                 TRUMP'S CASTLE ASSOCIATES, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARY
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)
(1) ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include those
of Trump's Castle Associates, L.P., a New Jersey limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Trump's Castle Funding, Inc., a
New Jersey corporation ("Funding"). The Partnership is 99% owned by Trump Hotels
& Casino Resorts Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("THCR
Holdings") and 1% by Trump's Castle Hotel & Casino, Inc., a New Jersey
corporation ("TCHI"). TCHI is wholly owned by THCR Holdings, and THCR Holdings
is currently a 63.4% owned subsidiary of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("THCR").

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

     The Partnership operates the Trump Marina Hotel Casino ("Trump Marina"), a
luxury casino hotel located in the Marina District of Atlantic City, New Jersey.
The primary portion of Trump Marina's revenues are derived from its gaming
operations. Competition in the Atlantic City gaming market is intense and the
Partnership believes that the competition will continue to intensify due to
expansion by existing operators and new entrants to the gaming industry becoming
operational.

     Funding was incorporated solely to serve as a financing company to raise
funds through the issuance of bonds to the public. Since Funding has no business
operations, its ability to repay the principal and interest on the $62,000,000
10 1/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2003 (the "New Senior Notes"), the 11 3/4%
Mortgage Notes due 2003 (the "Mortgage Notes") and its Increasing Rate
Subordinated Pay-in-Kind Notes due 2005 (the "PIK Notes") is completely
dependent upon the operations of the Partnership. (See Note 3 regarding
refinancing of the 11 1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2000 (the "Old Senior
Notes".)

     TCHI was incorporated to engage in casino gaming activities pursuant to the
New Jersey Casino Control Act. Since TCHI has no operations, its ability to
repay the principal and interest on the $5,000,000 10 1/4% Senior Secured Notes
due 2003 (the "Working Capital Loan") is completely dependant on the operations
of the Partnership. (See Note 3 regarding refinancing of the Old Senior Notes.)

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Partnership without audit. In the opinion of the Partnership,
all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments necessary to
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
the periods presented have been made.

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Partnership pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, certain information
and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted.

     These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997
filed with the SEC by the Partnership and Funding.

     Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior year financial
information to the current year presentation.

     The casino industry in Atlantic City is seasonal in nature; accordingly,
the results of operations for the three and nine month periods ending September
30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full
year.

(2) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     During the second quarter of 1997, the Partnership revised its estimates of
the useful lives of buildings, building improvements and furniture and fixtures
which were acquired in 1996. Buildings and building improvements were
reevaluated to have a forty year life and furniture and fixtures were determined
to have a five to seven year life.

                 TRUMP'S CASTLE ASSOCIATES, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARY
       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
                                   (unaudited)

The Partnership believes these changes more appropriately reflect the timing of
the economic benefits to be received from these assets during their estimated
useful lives. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the net effect of
applying these new lives was to decrease the net loss by $1,409,000. There was
no effect on net loss as a result of applying these new estimates of useful
lives for the three months ended September 30, 1998.

(3) LONG TERM DEBT

     On April 17, 1998, Funding refinanced its Old Senior Notes and its term
loan with a bank (the "Term Loan") by issuing the New Senior Notes. The New
Senior Notes have a priority mortgage lien ahead of the Partnership's Mortgage
Notes and are further secured by virtually all of the Partnership's assets. The
proceeds from the issuance of the New Senior Notes were used to redeem all of
the issued and outstanding Old Senior Notes at 100% of their principal amount
and to repay the Term Loan in full. In conjunction with this refinancing, TCHI
obtained the Working Capital Loan. Both the New Senior Notes and the Working
Capital Loan are guaranteed by the Partnership.

     The New Senior Notes have an outstanding principal amount of $62,000,000
and bear interest at the rate of 10 1/4% per annum, payable semi-annually each
April and October. The New Senior Notes mature on April 17, 2003 and are
included in Other Borrowings in the Partnership's condensed consolidated balance
sheet.

     The Working Capital Loan has an outstanding principal amount of $5,000,000
and bears interest at the rate of 10 1/4% per annum, payable semi-annually each
April and October. The entire principal balance of the Working Capital Loan,
which matures on April 17, 2003, is payable to TCHI and is included in Other
Borrowings on the Partnership's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

     A tender offer was made to the existing Partnership Mortgage Note holders
on July 9, 1998, offering $940 per $1,000 of principal amount, plus accrued
interest. On August 19, 1998, the tender offer was amended to increase the
consideration to be paid to tendering Mortgage Note holders to $975 per $1,000
of principal amount, plus accrued interest. Consummation of the tender offer was
conditioned upon, among other things, a minimum tender of 98% of the principal
amount of the Mortgage Notes. Since the minimum tender requirement of 98% was
not satisfied, the tender offer expired at 5:00 p.m. on September 17, 1998, in
accordance with its terms.

ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

     Cash flow from operating activities is the Partnership's principal source
of liquidity. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Partnership's
net cash flow provided by operating activities was $16,992,000.

     In addition to funding operations, the Partnership's principal uses of cash
are capital expenditures and debt service.

     Capital expenditures for 1998 are anticipated to be approximately
$4,000,000 and principally consist of hotel room renovations, as well as ongoing
casino floor improvements.

     At September 30, 1998, the Partnership's debt consisted primarily of (i)
the Mortgage Notes, (ii) the PIK Notes, (iii) the New Senior Notes and (iv) the
Working Capital Loan.

     The Mortgage Notes have an outstanding principal amount of approximately
$242,141,000, bear interest at the rate of 11 3/4% per annum and mature on
November 15, 2003.

     The PIK Notes have an outstanding principal amount of approximately
$86,508,000 and mature on November 15, 2005. Interest is currently payable
semi-annually at the rate of 13 7/8%. On or prior to November 15, 2003, interest
on the PIK Notes may be paid in cash or through the issuance of additional PIK
Notes. During the second quarter of 1998 interest in the amount of approximately
$5,612,000 was paid through the issuance of additional PIK Notes and the
Partnership anticipates that additional interest due during the fourth quarter
of approximately $6,002,000 will be paid through the issuance of additional PIK
Notes.

     On April 17, 1998, Funding refinanced its Old Senior Notes and its Term
Loan by issuing the New Senior Notes. The proceeds from the issuance of the New
Senior Notes were used to redeem all of the issued and outstanding Old Senior
Notes at 100% of their principal amount and to repay the Term Loan in full. In
conjunction with this refinancing, TCHI obtained the Working Capital Loan and
loaned the proceeds to the Partnership.

     The New Senior Notes have an outstanding principal amount of $62,000,000
and bear interest at the rate of 10 1/4% per annum, payable semi-annually each
April and October. The New Senior Notes mature on April 17, 2003.

     The Working Capital Loan has an outstanding principal amount of $5,000,000
and bears interest at the rate of 10 1/4% per annum, payable semi-annually each
April and October. The entire principal balance of the Working Capital Loan
matures on April 17, 2003.

     A tender offer was made to existing Partnership Mortgage Note holders on
July 9, 1998, offering $940 per $1,000 of principal amount, plus accrued
interest. On August 19, 1998, the tender offer was amended to increase the
consideration to be paid to tendering Mortgage Note holders to $975 per $1,000
of principal amount, plus accrued interest. Consummation of the tender offer was
conditioned upon, among other things, a minimum tender of 98% of the principal
amount of the Mortgage Notes. Since the minimum tender requirement of 98% was
not satisfied, the tender offer expired at 5:00 p.m. on September 17, 1998, in
accordance with its terms.

     The Partnership's total cash debt service requirement was approximately
$21,480,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and the Partnership
anticipates that approximately $18,531,000 in cash will be required during the
remainder of 1998 to meet its debt service obligations. The Partnership has the
authority to obtain a working capital facility of up to $10,000,000 (of which
approximately $5,440,000 is outstanding), although there can be no assurance
that such financing will be available or on terms acceptable to the Partnership.

     The Partnership has assessed the year 2000 issue and has begun implementing
a plan to insure its systems are year 2000 compliant. Analysis has been made of
the Partnership's various customer support and internal administration systems
with appropriate modifications having been made or underway. Testing the
modifications will be ongoing during 1998 and is expected to be completed during
early 1999. The Partnership is approximately 50% complete in its modifications.

     The Partnership believes that the issues of concern are predominantly
software related versus hardware related. Further, the Partnership relies upon
third party suppliers for support of their individual systems provided to the
Partnership. These are primarily support of property, plant and equipment, such
as telephones, elevators and fire safety systems. Contact has been made with all
significant system suppliers and the Partnership is at various stages of

assessment, negotiation and implementation. When necessary, contracts have been
issued to update these systems so as to insure year 2000 compliance. The cost of
addressing the year 2000 issue is not expected to be material, and will be
funded out of operations.

