                                  ------------
 
    Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC, a Nevada limited-liability company
("Holdings"), and Aladdin Capital Corp, a Nevada corporation ("Capital" and,
together with Holdings, the "Issuers"), hereby offer, upon the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in this Prospectus and the accompanying Letter of
Transmittal (which together constitute the "Exchange Offer") to exchange an
aggregate amount at maturity of up to $221.5 million of 13 1/2% Series B Senior
Discount Notes due 2010 (the "New Notes") of the Issuers, which have been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
for a like principal amount of the issued and outstanding 13 1/2% Series A
Senior Discount Notes Due 2010 (the "Old Notes" and, together with the New
Notes, the "Notes") of the Issuers from the holders (the "Holders") thereof. The
terms of the New Notes are identical in all material respects to the Old Notes,
except for certain transfer restrictions and registration rights relating to the
Old Notes and except that the Old Notes provide that, if a Registration Default
(as defined herein) has occurred, damages ("Liquidated Damages") shall accrue at
a rate of 0.25% per annum with respect to the first 90-day period immediately
following the occurrence of the first Registration Default and that the amount
of Liquidated Damages increases by an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to
each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured,
up to a maximum amount of Liquidated Damages of 1.00% per annum.
 
    On February 26, 1998 (the "Issue Date") the Issuers issued $221.5 million
aggregate amount at maturity of Old Notes together with 2,215,000 Warrants (the
"Warrants") to purchase 2,215,000 shares of Class B non-voting Common Stock, no
par value (the "Common Stock") of Aladdin Gaming Enterprises, Inc., a Nevada
corporation ("Enterprises" and, together with the Issuers, the "Aladdin
Parties"). The Old Notes and the Warrants were issued together as Units (the
"Units") pursuant to an offering (the "Offering") exempt from registration under
the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
 
    The initial Accreted Value (as defined herein) of the Notes was $519.40 per
$1,000 principal amount at maturity of the Notes. The Notes will mature on March
1, 2010. The Notes accrete at 13 1/2% (computed on a semi-annual bond equivalent
basis) based on the initial Accreted Value, calculated from February 26, 1998.
Cash interest on the Notes will not accrue prior to March 1, 2003. Thereafter,
cash interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 13 1/2% per annum based on
the Accreted Value at maturity of the Notes and will be payable semi-annually in
arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1,
2003. The Old Notes were offered at an original issue discount for federal
income tax purposes. See "Description of the Notes" and "Certain United States
Federal Income Tax Considerations."
 
    The Notes are joint and several obligations of the Issuers and will be
redeemable at the option of the Issuers, in whole or in part, at any time on or
after March 1, 2003 at the redemption prices set forth herein, plus accrued and
unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if applicable, thereon to the date of
redemption. In addition, in the event of a Qualified Public Offering (as defined
herein) prior to March 1, 2001, which results in aggregate net proceeds of at
least $50.0 million, the Issuers may, at their option, redeem up to 35% of the
Accreted Value of the Notes with the net proceeds therefrom at a redemption
price equal to 113 1/2% of the Accreted Value plus Liquidated Damages, if
applicable, to the date of redemption. Upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control (as defined herein), the holders of the Notes will have the right to
require the Issuers to purchase their Notes at a price equal to 101% of the
Accreted Value thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Liquidated
Damages, if applicable, thereon to the date of purchase. There can be no
assurance that the Issuers will have sufficient funds to purchase the Notes
after a Change of Control. See "Risk Factors--Change of Control."
 
    The net proceeds from the Offering, together with the proceeds from the
other Funding Transactions (as defined herein), including a $410.0 million new
bank credit facility (the "Bank Credit Facility") entered into by Aladdin
Gaming, LLC (the "Company"), a Nevada limited-liability company and a wholly
owned subsidiary of Holdings, and $80.0 million available under the FF&E
Financing (as defined herein) will be used to finance the development,
construction and opening of a new hotel and casino, the Aladdin Hotel and Casino
(the "Aladdin") in Las Vegas, Nevada. Pursuant to the Disbursement Agreement (as
defined herein), all of the proceeds from the Offering must be expended before
any of the proceeds of the Bank Credit Facility may be disbursed. The Company is
in the development stage and will have no assets or operations other

than its interests in the Aladdin and activities in connection with the
Aladdin's development. Therefore, the Company will have no revenues until the
Aladdin becomes operational. It is expected that the Aladdin will become
operational in the first four months of the year 2000. The Notes will be joint
and several senior obligations of the Issuers, will rank PARI PASSU in right of
payment with all current and future senior Indebtedness (as defined herein) of
the Issuers and will rank senior in right of payment to all current and future
subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers. The Notes will be secured by a first
priority pledge of all amounts in the Note Construction Disbursement Account (as
defined herein), until disbursed in accordance with the Disbursement Agreement,
and by a first priority pledge of all of the issued and outstanding Series A
preferred membership interests (the "Series A Preferred Interests") of the
Company. The liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Interests will at
all times equal the Accreted Value of the Notes. The Notes will not be
guaranteed by any of Holdings' subsidiaries. Therefore, the Notes will be
effectively subordinated to all Indebtedness and other liabilities of Holdings'
subsidiaries (including, without limitation, to the Company's obligations under
the Bank Credit Facility). The Issuers do not and may not in the future have any
material assets other than Holdings' ownership of 100% of the Common Membership
Interests in the Company and its ownership of the Series A Preferred Interests
in the Company, and do not and may not in the future have any material
operations or revenues (other than income derived from its interests in the
Company). Accordingly, the Issuers' ability to pay principal interest, premium,
if any, or any other payment obligation on the Notes will be completely
dependent on the operations of the Company. The only outstanding indebtedness of
the Issuers is, and upon consummation of the Exchange Offer will be, the Notes.
Upon completion of the Aladdin, the Company is expected to have $430.0 million
of outstanding Indebtedness, including $410.0 million outstanding under the Bank
Credit Facility and an aggregate of $20.0 million outstanding under the loan
portion of the FF&E Financing. The FF&E Financing will also consist of $60.0
million of operating leases. Upon the opening of the Aladdin, the Company is
expected to have an aggregate of $10.0 million available under a working capital
facility. The indebtedness of Holdings and the Company, collectively, is
expected to represent 95% of their total capitalization as of the opening of the
Aladdin.
 
    Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings and was incorporated solely
for the purpose of serving as a co-issuer of the Notes in order to facilitate
the Offering. Capital currently does not and will not in the future have any
material operations or assets and currently does not and will not in the future
have any revenues. Holders of the New Notes should not expect Capital to
participate in servicing the principal, interest, premium, or any other payment
obligations on the New Notes.
 
    For each Old Note accepted for exchange, the Holder of such Old Note will
receive a New Note having an Accreted Value equal to that of the surrendered Old
Note. The New Notes will accrete at the same rate as the Old Notes and cash
interest on the New Notes will accrue at the same time and at the same rate as
the Old Notes. Old Notes accepted for exchange will cease to accrete or bear
interest, as applicable, from and after the date of the consummation of the
Exchange Offer.
 
    The New Notes are being offered hereunder in order to satisfy certain
obligations of the Issuers contained in the Note Registration Rights Agreement
(as defined herein). Based on interpretations by the staff of the Commission, as
set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties, the Issuers believe that
New Notes issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer in exchange for Old Notes may be
offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by holders thereof (other
than any holder which is an "affiliate" of the Issuers within the meaning of
Rule 405 under the Securities Act), without compliance with the registration and
prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that such New
Notes are acquired in the ordinary course of such holders' business and such
holders have no arrangement with any person to participate in the distribution
of such New Notes. However, the Commission has not considered the Exchange Offer
in the context of a no-action letter and there can be no assurance that the
staff of the Commission would make a similar determination with respect to the
Exchange Offer as in such other circumstances. Each holder, other than a
broker-dealer, must acknowledge that it is not engaged in, and does not intend
to engage in, a distribution of such New Notes and has no arrangement or
understanding to participate in a distribution of New Notes. Each broker-dealer
that receives New Notes for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must
acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of
such New Notes. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by
delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is
an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. However this does not
preclude a broker-dealer from being deemed an "underwriter" within the meaning
of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented
from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of
New Notes received in exchange for Old Notes where such Old Notes were acquired
by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities. The Issuers have agreed that they will make this Prospectus
available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale as
such broker-dealer may reasonably request. See "Plan of Distribution."
 
    The Issuers will not receive any proceeds from the Exchange Offer. The
Issuers will pay all the expenses incident to the Exchange Offer as required to
be paid by the Issuers under the Note Registration Rights Agreement. Tenders of
Old Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to
5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second to last business day prior to the
Expiration Date (as defined herein). In the event the Issuers terminate the
Exchange Offer and do not accept for exchange any Old Notes, the Issuers will
promptly return the Old Notes to the holders thereof. See "The Exchange Offer."
 
    There is no existing trading market for the New Notes, and there can be no
assurance regarding the future development of a market for the New Notes. The
Initial Purchasers (as defined herein) have advised the Issuers that they
currently intend to make a market in the New Notes. The Initial Purchasers are
not obligated to do so, however, and any market-making with respect to the New
Notes may be discontinued at any time without notice. The Issuers do not intend
to apply for listing or quotation of the New Notes on any securities exchange or
stock market.

    In the event that the Issuers are not required to be subject to the

Commission, and to furnish to holders of the New Notes (i) all quarterly and
annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing
with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Issuers were required to file
such forms, and with respect to the annual information, a report thereon by the
Issuers' certified public accountants and (ii) all current reports that would be
required to be filed on Form 8-K if the Issuers were required to file such
reports.
 
    No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any
representation concerning the Notes other than those contained herein and, if
given or made, such other information or representation should not be relied
upon as having been authorized by the Issuers.
 
                          DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD
                               LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
    This Prospectus contains certain statements that are "forward looking
statements." Those statements include, among other things, the discussions of
the business strategies of the Issuers and the Company and expectations
concerning future operations, margins, profitability and liquidity and capital
resources. Forward looking statements are included in "Prospectus Summary,"
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and elsewhere in this Prospectus. Although the Issuers believe that
the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable,
the Issuers do not give any assurance that such expectations will prove to be
correct. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies,
projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of such plans or
strategies of the Issuers and the Company or financial projections involving
anticipated revenues, expenses, earnings, levels of capital expenditures or
other aspects of operating results. All phases of the operations of the Issuers
and the Company are subject to a number of uncertainties, risks and other
influences, many of which are outside the control of the Issuers and the Company
and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect the
results of operations of the Issuers and the Company and whether the forward
looking statements made by the Issuers ultimately prove to be accurate.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
Issuers' expectations are

                                  THE COMPANY
 
   
    The Company plans to develop, construct and operate the Aladdin as the
centerpiece of an approximately 35 acre world-class resort, casino and
entertainment complex (the "Complex") located on the site of the original
Aladdin hotel and casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, a premier location at the center
of Las Vegas Boulevard (the "Strip"). The Aladdin has been designed to include a
luxury themed hotel of approximately 2,600 rooms (the "Hotel"), an approximately
116,000 square foot casino (the "Casino"), an approximately 1,400-seat
production showroom and seven restaurants. The Casino's main gaming area will
contain approximately 2,800 slot machines, 87 table games, keno and a race and
sports book facility. Included on a separate level of the Casino will be a
15,000 square foot luxurious gaming section (the "Salle Privee") which is
expected to contain an additional 20 to 30 high limit table games and
approximately 100 high limit slot machines. The Salle Privee will cater to
wealthy clientele and be operated and marketed in conjunction with London Clubs,
a prestigious, multi-national casino operator which caters to international
premium players. The Complex, which has been designed to promote Casino traffic
and to provide customers with a wide variety of entertainment alternatives, will
comprise (i) the Aladdin; (ii) a themed entertainment shopping mall with
approximately 522,000 square feet of retail space (the "Desert Passage"); (iii)
a second hotel and casino, with a music and entertainment theme, expected to be
known as "Sound Republic Hotel and Casino" (the "Music Project"); (iv) a newly
renovated 7,000-seat Theater of the Performing Arts (the "Theater"); and (v) an
approximately 4,800-space car parking facility (the "Carpark" and, together with
the Desert Passage, the "Mall Project"). The Mall Project and the Music Project
will be separately owned by affiliates of the Company. The Company's business
and marketing strategies are expected to capitalize on the Complex's premier
location, its superior designed, mixed-use, themed development, and strong
strategic partnering with highly successful public companies. The grand opening
date for the Aladdin and the Mall Project is currently anticipated to occur
during the first four months of the year 2000, with the opening of the Music
Project expected to occur within six months after the opening of the Aladdin.
    
 
    The Company's management team is led by Chief Executive Officer Richard J.
Goeglein, the former President and Chief Executive Officer of Harrah's Hotels
and Casinos and President and Chief Operating Officer of Holiday Corp., who
during his term at Harrah's oversaw the expansion of the Harrah's brand,
including the development of Harrah's Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City.
Assisting Mr. Goeglein as Senior Vice President of the Company and
President/Chief Operating Officer of the Aladdin Hotel and Casino is James H.
McKennon, who as President and Chief Operating Officer of Caesars Tahoe was
instrumental in its financial turnaround and as President of Caesars World
International Marketing Corp. was responsible for the global marketing of the
Caesars brand.
 
    It is expected that approximately $75 million will be spent on theming in
the Aladdin and the Desert Passage, of which approximately $35 million will be
spent by the Company on the Aladdin. This theming will create an environment in
the Aladdin that will be based upon the Legends of the 1001 Arabian Nights,
including the intriguing tales of Aladdin, Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves, Sinbad
and other legendary stories woven around ancient wealth and wonders. The
Aladdin's exterior will be designed to include a highly
 
                                       1
<PAGE>
articulated streetscape, a themed Casino exterior shaped like a Bedouin tent,
fountains, walkways, sculptures and an outdoor restaurant. The sophisticated
interior of the Aladdin will utilize rich colors, textures and design, enhancing
the fantasy of a mystical romantic time and place. A significant feature of the
Desert Passage will be the themed area to be known as the "Lost City." The "Lost
City" is expected to contain a re-creation of an ancient mystical mountain city
and will house a variety of specialty shops and restaurants underneath a
10-story high ceiling. The Company believes that the Aladdin, with its unique
theme, together with the Desert Passage, will ensure its place as a "must-see"
destination in one of the world's largest entertainment cities.
 
    The Company believes that upon completion, the Aladdin, the Mall Project and
the Music Project together will constitute one of the largest and best-planned
integrated, mixed-use entertainment resorts in the world. Aladdin Bazaar
Holdings, LLC ("Bazaar Holdings"), a subsidiary of the Trust, and TH Bazaar
Centers Inc. ("THB"), a subsidiary of TrizecHahn Centers Inc. ("TrizecHahn"),
have entered into a joint venture agreement and formed Aladdin Bazaar, LLC
("Bazaar") to develop, construct, own and operate the Mall Project. TrizecHahn
is the principal retail subsidiary of TrizecHahn Corporation, one of the largest
publicly-traded real estate companies in North America. The Desert Passage is
expected to include an array of high-fashion specialty stores, exotic boutiques,
themed restaurants, cafes and other entertainment offerings. The Desert Passage
will be directly connected to the Casino to maximize Casino traffic.
 
   
    Aladdin Music Holdings, LLC ("AMH"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, and a subsidiary of Planet Hollywood International, Inc. ("Planet
Hollywood") have entered into a memorandum of understanding (the "Music Project
Memorandum of Understanding") and formed Aladdin Music, LLC ("Aladdin Music"),
which will own and develop the Music Project. The Music Project Memorandum of
Understanding is subject to the finalization of financing commitments. Planet
Hollywood is a creator and worldwide developer of themed restaurants and
consumer brands, most notably "Planet Hollywood" and the "Official All Star
Cafe." Planet Hollywood has announced that it intends to position a brand of
music-themed entertainment venues as its third major brand. The Music Project,
which will be managed by the Company, is expected to include an approximately
1,000 room hotel, a 50,000 square foot casino, four restaurants, including a
music-themed restaurant which will feature its own 1,000-person nightclub, a
health spa and an outdoor swimming pool. As part of the development of the
Complex, the Company expects to indirectly contribute to Aladdin Music $21.3
million in cash and land having an appraised fair market value of $15.0 million
in exchange for a preferred membership interest in Aladdin Music and to lease to
Aladdin Music the existing 7,000-seat Theater for a nominal amount. It is
anticipated that Aladdin Music will carry out an approximately $8 million
renovation of the Theater, improving its decor, light and sound systems and
other facilities. A further distinguishing feature of the Music Project is the
anticipated active involvement of famous artists and celebrities, some of whom
are expected to be stockholders of Planet Hollywood (or its affiliates),
participate in the marketing of Planet Hollywood's music-themed brand and
perform at the Theater or make other personal appearances at the Music Project.
The Music Project, with its music and entertainment theme, will complement the
Aladdin and it is expected that together the two hotels will offer an excitement
and variety of entertainment alternatives that will further distinguish the
Complex from other venues on the Strip.
    
 
   
    The development of the Aladdin commenced during the first quarter of 1998.
The original Aladdin hotel and casino closed for business on November 25, 1997
and the original facility was demolished on April 27, 1998. The development of
the Mall Project is expected to commence during the second quarter of 1998,
followed thereafter by the expected commencement of the development of the Music
Project in the second half of 1998. There can be no assurance, however, that
either of the Mall Project or the Music Project will, in fact, be completed. If
either or both are not completed, the Company will need to expend additional
amounts (expected to be up to approximately $23 million) with respect to the
completion of shared structural space and the cost of surface parking. See "Risk
Factors--Completion of the Mall Project and the Music Project."

STRENGTHS
 
    The Company believes that several important advantages will contribute
significantly to the success of the Aladdin:
 
    PREMIER LOCATION.  The Aladdin's 800 feet of Strip frontage is located on
the section of the Strip between Flamingo Road at the north and Tropicana
Boulevard at the south. Based upon independent research and assuming completion
of the Bellagio, Paris and Venetian development projects, the average vehicular
traffic that will pass the Complex each day is expected to be approximately
54,000.
 
    Another major feature of the Complex will be its easy access from Las Vegas'
McCarran International Airport ("McCarran Airport"), only 2.5 miles away.
According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (the "LVCVA"), the
number of visitors to Las Vegas has increased at a steady and significant rate
for the last 15 years, growing from approximately 10 million in 1980 to
approximately 19 million in 1990 to over 30 million in 1997, with approximately
47% of these visitors in 1997 arriving by air through McCarran Airport. McCarran
Airport, the tenth busiest airport in the United States, is currently in the
process of expanding its capacity through the addition of 26 new gates, and it
is expected that following completion thereof, the number and percentage of
visitors arriving in Las Vegas by air will further increase, making easy access
from McCarran Airport to Las Vegas' resorts even more crucial.
 
    MASTER-PLANNED, MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT.  The Aladdin has been carefully and
strategically designed to promote Casino traffic. Each element of the Complex
has been sited and planned in a manner that maximizes pedestrian and vehicular
traffic so as to facilitate access to and from the Complex, as well as
circulation between the different parts of the Complex, with the Casino being
the nexus for the vast majority of pedestrian traffic. Significant portions of
the Desert Passage and all of the Theater's entrances and exits will be accessed
through, or be adjacent to, the Casino. The Casino will be located in front of
the Hotel, and unlike many of the newer projects on the Strip, will provide easy
access for pedestrians without requiring long walks into the Complex. Pedestrian
visitors to the Aladdin entering from the Aladdin's 800 feet of Strip frontage
will be able to enter the Hotel directly through the Casino or through the
Desert Passage entrances. Through the use of a circular internal roadway, guests
arriving by limousine, car service, taxi or private vehicle will be able to
enter the Complex directly and easily from the Strip and Harmon Avenue.
Furthermore, by the use of bridges and access ways, pedestrians will not be
required to cross roadways while moving between different attractions on the
Complex, thus facilitating ease of movement between the various parts of the
Complex and the Strip.
 
    UNIQUE ENTERTAINMENT FACILITIES.  The Aladdin is expected to benefit from
the Casino traffic generated from the broad variety of entertainment facilities
located throughout the Complex. The Aladdin will be adjacent to the existing
Theater, which is expected to continue to be used to hold major concerts and
theatrical performances and is one of the few venues of its size and type in
Nevada. The Theater's approximately $8 million renovation is expected to
transform it into a first-class venue and provide an additional source of
visitor traffic to the Complex.
 
    The Aladdin will include a 1,400-seat showroom featuring a 1001 Arabian
Nights-themed production show on its mezzanine level, with elegant, exotic
costuming, music, lighting and choreography. In addition, the Desert Passage
will be designed to engage the customer in a themed shopping, entertainment and
dining experience. Of the approximately 522,000 square feet of retail space
within the Desert Passage, it is anticipated that approximately 25% will be
devoted to high pedestrian traffic generating food, beverage and entertainment
experiences. Furthermore, the Music Project is expected to contain a
1,000-person nightclub featuring regular live performances.
 
    PRESTIGIOUS STRATEGIC PARTNERS.
 
    The Company and the Complex will benefit from important relationships with
several prominent public companies, as follows:
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
- -  LONDON CLUBS INVESTMENT. London Clubs, a prestigious multi-national casino
    operator, indirectly owns 25% of the outstanding common membership interests
    of Holdings (the "Holdings Common Membership Interests"). London Clubs had
    an equity market capitalization of over $461 million on May 29, 1998. London
    Clubs has extensive experience in the international marketing of casinos to
    premium players and maintains a strong presence in the United Kingdom (where
    it controls the largest share of the London casino market), Europe, Asia and
    the Middle East. In addition to its 25% ownership of the outstanding
    Holdings Common Membership Interests, London Clubs, through LCNI, will
    direct the operations of, and act as marketing consultant to, the Salle
    Privee. The Company believes that the Salle Privee will be the first of its
    kind in the United States managed by a European operator and based on the
    European concept of full service gaming areas for premium players. The Salle
    Privee's primary business and marketing focus will be to access London
    Clubs' worldwide base of upscale casino clientele.
 
