shall have an initial term commencing on the date
hereof through August 31, 2000 (the "Initial Term") and shall automatically
renew for successive six-month terms (the Initial Term, and any successive term,
hereinafter, the "Term") unless this Agreement is terminated earlier as provided
herein. Any party may terminate this Agreement at any time after the Initial
Term for any reason upon 60 days prior written notice to the other party;
provided, however, that Peninsula may terminate Grippe's employment hereunder at
any time for just cause. For purposes of this Section 1, "just cause" means (i)
a material breach of this Agreement by Grippe (after notice and a 10-day cure
period); (ii) a breach of Grippe's duty of loyalty to Peninsula or any act of
dishonesty with respect to Peninsula or its members, customers or suppliers;
(iii) Grippe's continued failure or refusal to perform any material duty to
Peninsula which is normally attached to his position (after notice and a 10-day
cure period); (iv) Grippe's gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing
those duties which are normally attached to his position; (v) the commission by
Grippe of an act of fraud, conversion, misappropriation (including the
unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential or proprietary information of
Peninsula) or embezzlement or crime of moral turpitude; (vi) a conviction of or
guilty plea or confession by Grippe to any fraud, conversion, misappropriation,
embezzlement or felony; (vii) the exposure of Peninsula to any criminal
liability or regulatory sanction or adverse action substantially caused by the
conduct of Grippe which results in a material adverse effect upon Peninsula's
business, operations, financial condition or results of operations or the
exposure of Peninsula to any civil liability caused by Grippe's unlawful
harassment in employment; or (viii) the repeated taking of any action prohibited
(x) by the board of managers or any of the executive officers of Peninsula,
provided that Grippe has received at least one written notice of having taken an
action so prohibited, or (y) by this Agreement; or (ix) Grippe's failure to
obtain and/or maintain an appropriate license to serve as General Manager of the
Diamond Jo riverboat casino located in Dubuque, Iowa (the "Facility").

          2. During the Term of this Agreement, Peninsula hereby agrees to
employ Grippe,  Grippe agrees to be employed by Peninsula,  and RGM agrees to
offer the services of Grippe to Peninsula,  in each case, as set forth herein to
carry out such duties and  responsibilities  as directed by the Chief  Executive
Officer of Peninsula,  which duties and responsibilities  shall include, but are
not limited to, (i) managing the  day-to-day  operations of the  Facility,  (ii)
functioning  as the  General  Manager of the  Facility  with all  authority  and
responsibility  inherent therein; and (iii) assisting Peninsula in the selection
of a permanent  General Manager and Chief Financial Officer and coordinating the
integration of such  individuals with Peninsula's  business  operations,  all of
which are subject to the further delineation at the

                                      -55-
<PAGE>
direction of M. Brent  Stevens,  President  and CEO of  Peninsula.  Grippe shall
report directly and solely to Mr. Stevens,  Peninsula's Chief Executive Officer,
and shall  perform his services  hereunder at the Facility  three (3) days every
two weeks and be available by  telephone,  email or fax at all other times.  RGM
shall  have  no  supervisory  or  directive  control  over  Grippe  while  he is
functioning  as an  employee  of  Peninsula  under the terms of this  Agreement.
During the Term of this  Agreement,  Grippe shall remain an employee of RGM, and
Grippe's  employment by Peninsula  hereunder shall not otherwise limit or affect
in any manner whatsoever the benefits  otherwise  accorded Grippe as an employee
of RGM; provided, however, that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement,
Grippe shall not be entitled to any  compensation  or benefits of any kind as an
employee of Peninsula.

          3. During the Term of this Agreement, Peninsula shall pay to RGM the
sum of seven thousand five hundred dollars ($7,500) per month, or a pro-rata
portion thereof in respect of any partial month during which Grippe is employed
hereunder (the "Monthly Fee"), for services performed hereunder, which Monthly
Fee shall be paid in advance on the first day of each month, commencing March 1,
2000. In addition to the Monthly Fee, Grippe and RGM, if advanced by RGM, shall
be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
him or it in connection with his performance under this Agreement, which
payments shall be (i) submitted by Grippe or RGM on a monthly basis (together
with written documentation reasonably acceptable to Peninsula evidencing such
expenses) and (ii) paid by Peninsula within 10 days of receipt thereof.

          4. Peninsula hereby agrees that RGM will have no responsibility for
managing the gaming operations of the Diamond Jo riverboat casino or the
management of the business or affairs of Peninsula.