     If the Partnership did not assess the year 2000 issue and provide for its
compliance, it would be forced to convert to manual systems to carry on its
business. Since the Partnership expects to be fully year 2000 compliant, it does
not feel that a contingency plan is necessary at this time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: OPERATING REVENUES AND EXPENSES

     The financial information presented below reflects the financial condition
and results of operations of the Partnership. Funding is a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Partnership and conducts no business other than collecting
amounts due under certain intercompany notes from the Partnership for the
purpose of paying principal of, premium, if any, and interest on its
indebtedness, which Funding issued as a nominee for the Partnership.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

     Table game revenues decreased by $2,243,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 compared to the prior year. This decrease is a result of the
increased gaming capacity in the Atlantic City market as well as a lower table
game win percentage than the previous year. Table game revenues represent the
amount retained by the Partnership from amounts wagered at table games. The
table game win percentage tends to be fairly constant over the long term, but
may vary significantly in the short term, due to large wagers by "high rollers."
The Atlantic City industry table game win percentages were 15.5% and 14.6% for
the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

     Non gaming revenues, in the aggregate, increased by approximately $459,000
or 2.5% to $19,165,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998 from
$18,706,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997, primarily as a result
of an increase in food and beverage revenues and entertainment revenues which
were partially offset by a decrease in rooms revenue due to a reduction in
complimentary room rates. The complimentary room rates were reduced by
management to more closely conform to current industry practice. Industry-wide
room rates have recently decreased as a result of increased room inventory in
the Atlantic City market.

     Gaming costs increased approximately $2,336,000 or 5.2% to $46,941,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1998 from $44,605,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1997. This increase is primarily the result of an increase
in promotional and complimentary expenses as well as increased entertainment
expenses.

ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)

     Table game revenues decreased by approximately $6,777,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the prior year, primarily due to
reduced table game drop and a lower table game win percentage. The reduction in
table game drop is a result of the increased gaming capacity in the Atlantic
City market as well as managements' decision to reduce promotional gaming costs
in an effort to eliminate less profitable programs. Table game revenues
represent the amount retained by the Partnership from amounts wagered at table
games. The table game win percentage tends to be fairly constant over the long
term, but may vary significantly in the short term, due to large wagers by "high
rollers." The Atlantic City industry table game win percentages were 15.3% and
14.9% for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

     Non gaming revenues, in the aggregate, decreased by approximately
$2,620,000 or 5.3% to $46,765,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
from $49,385,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, primarily as a
result of a decrease in rooms revenue due to a reduction in complimentary room
rates.

     The majority of the decrease in non gaming revenues was offset by a
corresponding decrease in promotional allowances. Promotional allowances
decreased by approximately $1,681,000 or 5.4% to $29,672,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 from $31,353,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1997, primarily as a result of a decrease in complimentary rooms related to
marketing activities. These savings are primarily due to the decrease in
complimentary room rates.

     Gaming costs decreased approximately $4,543,000 or 3.5% to $125,545,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from $130,088,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997. This decrease is primarily the result of a decrease in
promotional and complimentary expenses achieved by eliminating less profitable
programs.

     General and administrative expenses decreased approximately $3,988,000 or
8.2% to $44,844,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from
$48,832,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 primarily due to
reduced advertising expenses and also as a result of reduced payroll and other
benefits related to Trump Casino Services, L.L.C., a wholly owned subsidiary of
THCR Holdings, which provides administrative support services to all of the
Trump Atlantic City Properties. In addition, insurance reserves were reduced by
approximately $620,000 as a result of an internal risk management review.

SEASONALITY

     The casino industry in Atlantic City is seasonal in nature; accordingly,
the results of operations for the three and nine month periods ending September
30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full
year.

IMPORTANT FACTORS RELATING TO FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe
harbor" for forward-looking statements so long as those statements are
identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by meaningful cautionary
statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those projected in such statements. In connection with
certain forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q and those that may be made in the future by or on behalf of the
Registrants, the Registrants note that there are various factors that could

contained in this Quarterly Report will be realized or that actual results will
not be significantly higher or lower. The statements have not been audited by,

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 -- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The Partnership, its partners, certain members of the former Executive
Committee of the Partnership, Funding and certain of their employees are
involved in various legal proceedings. Such persons and entities are vigorously
defending the allegations against them and intend to contest vigorously any
future proceedings. The Partnership and Funding have agreed to indemnify such
persons against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses (including
reasonable costs, disbursements and counsel fees) and liabilities (including
amounts paid or incurred in satisfaction of settlements, judgments, fines and
penalties) incurred by them in said legal proceedings.

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

     From time to time, the Partnership may be involved in routine
administrative proceedings involving alleged violations of certain provisions of
the New Jersey Casino Control Act. However, the Partnership believes that the
final outcome of these proceedings will not, either individually or in the
aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Partnership or on its ability
to otherwise retain or renew any casino or other licenses required under the New
Jersey Casino Control Act for the operation of Trump Marina.