   
- -  JOINT VENTURE WITH PLANET HOLLYWOOD. Through a subsidiary, Planet Hollywood
    has agreed to be a 50% partner (on a fully diluted basis) in the Music
    Project. Planet Hollywood is a creator and worldwide developer of consumer
    brands, most notably "Planet Hollywood" and the "Official All Star Cafe,"
    that capitalize on the universal appeal of the high energy environment of
    movies, sports and other entertainment-based themes. The Company believes
    that the exposure generated by the Music Project will enhance the Aladdin by
    providing immediate excitement and press coverage for the Complex.
    
 
   
- -  STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIP WITH TRIZECHAHN. The Mall Project will be owned,
    developed and operated by Bazaar, a joint venture between Bazaar Holdings
    and THB, a subsidiary of TrizecHahn. TrizecHahn is a wholly-owned subsidiary
    of TrizecHahn Corporation, one of the largest publicly traded real estate
    companies in North America. TrizecHahn was the developer of Horton Plaza in
    San Diego, Bridgewater Commons in New Jersey, Valley Fair in San Jose and
    Park Meadows in Denver. Investors should note that TrizecHahn has announced
    that it is considering selling its operating portfolio of regional shopping
    centers and on April 6, 1998, announced the sale of 20 regional shopping
    centers for over $2.5 billion. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall
    Project and the Music Project." While TrizecHahn's announcement is limited
    to the sale of its current operating portfolio of regional shopping centers,
    there can be no assurance that TrizecHahn will not similarly decide to sell
    its interest in the Desert Passage. Accordingly, investors cannot be assured
    that TrizecHahn will own and operate the Desert Passage once it becomes
    operational, and as a result, pedestrian traffic to the Aladdin may
    decrease.
    
 
STRATEGY
 
    The Company's business and marketing strategies are expected to capitalize
on the Complex's premier location, its superior designed, mixed-use themed
development and strong strategic partnering with highly successful public
companies.
 
    CREATE A "MUST-SEE" DESTINATION.  The Company believes that the Aladdin,
with its unique design, together with the Desert Passage and the Music Project
will ensure its place as a "must-see" destination in one of the fastest growing
entertainment cities in the world. The Aladdin theme will be supported by a
sophisticated interior design enhancing the fantasy of a mystical and romantic
time and place. The Aladdin's main Casino traffic will be driven not only by
Hotel guests, but also by the customers directly attracted from the Strip.
Visitor traffic to the Aladdin will also be enhanced by the Desert Passage and
the adjoining Music Project.
 
    TARGETED MARKET POSITIONING.  The Company intends to focus on three
different market segments to attract customers to the Aladdin:
 
- -  UPSCALE CLIENTELE. The Hotel will be designed to appeal to an upscale
    clientele, providing the amenities and level of service such high-end guests
    expect. Each of the Hotel's approximately 2,600 guest rooms will have an
    area of not less than 450 square feet--exceeding that of the average Las
    Vegas hotel room
 
                                       4
<PAGE>
    of approximately 360 to 400 square feet--and 24% of the Hotel's guest rooms
    will have an area exceeding 620 square feet. The Hotel's room inventory for
    the upscale market is expected to include 624 "king parlors" and suites,
    ranging from 585 to 1,162 square feet. The Hotel will provide extensive
    recreational facilities and amenities for its guests, including a 20,000
    square foot health spa with steam, sauna and massage services and an outdoor
    swimming-pool complex surrounded by gardens and fountains. The Company
    intends to promote the Aladdin's many features to the upscale market through
    a variety of media, including high-end print publications, travel agents and
    events sponsorships. A targeted-relationship marketing program is expected
    to ensure clientele retention and repeat visitation.
 
- -  INTERNATIONAL PREMIUM PLAYER CLIENTELE. The focus of the Salle Privee's
    business will be the wealthy clientele that form the core of London Clubs'
    business in London and elsewhere. The Hotel will include 30 suites primarily
    for use by Salle Privee clientele, including 25 "Salle Privee suites"
    (ranging from 815 to 930 square feet) and five "mega-suites" (ranging from
    2,125 to 3,500 square feet). The Company will maintain the Salle Privee's
    premium player atmosphere through more sophisticated dining options, higher
    table limits and more formal levels of service and dress.
 
- -  UPPER-MIDDLE MARKET CLIENTELE. The Hotel's variety of guest rooms, six of its
    seven restaurants and the 1,400-seat production showroom, combined with the
    heavily themed Casino, Theater and Desert Passage, are expected to appeal
    broadly to the upper-middle market guest. Additionally, cooperative
    advertising and promotion through various media, such as television, radio
    and print, will be used to promote the Complex to the upper-middle market.
    Furthermore, the Music Project is expected to attract younger, affluent
    customers to the Complex through, among other things, its music and
    entertainment-based theme.
 
    LEVERAGE FROM STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS.  The Company and its affiliates have
chosen as strategic partners an experienced team of retail, casino and themed
entertainment developers and operators. The Company intends to utilize the
unique expertise of its partners from the preliminary development stages of the
Complex through its promotion and operation.
 
- -  DEVELOPMENT EXPERTISE. In establishing a strategic relationship with
    TrizecHahn, the Company has obtained the knowledge, skills and capital of a
    partner who has expertise in the coordination, construction and completion
    in a timely manner of large, high quality projects.
 
- -  MANAGEMENT AND OPERATING ABILITIES. The Complex is expected to benefit from
    the experience of TrizecHahn, London Clubs and Planet Hollywood in its
    operations. Through its management and ownership of shopping centers,
    TrizecHahn has demonstrated its ability to successfully design, configure
    and attract high quality tenants to its retail shopping projects. London
    Clubs has extensive experience in the international marketing and operation
    of casinos, in particular to premium players. In addition, Planet Hollywood
    has successfully grown its concepts to 87 company-owned and franchised
    Planet Hollywood and Official All Star Cafe units (as of December 31, 1997)
    since commencing business in 1991.
 
- -  CAPITALIZING ON BRAND NAMES. With access to some of the most well-known names
    in their respective markets, the Company expects to capitalize on the
    worldwide brand recognition of Planet Hollywood, London Clubs and
    TrizecHahn, creating unique opportunities for the Complex.
 
- -  ACCESSING NEW CLIENT BASE. London Clubs and Planet Hollywood are expected to
    provide the Complex with access to market segments which the Company
    believes have not been extensively penetrated by other hotel/casinos in Las
    Vegas. London Clubs provides the Aladdin with a substantial network of
    international premium players and superb promotional opportunities.
    Furthermore, it is expected that Planet Hollywood will introduce a younger,
    affluent clientele to the Complex through, among other things, celebrity
    involvement in the Music Project.
 
    CAREFULLY MANAGE CONSTRUCTION COSTS AND RISKS.  The Company anticipates the
total cost of developing, financing, constructing and opening the Aladdin to be
approximately $790 million (excluding the Company's $21.3 million planned
indirect cash contribution and $15.0 million appraised fair market value land
 
                                       5
<PAGE>
contribution to Aladdin Music as part of the development funds for the Music
Project). As part of the Company's strategy of carefully managing construction
costs and risks, the Company has hired Tishman Construction Corporation of
Nevada ("Tishman"), to be the construction manager. Tishman is a subsidiary of
Tishman Realty & Construction Co. Inc., a privately held company with extensive
experience in building quality hotels and casinos. As construction manager,
Tishman will advise with respect to scheduling, administration and reporting in
connection with the construction activities of the Design/ Builder (as defined
herein). In addition, the following arrangements have been made to ensure the
full and timely completion of the Aladdin.
 
   
- -  BANK COMPLETION GUARANTY AND NOTEHOLDER COMPLETION GUARANTY. London Clubs,
    the Trust and Bazaar Holdings have entered into a completion guaranty (the
    "Bank Completion Guaranty") for the benefit of the lenders under the Bank
    Credit Facility (the "Bank Lenders"), under which they have agreed to
    guarantee, among other things, the completion of the Aladdin. The Bank
    Completion Guaranty is not subject to any maximum dollar limitations. The
    holders of the Notes are not party to the Bank Completion Guaranty, however
    London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar Holdings have entered into a limited
    completion guaranty for the benefit of the holders of the Notes (the
    "Noteholder Completion Guaranty"), under which they guarantee completion of
    the Aladdin, subject to certain important exceptions, limitations and
    qualifications. The Noteholder Completion Guaranty contains certain
    intercreditor provisions which significantly limit the rights of the Trustee
    (as defined herein) under the Noteholder Completion Guaranty. In particular,
    the Noteholder Completion Guaranty sets forth certain standstill periods
    during which the Trustee or the holders of the Notes may not enforce the
    Noteholder Completion Guaranty or seek remedies thereunder even if there is
    a default under the Bank Completion Guaranty and the Bank Lenders are no
    longer advancing funds. In particular, the Noteholder Completion Guaranty
    may not be enforced unless (i) no funds have been advanced under the Bank
    Credit Facility, (ii) the Bank Credit Facility has been indefeasibly repaid
    in full and the Guarantors have been completely released from their
    obligations under the Bank Completion Guaranty, or (iii) a default has
    occurred under the Bank Completion Guaranty and the Bank Lenders have failed
    to fund construction, for a period ranging from two to six months, depending
    upon the amount which has been advanced under the Bank Credit Facility at
    such time. In addition, there are limitations and restrictions on the rights
    of the Trustee to enforce the Noteholder Completion Guaranty, particularly
    following any exercise of remedies by the Bank Lenders. No financial
    information regarding the Trust is available for the purpose of evaluating
    the Trust's creditworthiness and, accordingly, purchasers of Notes should
    not rely upon the Trust's performance under the Bank Completion Guaranty or
    Noteholder Completion Guaranty when making their investment decision. See
    "Risk Factors--Lack of Available Information on the Trust's Ability to
    Perform Its Obligations Under Certain Agreements," "--Limitations Under Bank
    Completion Guaranty and Noteholder Completion Guaranty," "Description of
    Noteholder Completion Guaranty and Disbursement Agreement--Noteholder
    Completion Guaranty" and "Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other
    Obligations--Completion Guaranty."
    
 
- -  DESIGN/BUILD CONTRACT. Fluor Daniel, Inc. (the "Design/Builder") is the
    design/builder for the Aladdin. The Design/Builder has entered into a
    guaranteed maximum price design/build contract (subject to increases based
    on scope changes) with the Company to design and construct the Aladdin (the
    "Design/Build Contract"). The Design/Build Contract provides the
    Design/Builder with incentives for completing the Aladdin ahead of schedule
    and within budget and for payment of liquidated damages to the Company for
    certain delays. The Design/Build Contract is guaranteed by Fluor Corporation
    ("Fluor"), the parent of the Design/Builder, pursuant to the Fluor Guaranty
    (as defined herein). See "Certain Material Agreements--Design/Build
    Contract."
 
- -  MALL FINANCING AND MALL GUARANTY. Bazaar has entered into a building loan
    agreement with Fleet National Bank ("Fleet," and together with any lenders
    in a financing syndicate to be formed, the "Mall Lenders"), and Fleet as
    administrative agent for a credit facility to fund the construction of the
    Mall Project (the "Mall Financing"). Furthermore, TrizecHahn, TrizecHahn
    Office Properties, Inc.
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
    ("THOP"), an affiliate of TrizecHahn, the Trust, Bazaar Holdings and AHL
    have agreed to guarantee completion of the Mall Project and Bazaar's
    indebtedness to the Mall Lenders until certain earnings and loan to value
    targets have been met (collectively, the "Mall Guaranty"). Investors should
    note that TrizecHahn has announced that it is considering selling its
    operating portfolio of regional shopping centers and on April 6, 1998,
    announced the sale of 20 regional shopping centers for over $2.5 billion.
    While TrizecHahn's announcement is limited to the sale of its current
    operating portfolio of regional shopping centers, there can be no assurance
    that TrizecHahn will not similarly decide to sell its interest in the Desert
    Passage. Accordingly, investors cannot be assured that TrizecHahn will own
    and operate the Desert Passage once it becomes operational, and as a result,
    pedestrian traffic to the Aladdin may decrease. See "Risk
    Factors--Completion of the Mall Project and the Music Project."
 
MANAGEMENT AND DEVELOPMENT TEAM
 
    The Complex is being developed by a team with broad expertise in each of the
elements of the Complex and which, collectively, have a proven track record in
constructing, completing and operating significant hotel casino projects.
 
    MANAGEMENT TEAM.  The management team of the Company, which will develop and
operate the Aladdin and the Music Project, comprises a unique combination of
executives with an average of more than 20 years' experience in the management
of hotels, casinos, restaurants and large real estate projects. The team
includes:

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
    No proceeds will be received by the Issuers from the Exchange Offer. The
gross proceeds from the Offering were $115.0 million. The net proceeds (net of
discounts for Initial Purchasers (as defined herein) and estimated Offering
expenses) together with the proceeds from the other Funding Transactions are
being used to develop, construct, equip and open the Aladdin and to fund the
Company's cash contribution to Aladdin Music with respect to the Music Project.
 
    Upon or prior to consummation of the Offering, (i) the proceeds from the
sale of the Units were allocated between the Old Notes and the Warrants, (ii)
Sommer Enterprises (a) contributed a portion of the Contributed Land (as defined
herein) and $7.0 million consisting of the benefit of certain predevelopment
costs incurred by AHL to Enterprises in exchange for Class A Common Stock in
Enterprises and (b) contributed a portion of the Contributed Land to Holdings in
exchange for Holdings Common Membership Interests, (iii) Enterprises contributed
the portion of the Contributed Land, the benefit of the predevelopment costs
received from Sommer Enterprises and the net proceeds allocable from the sale of
the Warrants to Holdings in exchange for Holdings Common Membership Interests
(the "Enterprises Contribution"), (iv) Holdings contributed the Contributed Land
appraised at $150.0 million, approximately $42 million in cash from the London
Clubs Contribution (as defined herein) and the $7.0 million consisting of the
benefit of certain predevelopment costs incurred by AHL to the Company in
exchange for Common Membership Interests of the Company, and (v) Holdings
contributed $115.0 million in cash, consisting of the net proceeds of the sale
of the Units and approximately $8 million from the London Clubs Contribution, to
the Company in exchange for Series A Preferred Interests of the Company ((iv)
and (v) collectively, the "Equity and Series A Preferred Interest Financing").
The London Clubs Contribution, together with a portion of the net proceeds of
the Offering, were expended on the Issue Date to repay certain existing
indebtedness assumed by the Company in connection with the Sommer Equity
Financing (as defined herein) and to pay certain accrued expenses and certain
fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Funding Transactions. The
remaining net proceeds from the Offering (approximately $35 million) were
deposited in a segregated escrow account (the "Note Construction Disbursement
Account"), which was pledged as collateral for the benefit of the holders of the
Notes, pending disbursement of such funds pursuant to the Disbursement
Agreement. The liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Interests held
by Holdings will at all times equal the Accreted Value of the Notes.
 
    Prior to or contemporaneously with the Offering, the following other
arrangements (together with the Offering, the "Funding Transactions") were
consummated for the financing by the Company of the Aladdin: (i) the
consummation of the Sommer Equity Financing and the indirect equity contribution
to Holdings by London Clubs of $50.0 million in cash (the "London Clubs
Contribution") in exchange for Holdings Common Membership Interests; (ii) the
closing of the $410.0 million Bank Credit Facility entered into by the Company
and the funding of the Term B Loan (as defined herein) and the Term C Loan (as
defined herein) thereunder into the Cash Collateral Account (as defined herein)
and (iii) delivery of the executed commitment letter entered into by the Company
for one or more leases or loans in the aggregate amount of $80.0 million,
covering the Specified Equipment and the Gaming Equipment (each as defined
herein), to be used in the Aladdin (the "FF&E Financing"). See "Controlling
Stockholders-- Equity and Series A Preferred Interest Financing," "Description
of Certain Indebtedness and Other Obligations--Bank Credit Facility" and "--FF&E

    Transactions." All of the Loans will convert from construction loans into
    amortizing loans on the Conversion Date (as defined herein), with
    substantial amounts due during the final six quarters of the Term B Loan and
    the Term C Loan. The Company has the option to pay interest at either LIBOR

                      CONSEQUENCES OF EXCHANGING OLD NOTES
                         PURSUANT TO THE EXCHANGE OFFER
 
    Generally, holders of Old Notes (other than any holder who is an "affiliate"
of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) who
exchange their Old Notes for New Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer may offer
such New Notes for resale, resell such New Notes, and otherwise transfer such
New Notes without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery
provisions of the Securities Act, PROVIDED such New Notes are acquired in the
ordinary course of the holder's business and such holders have no arrangement
with any person to participate in a distribution of such New Notes. Each
broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account in exchange for Old
Notes, where such Old Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it
will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. See
"Plan of Distribution." To comply with the securities laws of certain
jurisdictions, it may be necessary to qualify for sale or register thereunder
the New Notes prior to the offering or selling of such New Notes by such
broker-dealers. The Issuers have agreed, pursuant to the Note Registration
Rights Agreement and subject to certain specified limitations therein, to use
their reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the New Notes held by
broker-dealers for offer or sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions as any such holder of such New Notes reasonably requests in
writing. If a holder of Old Notes does not exchange such Old Notes for New Notes
pursuant to the Exchange Offer, such Old Notes will continue to be subject to
the restrictions on transfer contained in the legend thereon. In general, the
Old Notes, unless registered under the Securities Act, may not be offered or
sold, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to,
the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. See "The Exchange
Offer--Consequences of Failure to Exchange; Transfers of New Notes."

    The Old Notes are currently eligible for trading in the Private Offerings,
Resales and Trading through Automated Linkages ("PORTAL") market. Following
commencement of the Exchange Offer but prior to its consummation, the Old Notes
may continue to be traded in the PORTAL market. Following consummation of the
Exchange Offer, the New Notes will not be eligible for PORTAL trading.

maturity of Old Notes outstanding on the date hereof and does not apply to the
Units, Warrants or Warrant Shares. The terms of the New Notes are identical in
all material respects to the Old Notes except that the Old Notes (but not the
New Notes) provide that if a Registration Default has occurred, Liquidated
Damages shall accrue at a rate of 0.25% per annum with respect to the first
90-day period immediately following the occurrence of the first Registration
Default and that the amount of Liquidated Damages increases by an additional
0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all
Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of Liquidated

Issuers......................  Holdings and Capital, as joint and several obligors.
 
Maturity Date................  March 1, 2010.
 
Accreted Value and
  Interest...................  The initial Accreted Value of the Old Notes was $519.40 per
                               $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the Notes. The Notes
                               will accrete at 13 1/2% (computed on a semi-annual bond
                               equivalent basis) based on the initial Accreted Value,
                               calculated from the Issue Date. The Notes will accrete to an
                               aggregate principal amount of $221.5 million by March 1,
                               2003. Cash interest will not accrue on the Notes prior to
                               March 1, 2003. Commencing on September 1, 2003, cash
                               interest on the Notes will be payable, at a rate of 13 1/2%
                               per annum, semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September
                               1 of each year until maturity.
 
Security.....................  The Notes will be secured by a first priority pledge of the
                               proceeds deposited in the Note Construction Disbursement
                               Account and by a first priority pledge of all of the issued
                               and outstanding Series A Preferred Interests.
 
Series A Preferred
  Interests..................  On the date of the consummation of the Exchange Offer, the
                               Series A Preferred Interests will have a liquidation
                               preference of approximately $      million. The liquidation
                               preference of the Series A Preferred Interests will accrete
                               on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis using a 360 day year
                               comprised of twelve 30-day months. On March 1, 2003, the
                               liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Interests
                               will be $221.5 million. All Series A Preferred Interests
                               were issued to Holdings and pledged to the Trustee for the
                               benefit of the holders of the Notes. From and after
                               September 1, 2003, distributions on the Series A Preferred
                               Interests will be payable in cash. Holdings will be
                               obligated under the Indenture to utilize such cash
                               distributions to make payments on the Notes.
 
                               The Series A Preferred Interests will be mandatorily
                               redeemable on March 1, 2010. After March 1, 2003, the Series
                               A Preferred Interests will be redeemable at the option of
                               the Company, so long as the proceeds thereof are used by
                               Holdings to make a redemption of the Notes or an offer to
                               purchase Notes, in each case, in accordance with the terms
                               of the Indenture. See "Description of the Notes--Optional
                               Redemption" and "--Gaming Redemption." Except for the pledge
                               to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Notes,

                               foreclosure under such pledge, the Series A Preferred
                               Interests are non-transferable.
 
Optional Redemption..........  The Notes will be redeemable at the option of the Issuers,
                               in whole or in part, on or after March 1, 2003 at the
                               redemption prices set forth herein, plus accrued and unpaid
                               interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of
                               redemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or prior to
                               March 1, 2001, the Issuers may redeem up to an aggregate of
                               35% the Accreted Value of the Notes at a redemption price of
                               113 1/2% of the Accreted Value thereof, plus Liquidated
                               Damages, if any, thereon to the redemption date, with the
                               proceeds of a Qualified Public Offering resulting in
                               aggregate net proceeds of at least $50.0 million.
 
Gaming Redemption............  The Notes will be subject to mandatory disposition and
                               redemption requirements following certain determinations by
                               any Gaming Authority (as defined herein). See "Description
                               of the Notes-- Gaming Redemption."
 