          5. Grippe and RGM acknowledge that the information, observations and
data obtained by or available to Grippe during the course of employment with
Peninsula concerning the business and affairs of Peninsula are and will be the
property of Peninsula. Therefore, Grippe and RGM agree, during the Term of this
Agreement and following the termination of Grippe's employment for any reason
whatsoever, not to disclose or induce or assist in the use or disclosure, to any
person or entity, or use for the account of any person or entity other than
Peninsula, any such information, observations or data including, without
limitation, any business secrets or methods, processes, formulas, designs,
inventories, techniques, marketing plans, strategies, forecasts, new products,
blueprints, specifications, maps, computer software programs, promotional ideas,
unpublished financial statements, budget projections, licenses, prices, costs,
policies, manuals or instructions, reports, lists of names and/or addresses of
customers, prospective customers or suppliers, other customer or prospective
customer information or requirements, personnel information, the terms of any
Company contract, lease or other arrangement with any customer or leasing
information (including without limitation, expiration dates, renewal dates,
pricing information, other data used by Peninsula in connection with its gaming
operations, special requirements, referral lists or other data setting forth
names and addresses of customers) or any other of its confidential or
proprietary information, records, observations or data (whether or not patented,
copyrighted or otherwise protected under applicable law) or information created,
discovered, developed, or made known to Peninsula (including, without
limitation, information created, discovered, developed, or made known by Grippe
to Peninsula during his period of employment by Peninsula) along with any
reports, analyses, compilations, memoranda, notes and other writings or
recordings prepared by Grippe or any other employee, agent or representative of
Peninsula, which contain, reflect or are based upon such information,
observations or data (collectively, "Confidential Information") without
Peninsula's prior written consent, unless and to the extent that the
aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the
public other than as a result of RGM's or Grippe's acts or omissions to act, and
except as required by law or legal process. In the event Grippe's employment
with Peninsula is terminated for any reason whatsoever, Grippe and RGM will
promptly return and surrender to Peninsula any and all Confidential Information
made available to either Grippe or RGM by Peninsula or otherwise in the
possession of Grippe or RGM in the course of Grippe's employment with Peninsula.

                                      -56-

          6. Grippe and RGM each further agree that, for a period of six months
following any termination of Grippe's employment for any reason whatsoever,
neither Grippe nor RGM will, directly or indirectly, either for themselves or
for any other person, firm, company or corporation, in any capacity, induce or
attempt to induce or call upon or solicit any of Peninsula's employees,
consultants, customers, prospective customers, suppliers, landlords or other
business relations of Peninsula to leave or cease doing business with Peninsula
or in any way interfere with the relationship between Peninsula and any of its
employees, customers, prospective customers, suppliers, landlords or other
business relations thereof or hire or solicit for employment any employee of
Peninsula. If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 6, a court holds that
the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then
existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum duration, scope and
geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for
the stated period, scope and area and that the court shall be allowed to reduce
the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum duration, scope and area
permitted by law. Grippe and RGM each acknowledge that a violation of the
provisions of this Agreement will cause irreparable harm to Peninsula's
business, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the
remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, Grippe and
RGM agree that, in the event of such violation or threatened violation by either
of them, Peninsula shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy which may
be available at law or in equity, to specific performance and injunctive relief,
without posting bond or other security. Grippe and RGM further agree that, in
the event of the voluntary or involuntary termination of Grippe's employment
with Peninsula for any reason whatsoever, Grippe and RGM shall promptly deliver
to Peninsula all documents, photocopies, notes, drawings, data and other
materials of any nature pertaining to Grippe's employment with Peninsula, and
neither Grippe nor RGM shall take with them, or allow any third party to take,
any of the foregoing or any reproduction of any of the foregoing.

          7. This agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance
with the laws of the State of Iowa without giving effect to conflicts of law
provisions thereof.

          8. Peninsula, RGM and Grippe hereby agree that any dispute arising
under or with respect to this Agreement shall be determined by arbitration in
Las Vegas, Nevada pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association
("AAA") by a panel of three arbitrators with experience in the gaming business,
one of whom shall be appointed by RGM, one of whom shall be appointed by
Peninsula and the third of whom shall be appointed by the first two arbitrators
and shall act as Chairman, provided that if a party shall fail to appoint an
arbitrator within 20 days after commencement of the arbitration or the Chairman
shall not be appointed within 40 days of the commencement of the arbitration,
the same shall be appointed by the AAA. Such arbitrators may award legal fees
and expenses to the party prevailing in such arbitration. The decision of such
arbitrators shall be binding upon the parties hereto.

          9. This Agreement represents the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to its subject matter and may be amended or modified only by a
written instrument duly signed by the parties hereto.

          10. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be
given as follows:
