Fiscal Detail and Notes 
Presented below is a detailed estimate of revenues and ",ubsequent distribution that may be generated assuming the 
successful licensure to operate 400 slot machines by a federally recognized Indian tribe that is licensed to conduct 
high-stakes beano as of January 1,2007. This estimate assumes no significant effect on revenue generated by the 
licensed racino facility in Bangor. If there is an appreciable shift of revenue, there will be a shift in the amounts of 
dedicated revenue distributed from that facility.