Change of Control............  Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the holders of
                               the Notes will have the right to require the Issuers to
                               purchase their Notes at a price equal to 101% of the
                               Accreted Value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and
                               Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon to the date of purchase.
 
Ranking......................  The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuers and rank
                               PARI PASSU in right of payment to all current and future
                               senior Indebtedness of the Issuers and senior in right of
                               payment to all current and future subordinated Indebtedness
                               of the Issuers.
 
                               The Notes are not guaranteed by any of Holdings'
                               subsidiaries. Therefore, the Notes are effectively
                               subordinated to all Indebtedness and other liabilities of
                               Holdings' subsidiaries (including, without limitation, to
                               the Company's obligations under the Bank Credit Facility).
                               Upon consummation of the Exchange Offer, the only
                               outstanding indebtedness of the Issuers will be the Notes.
                               Upon completion of the Aladdin, the Company is expected to
                               have $430.0 million of outstanding indebtedness, including
                               $410.0 million outstanding under the Bank Credit Facility,
                               an aggregate of $20.0 million outstanding under the loan
                               portion of the FF&E Financing (excluding $60.0 million in
                               operating leases under the FF&E Financing) and the Company
                               is expected to have an aggregate of $10.0 million available
                               to be borrowed under a working capital facility.
 
Original Issue Discount......  The Notes were offered at an original issue discount for
                               federal income tax purposes. Thus, although interest will
                               not begin accruing on the Notes prior to March 1, 2003,
                               original issue discount (i.e., the difference between the
                               stated redemption price at maturity of the Notes and their
                               issue price) will accrue from the issue date of the Notes
                               and will be included as interest income periodically
                               (including for periods ending prior to March 1, 2003) in a
                               Holder's gross income for United States federal income tax
                               purposes in advance of receipt of the cash payments to which

Covenants....................  The Indenture contains certain covenants that (subject to
                               certain exceptions) restrict the ability of the Issuers and
                               certain of their subsidiaries to, among other things: (i)
                               make restricted payments; (ii) incur additional Indebtedness
                               (as defined herein) and issue preferred stock; (iii) incur
                               Liens (as defined herein); (iv) pay dividends or make other
                               distributions; (v) enter into mergers or consolidations;
                               (vi) enter into certain transactions with affiliates; or
                               (vii) enter into new lines of business.
 
Subordination of the Notes...  The holders, while free to exercise their rights and
                               remedies against Holdings, are bound under the Indenture, so
                               long as any portion of the Bank Credit Facility remains
                               outstanding, by standstill provisions prohibiting the
                               holders from initiating or intervening in an insolvency
                               proceeding of the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the holders
                               may intervene in an insolvency proceeding to the extent
                               necessary or advisable in any such insolvency proceeding to
                               file proofs of claim with respect to any Series A Preferred
                               Interests held by, or which secure obligations owing to, the
                               holders. Such provisions also specifically prohibit the
                               holders from seeking a substantive consolidation of the
                               Company.
 
                               In addition, the Indenture contains subordination provisions
                               to the effect that, in the event of a substantive
                               consolidation of the Company, Holdings and/or Capital, the
                               holders (i) will not be entitled to receive any cash or
                               other payments (other than securities subordinated to the
                               prior payment in full of the Bank Credit Facility to the
                               same extent as the Notes) in respect of the Notes until the
                               Bank Credit Facility has been indefeasibily paid in full in
                               cash and (ii) will be required to turn over to the Bank
                               Lenders any payments received in violation of such
                               provisions. Subject to such subordination and other
                               provisions, the holders will be entitled in any such
                               consolidated proceeding (other than a consolidated
                               proceeding resulting from the assertion of substantive
                               consolidation by the holders in violation of the foregoing
                               provisions) to exercise all rights available to the Holders,

                               the involvement in such proceeding by the holders and from
                               seeking an equitable subordination of the holders' claims.

                               qualifications, limitations and exceptions. The Noteholder
                               Completion Guaranty contains certain intercreditor
                               provisions which significantly limit the rights of the
                               Trustee under the Noteholder Completion Guaranty. In
                               particular, the Noteholder Completion Guaranty sets forth
                               certain standstill periods during which the Trustee and the
                               holders of the Notes may not enforce the Noteholder
                               Completion Guaranty or seek remedies thereunder even if
                               there is a default under the Bank Completion Guaranty and
                               the Bank Lenders are no longer advancing funds. In addition,
                               there are limitations and restrictions on the rights of the
                               Trustee to enforce the Noteholder Completion Guaranty,
                               particularly following any exercise of remedies by the Bank
                               Lenders. See "Risk Factors--Limitations Under Bank
                               Completion Guaranty and Noteholder Completion Guaranty" and
                               "Description of the Noteholder Completion Guaranty and
                               Disbursement Agreement--Noteholder Completion Guaranty."
 
Note Construction
  Disbursement Account.......  The proceeds from the London Clubs Contribution, together
                               with a portion of the net proceeds of the Offering were
                               expended on the Issue Date to repay certain existing
                               indebtedness assumed by the Company in connection with the
                               Sommer Equity Financing and to pay certain accrued expenses
                               and certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with
                               the Funding Transactions. The remaining net proceeds from
                               the Offering (approximately $35 million) were deposited and
                               held in the Note Construction Disbursement Account which has
                               been pledged to the Disbursement Agent for the benefit of
                               the holders of the Notes as collateral security for the
                               Notes, until disbursed. Funds will be disbursed from the
                               Note Construction Disbursement Account upon satisfaction of
                               certain conditions set forth in the Disbursement Agreement.
                               Pending disbursement from the Note Construction Disbursement
                               Account, such proceeds have been invested in cash and Cash
                               Equivalents (as defined herein).
 
Disbursement Agreement.......  On the Issue Date, Holdings, the Company, the Administrative
                               Agent, the Trustee, the Disbursement Agent, the Securities
                               Intermediary (as defined herein) and the Servicing Agent (as
                               defined herein) entered into the Disbursement Agreement. The
                               Disbursement Agreement, among other things, establishes the
                               conditions to, and sequencing of, the making of
                               disbursements of the proceeds of the Offering, the funds
                               from the Term B Loan and Term C Loan and the advances of the
                               Term A Loan. Pursuant to the Disbursement Agreement, (i) all
                               of the proceeds from the Offering must be expended before
                               any proceeds from the Term B Loan and Term C Loan may be
                               disbursed; (ii) the proceeds from the Term B Loan and the
                               Term C Loan will be disbursed pro rata; and (iii) advances
                               under the Term A Loan will only be made after all of the
                               proceeds of the Term B Loan and Term C Loan are expended.
                               The draw down of funds under the FF&E Financing will not be
                               subject to the provisions of the Disbursement Agreement. See
                               "Risk Factors--Conditions to Draw Down of Funds Under
                               Funding Transactions" and "Description of Noteholder
                               Completion Guaranty and Disbursement Agreement--Disbursement
                               Agreement."

Absence of an Established
  Trading Market for the
  Securities.................  The New Notes are new issues of securities for which there
                               is currently no established trading market. Although the
                               Initial Purchasers have informed the Issuers that they
                               currently intend to make a market in the New Notes, they are
                               not obligated to do so and any such market making may be
                               discontinued at any time without notice. Accordingly, there
                               can be no assurance as to the development or liquidity of
                               any market for any of the New Notes.
 
Qualified Public Offering....  A "Qualified Public Offering" is defined as a public
                               offering of common stock registered under the Securities Act
                               and resulting in proceeds of at least $50.0 million.
                               Enterprises, Holdings or another entity which controls the
                               Company (each, an "IPO Entity") may effect such public
                               offering so long as prior to such public offering, London
                               Clubs, the Trust, or the beneficiaries of the Trust (whether
                               current or contingent) as of the date hereof which control
                               AHL or Sommer Enterprises, and holders of the Warrants and
                               Warrant Shares each hold, directly or indirectly, their
                               respective equity interests in the IPO Entity. London Clubs,
                               the Trust, or the beneficiaries of the Trust (whether
                               current or contingent) as of the date hereof which control
                               AHL or Sommer Enterprises, and the IPO Entity will use their
                               reasonable best efforts to effect such public offering such
                               that holders of the Warrants and Warrant Shares will not
                               recognize income gain or loss for federal income tax
                               purposes (other than as a result of a sale of their Warrant
                               Shares in such public offering) and holders of the Warrants
                               and the Warrant Shares will be subject to federal income tax
                               in the same manner and at the same times as would have been
                               the case if the Warrants were originally issued by the IPO
                               Entity.

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
    PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS IN THE NEW NOTES AND HOLDERS OF OLD NOTES ARE STRONGLY
CAUTIONED THAT AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. THE
ABILITY OF THE ISSUERS AND THE COMPANY TO CAUSE THE COMPLETION OF AND TO
SUCCESSFULLY OPERATE THE ALADDIN IS SUBJECT TO AN UNUSUAL NUMBER OF MATERIAL
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THE CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER RISKS DISCUSSED BELOW COULD
AFFECT THE ISSUERS IN WAYS NOT PRESENTLY ANTICIPATED AND THEREBY MATERIALLY
AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY. A CAREFUL REVIEW AND
UNDERSTANDING OF EACH OF THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH BELOW, AS WELL AS THE OTHER
INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, IS ESSENTIAL FOR AN INVESTOR SEEKING
TO MAKE AN INFORMED INVESTMENT DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE NEW NOTES.
 
SUBSTANTIAL LEVERAGE
 
    Holdings' sole material asset is its interest in the Company. Both Holdings
and the Company have substantial leverage and so could experience difficulties
servicing indebtedness.
 
   
    The Issuers do not and may not in the future have any material assets other
than Holdings' ownership of 100% of the Common Membership Interests in the
Company and its ownership of 100% of the Series A Preferred Interests in the
Company, and do not and may not in the future have any material operations or
revenues (other than income derived from its interest in the Company).
Accordingly, the Issuers' ability to pay principal, interest, premium, if any,
or any other payment obligations on the Notes will be completely dependent on
the operations of the Company. Holdings is, and on consummation of the Exchange
Offer Holdings will continue to be highly leveraged with outstanding
Indebtedness consisting of the Notes. The Notes are not guaranteed by Holdings
or any of its subsidiaries. Therefore, any right of Holdings to receive assets
of any of its subsidiaries upon such subsidiary's liquidation or reorganization
will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary's creditors,
except to the extent, if any, that Holdings itself is recognized as a creditor
of such subsidiary, in which case the claims of Holdings would still be
subordinate to the claims of such creditors who hold security in the assets of
such subsidiary to the extent of such assets and to the claims of such creditors
who hold Indebtedness of such subsidiary senior to that held by Holdings. Upon
completion of the Aladdin, the Company will be highly leveraged with substantial
fixed debt service obligations in addition to operating expenses, and is
expected to have $430.0 million of outstanding Indebtedness, including $410.0
million outstanding under the Bank Credit Facility and an aggregate of $20.0
million outstanding under the loan portion of the FF&E Financing. Such
indebtedness, with the Notes, is expected to represent 95% of the total
capitalization of Holdings and the Company as of the opening of the Aladdin and
require annual debt service payments ranging from $58.9 million to $91.6
million, depending on the year. The FF&E Financing also consists of $60 million
of operating leases. The Company is required to pay $13.6 million in minimum
lease payments annually under the lease portion of the FF&E Financing. Upon the
opening of the Aladdin, the Company is expected to have an aggregate of $10
million available under a working capital facility. In addition, the Indenture
allows the Company to incur additional indebtedness under certain circumstances.
See "Description of the Notes--Certain Covenants." The degree to which Holdings
and the Company are leveraged could have important consequences to the holders
of the securities offered hereby, including, but not limited to, the following:
(i) increasing the Company's vulnerability to adverse general economic and
industry conditions; (ii) affecting the proportion of the Company's operating
cash flow required to pay principal, interest and other amounts on indebtedness,
thereby reducing the funds available for operations; and (iii) impairing the
Company's ability to obtain additional financing for future working capital
expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate purposes.
    
 
INABILITY TO REPAY DEBT
 
    Holdings does not have any material assets or revenues except their
interests in the Company. As a result, the ability of Holdings to meet its
obligations under the Notes will be completely dependent on the operations of
the Company.
 
    Pending the opening of the Aladdin, which is expected to occur in the first
four months of the year 2000, it is currently anticipated that the Company will
have no operations other than activities in
 
                                       20
<PAGE>
connection with the development of the Aladdin. The Issuers' ability to pay
principal, interest and other amounts payable under the Notes will be dependent
upon the successful completion of the Aladdin and the Company's future operating
performance which is dependent upon a number of factors, many of which are
outside the Company's and the Issuers' control, including the successful
completion of the Mall Project, prevailing economic conditions and financial,
business, regulatory and other factors affecting the Company's operations. If
the Company is unable to complete the Aladdin within its construction budget or,
once operating, is unable to generate sufficient cash flow, it could be required
to adopt one or more alternatives, such as obtaining additional financing to the
extent permitted by the Indenture and the Bank Credit Facility, reducing or
delaying planned construction or capital expenditures, restructuring debt or
obtaining additional equity capital. There can be no assurance that any of these
alternatives could be effected on satisfactory terms, and the inability to
acquire additional financing could materially and adversely affect the Company
and the Issuers and result in the Issuers being unable to make required payments
on its debt obligations, including the Notes.
 
    Additionally, there can be no assurance that the Aladdin will be able to
attract a sufficient number of patrons to achieve the level of activity
necessary to permit the Company and the Issuers to meet their payment
obligations in connection with the Funding Transactions and any other
indebtedness or obligations of the Company. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," "Description of the
Notes--Certain Covenants" and "Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other
Obligations."
 
CONDITIONS TO DRAW DOWN OF FUNDS UNDER FUNDING TRANSACTIONS
 
    There are significant conditions to the draw down of funds under the terms
of the various Funding Transactions. The aggregate amount of financing subject
to conditions is $524.6 million as of May 29, 1998, comprising $410 million
under the Bank Credit Facility, $6 million under the Offering and $80 million
under the FF&E Financing. Failure by the Company to meet any of these conditions
could have a material adverse effect on its ability to complete the Aladdin.
 
    Financing for the construction and development of the Aladdin and of the
other components of the Complex has been provided by multiple parties,
including, with respect to the Aladdin, the holders of the Notes, the Bank
Lenders and the FF&E Lender, and with respect to the Mall Project, the Mall
Lenders.
 
    Concurrent with the closing of the Offering, the Company and Holdings
entered into the Disbursement Agreement with the Trustee (for the benefit of the
holders of the Notes) and Scotiabank, as Administrative Agent under the Bank
Credit Facility, Disbursement Agent on behalf of the Bank Lenders and the
holders of the Notes, and as securities intermediary (the "Securities
Intermediary") and U.S. Bank National Association, as the servicing agent (the
"Servicing Agent"). Pursuant to the Disbursement Agreement, the proceeds from
the Offering of the Notes that were not expended on the Issue Date (being
approximately $35 million) were deposited in a segregated escrow account (the
"Note Construction Disbursement Account"), which was pledged to the Disbursement
Agent for the benefit of holders of the Notes. Disbursements from the Note
Construction Disbursement Account are subject to the conditions established in
the Disbursement Agreement.
 
    On the Issue Date, the proceeds of the Term B Loan and Term C Loan were
deposited in the Cash Collateral Account, which was pledged to the Disbursement
Agent for the benefit of the Bank Lenders. Disbursements from the Cash
Collateral Account and advances of the Term A Loan are also subject to
conditions established in the Disbursement Agreement. The significant conditions
on the Bank Lenders' obligations to fund or provide advances, include among
other things, (i) that all of the proceeds of the Offering have been disbursed,
(ii) the absence of any material adverse change in the financial condition,
business, property or prospects and the ability of the Company and the Project
Parties (as defined herein) to perform in all material respects their respective
obligations under the Operative Documents (as defined herein) to which they are
a party, (iii) the absence of any default or an event of default with respect to
material Operative Documents which would be reasonably likely to cause a
material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, property or
prospects of the Company or to the Company's knowledge, of the
 
                                       21
<PAGE>
Project Parties and their ability to perform in all material respects their
respective obligations under the Operative Documents to which they are a party,
(iv) there being no failure on the part of the Company to keep the Bank Credit
Facility In Balance (as defined herein), and (v) compliance by the Guarantors
(as defined herein) under the Bank Completion Guaranty and London Clubs and AHL,
as Sponsors (as defined herein), under the Keep-Well Agreement. See "Description
of the Noteholder Completion Guaranty and Disbursement Agreement--Disbursement
Agreement."
 
    The Company does not expect to draw down any funds under the Bank Credit
Facility until June 1998 (approximately four months after the Issue Date). If
the Company fails to satisfy the conditions to the draw down of funds under the
Bank Credit Facility, alternative sources of funding will need to be obtained
and/ or the Trust, Bazaar Holdings and London Clubs will be required to make
cash contributions to the Company pursuant to the Bank Completion Guaranty in
order for the Company to complete the Aladdin. The failure of the Company to
satisfy the conditions to the draw down of funds under the Bank Credit Facility
could have a material and adverse effect on the Company's ability to complete
the Aladdin and so the Issuers' ability to meet their obligations with respect
to the Notes.
 
   
    General Electric Capital Corporation (the "FF&E Lender") and the Company
have entered into an agreement to provide the $80.0 million of aggregate
financing required to acquire the Specified Equipment and Gaming Equipment. The
availability of the FF&E Financing is subject to certain conditions. If the
Company is unable to finalize the FF&E Financing for any reason, the financial
position and results of operations of the Company, and so the Issuers, could be
materially and adversely affected.
    
 
    There can be no assurance that each lender will perform its obligations or
observe the limitations on the exercise of remedies as set forth under such
agreements. Failure of any one or more of the lenders to perform under the
Disbursement Agreement could materially and adversely affect the Company, the
Issuers and holders of the Notes. In addition, financing by multiple lenders
with security interests that are interrelated by use or location of the
underlying collateral may result in increased complexity in a debt restructuring
or other workout of the Company.
 
LIMITATION ON ACCESS TO CASH FLOW OF SUBSIDIARIES; HOLDING COMPANY STRUCTURE
 
    Holdings is a holding company and its ability to pay interest on the Notes
is dependent upon distributions from the Company. The Bank Credit Facility
imposes substantial restrictions on the Company's ability to make distributions
to Holdings and, therefore, Holdings is limited in the amount which it has
available to pay principal and interest on the Notes.
 
    Holdings is a holding company, and its ability to pay interest on the Notes
is dependent upon the receipt of distributions from its direct and indirect
subsidiaries. Holdings does not have and may not in the future have any material
assets other than its ownership of 100% of the Common Membership Interests and
100% of the Series A Preferred Interests of the Company. The Notes are not
guaranteed by any of Holdings' subsidiaries. Therefore, the Notes are
effectively subordinated to all Indebtedness and other liabilities of Holdings'
subsidiaries (including, without limitation, to the Company's obligations under
the Bank Credit Facility). Additionally, any right of Holdings to receive assets
of any of its subsidiaries upon such subsidiary's liquidation or reorganization
will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary's creditors,
except to the extent, if any, that Holdings itself is recognized as a creditor
of such subsidiary, in which case the claims of Holdings would still be
subordinate to the claims of such creditors who hold security in the assets of
such subsidiary to the extent of such assets and to the claims of such creditors
who hold Indebtedness of such subsidiary senior to that held by Holdings.
 
    The Company is a party to the Bank Credit Facility which imposes substantial
restrictions, including the satisfaction of certain financial conditions, on the
Company's ability to make distributions to Holdings. The ability of the Company
to comply with such conditions in the Bank Credit Facility may be affected by
events that are beyond the control of Holdings. If the maturity of loans under
the Bank Credit Facility were to be accelerated, all indebtedness outstanding
thereunder would be required to be paid in full before the Company would be
permitted to distribute any assets or cash to Holdings. In addition, certain
remedies
 
                                       22
<PAGE>
available to the Bank Lenders under the Bank Credit Facility could constitute
events of default under the Indenture and so cause acceleration of the Notes. In
such circumstances there can be no assurance that the assets of the Company
would be sufficient to repay all of such outstanding debt and then to make
distributions to Holdings to enable Holdings to meet its obligations under the
Indenture. Future borrowings by the Company can also be expected to contain
restrictions or prohibitions on distributions by the Company to Holdings.
 
    The Holdings Operating Agreement and the Company Operating Agreement (as
defined herein) also contain restrictions on distributions on the Holdings
Common Membership Interests and the Common Membership Interests, respectively.
In particular, distributions by the Company on Common Membership Interests
(other than distributions to cover tax liability) are limited while Series A
Preferred Interests are outstanding.
 
LIMITATIONS UNDER BANK COMPLETION GUARANTY AND NOTEHOLDER COMPLETION GUARANTY
 
    The Trust, London Clubs and Bazaar Holdings have entered into a Bank
Completion Guaranty and the Noteholder Completion Guaranty for the benefit of
the Bank Lenders and the Noteholders, respectively. Failure by the parties to
perform their obligations under such agreements could result in the Aladdin not
being completed in a timely manner, or at all.
 
   
    Pursuant to the Bank Completion Guaranty, London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar
Holdings have agreed, among other things, jointly and severally to guarantee the
development, construction and equipping of the Aladdin for the benefit of the
Bank Lenders. The holders of the Notes are not a party to the Bank Completion
Guaranty, however, London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar Holdings have entered into
the Noteholder Completion Guaranty in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of
the holders of the Notes, subject to certain important qualifications,
limitations and exceptions. The Noteholder Completion Guaranty contains certain
intercreditor provisions which significantly limit the rights of the Trustee and
the holders of the Notes, including certain standstill periods during which the
Trustee and the holders of the Notes may not enforce the Noteholder Completion
Guaranty or seek remedies thereunder, even if there is a default under the Bank
Completion Guaranty and the Bank Lenders are no longer advancing funds. In
particular, the Noteholder Completion Guaranty may not be enforced unless (i) no
funds have been advanced under the Bank Credit Facility, (ii) the Bank Credit
Facility has been indefeasibly repaid in full and the Guarantors have been
completely released from their obligations under the Bank Completion Guaranty,
or (iii) a default has occurred under the Bank Completion Guaranty and the Bank
Lenders have failed to fund construction, for a period ranging from two to six
months, depending upon the amount which has been advanced under the Bank Credit
Facility at such time. See "Description of Noteholder Completion Guaranty and
Disbursement Agreement--Noteholder Completion Guaranty."
    
