| Majestic Star Casino Provides Corrected Information to September 30, 2002 Statement of Cash Flows |
LAS VEGAS, Nov. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- In a press release issued by The
Majestic Star Casino, LLC ("MSC") on November 21, 2003, there was an addition
and calculation error in the consolidating data presented in its Consolidating
Statement of Cash Flows for the nine-months ended September 30, 2002. The
Consolidating Statement of Cash Flows for the nine-months ended September 30,
2002 was presented as part of a package of consolidating financial statements
as of September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 and for the three- and nine-
months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. The consolidating financial
statements were provided as additional investor information due to completion
of a refinancing (and related change in guarantor entities) that took place
after presentation of the September 30, 2003 balance sheet included in the
Company's most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
There are no corrections to the consolidated financial statement totals
previously presented in the November 21st press release. Attached is a
revised Consolidating Statement of Cash Flows for the nine-months ended
September 30, 2002 that incorporates the corrections to the consolidating data
described above.
MSC is a multi-jurisdictional gaming company that directly owns and
operates one dockside gaming facility located in Gary, Indiana ("Majestic
Star"), and indirectly owns and operates three Fitzgeralds brand casinos
located in Tunica, Mississippi ("Fitzgeralds Tunica" or with respect to the
operating subsidiary "Barden Mississippi Gaming, LLC"), Black Hawk, Colorado
("Fitzgeralds Black Hawk" or with respect to the operating subsidiary "Barden
Colorado Gaming, LLC") and downtown Las Vegas, Nevada ("Fitzgeralds Las Vegas"
or with respect to the operating subsidiary "Barden Nevada Gaming, LLC").
MSC, together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries comprises the Company.
This press release includes statements that constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933,
as adjusted, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
adjusted, and are subject to the safe harbor provisions of those sections and
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as
"believes," "anticipates," "estimates," "plans," "intends," "expects," "will"
or "could" used in the Company's press releases and reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.
Although the Company believes its expectations are based upon reasonable
assumptions within the bounds of its current knowledge of its business and
operations, there can be no assurances that actual results will not materially
differ from expected results. The Company cautions that these and similar
statements included in this press release and in previously filed periodic
reports are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
Such factors include, without limitation: the risk of the Company's joint
venture partner not making its lease payments when due in connection with the
parking facility at Majestic Star; the ability to fund planned development
needs and to service debt from existing operations and from new financing;
increased competition in existing markets or the opening of new gaming
jurisdictions; a decline in the public acceptance of gaming; the limitation,
conditioning or suspension of our gaming licenses; increases in or new taxes
imposed on gaming revenues, admissions and gaming devices; a finding of
unsuitability by regulatory authorities with respect to the Company or its
officers or key employees; loss and/or retirement of key employees;
significant increase in fuel or transportation prices; adverse economic
conditions in the Company's markets; severe and unusual weather in the
Company's markets; adverse results of significant litigation matters; non-
renewal of the Company's gaming licenses from the appropriate governmental
authorities; and continuing effects of terrorist attacks and any future
occurrences of terrorist attacks or other destabilizing events.
For more information on these and other factors, see The Majestic Star
Casino, LLC's and Majestic Investor Holdings, LLC's most recently filed Form
10-Ks. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. All subsequent written
and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified
in their entirety by the cautionary statements and factors that may affect
future results contained throughout this press release. The Company

looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.