 
   
    The Bank Completion Guaranty entered into by London Clubs, the Trust, and
Bazaar Holdings requires that if the Company has insufficient funds available to
complete the Aladdin, London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar Holdings must
contribute cash to the Company to enable such completion, subject to certain
qualifications. The holders of Notes are not a party to the Bank Completion
Guaranty and, accordingly, none of them may enforce any rights thereunder. The
parties to the Bank Completion Guaranty have limited obligations under the Bank
Completion Guaranty until and unless the proceeds of the Funding Transactions
are, in the aggregate, insufficient to cover the construction cost increases
covered by the Bank Completion Guaranty. The Bank Completion Guaranty terminates
upon the indefeasible payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations (as
defined herein). See "Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other
Obligations--Bank Completion Guaranty."
    
 
    The existence of the standstill provisions in the Noteholder Completion
Guaranty and the restrictions on the rights of the Trustee following any
exercise of remedies by the Bank Lenders under the Loan Documents (as defined
herein) could adversely impact the ability of the Trustee to enforce the
Noteholder Completion Guaranty. There may be periods where the Noteholder
Completion Guaranty and the Bank Credit Facility are both in default, where the
holders of the Notes are not able to enforce the Noteholder Completion Guaranty.
The law governing the measure of damages and other rights and remedies available
 
                                       23
<PAGE>
under instruments such as the Noteholder Completion Guaranty is unclear, and
there may be limitations on the enforceability of the Bank Completion Guaranty
and the Noteholder Completion Guaranty due to principles of law which
occasionally have been applied by courts of law to limit remedies under
performance contracts of this type. While some recovery under the Noteholder
Completion Guaranty may be possible, the Noteholder Completion Guaranty should
not be relied upon as a guaranty of any payment under the Notes. Any inability
to enforce the Noteholder Completion Guaranty could have a material adverse
effect on the holders of the Notes.
 
    Neither the Bank Completion Guaranty nor the Noteholder Completion Guaranty
contain restrictions on the ability of the parties thereto to incur indebtedness
junior in respect of right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding
certain types of indebtedness). While such parties have informed the Company
that they believe they will be able to perform their respective obligations
thereunder, no assurance can be given that they will have available the
financial resources if they are called on under the Bank Completion Guaranty or
the Noteholder Completion Guaranty. If the Trust and Bazaar Holdings fail to
perform their obligations under the Bank Completion Guaranty or the Noteholder
Completion Guaranty, London Clubs is, in certain circumstances, entitled
(through its affiliates) to exercise equal voting power to the Trust and its
affiliates in the affairs of Holdings. If the parties under the Bank Completion
Guaranty or the Noteholder Completion Guaranty are unable to perform their
respective obligations thereunder, it may be an Event of Default under the
Indenture and the Bank Credit Facility and the Aladdin may not be completed. In
addition, should certain London Clubs specified exceptional events (a "Specified
Event") under the Bank Completion Guaranty occur, at the option of the required
lenders, such Specified Event shall constitute an event of default under the
Bank Completion Guaranty and consequently under the Bank Credit Facility, and
the Bank Lenders, without any further notice to a Guarantor, shall be entitled
to exercise all rights and remedies available under the Bank Completion Guaranty
and any other Loan Documents. See "Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other
Obligations--Bank Completion Guaranty" for a description of such Specified
Events.
 
    Certain historical financial information concerning London Clubs is included
herein to assist investors in evaluating the ability of London Clubs to perform
its obligations under the Noteholder Completion Guaranty and the Bank Completion
Guaranty. Such information has been prepared in accordance with United Kingdom
generally accepted accounting principles ("U.K. GAAP"), which principles are not
consistent with, and materially differ from, United States generally accepted
accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). With respect to the historical financial
information of London Clubs included herein, such differences relate (among
other things) to depreciation and amortization, valuation of fixed assets,
recognition of deferred taxes, accounting for employee stock options, and
accounting for pension costs. In making their investment decision, investors
should consider that if such financial information of London Clubs was restated
in accordance with U.S. GAAP, there are likely to be material differences from
such information as stated in accordance with U.K. GAAP. Such differences would
have no material effect on London Clubs' cash flows or liabilities and,
accordingly, also would have no material impact on its ability to meet its
obligations.
 
    The U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer has proposed to increase the highest
marginal rate of gaming duty (tax on casino betting profits) from 33 1/3% to
40%. If the proposed tax increase were to be enacted into law, London Clubs
could suffer a reduction of profits. The proposed tax increase is not certain to
be enacted, or if enacted, in the form in which it has been proposed.
 
   
    The Trust, which is indirectly a controlling stockholder of Enterprises,
Holdings, Capital and the Company, is a joint and several guarantor (together
with London Clubs and Bazaar Holdings) under each of the Bank Completion
Guaranty and the Noteholder Completion Guaranty. In addition, the Trust and AHL
are guarantors of all Bazaar's obligations under the Mall Financing.
Furthermore, the Trust is expected to be an obligor under a keep-well agreement
expected to be entered into with respect to the Music Project (the "Music
Keep-Well Agreement"). See "--Lack of Available Information on the Trust's,
Ability to Perform Its Obligations Under Certain Agreements."
    
 
                                       24
<PAGE>
   
    Bazaar Holdings was formed in September, 1997 and as of the Issue Date, had
no material assets, liabilities or earnings. Bazaar Holdings holds a 37.5%
membership interest in Bazaar and, as part of the Mall Financing, has provided
certain guarantees and indemnifications to the Mall Lenders. Except for the
foregoing, Bazaar Holdings has no material assets, liabilities or earnings and
is not expected to have any material assets, liabilities or earnings until the
Mall Project is completed and operating. Consequently, no financial information
regarding Bazaar Holdings has been included herein and, accordingly, purchasers
of the Notes should not rely on Bazaar Holdings' performance under the Bank
Completion Guaranty and the Noteholder Completion Guaranty when making their
investment decision.
    
 
   
LACK OF AVAILABLE INFORMATION ON THE TRUST'S ABILITY TO PERFORM ITS OBLIGATIONS
  UNDER CERTAIN AGREEMENTS
    
 
   
    Due to lack of financial information on the Trust, investors have no way of
assessing the ability of the Trust to perform its obligations under the
Noteholder Completion Guaranty and the Bank Completion Guaranty. The Trust was
formed in 1982 with the residue and remainder of the assets of the Estate of
Sigmund Sommer (the "Estate") in order to hold, manage, invest and reinvest the
assets on behalf of its beneficiaries. Historically, the Trust's financial
statements have been limited to tax basis reports required by various tax
authorities, and the Trust has never prepared financial statements on a basis
required by U.S. GAAP. The Trust holds, among other assets, direct and indirect
interests in several real estate properties in addition to those owned by the
Aladdin Parties and the Company, including certain interests that were acquired
when it was formed. Although the Trust has determined the basis of those
interests for tax reporting purposes, it never made the determinations that
would be required by U.S. GAAP as to such matters as the appropriate carrying
values of certain of the properties initially bequeathed to the Estate;
allocations of costs of certain properties to various asset categories; amounts
of additional costs of development and interest to be capitalized; amounts, if
any, related to certain long-lived assets that should have been written down;
and accruals, if any, of contingent liabilities. The Trust believes that the
complexity of these issues in relation to the Trust's circumstances means that
the preparation of financial statements for the Trust in accordance with U.S.
GAAP would be extremely difficult if not impossible. Accordingly, no such
financial statements have been prepared and purchasers of Notes should not rely
upon the Trust's performance under the Noteholder Completion Guaranty or the
Bank Completion Guaranty when making their investment decision.
    
 
RISKS OF NEW CONSTRUCTION
 
    Most large scale construction projects involve significant risks and
unforseen contingencies. As a result, the estimated cost of the Aladdin project
may exceed current projections.
 
    Major construction projects (and particularly one of the anticipated size
and scale of the Aladdin) entail significant risks, including shortages of
materials or skilled labor, unforeseen engineering, environmental and/or
geological problems, work stoppages, weather interference, unanticipated cost
increases and unavailability of construction equipment. Construction, equipment
or staffing problems or difficulties in obtaining any of the requisite licenses,
permits, allocations or authorizations from regulatory authorities could
increase the total cost, delay, or prevent the construction or opening of the
Aladdin or the other components of the Complex or otherwise affect their
respective design and features.
 
    The anticipated costs and opening dates for the Aladdin are based on
budgets, conceptual design documents (not all of which will be finalized at the
commencement of construction) and schedule estimates prepared by the Company
with the assistance of the architects and contractors described herein. See
"Business--Design and Construction Team." Under the terms of the Design/Build
Contract, the Design/Builder is responsible for all construction costs covered
by the Design/Build Contract that are in excess of the guaranteed maximum price
of $267.0 million, subject to certain qualifications. Pursuant to the Fluor
Guaranty, Fluor has made certain guarantees regarding the Design/Builder's
performance under the Design/Build Contract. However, the Design/Build Contract
provides that the guaranteed maximum price will be equitably adjusted on account
of (i) changes in the design documents at the request of the
 
                                       25
<PAGE>
Company; (ii) changes requested by the Company in the scope of the work to be
performed pursuant to the Design/Build Contract; and (iii) natural disasters,
casualties and certain other "force majeure" events beyond the reasonable
control of the Design/Builder. As a result, the actual price paid for the
construction of the Aladdin may increase. If any such events occur, the
construction costs which must be borne by the Company may increase. The
Design/Build Contract requires that all subcontractors engaged by the Design/
Builder to perform work and/or supply materials in connection with the
construction of the Aladdin post bonds, at the discretion of the Company and the
Design/Builder, guaranteeing timely completion of work and payment for all labor
and materials. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the Aladdin will
commence operations on schedule, that construction costs for the Aladdin will
not exceed budgeted amounts or that the Design/Builder will not challenge
aspects of the guaranteed maximum price. Failure to complete the Aladdin on
budget or on schedule may have a material adverse effect on the Company, and so
the Issuers. The Aladdin is expected to be completed in the first four months of
the year 2000.
 
COMPLETION OF THE MALL PROJECT AND THE MUSIC PROJECT
 
   
    There can be no assurance that the Mall Project or the Music Project will be
completed. While the Issuers believe that the Aladdin would still be viable even
without such projects, the failure of such projects to be completed could have a
material adverse effect on the Aladdin, and so Holdings and the holders of
Notes.
    
 
    A principal part of the Complex will be the Mall Project, which is comprised
of the Desert Passage and the Carpark, and the Music Project (including the
Theater). The Company's business plan assumes that the Desert Passage and the
Music Project will attract a substantial flow of pedestrian traffic to the
Casino and that the Carpark will provide essential parking facilities for both
overnight and casual guests at the Aladdin. However, the Company will neither
develop nor own the Desert Passage, the Carpark or the Music Project and the
completion of the Aladdin is not contingent on their completion. Failure of the
Mall Project or the Music Project to be developed or to become operating in a
timely manner will have a material adverse effect on the Company and the
Issuers. Investors should note that the funding arrangements for the completion
of the Music Project have not been finalized, and there can be no assurance that
such funding arrangements will be finalized at any time, or that the Mall
Project or Music Project will be completed.
 
    The Mall Project will be developed and owned by Bazaar. Bazaar is
37.5%-owned by Bazaar Holdings, which is indirectly controlled by the Trust and
therefore is an affiliate of Holdings and the Company. Bazaar Holdings and THB
have entered into an operating agreement (as amended, the "Bazaar LLC Operating
Agreement") under which each party has agreed to cooperate in the development
and operation of the Mall Project, and Bazaar Holdings, THB and THOP have
provided certain undertakings to effect the development of the Mall Project in
an agreed manner and time frame. See "Certain Material Agreements--Bazaar LLC
Operating Agreement."
 
    Bazaar and the Mall Lenders have entered into a building loan agreement for
the Mall Financing. Funding under the Mall Financing is subject to certain
conditions. If Bazaar fails to satisfy the conditions to the draw down of funds
under the Mall Financing, alternative sources of funding will need to be
obtained. TrizecHahn, THOP, the Trust, Bazaar Holdings and AHL have agreed to
guarantee the completion of the Mall Project and Bazaar's indebtedness to the
Mall Lenders pursuant to the Mall Guaranty. Neither the Company nor the Issuers
is a party to the Bazaar LLC Operating Agreement, the Mall Guaranty or the Mall
Financing and so neither the Company nor any of the Issuers may enforce or
prevent the amendment or cancellation of any of the rights or obligations
thereunder. In addition, there can be no assurance that TrizecHahn, THOP, the
Trust, Bazaar Holdings and AHL will be in a position to comply with their
obligations under the Mall Guaranty. If the Mall Project is not completed, the
Company believes that it may need to incur additional costs to complete the
construction of the Aladdin, depending on the Aladdin's stage of construction.
If the Mall Project is abandoned after the construction of certain shared
structural space has begun, the Company believes that the costs of completing
the shared structural space (which would be used as retail space) and demolition
and construction expenses necessary to convert
 
                                       26
<PAGE>
the site of the Mall Project into surface parking would be approximately $23
million (including the $14.2 million, including interest, no longer being
reimbursed by Bazaar pursuant to the Site Work Agreement).
 
    The success of the Mall Project, which is expected to be completed in the
first four months of the year 2000, will depend significantly on the skills and
experience of TrizecHahn in the management of entertainment shopping malls such
as the Mall Project. However, under the Bazaar LLC Operating Agreement,
TrizecHahn (through THB) is, in certain circumstances, entitled to dispose of
its interests in the Mall Project on or after the opening of the Mall Project.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that, after such date, TrizecHahn will
continue to manage, or hold an equity interest in, the Mall Project. In
addition, on March 5, 1998, TrizecHahn announced that it is considering the sale
of its operating portfolio of regional shopping centers and on April 6, 1998
announced the sale of 20 regional shopping centers for over $2.5 billion.
TrizecHahn has indicated that its planned sale will not include TrizecHahn's
portfolio of development projects, including the Desert Passage. Although
TrizecHahn has indicated that it will proceed with and have sufficient financial
resources to complete the Desert Passage, even if a sale of its entire operating
portfolio were to be consummated, no assurance can be made that TrizecHahn will
be in a position to satisfy its obligations under the Bazaar LLC Operating
Agreement. While TrizecHahn's announcement is limited to the sale of its current
operating portfolio of regional shopping centers, there can be no assurance that
TrizecHahn will not similarly decide to sell its interest in the Desert Passage.
Accordingly, investors cannot be assured that TrizecHahn will own and operate
the Desert Passage once it becomes operational, and as a result, pedestrian
traffic to the Aladdin may decrease.
 
    The Music Project is expected to be completed by October of the year 2000
and developed and owned by Aladdin Music. Pursuant to the London Clubs Purchase
Agreement, London Clubs, through its wholly owned subsidiary LCNI, has agreed
that so long as Aladdin Music obtains financing for the Music Project on terms
satisfactory to LCNI, and provided that certain other conditions are met,
Aladdin Music may develop and own the Music Project in accordance with the terms
described herein. If such conditions are not met, LCNI has the right to select
the method in which it will participate in the Music Project, if at all. There
can be no assurance that the conditions will be satisfied, and, if such
conditions are not satisfied, there can be no assurance that the Music Project
will proceed as described herein, or at all.
 
   
    As currently anticipated, the Company and Planet Hollywood intend to operate
the Music Project in a manner conducive to the joint achievement of the
Company's and Aladdin Music's business objectives. While the Company has signed
the Music Project Memorandum of Understanding with Planet Hollywood in
connection with the development, construction and operation of the Music
Project, final documentation for the Music Project has not been entered into,
funding for the Music Project has not yet been finalized and certain significant
matters, such as the appointment of a general contractor to construct the Music
Project, remain incomplete. In addition, certain significant economic issues
concerning Planet Hollywood's obligations in connection with the Music Project
financing are currently being negotiated between the Company and Planet
Hollywood and there can be no assurance that the Company will satisfactorily
resolve such issues. If the Mall Project is not completed, it may not be
feasible to develop the Music Project. If the Music Project is not completed,
the Company intends to apply a portion of the funds which it has allocated for
its equity contribution to Aladdin Music to the renovation of the Theater.
However, without the support of Planet Hollywood through the Music Project, the
Company may not be able to attract the same quality of performers to the Theater
as it may otherwise have been able to attract. Further, even if the Music
Project is completed, there can be no assurance that the Music Project will be
operated in a manner conducive to the achievement of the Company's business
objectives. In addition, the Music Project and its owners must receive all
required Gaming Approvals (as defined herein) from the Nevada Gaming Authorities
(as defined herein) in order to conduct gaming operations.
    
 
   
    The failure of Bazaar to complete the Mall Project would not be an Event of
Default under the Notes or the Indenture. An Event of Default would only occur
if less than 200,000 square feet of retail space (all of which retail space is
already included in the plans for the Aladdin) is built and the Issuers fail to
meet the fixed charge coverage ratio specified in the Indenture. See
"Description of the Notes--Events of Default." The Issuers believe that even if
TrizecHahn and Planet Hollywood abandoned the Mall Project
    
 
                                       27
<PAGE>
   
and the Music Project, respectively, the Issuers would, nevertheless, have
sufficient cashflow to meet such coverage ratio, there would consequently be no
Event of Default under the Notes and the Aladdin would continue to be viable.
    
 
   
    There can be no assurance (i) that Bazaar or Aladdin Music will have or
obtain sufficient funding to finance the development and operation of the Mall
Project or the Music Project, respectively; (ii) that the Desert Passage or the
Music Project will be completed; (iii) that if completed, the Desert Passage or
the Music Project will attract the number and types of customers expected by the
Company; or (iv) that if completed, the Music Project and its owners will obtain
all required Gaming Approvals or that if obtained, they will be obtained on a
timely basis. While the Issuers believe that the Aladdin would still be viable
even without the Mall Project or the Music Project, the failure of Bazaar or
Aladdin Music to develop and operate the Mall Project or the Music Project,
respectively, in the manner currently expected could materially and adversely
affect the success of the Aladdin and the financial position and results of
operations of the Company, and so the Issuers.
    
 
   
    On July 21, 1998, Planet Hollywood announced that it has retained financial
advisors in connection with a review of Planet Hollywood's financial and
strategic alternatives and is continuing with an operational plan to address
current financial and operational performance issues. There can be no assurance
that the Music Project will proceed with Planet Hollywood.
    
 
COMPLETION OF ENERGY PLANT
 
    Although the obligations of the Energy Provider to complete the Plant in
accordance with the Development Agreement are guaranteed by Unicom (as defined
herein) there can be no assurance that the Energy Provider will perform its
obligations under the Development Agreement (as defined herein) or that Unicom
will perform its obligations under the Unicom Guaranty (as defined herein).
 
    Energy will be provided to certain parts of the Complex by an energy plant
to be developed and constructed pursuant to the Development Agreement. The
Company has entered into the Development Agreement with Northwind Aladdin LLC
(the "Energy Provider") a subsidiary of UT Holdings Inc. ("UTH"). UTH is a
subsidiary of Unicom Corporation ("Unicom"). Pursuant to the Development
Agreement, the Energy Provider will develop and construct the Plant (as defined
herein) to serve the energy requirements of certain parts of the Complex. See
"Certain Material Agreements--Development Agreement." The design and
construction of the Plant will be at the sole cost and expense of the Energy
Provider, however, the Energy Provider shall not be responsible for costs in
excess of $40.0 million unless agreed to by the Energy Provider. The obligations
of the Energy Provider to complete the Plant in accordance with the Development
Agreement and in a manner capable of delivering the energy requirements of such
parts of the Complex in accordance with the Energy Service Agreement (as defined
herein) are guaranteed by the Energy Provider's ultimate parent, Unicom. Unicom
has agreed that if for any reason the Energy Provider shall fail or be unable to
punctually and fully perform or cause to be performed any of its obligations
under the Development Agreement, Unicom shall perform or cause to be performed
such obligations promptly upon demand. Unicom's obligations are limited to an
amount equal to $30.0 million (or, under certain circumstances, an amount less
than $30.0 million) and shall not be reduced until Substantial Completion (as
defined herein) of the Plant.
 
   
    There can be no assurance that the Energy Provider will perform its
obligations under the Development Agreement, or that Unicom will perform its
obligations under the Unicom Guaranty. Failure of the Energy Provider or Unicom
to perform its obligations under the Development Agreement and Unicom Guaranty
or failure of the Energy Provider to perform its obligations under the Energy
Service Agreement, could materially and adversely affect the Company, the
Issuers and holders of the securities offered hereby. In addition, the Company
may have to make alternative arrangements for the provision of energy for the
Complex. Due to the fact that a number of other energy suppliers were willing to
construct the Plant prior to the Company selecting Unicom and that the payback
period for the Plant is the period following the opening of the Aladdin, the
Company believes that such alternative arrangements for
    
 
                                       28
<PAGE>
   
completion of the Energy Project could be made. However, there can be no
assurance that such arrangements could, in fact, be made, or if made, on terms
favorable to the Company.
    
 
RISKS OF NEW VENTURE
 
    The Company is a development stage company with no prior history. Therefore,
there can be no assurance that it will be able to manage and operate a
hotel/casino on a profitable basis.
 
    Holdings' material assets are its interests in the Company. The Company is a
development stage company formed to develop and operate the Aladdin. The Company
has no history of operations and has never been involved in developing,
constructing or operating a hotel/casino project. Although certain members of
the Company's management have experience developing and operating large scale
hotels and casinos, none of these individuals has developed or operated a
development of the anticipated size of the Aladdin, and only certain of these
individuals have worked together with certain other members of the Company's
management team in developing or operating similar projects, none of such
projects being the anticipated size of the Aladdin. See "Management."
 
    The operation of the Aladdin will be subject to significant business,
economic, regulatory and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of
which will be beyond the control of the Company and the Issuers. No assurances
can be given that the Company will be able to manage the Aladdin on a profitable
basis or attract a sufficient number of guests, gaming customers and other
visitors to the Aladdin to make its various operations profitable independently
or as a whole or to enable the Issuers to pay the principal of and interest on
the Notes. The Company will need to recruit a substantial number of new
employees prior to the opening of the Aladdin at a time when other major
facilities may be approaching completion and also recruiting employees. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to recruit a sufficient number
of qualified employees. Furthermore, it is not known to what extent such
employees will be covered by collective bargaining agreements, as that will be a
determination ultimately made by such employees. See "Business--Employees."
 
    The opening and operation of the Aladdin will be contingent upon the receipt
of all regulatory licenses, permits, approvals, registrations, findings of
suitability, orders and authorizations from the Nevada Gaming Authorities (as
defined herein) (collectively, "Gaming Approvals") by the Company, Holdings and
its owners. The scope of the approvals required to construct and open the
Aladdin is extensive, and the failure to obtain or maintain such approvals could
prevent or delay the completion or opening of all or part of such facilities or
otherwise affect the design and features of the Aladdin. In particular, the
Company will be required to apply for and obtain approvals from the Nevada
Gaming Authorities with respect to the construction, design and operational
features of the Casino related to surveillance of gaming areas. In addition, the
Company will need to apply for and obtain, prior to commencement of gaming
activities at the Casino, a nonrestricted gaming license and Gaming Approvals
from the Nevada Gaming Authorities with respect to the operation of the Casino
and no assurances can be given that such Gaming Approvals will be obtained or
that if obtained, they will be obtained on a timely basis. Failure by the
Company to obtain any such Gaming Approvals could materially and adversely
affect the Company's financial position and results of operations. In connection
with the Company's receipt of Gaming Approvals, its members and their owners and
affiliates will also have to obtain applicable Gaming Approvals and no
assurances can be given that such Gaming Approvals will be obtained or if
obtained, that they will be obtained on a timely basis. See "--Government
Regulation" and "Regulation and Licensing." Capital will also be subject to
being called forward for a finding of suitability as a co-Issuer of the Notes in
the discretion of the Nevada Gaming Authorities.
 
   
LACK OF EXPERIENCE BY THE TRUST AND RELATED ENTITIES IN CASINO OPERATION AND
  DEVELOPMENT
    
 
   
    None of the Trust, AHL or Mr. Jack Sommer have had any prior experience in
the development or operation of casinos. Their experience is in the ownership
and/or development of office and apartment buildings and other real estate.
While London Clubs has substantial experience in the ownership and operation of
casinos and certain members of the Company's management have substantial
experience in
    
 
                                       29
<PAGE>
   
both the development and operation of casinos, there can be no assurance that
such experience will be sufficient to compensate for the Trust's, AHL's and Mr.
Sommer's lack of experience in the development and operation of casinos.
    
 
LACK OF DIVERSIFICATION; DEPENDENCE ON SINGLE SITE
 
    Neither the Issuers nor the Company anticipates having material assets or
operations other than their respective interests in the Aladdin. Accordingly,
they are subject to greater risks than a geographically diversified gaming
operation.
 
    The Issuers do not currently anticipate having material assets and
operations other than Holdings' interests in the Company, and the Company does
not currently anticipate having material assets and operations other than the
Aladdin and its membership interests in and advances to AMH, a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company which will own a 50% interest in the Music Project (on
a fully diluted basis) through Aladdin Music. Accordingly, the Issuers and the
Company will be subject to greater risks than a geographically diversified
gaming operation, including, but not limited to, risks related to local economic
and competitive conditions, changes in local and state governmental laws and
regulations (including changes in laws and regulations affecting gaming
operations and taxes) and natural and other disasters. The Company's, and so the
Issuers', principal sources of income following completion of the Complex will
be the Aladdin, and, to a lesser extent, fees received from Aladdin Music for
the provision of management services with respect to the Music Project.
Accordingly, the ability of the Issuers to make payments on the Notes will be
directly dependent on the success of the Aladdin and, to a lesser extent, the
Music Project.
 
ABILITY TO REALIZE ON COLLATERAL
 
    The Notes are secured by a first priority pledge of all amounts deposited in
the Note Construction Disbursement Account and by a first priority pledge of all
of the issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Interests of the Company
(collectively, the "Note Collateral"). If an Event of Default occurs with
respect to the Notes, whether prior to or after completion of construction,
there can be no assurance that the liquidation of the Note Collateral will
produce proceeds in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of or accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes.
 
    If the Company is licensed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities, any (i)
guarantees of the Notes issued by the Company or its members, (ii) hypothecation
of assets of the Company as security for the Notes and (iii) pledges of the
equity securities of the Company (including, but not limited to, Common
Membership Interests and Series A Preferred Interests) and any other Company
Licensees (as defined herein) as security for the Notes will require the
approval of the Nevada Commission (as defined herein) in order to remain
effective. An approval by the Nevada Commission of a pledge of equity securities
of a Company Licensee does not constitute approval to foreclose on such pledge.
Separate approval is required to foreclose on a pledge of equity securities of a
Company Licensee and such approval requires the licensing of the Trustee unless
such requirement is waived upon the application of the Trustee. Additionally,
any restrictions on the transfer of, and agreements not to encumber, the equity
securities of the Company and any other Company Licensee in respect of the Notes
may require the approval of the Nevada Commission in order to remain effective.
See "Regulation and Licensing."
 
CERTAIN BANKRUPTCY CONSIDERATIONS
 
CREDITOR'S RIGHTS
 
    The right of the agent appointed to hold the Note Collateral on behalf of
the holders of the Notes (the "Collateral Agent") and to repossess and dispose
of the Note Collateral upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the
Indenture is likely to be significantly impaired by applicable bankruptcy law if
a bankruptcy case were to be commenced by or against Holdings, whether by a
holder of the Notes or another creditor (including a junior creditor), prior to
such repossession and disposition. Under applicable bankruptcy law, secured
creditors, such as the holders of the Notes and the lenders under the Bank
Credit
 
                                       30
<PAGE>
Facility (which hold a pledge over the Holdings Common Membership Interests),
are automatically stayed from repossessing their security from a debtor in a
bankruptcy case, or from disposing of collateral in their possession, without
bankruptcy court approval. Moreover, applicable bankruptcy law permits the
debtor to continue to retain and use the collateral even though the debtor is in
default under the applicable debt instruments, provided that the secured
creditor is given "adequate protection." The meaning of the term "adequate
protection" may vary according to circumstances, but it is intended in general
to protect the secured creditor from diminution in the value of the collateral
as a result of the stay of repossession or disposition or any use of the
collateral by the debtor during the pendency of the bankruptcy case. "Adequate
protection" may include cash payments or the granting of additional security at
such time and in such amount as the court may determine. In view of the lack of
a precise definition of the term "adequate protection," the broad discretionary
powers of a bankruptcy court and the possible complexity of valuation issues, it
is impossible to predict how long payments under the Notes could be delayed
following commencement of a bankruptcy case, whether or when the Collateral
Agent could repossess or dispose of the Note Collateral or whether or to what
extent the holders of the Notes would be compensated for any delay in payment or
loss of value of the Note Collateral through the requirement for "adequate
protection."
 
SUBSTANTIVE CONSOLIDATION
 
    The Notes represent secured obligations of Holdings and Capital but do not
represent obligations of, and are not guaranteed by, AHL, the Company,
Enterprises, London Clubs, the Trust, or any of their affiliates (the
"Affiliated Parties"). Under the Bankruptcy Code, it is possible that if an
Affiliated Party, Holdings or Capital becomes a debtor under applicable
bankruptcy law, a bankruptcy court could order substantive consolidation of the
assets and liabilities of Holdings or Capital with those of any or all
Affiliated Parties. Substantive consolidation is an equitable, fact-based
remedy, not prescribed by statute, with respect to which the court has
considerable discretion. While the separate legal existence of Holdings and
Capital and their observance of certain formalities and operating procedures
could effectively preclude, based on the present state of the case law (i) a
finding that the assets of Holdings and Capital are property of the bankruptcy
estates of any of the Affiliated Parties and (ii) the substantive consolidation
of the assets and liabilities of Holdings and Capital with those of any
Affiliated Party, there can be no assurance that substantive consolidation would
not occur. In addition, there can be no assurance that during litigation of such
issues, delays will not occur in payments on the Notes, even if the court
ultimately rules against substantive consolidation, or that parties in interest
might determine to settle such issues to avoid the expense and delay of
litigation. If the court concludes there is substantive consolidation, however,
payments on the Notes could be delayed or reduced.
 
    The Indenture contains an agreement for the benefit of the Bank Lenders
which will provide that the Holders, while free to exercise their rights and
remedies against Holdings, will be bound, for so long as any portion of the Bank
Credit Facility is outstanding, by standstill provisions prohibiting the Holders
from initiating or intervening in an insolvency proceeding of the Company except
as may be necessary or advisable in such insolvency proceeding to file proofs of
claim with respect to the Series A Preferred Interests held by, or which secure
the obligations owing to, the Holders. Such provisions also specifically
prohibit the Holders from seeking a substantive consolidation of the Company,
Holdings and/or Capital. The Indenture also contains subordination provisions to
the effect that, in the event of a substantive consolidation of the Company,
Holdings and/or Capital, the Holders (i) will not be entitled to receive any
cash or other payments (other than securities subordinated to the prior payment
in full of the Bank Credit Facility to the same extent as the Notes) in respect
of the Notes until the Bank Credit Facility has been indefeasibly paid in full
in cash and (ii) will be required to turn over to the Bank Lenders any payments
received in violation of such provisions.

LIMITED-LIABILITY COMPANIES
 
    Holdings and the Company are limited-liability companies organized under the
laws of the State of Nevada. Limited-liability companies ("LLCs") are relatively
recent creations not only under the laws of the State of Nevada but also under
the laws of other jurisdictions. Generally stated, LLCs are intended to provide
both the limited liability of the corporate form for their members and certain
advantages of partnerships, including "pass-through" income tax treatment for
members, and thus have attributes of both corporations and partnerships. Given
their recent creation, LLCs and their members have been involved in relatively
few bankruptcy cases as debtors, and there has been little reported judicial
authority addressing bankruptcy issues as they pertain to LLCs. Moreover, the
existing judicial authority on such issues in bankruptcies of analogous entities
(e.g. partnerships) is not well settled. Consequently, a bankruptcy of Holdings
or the Company, its members or any of their affiliates, may be litigated and
decided in the absence of dispositive judicial precedent, and thus, no assurance
can be made as to any particular outcome.
 
COMPLEXITIES RELATING TO MULTIPLE SECURED LENDERS
 
    All of the Company's assets are subject to first priority liens, either to
the Bank Lenders under the Bank Credit Facility or the FF&E Lender under the
FF&E Financing. The FF&E Lender's security interests relate to assets to be used
in the Aladdin, which is pledged to the Bank Lenders. The existence of multiple
secured lenders could cause complexities in and prolong the duration of
bankruptcy proceedings or a debt restructuring of the Company, which in turn
could delay distributions to Holdings (the sole member of the Company), and so
to Noteholders.
 
RISKS UNDER DESIGN/BUILD CONTRACT AND FLUOR GUARANTY
 
    Certain obligations of the Design/Builder under the Design/Build Contract
are guaranteed by Fluor (the "Fluor Guaranty"). A default by either the
Design/Builder under the Design/Build Contract or Fluor under the Fluor Guaranty
could result in the Aladdin not being completed on schedule and have a material
adverse effect on the Company and the Issuers. If a bankruptcy case were to be
commenced voluntarily by or involuntarily against Fluor, remedies available
under the Fluor Guaranty would be limited or unavailable. The Fluor Guaranty
does not cover cost increases caused by certain acts commonly referred to as
"force majeure."
 
CHANGE OF CONTROL
 
    Upon a Change of Control, each holder of the Notes will have the right, at
such holder's option, to require the Issuers to purchase the Notes owned by such
holder at a price equal to 101% of the Accreted Value thereof plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, and Liquidated Damages, if applicable, to the date of
purchase. There can be no assurance that the Issuers will have sufficient funds
to purchase the Notes after a Change of Control. In addition, upon a change of
control of the Company (as defined in the Bank Credit Facility) all amounts
outstanding under the Bank Credit Facility will immediately become due and
payable. There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient funds
to repay the Bank Credit Facility or any other indebtedness that becomes due as
a result of such event. See "Description of the Notes--Repurchase at the Option
of Holders--Change of Control" and "Description of Certain Indebtedness and
Other Obligations--Bank Credit Facility."
 
OPERATING RESTRICTIONS
 
    The terms of the Indenture, the Bank Credit Facility and the other
agreements governing the indebtedness of the Company impose significant
operating and financial restrictions on the Company and the Issuers. Such
restrictions significantly limit or prohibit, among other things, the incurrence
of certain additional debt, distributions, transactions with affiliates of the
Company and Holdings and the sale of certain assets. These restrictions, in
combination with the degree to which the Company is leveraged, could
 
                                       32
<PAGE>
limit the ability of the Company to respond to market conditions or meet
extraordinary capital needs or could otherwise restrict corporate activities.
There can be no assurances that such restrictions will not materially and
adversely affect the ability of the Company to finance its future operations or
capital needs and the operation of its business and so the ability of the
Issuers to comply with the terms of the Indenture and the Notes. See
"Description of the Notes--Certain Covenants" and "Description of Certain
Indebtedness and Other Obligations."
 
POSSIBLE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
 
    Potential for conflicts of interest exists between the Aladdin, on the one
hand, and the other businesses to be operated on the Complex, and such conflicts
may adversely effect the Company and Holdings.
 
    The Trust is expected to hold significant interests in all of these
businesses. Mr. Jack Sommer, who is Chairman and a director of the Company and
Holdings and Mr. Ronald Dictrow, who is Executive Vice President/Secretary and a
director of the Company and Holdings, are also directors of Bazaar. In addition,
certain directors and executives of the Company and Holdings are currently and
are likely to continue to be, directors and executives of Aladdin Music, which
will develop and own the Music Project. Further, it is expected that in addition
to managing the Aladdin, the Company, or one of its affiliates, will also manage
the Music Project. The objectives for each of these businesses may at times
differ and such differences may be material. In addition, all such businesses
will share the use of certain facilities on the Complex, including vehicular and
pedestrian traffic ways, the Carpark and certain utilities (such as the Plant,
which will provide energy to the Complex). For these reasons, potential exists
for conflicts of interest, including in relation to the division of management
time between each of these businesses, splitting of costs of shared facilities
and the sharing of future business opportunities arising in connection with the
Complex. For example, certain directors of Holdings may be faced with a
potential conflict of interest arising from their interests in and relationship
with the Aladdin and the other projects on the Complex. These include the
following:
 
    - decisions to direct customers to the Aladdin, Music Project or Mall
      Project
 
    - allocations of costs and expenses relating to the REA (as defined herein)
      and Energy Services Agreement
 
    - cost allocations during construction for areas such as the Carpark, the
      Plant and pedestrian traffic ways
 
    - cost allocations for shared, general and administrative services such as
      accountancy, purchasing and warehousing, human resources, and legal
 
    To the Issuers' knowledge, there is no Nevada authority addressing the issue
of whether a person acting as a promoter owes fiduciary duties to the entity,
its owners or investors.
 
    In addition, Planet Hollywood, which is a 50% shareholder in Aladdin Music
(on a fully diluted basis) and the developer of the Music Project, is not
contractually restricted or otherwise prevented from developing other music or
entertainment theme hotel casinos in Las Vegas. The development of a competing
Planet Hollywood-owned hotel in Las Vegas could give rise to conflicts of
interest for Planet Hollywood and could materially and adversely affect the
Music Project and so Aladdin Music, the Company and the Issuers.
 
    London Clubs may have a potential conflict of interest arising from its
relationship with the Company. This includes directing clientele to its other
interests worldwide instead of the Aladdin and focusing resources on its other
projects.
 
                                       33
<PAGE>
    The Issuers believe that the agreements executed by London Clubs in
connection with the Aladdin deal with this conflict by providing London Clubs
with financial incentives which are dependent on certain financial goals being
obtained by the Company.
 
SHARED FACILITIES
 
    Because the Aladdin, the Mall Project and the Music Project will share
certain operational facilities (the "Shared Facilities"), the construction of
all such projects will include the construction of the Shared Facilities in
sizes and/or capacities that will be sufficient for all such projects together,
but are in excess of what is minimally required for the Aladdin. The Shared
Facilities will include certain shared structural space, the Strip facade and
related retail areas of the Complex. The Company will bear the full cost of
constructing the Shared Facilities. However, Bazaar will be obligated to
reimburse the Company for a portion of the construction costs related to the
Shared Facilities if the Mall Project is completed. It is estimated that
Bazaar's share of the cost of constructing the Shared Facilities will be $14.2
million, including interest. If Bazaar is unable to obtain financing for the
Mall Project, it is unlikely that Bazaar will be able to reimburse the Company
for its share of the construction costs related to the Shared Facilities
pursuant to the Site Work Agreement.
 
RISK OF NON-PERFORMANCE UNDER KEEP-WELL AGREEMENT
 
    Under the Keep-Well Agreement (as defined herein), AHL, London Clubs and
Bazaar Holdings have agreed to ensure the Company's compliance with certain
financial ratios. There can be no assurance that the parties will have
sufficient financial resources available if they are called to make payment
under the Keep-Well Agreement. Failure of any of the parties to the Keep-Well
Agreement to comply with their material obligations under the Keep-Well
Agreement could have a material and adverse affect on the Company and the
Issuers, and will constitute a default under the Indenture and the Bank Credit
Facility.
 
    AHL, London Clubs and Bazaar Holdings have agreed pursuant to an agreement
(the "Keep-Well Agreement") to contribute funds to the Company to ensure the
Company's compliance with certain financial ratios and other requirements under
the Bank Credit Facility, subject to certain conditions. The holders of the
Notes are not party to the Keep-Well Agreement. The Keep-Well Agreement does not
constitute a guaranty of the obligations of the Company under the Bank Credit
Facility, the Notes or otherwise. In particular, under the Keep-Well Agreement,
the parties to the Keep-Well Agreement are not required to contribute an
aggregate of more than $150.0 million to the Company ($30.0 million in any
fiscal year), and are not required to contribute any amounts to the Company on
or after the earlier of the date on which the Company, without the benefit of
cash contributions from the Controlling Stockholders or their affiliates,
complies with all of the financial covenants set forth in the Bank Credit
Facility for six consecutive quarterly periods from and after the Conversion
Date (as defined herein) or the date on which the aggregate outstanding
principal amounts of the Bank Credit Facility are reduced below certain amounts
and prior to certain dates.
 
    While the parties to the Keep-Well Agreement have informed the Company that
they believe they will be able to perform their obligations under the Keep-Well
Agreement, no assurance can be given that they will have available sufficient
financial resources if they are called on to make payments under the Keep-Well
Agreement. The obligations of London Clubs under the Keep-Well Agreement are
subordinated to other obligations of London Clubs under certain of its
pre-existing senior debt facilities. Furthermore, although the obligations of
London Clubs under the Keep-Well Agreement are guaranteed by certain
subsidiaries of London Clubs, such subsidiaries also currently guarantee senior
existing indebtedness of London Clubs. In addition, there are certain
restrictions on each of the parties' to the Keep-Well Agreement ability to incur
indebtedness or sell or transfer assets. If a party defaults in its obligations
under the Keep-Well Agreement, such party's (or its affiliate's) interest in
Holdings could be subject to dilution, which dilution could affect that party's
(or its affiliate's) ability to control or direct the policies of Holdings and
so the Company. Failure of each of the parties to the Keep-Well Agreement to
comply with their
 
                                       34
<PAGE>
material obligations under the Keep-Well Agreement could have a material and
adverse effect on the Company and the Issuers, and will constitute a default
under the Indenture. The payments and issuance of additional securities will be
subject to the prior approval of the Nevada Gaming Authorities. See "Controlling
Stockholders--Keep-Well Agreement."
 
    Certain historical financial information concerning London Clubs is included
herein to assist investors in evaluating the ability of London Clubs to perform
its obligations under the Keep-Well Agreement. Such information has been
prepared in accordance with United Kingdom generally accepted accounting
principles ("U.K. GAAP"), which principles are not consistent with, and
materially differ from, United States generally accepted accounting principles
("U.S. GAAP"). With respect to the historical financial information of London
Clubs included herein, such differences relate (among other things) to
depreciation and amortization, valuation of fixed assets, recognition of
deferred taxes, accounting for employee stock options, and accounting for
pension costs. In making their investment decision, investors should consider
that if such financial information of London Clubs was restated in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, there are likely to be material differences from such
information as stated in accordance with U.K. GAAP. Such differences would have
no material effect on London Clubs' cash flows or liabilities and, accordingly,
also would have no material impact on its ability to meet its obligations.
 
    The U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer has proposed to increase the highest
marginal rate of gaming duty (tax on casino betting profits) from 33 1/3% to
40%. If the proposed tax increase were to be enacted into law, London Clubs
could suffer a reduction of profits. The proposed tax increase is not certain to
be enacted, or if enacted, in the form in which it has been proposed.
 
    The Trust, which is indirectly a controlling stockholder of Enterprises,
Holdings, Capital and the Company, is a joint and several guarantor (together
with London Clubs and Bazaar Holdings) under each of the Bank Completion
Guaranty and the Noteholder Completion Guaranty. In addition, the Trust and AHL
are guarantors of all Bazaar's obligations under the Mall Financing.
Furthermore, the Trust is expected to be an obligor under a keep-well agreement
expected to be entered into with respect to the Music Project (the "Music
Keep-Well Agreement"). No financial information regarding the Trust is publicly
available for the purpose of evaluating the Trust's creditworthiness and,
accordingly, purchasers of Notes should not rely upon the Trust's performance
under the Bank Completion Guaranty or the Noteholder Completion Guaranty when
making their investment decision.
 
DEPENDENCE UPON KEY MANAGEMENT AND LACK OF EXPERIENCED PERSONNEL
 
    The Company is dependent to a large extent on the services of its senior
management. There can be no assurance that such individuals will remain with the
Company, and if such members of senior management do not remain with the
Company, the Company will be required to hire individuals with adequate
experience to replace such members of management on comparable terms, and no
assurances can be made as to the Company's ability to do so.
 
    The ability of the Company to maintain its competitive position is dependent
to a large degree on its ability to retain the services of its senior management
team, including Jack Sommer, Richard Goeglein and James McKennon. Although
certain of the senior managers of the Company have employment agreements with
the Company, there can be no assurance that such individuals will remain with
the Company. The loss of the services of any of these individuals or an
inability to attract and retain additional senior management personnel could
have a material adverse effect on the operation of the Aladdin. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to retain its existing senior management
personnel or to attract additional qualified senior management personnel. See
"Management."
 
    Until construction of the Aladdin is close to completion, the Company
believes that it will not require extensive operational management and,
accordingly, has kept and intends to keep its permanent staff at relatively
minimal levels. However, the Company will be required to undertake a major
recruiting and training program prior to the opening of the Aladdin at a time
when other major new facilities may be
 
                                       35
<PAGE>
approaching completion and also recruiting employees. While the Company believes
that it will be able to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified
individuals to operate the Aladdin on acceptable terms, the pool of experienced
gaming and other personnel is limited and competition to recruit and retain
gaming and other personnel is likely to intensify as more casinos are opened. No
assurance can be given that such employees will be available to the Company for
use in managing the Aladdin.
 
RISK OF OVERCAPACITY; COMPETITION AND PLANNED CONSTRUCTION IN LAS VEGAS
 
    Construction of several new major resort projects could lead to increased
competition and overcapacity in the Las Vegas hotel/casino market. As a result
the operations and profitability of the Company could be materially and
adversely affected.
 
    The hotel/casino industry is highly competitive. Hotels located on or near
the Strip ("Strip Hotels") compete with other Strip Hotels and with other major
hotels in downtown Las Vegas. The Aladdin will also compete with a large number
of other hotels and motels located in and near Las Vegas. According to the Las
Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (the "LVCVA"), as of December 31, 1997,
there were 105,347 hotel and motel rooms in the Las Vegas area. Direct
competitors of the Company will include theme-oriented mega-resorts on the Strip
such as Caesars Palace Hotel, The Mirage, Treasure Island Hotel and Casino, New
York-New York Hotel and Casino and the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino. Many
competitors of the Company are subsidiaries or divisions of large public
companies and may have greater financial and other resources than the Company.
In addition, the construction of several new major resort projects that will
compete with the Company and the expansion of several existing resorts have
commenced construction or have recently been announced. These include the
planned Bellagio, Paris Casino Resort, Mandalay Bay and Venetian Casino Resort,
all currently under construction. Additionally, expansions have recently been
completed at Caesars Palace Hotel and Harrah's Las Vegas. These projects and
others are expected to add approximately 20,000 hotel rooms to the Las Vegas
inventory by 1999. According to the LVCVA, the number of rooms in Las Vegas rose
to over 105,000 in 1997, a gain of 6.3%, while the number of visitors rose only
by 2.8% to approximately 30 million. Accordingly, while hotel occupancy rates
currently stand at 90.3%, a comparison with hotel occupancy rates from 1994
shows only a slight increase. The future operating results of the Company, and
so the Issuers, could be materially and adversely affected by such competitors
and excess Las Vegas room and gaming capacity. Such competition and increased
supply with steady visitor counts has affected and may continue to affect room
prices, occupancy rates and profits.
 
    The hotel/casino operations of the Company will also compete, to some
extent, with other hotel/casino facilities in Nevada and in Atlantic City, with
hotel/casino facilities elsewhere in the world and with state lotteries. In
addition, certain states have recently legalized, and others may or are likely
to legalize, casino gaming in specific areas, and passage of the Indian Gaming
Regulatory Act in 1988 has led to rapid increases in American Indian gaming
operations. The Company expects many competitors to enter such new jurisdictions
that authorize gaming, some of which competitors may have greater financial and
other resources than the Company and the legalization of casino gaming in or
near any metropolitan area from which the Company intends to attract customers
could have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company. Although
the Company is unaware of any particular legislation to legalize casino gaming
in or near metropolitan areas from which it could attract customers, such
proliferation of gaming activities could significantly and adversely affect the
business of the Company, and so the Issuers. See "Business--The Las Vegas
Market."
 
    The Desert Passage will compete with retail malls in or near Las Vegas,
including the Fashion Show Mall, the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace and retailers
in theme-oriented mega resorts, all of which may attract consumers away from the
Desert Passage and so the Complex.
 
                                       36
<PAGE>
CONTROLLING STOCKHOLDERS
 
    AHL owns 98.7% of the common membership interests of Sommer Enterprises, a
Nevada limited-liability company. The Holdings Common Membership Interests are
held approximately 47.0% by Sommer Enterprises, 25.0% by Enterprises (which is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Sommer Enterprises), 25.0% by LCNI and the remaining
3.0% by GAI, LLC ("GAI"), a Nevada limited-liability company 100% beneficially
owned by Richard J. Goeglein, the Chief Executive Officer and a director of the
Company. Accordingly, AHL, through Sommer Enterprises, indirectly owns
approximately 71.1% of the Holdings Common Membership Interests. In addition,
London Clubs, through LCNI, owns 25% of the Holdings Common Membership
Interests. Accordingly, AHL and London Clubs (the "Controlling Stockholders")
control the business, policies and affairs of Holdings, and so the Company,
including the election of directors and managers and major corporate
transactions of the Company. It is expected that even if all the Warrants issued
in connection with the Offering are exercised, the Controlling Stockholders will
nevertheless continue to retain control of Holdings, and so the Company.
 
    Under the Holdings Operating Agreement, if the Trust fails to make its
required 75% contribution for any amounts required to be made under the Bank
Completion Guaranty, LCNI (rather than Sommer Enterprises through Enterprises)
will have certain rights to control the Board of Managers of Holdings and LCNI
and Sommer Enterprises will each have equal direct or indirect voting rights in
deciding matters with respect to Holdings. Furthermore, if AHL fails to make its
required 75% contributions for any amounts required to be made under the
Keep-Well Agreement, LCNI (in addition to any rights London Clubs may have
against AHL and Sommer Enterprises, which may include the ability of London
Clubs to obtain ownership of Sommer Enterprises' equity interests in Aladdin
Enterprises) through Enterprises or otherwise will have the right to control the
Board of Managers of Holdings and increase its Holdings Common Membership
Interests up to a total of 72% of the Holdings Common Membership Interests and
Sommer Enterprises' Holdings Common Membership Interests will correspondingly
decrease, subject to receipt of Gaming Approvals. For a description of certain
relationships between the Company, AHL and LCNI, see "Controlling Stockholders"
and "Certain Transactions."
 
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
    The gaming operations of the Aladdin and ownership of securities of the
Issuers will be subject to extensive regulation and discretionary oversight by
the Nevada Gaming Authorities. Changes in regulations or the denial or
revocation of a Gaming Approval could have a material adverse effect on the
Company and the Issuers.
 
    The gaming operations and the ownership of securities of the Company,
Holdings and their affiliates will be subject to extensive regulation by the
Nevada Gaming Authorities. The Nevada Gaming Authorities will have broad
authority with respect to licensing and registration of entities and individuals
involved with the Company and the Issuers, including the holders of the Notes.
 
    The Company and the Issuers may be required to disclose the identities of
the holders of the Notes to the Nevada Gaming Authorities upon request. The
Nevada Commission may, in its discretion, require the holder of any debt
security of a Registered Company (as defined herein), such as the Notes, to file
an application, be investigated and be found suitable to own the debt security
of a Registered Company. If the Nevada Commission determines that a person is
unsuitable to own such security, then pursuant to the Nevada Act (as defined
herein), the Registered Company can be sanctioned, including the loss of its
approvals if, without the prior approval of the Nevada Commission, it: (i) pays
to the unsuitable person any dividend, interest, or any distribution whatsoever;
(ii) recognizes any voting right by such unsuitable person in connection with
such securities; (iii) pays the unsuitable person remuneration in any form, or
(iv) makes any payment to the unsuitable person by way of principal, redemption,
conversion, exchange, liquidation, or similar transaction.
 
    Each holder of the Notes shall be deemed to have agreed (to the extent
permitted by law) that if the Nevada Gaming Authorities determine that a holder
or beneficial owner of the Notes must be found suitable (whether as a result of
a foreclosure of the Casino or for any other reason), and if such holder or
 
                                       37
<PAGE>
beneficial owner either refuses to file an application or is found unsuitable,
such holder shall, upon request of the Issuers, dispose of such holder's Notes
within 30 days after receipt of such request or such earlier date as may be
ordered by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. The Issuers will also have the right
to call for the redemption of the Notes by any holder at any time to prevent the
loss or impairment of a Gaming Approval or an application for a Gaming Approval,
at a redemption price equal to the lesser of (i) the cost paid by such holder or
(ii) 100% of the aggregate Accreted Value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the earlier of the date of redemption and the date of the
finding of unsuitability.
 
    The Nevada Gaming Authorities may also, among other things, revoke the
license of any entity licensed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities (a "Company
Licensee") or the registration of a Registered Company (as defined herein) or
any entity registered as an intermediary company or a holding company of a
Company Licensee. In addition, the Nevada Gaming Authorities may revoke the
license or finding of suitability of any officer, director, manager, member,
controlling person, shareholder, noteholder or key employee of a licensed or
registered entity. If Gaming Approvals of the Company or Holdings were revoked
for any reason, the Nevada Gaming Authorities could require the closing of the
Casino, which would result in a material adverse effect on the Company and the
Issuers. The Company, and certain of its officers, directors, manager, members
and key employees, have applied for licensing with the Nevada Gaming
Authorities. Also, the Company possesses or has applied for all necessary state
and local government approvals, licenses and permits, other than Gaming
Approvals, necessary to open and operate the facility.
 
    In addition, any future public offering of debt or equity securities by the
Company, the Issuers or Enterprises, including the Exchange Offer, any Qualified
Public Offering and the issuance of Common Stock of Enterprises upon the
exercise of the Warrants, if the securities or the proceeds from the sale
thereof are intended to be used to pay for construction of, or to acquire an
interest in, any gaming facilities in Nevada, to finance the gaming operations
of an affiliated company or to retire or extend obligations incurred for any
such purpose, requires the prior approval of the Nevada Commission, or a ruling
from the Chairman of Nevada Board (as defined herein) that such approval is not
required. See "Regulation and Licensing" and "Description of the
Notes--Redemption."
 
LACK OF PUBLIC MARKET FOR THE NEW NOTES
 
    There are currently no trading markets for the New Notes. Therefore there
can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any such trading market, if a trading
market were to develop, or that a trading market for such securities will
develop at all.
 
    The issuance of the New Notes is a new issue of securities for which there
is currently no trading market. There can be no assurance regarding the future
development of a market for the New Notes, or the ability of the holders of the
New Notes to sell such securities, or the price at which such holders may be
able to sell such securities. If such a market were to develop, the New Notes
could trade at prices that may be higher or lower than the initial offering
price depending on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, the
Issuers' operating results and the market for similar securities. Each of the
Initial Purchasers has advised the Issuers that it currently intends to make a
market in the New Notes. However, the Initial Purchasers are not obligated to do
so and any market making in respect to such securities may be discontinued at
any time without notice. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to the
liquidity of any trading market for the New Notes or that an active trading
market for such securities will develop. The Issuers do not intend to apply for
listing or quotation of the New Notes on any securities exchange or stock
market.
 
    Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to
disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of such
securities. There can be no assurance that the market for the New Notes will not
be subject to similar disruptions. Any such disruptions may have an adverse
effect on holders of such securities.
 
                                       38
<PAGE>
ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT; LIMITATIONS ON HOLDERS' CLAIMS
 
    The New Notes will be issued at a substantial original issue discount from
their principal amount at maturity. Consequently, holders of the New Notes will
be required to include amounts in gross income for federal income tax purposes
in advance of receipt of the cash payments to which the income is attributable.
See "Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" for a more
detailed discussion of the federal income tax consequences to the Holders of the
New Notes resulting from the purchase, ownership or disposition thereof.
 
    Under the Indenture, in the event of an acceleration of the maturity of the
Notes upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, holders of the Notes may be
entitled to recover only the amount which may be declared due and payable
pursuant to the Indenture, which could be less than the principal amount at
maturity of such Notes. See "Description of the Notes--Events of Default."
 
    If a bankruptcy case is commenced by or against Holdings under the
Bankruptcy Code, the claim of a Holder with respect to the principal amount
thereof may be limited to an amount equal to the sum of (i) the issue price of
the Notes as set forth on the cover page hereof and (ii) that portion of the
original issue discount (as determined on the basis of such issue price) which
is not deemed to constitute "unmatured interest" for purposes of the Bankruptcy
Code. Accordingly, under such circumstances, even if sufficient funds are
available, Holders may receive a lesser amount than they may otherwise be
entitled to under the express terms of the Indenture. In addition, the same
rules as those used for the calculation of original issue discount under federal
income tax law could apply in a bankruptcy to determine a Holder's claim.
Furthermore, a Holder might be required to recognize gain or loss in the event
of a distribution related to such a bankruptcy case. See "Certain United States
Federal Income Tax Considerations--Tax Treatment of the Notes--Disposition."
 
ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO ADHERE TO EXCHANGE OFFER PROCEDURES
 
    Issuance of the New Notes in exchange for Old Notes pursuant to the Exchange
Offer will be made only after a timely receipt by the Exchange Agent of such Old
Notes, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and all
other required documents. Therefore, holders of Old Notes desiring to tender
such Old Notes in exchange for New Notes should allow sufficient time to ensure
timely delivery. Neither the Issuers nor the Exchange Agent are under any duty
to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to the tenders of
Old Notes for exchange. Old Notes that are not tendered or are tendered but not
accepted will, following the consummation of the Exchange Offer, continue to be
subject to the existing restrictions upon transfer thereof and, upon
consummation of the Exchange Offer, certain registration rights under the Note
Registration Rights Agreement will terminate. See "The Exchange
Offer--Consequences of Failure to Exchange; Resales of New Notes."
 
RECEIPT OF RESTRICTED SECURITIES UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES
 
    Any holder of Old Notes who tenders in the Exchange Offer for the purpose of
participating in a distribution of the New Notes may be deemed to have received
restricted securities and, if so, will be required to comply with the
registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in
connection with any resale transaction. See "The Exchange Offer--Consequences of
Failure to Exchange; Resales of New Notes."
 
ADVERSE EFFECT ON MARKET FOR OLD NOTES
 
    To the extent that Old Notes are tendered and accepted in the Exchange
Offer, the trading market for the untendered and tendered but unaccepted Old
Notes could be adversely affected. See "The Exchange Offer."

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
    No proceeds will be received by the Issuers from the Exchange Offer. The
gross proceeds from the sale of the Units in the Offering were $115.0 million.
The net proceeds (net of Initial Purchasers' discounts and estimated Offering
expenses) together with the proceeds from the other Funding Transactions are
being used to develop, construct, equip and open the Aladdin and to fund the
Company's cash contribution to Aladdin Music with respect to the Music Project.
 
    Upon or prior to the consummation of the Offering (i) the proceeds from the
sale of the Units were allocated between the Notes and the Warrants, (ii) Sommer
Enterprises (a) contributed a portion of the Contributed Land and $7.0 million
consisting of the benefit of certain predevelopment costs incurred by AHL to
Enterprises in exchange for Class A Common Stock in Enterprises and (b)
contributed a portion of the Contributed Land to Holdings in exchange for
Holdings Common Membership Interests, (iii) Enterprises contributed the portion
of the Contributed Land and the benefit of the predevelopment costs received
from Sommer Enterprises and the net proceeds allocable from the sale of the
Warrants to Holdings in exchange for Holdings Common Membership Interests, (iv)
Holdings contributed the Contributed Land appraised at $150.0 million,
approximately $42 million in cash from the London Clubs Contribution and the
$7.0 million consisting of the benefit of certain predevelopment costs incurred
by AHL to the Company in exchange for Common Membership Interests of the
Company, and (v) Holdings contributed $115.0 million in cash, consisting of the
net proceeds of the sale of the Units and approximately $8 million from the
London Clubs Contribution, to the Company in exchange for Series A Preferred
Interests of the Company. The London Clubs Contribution, together with a portion
of the net proceeds of the Offering, were expended on the Issue Date to repay
certain existing indebtedness assumed by the Company in connection with the
Sommer Equity Financing and to pay certain accrued expenses and certain fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the Funding Transactions. The remaining net
proceeds from the Offering (approximately $35 million) were deposited in the
Note Construction Disbursement Account. The liquidation preference of the Series
A Preferred Interests held by Holdings will equal at all times the Accreted
Value of the Notes.
 
    Prior to or contemporaneously with the Offering, the following other Funding
Transactions for the financing by the Company of the Aladdin were consummated:
(i) the Sommer Equity Financing and an indirect equity contribution to Holdings
by London Clubs of $50.0 million in cash in exchange for Holdings Common
Membership Interests; (ii) the closing of the $410.0 million Bank Credit
Facility and the funding of the Term B Loan and the Term C Loan thereunder into
the Cash Collateral Account and (iii) a commitment letter for the FF&E
Financing, consisting of one or more leases or loans in the aggregate amount of
$80.0 million, covering the Specified Equipment and the Gaming Equipment, to be
used in the Aladdin. See "Controlling Stockholders--Equity and Series A
Preferred Interest Financing," "Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other
Obligations--Bank Credit Facility" and "--FF&E Financing."

    The Issuers hereby offer, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Prospectus and in the accompanying Letter of Transmittal (which
together constitute the Exchange Offer), to exchange Old Notes properly tendered
on or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn as permitted pursuant to
the procedures described below for New Notes. The Exchange Offer is being made
with respect to all of the Old Notes, provided the total aggregate principal
amount of Old Notes and New Notes will in no event exceed $221.5 million at
maturity.
 
    This Prospectus, together with the Letter of Transmittal, is first being
sent on or about             , 1998 to all holders of Old Notes known to the
Issuers. The Issuers' obligation to accept Old Notes for exchange pursuant to
the Exchange Offer is subject to certain conditions as set forth under
"--Conditions to the Exchange Offer" below.
 
PURPOSE OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER
 
    The Old Notes were issued by the Issuers on February 26, 1998 in
transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
Accordingly, the Old Notes may not be reoffered, resold, or otherwise
transferred in the United States unless so registered or unless an applicable
exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act is available.
 
    In connection with the issuance and sale of the Old Notes, the Issuers
entered into the Note Registration Rights Agreement (the "Note Registration
Rights Agreement") among the Issuers and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated, Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, CIBC Oppenheimer Corp. and
Scotia Capital Markets (USA) Inc. (collectively, the "Initial Purchasers"),
which requires the Issuers, among other things, to (x) file on or before April
12, 1998 (45 days after the Issue Date) a registration statement relating to the
Exchange Offer (the "Exchange Offer Registration Statement") and (y) use their
reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration to become
effective on or before July 26, 1998 (150 days after the Issue Date). The Note
Registration Rights Agreement requires the Issuers, under certain circumstances,
to provide a shelf registration statement (the "Shelf Registration Statement")
to cover resales of the Notes by the holders thereof and to keep such shelf
registration statement effective until two years after the date of original
issuance of the Notes or such other period of time as provided in the Note
Registration Rights Agreement. If (i) the Issuers fail to cause the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement to become effective within 150 days of the Issue
Date, (ii) the Issuers are obligated to provide a Shelf Registration Statement
and such Shelf Registration Statement is not filed within 45 days after such
obligation arises or declared effective prior to the later of (x) 150 days after
the Issue Date and (y) 90 days after such obligation arises, (iii) subject to
certain exceptions, the Issuers fail to consummate the Exchange Offer within 30
business days of the effectiveness target date or (iv) the Shelf Registration
Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective but
shall thereafter cease to be effective or usable in connection with resales of
the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in the Note Registration Rights
Agreement), for the periods specified in the Note Registration Rights Agreement
(each event referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) above a "Registration
Default"), then the Issuers agree that Liquidated Damages shall accrue on the
accreted value of the Transfer Restricted Securities for any period during which
a Registration Default exists and remains uncured, with respect to the first
90-day period following such Registration Default, at a rate equal to 0.25% per
annum. The amount of such Liquidated Damages will increase by an additional
0.25% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period until such Registration
Default has been cured, up to a maximum of 1.0% per annum on the accreted value
of the Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities. The Exchange Offer is
being made by the Issuers to satisfy their obligations with respect to the Note
Registration Rights Agreement.
 
                                       43
<PAGE>
    Based on no-action letters issued by the staff of the Commission to third
parties in unrelated transactions, the Issuers believe that the New Notes issued
pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise
transferred by holders thereof (other than (i) any such holder that is an
"affiliate" of either of the Issuers within the meaning of Rule 405 under the
Securities Act or (ii) any broker-dealer that purchases Notes from the Issuers
to resell pursuant to Rule 144A or any other available exemption) without
compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act, provided that such New Notes are acquired in the ordinary course
of such holders' business and such holders have no arrangement or understanding
with any person to participate in the distribution of such New Notes and are not
participating in, and do not intend to participate in, the distribution of such
New Notes. Any holder of Old Notes who tenders in the Exchange Offer for the
purpose of participating in a distribution of the New Notes may be deemed to
have received restricted securities and, if so, will be required to comply with
the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in
connection with a secondary resale transaction. Thus, any New Notes acquired by
such holders will not be freely transferable except in compliance with the
Securities Act. See "--Consequences of Failure to Exchange; Resale of New
Notes."
 
EXPIRATION DATE; EXTENSION; TERMINATION; AMENDMENT
 
    The Exchange Offer will expire at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on
            , 1998 unless the Issuers, in their sole discretion, have extended
the period of time for which the Exchange Offer is open (such date, as it may be
extended, is referred to herein as the "Expiration Date"). The Expiration Date
will be at least 30 calendar days after the commencement of the Exchange Offer
in accordance with the Note Registration Rights Agreement. The Issuers expressly
reserve the right, at any time or from time to time, to extend the period of
time during which the Exchange Offer is open for a twenty day period after the
initial expiration date and thereby delay acceptance for exchange of any Old
Notes, by giving notice to the Exchange Agent and to the holders thereof. During
any such extension, all Old Notes previously tendered will remain subject to the
Exchange Offer unless properly withdrawn.
 
    In addition, the Issuers expressly reserve the right to terminate or amend
the Exchange Offer and not to accept for exchange any Old Notes not theretofore
accepted for exchange upon the occurrence of any of the events specified below
under "--Conditions to the Exchange Offer." If any such termination or amendment
occurs, the Issuers will notify the Exchange Agent and the holders of the Old
Notes as promptly as practicable.
 
   
    Investors are advised that in the event that the Issuers decide to amend the
Exchange Offer, the Exchange Offer would, in the Commission's view, be required
to remain open for a minimum of five business days and up to ten business days
following the date of the amendment, the actual time period to depend on the
materiality of the amendment.
    
 
PROCEDURES FOR TENDERING OLD NOTES
 
    The tender to the Issuers of Old Notes by a holder thereof as set forth
below and the acceptance thereof by the Issuers will constitute a binding
agreement between the tendering holder and the Issuers upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in this Prospectus and in the accompanying
Letter of Transmittal.
 
    A holder of Old Notes may tender the same by (i) properly completing and
signing the Letter of Transmittal or a facsimile thereof (all references in this
Prospectus to the Letter of Transmittal shall be deemed to include a facsimile
thereof) or an Agent's Message and delivering the same, together with the
certificate or certificates representing the Old Notes being tendered and any
required signature guarantees, to the Exchange Agent at its address set forth
below on or prior to the Expiration Date (or complying with the procedure for
book-entry transfer described below) or (ii) complying with the guaranteed
delivery procedures described below. As used herein, the term "Agent Message"
means a message, transmitted by
 
                                       44
<PAGE>
the book-entry transfer facility of the Depository Trust Company (the
"Depositary") to, and received by, the Exchange Agent and forming a part of a
Book-Entry Confirmation, which states that such book-entry transfer facility has
received an express acknowledgement from the participant in such book-entry
transfer facility tendering Old Notes which are the subject of such Book-Entry
Confirmation that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the
terms of the Letter of Transmittal, and that the Issuers may enforce such
agreement against such participant. The term "Book-Entry Confirmation" means a
timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of Old Notes to the Exchange Agent's
Account at the book-entry transfer facility.
 
    The method of delivery of Old Notes, Letters of Transmittal and all other
required documents is at the election and risk of the holders. If such delivery
is by mail, it is recommended that registered mail properly insured, with return
receipt requested, be used. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to
insure timely delivery. No Old Notes or Letters of Transmittal should be sent to
the Issuers.
 
    Signatures on a Letter of Transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the case
may be, must be guaranteed unless the Old Notes surrendered for exchange
pursuant thereto and are tendered (i) by a registered holder of the Old Notes
who has not completed the box entitled "Special Issuance Instructions" or
"Special Delivery Instructions" on the Letter of Transmittal or (ii) for the
account of an Eligible Institution (as defined below). In the event that
signatures on a Letter of Transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the case may
be, are required to be guaranteed, such guarantees must be by a firm which is a
member of a registered national securities exchange or a member of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or by a clearing agency, an insured
credit union, a savings association or a commercial bank or trust company having
an office or correspondent in the United States (collectively, "Eligible
Institutions"). If Old Notes are registered in the name of a person other than a
signer of the Letter of Transmittal, the Old Notes surrendered for exchange must
be endorsed by, or be accompanied by, a written instrument or instruments of
transfer or exchange, in satisfactory form as determined by the Issuers in their
sole discretion, duly executed by the registered holder with the signature
thereon guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.
 
    Any financial institution that is a participant in the Depositary's
Book-Entry Transfer Facility system may make book-entry delivery of the Old
Notes by causing the Depositary to transfer such Old Notes into the Exchange
Agent's account in accordance with the Depositary's procedures for such
transfer. However, in connection with a book-entry transfer, a Letter of
Transmittal need not be transmitted to the Exchange Agent and manually executed,
if delivery of the New Notes is to be made by book-entry transfer to the account
maintained by the Exchange Agent at the Depositary; provided, however, that the
book-entry transfer procedure must be complied with prior to 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the Expiration Date and tenders of the Old Notes must be effected
in accordance with the procedures mandated by the Depositary's Automated Tender
Offer Program.
 
    If a holder desires to accept the Exchange Offer and time will not permit a
Letter of Transmittal or Old Note to reach the Exchange Agent before the
Expiration Date or the procedure for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on
a timely basis, a tender may be effected if the Exchange Agent has received at
its address set forth below on or prior to the Expiration Date a letter,
telegram or facsimile transmission from an Eligible Institution setting forth
the name and address of the tendering holder, the names in which the Old Notes
are registered and, if possible, the certificate numbers of the Old Notes
guaranteeing that within three business days after the Expiration Date the Old
Notes in proper form for transfer (or a confirmation of book-entry transfer of
such Old Notes into the Exchange Agent's account at the book-entry-transfer
facility) will be delivered by such Eligible Institution together with a
properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (and any other
required documents). Unless Old Notes being tendered by the above-described
method are deposited with the Exchange Agent within the time period set forth
above (accompanied or preceded by a properly completed Letter of Transmittal and
any other required documents), the Issuers may, at their option, reject the
tender. Copies of a Notice of
 
                                       45
<PAGE>
Guaranteed Delivery which may be used by Eligible Institutions for the purposes
described in this paragraph are available from the Exchange Agent.
 
    A tender will be deemed to have been received as of the date when (i) the
tendering holder's properly completed and duly signed Letter of Transmittal (or
Agent's Message in lieu thereof) accompanied by the Old Notes (or a confirmation
of book-entry transfer of such Old Notes into the Exchange Agent's account at
the book-entry transfer facility) is received by the Exchange Agent, or (ii) a
Notice of Guaranteed Delivery or letter, telegram or facsimile transmission to
similar effect (as provided above) from an Eligible Institution is received by
the Exchange Agent. Issuances of New Notes in exchange for Old Notes tendered
pursuant to a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery or letter, telegram or facsimile
transmission to similar effect (as provided above) by an Eligible Institution
will be made only against deposit of the Letter of Transmittal (and any other
required documents) and the tendered Old Notes.
 
    All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of
receipt) and acceptance of Old Notes tendered for exchange will be determined by
the Issuers in their sole discretion, which determination shall be final and
binding. The Issuers reserve the absolute right to reject any and all tenders of
any particular Old Notes not properly tendered or to not accept any particular
Old Notes the acceptance of which might, in the judgment of the Issuers or their
counsel, be unlawful. The Issuers also reserve the absolute right to waive any
defects or irregularities or conditions of the Exchange Offer as to any
particular Old Notes either before or after the Expiration Date (including the
right to waive the ineligibility of any holder who seeks to tender Old Notes in
the Exchange Offer). The interpretation of the terms and conditions of the
Exchange Offer as to any particular Old Notes either before or after the
Expiration Date (including the Letter of Transmittal and the instructions
thereto) by the Issuers shall be final and binding on all parties. Unless
waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of Old Notes
for exchange must be cured within such reasonable period of time as the Issuers
shall determine. Neither the Issuers, the Exchange Agent nor any other person
shall be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity with
respect to any tender of Old Notes for exchange, nor shall any of them incur any
liability for failure to give such notification.
 
    If the Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person or persons other than the
registered holder or holders of Old Notes, such Old Notes must be endorsed or
accompanied by appropriate original powers of attorney, in either case signed
exactly as the name or names of the registered holder or holders appear on the
Old Notes.
 
    If the Letter of Transmittal or any Old Notes or powers of attorney are
signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact,
officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative
capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing and, unless waived by the
Issuers, proper evidence satisfactory to the Issuers of their authority to so
act must be submitted.
 
    By tendering, each holder will represent to the Issuers in the Letter of
Transmittal that, among other things, the New Notes acquired pursuant to the
Exchange Offer are being acquired in the ordinary course of business of the
person receiving such New Notes, whether or not such person is the holder, that
neither the holder nor any such other person has an arrangement or understanding
with any person to participate in the distribution of such New Notes, that
neither the holder nor any such other person is participating in or intends to
participate in the distribution of such New Notes and that neither the holder
nor any such other person is an "affiliate," as defined under Rule 405 of the
Securities Act, of the Issuers. If any holder is such an affiliate of the
Issuers, is engaged in or intends to engage in or has any arrangement with any
person to participate in the distribution of the New Notes to be acquired
pursuant to the Exchange Offer, such holders (i) cannot rely on the applicable
interpretations of the Commission and (ii) must comply with the registration and
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any
resale transaction.
 
    Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account in exchange
for Old Notes, where such Old Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a
result of market-making activities or other
 
                                       46
<PAGE>
trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in
connection with any resale of such New Notes. See "Plan of Distribution."
 
WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS
 
    Tenders of Old Notes may be withdrawn at any time prior to the second to
last business day prior to the Expiration Date.
 
    For a withdrawal to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal sent by
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter must be received by the
Exchange Agent prior to the second to last business day prior to the Expiration
Date at its address set forth below. Any such notice of withdrawal must (i)
specify the name of the person having tendered the Old Notes to the be withdrawn
(the "Depositor"), (ii) identify the Old Notes to be withdrawn (including the
principal amount of such Old Notes delivered for exchange), (iii) be signed by
the holder in the same manner as the original signature on the Letter of
Transmittal by which such Old Notes were tendered or as otherwise described
above (including any required signature guarantees) or be accompanied by
documents of transfer sufficient to have the Trustee under the Indenture
register the transfer of such Old Notes into the name of the person withdrawing
the tender and (iv) specify the name in which any such Old Notes are to be
registered, if different from that of the depositor. If Old Notes have been
tendered pursuant to book-entry transfer described above, the executed notice of
withdrawal, guaranteed by an Eligible Institution, unless such Holder is an
Eligible Institution, must specify the name and number of the account at the
book-entry transfer facility to be credited with the withdrawn Old Notes and
otherwise comply with the procedures of such facility. All questions as to the
validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of such notices will
be determined by the Issuers in their sole discretion, which determination will
be final and binding on all parties. Any Old Notes so withdrawn will be deemed
not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the Exchange
Offer. Any Old Notes which have been tendered for exchange and which are
properly withdrawn will be returned to the holder thereof without cost to such
holder as soon as practicable after such withdrawal. Properly withdrawn Old
Notes may be retendered by following one of the procedures described under
"--Procedures for Tendering Old Notes" above at any time on or prior to the
Expiration Date.
 
SEPARATION
 
    The Old Notes were originally issued as part of a Unit consisting of; (i)
the Old Notes; and (ii) 10 Warrants to purchase 10 shares of Class B, non-voting
Common Stock, no par value of Enterprises. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Notes
and the Warrants were to become separately transferable (at the option of the
holders thereof) on the "Separation Date," being the earliest of: (i) September
1, 1998; (ii) the date on which a registration statement with respect to the
Notes or a registration statement with respect to the Warrants and the Warrant
Shares was filed with the Commission under the Securities Act; (iii) the
occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture) or a sale or
recapitalization of the Issuer, Holdings or the Company occurs (a "Triggering
Event"); (iv) 30 days after a Qualified Public Offering; (v) the occurrence of
an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture); or (vi) such earlier date as
determined by Merrill Lynch & Co. in its sole discretion. The Separation Date
occurred on filing of the Registration Statement. The exchange of Old Notes for
New Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer will separate the Units if such
separation has not occurred prior to the date of exchange.
 
ACCEPTANCE OF OLD NOTES FOR EXCHANGE; DELIVERY OF NEW NOTES
 
    Upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the Exchange Offer,
the Issuers will accept, promptly after the Expiration Date, all Old Notes
properly tendered and will issue the New Notes promptly after acceptance of the
Old Notes. See "--Conditions to the Exchange Offer." For the purposes of the
Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall be deemed to have accepted properly tendered
Old Notes for exchange when, as and if the Issuers have given oral and written
notice thereof to the Exchange Agent.
 
                                       47
<PAGE>
    For each Old Note accepted for exchange, the holder of such Old Note will
receive a New Note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered
Old Note.
 
    In all cases, issuance of New Notes for Old Notes that are accepted for
exchange pursuant to the Exchange Offer will be made only after timely receipt
by the Exchange Agent of certificates for such Old Notes or a timely Book-Entry
confirmation of such Old Notes into the Exchange Agent's account at the
Depositary's book-entry transfer facility, a properly completed and duly
executed Letter of Transmittal and all other required documents. If any tendered
Old Notes are not accepted for any reason set forth in the terms and conditions
of the Exchange Offer or if Old Notes are submitted for a greater principal
amount than the holder desires to exchange, such unaccepted or non-exchanged Old
Notes will be returned without expense to the tendering holder thereof (or, in
case of Old Notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the Exchange Agent's
account at the Depositary's book-entry transfer facility pursuant to the
book-entry transfer procedures described below, such non-exchanged Old Notes
will be credited to an account maintained with the Depositary's book-entry
transfer facility) as promptly as practicable after the expiration of the
Exchange Offer.
 
CONDITIONS TO THE EXCHANGE OFFER
 
    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall
not be required to accept for exchange, or to issue New Notes in exchange for,
any Old Notes and may terminate or amend the Exchange Offer if at any time
before the acceptance of such Old Notes for exchange or the exchange of the New
Notes for such Old Notes any of the following events shall occur:
 
 (i) any action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened by any
     court or any governmental agency or body (including any Nevada gaming
     authority) with respect to the Exchange Offer that, in the Issuers'
     judgment, would reasonably be expected to impair the ability of the Issuers
     to proceed with the Exchange Offer, or
 
 (ii) the Exchange Offer or the making of any exchange by a Holder shall violate
      any applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the
      Commission.
 
    Furthermore, the Exchange Offer is conditioned upon each holder of Notes
exchanged in the Exchange Offer making customary representations in connection
therewith, including that all New Notes to be received by it shall be acquired
in the ordinary course of its business and that at the time of the consummation
of the Exchange Offer it shall have no arrangement or understanding with any
person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities
Act) of the New Notes.
 
    The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of the Issuers and may be
asserted by the Issuers regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such
condition or may be waived by the Issuers in whole or in part at any time and
from time to time in their judgement. The failure by the Issuers at any time to
exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such
right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted
at any time and from time to time.
 
    In addition, the Issuers will not accept for exchange any Old Notes
tendered, and no New Notes will be issued in exchange for any such Old Notes, if
at such time any stop order shall be threatened or in effect with respect to the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part or the
qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the "Trust
Indenture Act").
 
    The Exchange Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of
Old Notes being tendered for exchange.

    DELIVERY OF THE OLD NOTES, LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED
DOCUMENTS TO AN ADDRESS OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE OR TRANSMISSION OF
INSTRUCTIONS VIA FACSIMILE OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A
VALID DELIVERY.
 
SOLICITATION OF TENDERS; FEES AND EXPENSES
 
    The Issuers have not retained any dealer-manager in connection with the
Exchange Offer and will not make any payment to brokers, dealers or other
persons soliciting acceptances of the Exchange Offer. The Issuers, however, will
pay the Exchange Agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will
reimburse it for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.
The cash expenses to be incurred by the Issuers in connection with the Exchange
Offer will be paid by the Issuers.
 
    No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any
representations in connection with the Exchange Offer other than those contained
in this Prospectus. If given or made, such information or representations should
not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Issuers. Neither the
delivery of this Prospectus nor any exchange made hereunder shall, under any
circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in the
affairs of the Issuers since the respective dates as of which information is
given herein. The Exchange Offer is not being made to (nor will tenders be
accepted from or on behalf of) holders of Old Notes in any jurisdiction in which
the making of the Exchange Offer or the acceptance thereof would not be in
compliance with the laws of such jurisdiction.
 
TRANSFER TAXES
 
    Holders who tender their Old Notes for exchange will not be obligated to pay
any transfer taxes in connection therewith except that holders who instruct the
Issuers to register New Notes in the name of, or request that Old Notes not
tendered or not accepted in the Exchange Offer be returned to, a person other
than the registered tendering holder will be responsible for the payment of any
applicable transfer tax thereon.
 
ACCOUNTING TREATMENT
 
    The New Notes will be recorded at the carrying value of the Old Notes as
reflected in the Issuers' accounting records on the date of the exchange.
Accordingly, no gain or loss for accounting purposes will be recognized by the
Issuers upon the exchange of New Notes for Old Notes.
 
                                       49
<PAGE>
CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO EXCHANGE; RESALES OF NEW NOTES
 
    Holders of Old Notes who do not exchange their Old Notes for New Notes
pursuant to the Exchange Offer will continue to be subject to the restrictions
on transfer of such Old Notes as set forth in the legend thereon as a
consequence of the issuance of the Old Notes pursuant to the exemptions from, or
in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities
Act and applicable state securities laws. Old Notes not exchanged pursuant to
the Exchange Offer will continue to remain outstanding in accordance with their
terms (other than with respect to certain registration rights and rights to
Liquidated Damages). In general, the Old Notes may not be offered for resale or
sold unless registered under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an exemption
from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws. The Issuers do not currently anticipate that they will
register the Old Notes under the Securities Act. However, in the event that the
Issuers are not required to file the Exchange Offer or not permitted to
consummate the Exchange Offer as contemplated herein (i) because it would
violate applicable law or the applicable interpretations of the staff of the
Commission, or (ii) if any holder of Old Notes (having a reasonable basis to do
so) shall notify the Issuers within 20 days following the consummation of the
Exchange Offer that (a) such holder is prohibited by law or Commission policy
from participating in the Exchange Offer, (b) such holder may not resell the New
Notes acquired by it in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a
prospectus and the prospectus in connection with the Exchange Offer is not
appropriate or available for such resales, or (c) such holder is a broker-dealer
and holds Old Notes acquired directly from the Issuers or one of their
affiliates, then, in each case, the Issuers will at their sole cost, (i) use
their reasonable best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be
filed on or prior to 45 days after such filing obligation arises, (ii) use their
reasonable best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared
effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the later of (x) 150 days
after the Issue Date and (y) 90 days after the obligation to file such Shelf
Registration Statement arose and (iii) use their reasonable best efforts to keep
effective the Shelf Registration Statement until the earlier of two years
(subject to certain exceptions) after the Issue Date or such time as all of the
applicable Notes have been sold thereunder. The Issuers will, in the event that
a Shelf Registration Statement is filed, provide to each Holder who so requests
a reasonable number of copies of the prospectus that is a part of the Shelf
Registration Statement, notify each such Holder when the Shelf Registration for
the Notes has become effective and take certain other actions as set forth in
the Note Registration Rights Agreement. A holder that sells such Notes pursuant
to the Shelf Registration Statement will be required to be named as a selling
security holder in the related prospectus and to deliver a prospectus to
purchasers, will be subject to certain of the civil liability provisions under
the Securities Act in connection with such sales and will be bound by the
provisions of the Note Registration Rights Agreements that are applicable to
such a Holder (including certain indemnification rights and obligations).
 
    Based on certain no-action letters issued by the staff of the Commission to
third parties in unrelated transactions, the Issuers believe that New Notes
issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be offered for resale, resold or
otherwise transferred by holders thereof (other than (i) any such holder which
is an "affiliate" of the Issuers within the meaning of Rule 405 under the
Securities Act or, (ii) any broker-dealer that purchases Notes from the Issuers
to resell pursuant to Rule 144A or any other available exemption) without
compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the
Securities Act, provided that such New Notes are acquired in the ordinary course
of such holders' business and such holders have no arrangement or understanding
with any person to participate in the distribution of such New Notes and are not
participating in, and do not intend to participate in, the distribution of such
New Notes. If any holder has any arrangement or understanding with respect to
the distribution of the New Notes to be acquired pursuant to the Exchange Offer,
such holders (i) cannot rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of
the Commission and (ii) must comply with the registration and prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary
resale transaction. A broker-dealer who holds Old Notes that were acquired for
its own account as a result of market making or other trading activities may be
deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and must,
therefore,
 
                                       50
<PAGE>
deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in
connection with any resale of New Notes. Each such broker-dealer that receives
New Notes for its own account in exchange for Old Notes, where such Old Notes
were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or
other trading activities, must acknowledge in the Letter of Transmittal that it
will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. See
"Plan of Distribution."
 
    In addition, to comply with the securities laws of certain jurisdictions, if
applicable, the New Notes may not be offered or sold unless they have been
registered or qualified for sale in such jurisdiction or an exemption from
registration or qualification is available and is complied with. The Issuers
have agreed, pursuant to the Note Registration Rights Agreement and subject to
certain specified limitations therein, to use their reasonable best efforts to
register or qualify the New Notes for offer or sale under the securities or blue
sky laws of such jurisdictions as are necessary to permit the consummation of
the Exchange Offer.
 
    Participation in the Exchange Offer is voluntary, and holders of Old Notes
should carefully consider whether to participate. Holders of the Old Notes are
urged to consult their financial and tax advisors in making their own decision
on what action to take.
 
    As a result of the making of, and upon acceptance for exchange of all
validly tendered Old Notes pursuant to the terms of, the Exchange Offer, the
Issuers will have fulfilled certain of their obligations contained in the Note
Registration Rights Agreement. Holders of Old Notes who do not tender their Old
Notes in the Exchange Offer will continue to hold such Old Notes and will be
entitled to all the rights, and limitations applicable thereto, under the
Indenture, except for any such rights under the Note Registration Rights
Agreement that by their terms terminate or cease to have further effectiveness
as a result of the making of this Exchange Offer. See "Description of the
Notes." All untendered Old Notes will continue to be subject to the restrictions
on transfer set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that Old Notes are
tendered and accepted in the Exchange Offer, the trading market for untendered
Old Notes could be adversely affected.
 
    The Issuers may in the future seek to acquire untendered Old Notes in open
market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers
or otherwise. The Issuers have no present plan to acquire any Old Notes which
are not tendered in the Exchange Offer.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
 
    The Company was organized in January 1997. Since that time, the Company's
activities have principally been limited to arranging the design, construction
and financing of the Aladdin and applying for certain permits, licenses and
approvals necessary for the development and operation of the Aladdin. The
Company plans to develop, construct and operate the Aladdin as the centerpiece
of an approximately 35 acre world-class resort, casino and entertainment complex
located on the site of the existing Aladdin hotel and casino (the "Project
Site"). The Aladdin will be situated at a premier location at the center of the
Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada. The original Aladdin hotel and casino was built on
the Project Site in 1966. The Theater was added in 1976. The Project Site was
purchased by the Trust, through a predecessor-in-interest to AHL, in December
1994. To maintain certain tax attributes obtained in connection with the Trust's
acquisition of the Project Site, the original hotel and casino continued to be
leased by JMJ, Inc., the company which leased the Project Site from the former
owners. The original Aladdin hotel and casino was demolished on April 27, 1998
to clear the Project Site for the development of the Complex. The Aladdin is
currently expected to open in the first four months of the year 2000.
 
    Holdings was organized in December, 1997. Capital is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Holdings and was incorporated in December 1997 solely for the
purpose of serving as a co-issuer of the Units in order to facilitate the
Offering. Capital will not have any material operations or assets and will not
have any revenues. As a result, investors in the Notes should not expect Capital
to participate in servicing the principal, interest, premium, Liquidated
Damages, if any, or any other payment obligations on the Notes.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
    The Issuers and the Company have had no significant operations to date.
Certain financial statements for Holdings (on a consolidated basis), Capital and
the Company are included herein. Such historical operating results are not
indicative of future operating results. Certain results of operations for London
Clubs are included herein as Annex A.
 
    Future operating results of the Company, which will be relevant to the
ownership and operation of the Aladdin and so the Issuers, are subject to
significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive uncertainties and
contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company and the
Issuers. While the Company and the Issuers believe that the Aladdin will be able
to attract a sufficient number of patrons and achieve the level of activity
necessary to permit the Issuers and the Company to meet their payment
obligations, including with respect to the Notes, no assurances can be given
that the Issuers or the Company will be able to do so.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    The approximately $790 million necessary to fund the development, financing,
construction and opening of the Aladdin (excluding the Company's $21.3 million
planned indirect cash contribution and $15.0 million appraised fair market value
land contribution to Aladdin Music, as part of the development funds for the
Music Project) will be derived from a combination of (i) borrowings of up to
$410.0 million under the Bank Credit Facility; (ii) operating lease and loan
obligations aggregating $80.0 million under the FF&E Financing; (iii) the Equity
and Series A Preferred Interest Financing, comprising an equity contribution by
London Clubs of $50.0 million in cash, $7.0 million in pre-development costs
incurred by AHL in 1996 and 1997, $150.0 million appraised fair market value in
land by Holdings and $115.0 million of gross proceeds from the Offering; and
(iv) anticipated reimbursement pursuant to the Site Work Agreement of $14.2
million, including interest. See "Use of Proceeds."
 
                                       52
<PAGE>
    On the Issue Date, the Company entered into the Bank Credit Facility with
the Bank Lenders. The Bank Credit Facility, which closed concurrently with the
closing of the Offering, consists of three separate term loans. Term A Loan
comprises a term loan of $136.0 million and matures seven years after the
initial borrowing date. Term B Loan comprises a term loan of $114.0 million and
matures eight and one-half years after the initial borrowing date. Term C Loan
comprises a term loan of $160.0 million and matures ten years after the initial
borrowing date. The Term B Loan and the Term C Loan were funded on the Issue
Date into the Cash Collateral Account, and subject to satisfaction of the
conditions in the Disbursement Agreement, are expected to be drawn down
beginning in June 1998 (approximately four months after the Issue Date). It is
anticipated that the Company will begin to draw down the Term A Loan, subject to
satisfaction of the conditions in the Disbursement Agreement, in December 1999
(approximately 21 months after the Issue Date). See "Risk Factors--Conditions to
Draw Down of Funds Under Funding Transactions." All of the Loans will convert
from construction loans into amortizing loans on the Conversion Date, with
substantial amounts due during the final six quarters of the Term B Loan and the
Term C Loan. The Company has the option to pay interest at either LIBOR or
Scotiabank's ABR, in both cases plus certain margins. See "Description of
Certain Indebtedness and Other Obligations--Bank Credit Facility."
 
    The FF&E Financing provides for the operating lease financing of up to $60.0
million and loans of $20.0 million to obtain the Gaming Equipment and the
Specified Equipment. Under the terms of the FF&E Financing, repayments of
principal and interest are due in quarterly installments. The FF&E Financing is
secured by all of the Gaming Equipment and Specified Equipment financed pursuant
thereto. See "Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other Obligations--FF&E
Financing."
 
    Pursuant to the Equity and Series A Preferred Interest Financing, Holdings
contributed to the Company the following property: (a) approximately $107
million in cash (comprising net proceeds from the Offering), (b) an
approximately 22.75 acre portion of the Project Site upon which the Aladdin, the
Music Project and the Plant will be built (together with adjacent land of
approximately 0.8 acres), which has an appraised fair market value of $150.0
million, (c) $7.0 million in the form of certain pre-development costs incurred
by AHL in 1996 and 1997, and (d) the London Clubs Contribution, consisting of
$50.0 million in cash.
 
   
    London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar Holdings have entered into the Bank
Completion Guaranty for the benefit of the Bank Lenders, pursuant to which
London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar Holdings are required, whenever there are
certain construction cost increases in connection with the work to be performed
pursuant to the Design/Build Contract, and subject to certain qualifications, to
contribute cash to the Company to fund all such increases in construction costs.
Holders of the Notes will, subject to certain exceptions and conditions delaying
and limiting the enforceability of the Noteholder Completion Guaranty, be
entitled to certain rights under the Noteholder Completion Guaranty. See "Risk
Factors-- Lack of Available Information on the Trust's Ability to Perform Its
Obligations Under Certain Agreements," "--Limitations Under Bank Completion
Guaranty and Noteholder Completion Guaranty," "Description of Certain
Indebtedness and Other Obligations--Bank Completion Guaranty" and "Description
of Noteholder Completion Guaranty and Disbursement Agreement--Noteholder
Completion Guaranty."
    
 
    AHL, London Clubs, and Bazaar Holdings have entered into the Keep-Well
Agreement for the benefit of the Bank Lenders. Pursuant to the Keep-Well
Agreement, AHL, London Clubs and Bazaar Holdings have agreed to contribute funds
to the Company to ensure the Company's compliance with certain financial ratios
and other requirements under the Bank Credit Facility for the period up to the
earlier of the date on which the Company complies with all the financial
covenants set forth in the Bank Credit Facility for six consecutive quarterly
periods from and after the Conversion Date or the date on which the aggregate
outstanding principal amounts of the Bank Credit Facility are reduced below
certain amounts and prior to certain dates, subject to certain conditions. See
"Controlling Stockholders--Keep-Well Agreement."
 
                                       53
<PAGE>
    The funds provided by the Funding Transactions are expected to be sufficient
to develop, complete and commence the operations of the Aladdin, assuming no
delays or construction cost overruns which (i) are not covered by the $31.8
million Contingency or (ii) Fluor and/or the Design/Builder are not responsible
for pursuant to the Fluor Guaranty and the Design/Build Contract, respectively.
As of May 31, 1998, the Company expended $1.7 million of the Contingency. It is
not expected that additional external funding will need to be obtained in order
to develop and commence the operations of the Aladdin.
 
    Following the commencement of operations of the Aladdin, the Company expects
to fund its operating and capital needs, as currently contemplated, with $15.0
million of working capital from the Funding Transactions and operating cash
flows. In addition, upon the opening of the Aladdin, the Company is expected to
have an aggregate of $10.0 million available under a working capital facility.
Although no additional financing is contemplated, the Company will seek, if
necessary and to the extent permitted under the Indenture and the terms of the
Bank Credit Facility, additional financing through additional bank borrowings or
debt or equity financings. There can be no assurance that additional financing,
if needed, will be available to the Company, or that, if available, the
financing will be on terms favorable to the Company. There can also be no
assurance that estimates by the Company of its reasonably anticipated liquidity
needs are accurate or that new business developments or other unforeseen events
will not occur, resulting in the need to raise additional funds.

                                    BUSINESS
 
OVERVIEW OF THE COMPLEX
 
   
    The Company plans to develop, construct and operate the Aladdin as the
centerpiece of an approximately 35 acre world-class resort, casino and
entertainment complex located on the site of the existing Aladdin hotel and
casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, a premier location at the center of the Strip. The
Aladdin has been designed to include a luxury theme hotel of approximately 2,600
rooms, an approximately 116,000 square foot casino, an approximately 1,400-seat
production showroom and seven restaurants. The Casino's main gaming area will
contain approximately 2,800 slot machines, 87 table games, keno and a race and
sports book facility. Included on a separate level of the Casino will be the
15,000 square foot luxurious Salle Privee, which is expected to contain an
additional 20 to 30 high denomination table games and approximately 100 high
denomination slot machines. The Salle Privee will cater to wealthy clientele and
be operated and marketed in conjunction with London Clubs, a prestigious,
multi-national casino operator which caters to international premium players.
The Complex, which has been designed to promote Casino traffic and to provide
customers with a wide variety of entertainment alternatives, will comprise (i)
the Aladdin; (ii) the themed entertainment Desert Passage shopping mall with
approximately 522,000 square feet of retail space; (iii) the Music Project,
which will be a second hotel and casino with a music and entertainment theme,
expected to be known as "Sound Republic Hotel and Casino;" (iv) the newly
renovated 7,000-seat Theater; and (v) the approximately 4,800-space Carpark. The
Mall Project and the Music Project will be separately owned by affiliates of the
Company. The Company's business and marketing strategies are expected to
capitalize on the Complex's premier location, its superior designed, mixed-use,
themed development, and strong strategic partnering with highly successful
public companies. The grand opening date for the Aladdin and the Mall Project is
currently anticipated to occur during the first four months of the year 2000,
with the opening of the Music Project expected to occur within six months after
the opening of the Aladdin.
    
 
    The Company's management team is led by Chief Executive Officer Richard J.
Goeglein, the former President and Chief Executive Officer of Harrah's Hotels
and Casinos and President and Chief Operating Officer of Holiday Corp., who
during his term at Harrah's oversaw the expansion of the Harrah's brand,
including the development of Harrah's Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City.
Assisting Mr. Goeglein as Senior Vice President of the Company and
President/Chief Operating Officer of the Aladdin Hotel and Casino is James H.
McKennon, who as President and Chief Operating Officer of Caesars Tahoe was
instrumental in its financial turnaround and as President of Caesars World
International Marketing Corp. was responsible for the global marketing of the
Caesars brand.
 
    It is expected that approximately $75 million will be spent on theming in
the Aladdin and the Desert Passage, of which approximately $35 million will be
spent by the Company on the Aladdin. This theming will create an environment in
the Aladdin that will be based upon the Legends of the 1001 Arabian Nights,
including the intriguing tales of Aladdin, Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves, Sinbad
and other legendary stories woven around ancient wealth and wonders. The Aladdin
theme will be carefully crafted through the interior and exterior architecture
of the facility. The Aladdin's exterior will be designed to include a highly
articulated streetscape, a themed Casino exterior shaped like a Bedouin tent,
fountains, walkways, sculptures and an outdoor restaurant. The sophisticated
interior of the Aladdin will utilize rich colors, textures and design, enhancing
the fantasy of a mystical romantic time and place. A significant feature of the
Desert Passage will be the themed area to be known as the "Lost City." The Lost
City is expected to contain a re-creation of an ancient mystical mountain city
and will house a variety of specialty shops and restaurants underneath a
10-story high ceiling. The Company believes that the Aladdin, with its unique
theme, together with the Desert Passage and Music Project, will ensure its place
as a "must-see" destination in one of the world's largest entertainment cities.
 
    The Company believes that upon completion, the Aladdin, the Mall Project and
the Music Project together will constitute one of the largest and best-planned
integrated, mixed-use entertainment resorts in
 
                                       55
<PAGE>
the world. Bazaar Holdings, a subsidiary of the Trust, and THB, a subsidiary of
TrizecHahn, have entered into a joint venture agreement and formed Bazaar to
develop, construct, own and operate the Mall Project. TrizecHahn is the
principal retail subsidiary of TrizecHahn Corporation, one of the largest
publicly-traded real estate companies in North America. The Desert Passage is
expected to include an array of high-fashion specialty stores, exotic boutiques,
theme restaurants, cafes and other entertainment offerings. The Desert Passage
will be directly connected to the Casino to maximize Casino traffic.
 
    AMH and a subsidiary of Planet Hollywood have entered into the Music Project
Memorandum of Understanding, relating to the ownership and development of the
Music Project. The Music Project Memorandum of Understanding is subject to the
finalization of financing commitments. Planet Hollywood is a creator and
worldwide developer of themed restaurants and consumer brands, most notably
"Planet Hollywood" and the "Official All Star Cafe." Planet Hollywood has
announced that it intends to position a brand of music-oriented entertainment
venues as its third major brand. The Music Project, which will be managed by the
Company, is expected to include an approximately 1,000 room hotel, a 50,000
square foot casino, four restaurants, including a music-themed restaurant which
will feature its own 1,000-person nightclub, a health spa and an outdoor
swimming pool. As part of the development of the Complex, the Company expects to
indirectly contribute to Aladdin Music $21.3 million in cash and land having an
appraised fair market value of $15.0 million in exchange for a preferred
membership interest and to lease the existing 7,000-seat Theater to Aladdin
Music for a nominal amount. It is anticipated that Aladdin Music will carry out
an approximately $8 million renovation of the Theater, improving its decor,
light and sound systems and other facilities. A further distinguishing feature
of the Music Project is the anticipated active involvement of famous artists and
celebrities, some of whom are expected to be stockholders of Planet Hollywood
(or an affiliate), participate in the marketing of the Music Project brand and
perform at the Theater or make other personal appearances at the Music Project.
The Music Project, with its music and entertainment theme, will complement the
Aladdin and it is expected that together the two hotels will offer an excitement
and variety of entertainment alternatives that will further distinguish the
Complex from other venues on the Strip.
 
    The development of the Aladdin commenced during the first quarter of 1998.
The existing Aladdin hotel and casino closed for business on November 25, 1997
and the original facility was demolished on April 27, 1998. The development of
the Mall Project is expected to commence during the second quarter of 1998,
followed thereafter by the expected commencement of the development of the Music
Project in the second half of 1998.
 
   
    There can be no assurance, however, that either of the Mall Project or the
Music Project will, in fact, be completed. If either or both are not completed,
the Company will need to expend additional amounts (expected to be up to
approximately $23 million) with respect to the completion of shared structural
space and the cost of surface parking. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall
Project and the Music Project."
    
 
PREMIER LOCATION
 
    The Aladdin's 800 feet of Strip frontage is located on the section of the
Strip between Flamingo Road at the north and Tropicana Boulevard at the south.
Based upon independent research and assuming completion of the Bellagio, Paris
and Venetian development projects, average vehicular traffic that will pass the
Complex each day is expected to be approximately 54,000.
 
    AIRPORT ACCESS.  Another major feature of the Complex will be its easy
access from Las Vegas' McCarran Airport, only 2.5 miles away. According to the
LVCVA, the number of visitors to Las Vegas has increased at a steady and
significant rate for the last 15 years, growing from approximately 10 million in
1980 to approximately 19 million in 1990 to over 30 million in 1997, with
approximately 47% of these visitors in 1997 arriving by air through McCarran
Airport. McCarran Airport, the tenth busiest airport in the United States, is
currently in the process of expanding its capacity through the addition of 26
new gates,
 
                                       56
<PAGE>
and it is expected that following completion thereof, the number and percentage
of visitors arriving in Las Vegas by air will further increase, making easy
access from McCarran Airport to Las Vegas' resorts even more crucial.
 
    VEHICLE ACCESS.  The Complex will also offer easy access from other major
Las Vegas attractions, including the Las Vegas Convention Center, Hughes Center
office park, and the University of Nevada Las Vegas, the site of the Thomas &
Mack arena, via the main vehicular access on Harmon Avenue. As part of the
Complex, Harmon Avenue, which borders the Project Site, is expected to become a
major east/west thoroughfare and be widened from its existing four lanes to six
lanes. These improvements will allow visitors to access the Aladdin's
approximately 5,000 car spaces (including the approximately 4,800-space Carpark)
without having to traverse the traffic congestion on the Strip, but while still
utilizing major freeways and roads. In addition, by the use of a circular
internal roadway, guests arriving by limousine, car service or private vehicles
will be able to enter the Complex directly and easily from the Strip, Audrie
Lane and Harmon Avenue, further distinguishing the Hotel from many of its
competitors.
 
    PEDESTRIAN ACCESS.  The main entrance to the Aladdin will be located on the
Strip. The Complex's 800 feet of Strip frontage will provide pedestrians with
easy access to the Casino and the Desert Passage. A signaled crosswalk is
expected to be installed on the Strip to provide pedestrians with easy access
from the Bellagio. In addition, overhead pedestrian walkways have been
designated for at least two segments of the Harmon Avenue/Strip intersection
that will facilitate pedestrian traffic to the Aladdin.
 
MASTER-PLANNED, MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT
 
    The Aladdin has been carefully and strategically designed to promote Casino
traffic by an experienced and dedicated team with extensive backgrounds in real
estate development and construction; hotel, casino and restaurant operations;
and retail development and management. Each element of the Complex has been
sited and planned in a manner that maximizes pedestrian and vehicular traffic so
as to facilitate access to and from the Complex, as well as circulation between
the different parts of the Complex. The combination of the two distinct hotels
and casinos (catering to different but complementary market segments), the Mall
Project, the Theater and the Salle Privee will make the Complex a unique
integration of high-end and upper-middle market uses that benefit each other and
distinguish the Complex from other resorts on the Strip.
 
    The Casino will be located in front of the Hotel, and unlike many of the
newer projects on the Strip, will provide easy access for pedestrians without
requiring long walks into the Complex. The Casino will be the nexus for the vast
majority of pedestrian traffic in the fully integrated Complex, including the
Desert Passage, the Music Project, and the Theater. Significant portions of the
Desert Passage and all of the Theater's entrances and exits will be accessed
through, or be adjacent to, the Casino. The Complex's 800 feet of Strip frontage
will provide pedestrians with easy access to the Casino and the Desert Passage
from the Strip. Pedestrian visitors to the Aladdin entering from the Strip will
be able to enter directly through the Casino or through the Desert Passage
entrances.
 
    Another feature of the design of the Complex which will further distinguish
the Aladdin from its competitors will be the ease of both vehicular and
pedestrian traffic flow. Through the use of a circular internal roadway, guests
arriving by limousine, car service or private vehicle will be able to enter the
Complex directly and easily from the Strip and Harmon Avenue. Furthermore, by
the use of bridges and access ways, pedestrians will not be required to cross
roadways while moving between different attractions on the Complex, thus
facilitating ease of movement between various parts of the Complex and the
Strip.
 
UNIQUE ENTERTAINMENT FACILITIES
 
    The Aladdin is expected to benefit from the Casino traffic generated from
the broad variety of entertainment facilities located throughout the Complex.
The Aladdin will be adjacent to the existing Theater, which will continue to be
used to hold major concerts and theatrical performances, and is one of
 
                                       57
<PAGE>
the few venues of its size and type in Nevada. The Company expects to lease the
existing Theater for a nominal amount to Aladdin Music, which intends to carry
out an approximately $8 million renovation of the Theater, improving its decor,
light and sound systems and other facilities. The Theater's renovation is
expected to transform it into a first-class venue and provide an additional
source of visitor traffic to the Complex. Under the Theater Lease (as defined
herein), the Company will retain certain rights to use the Theater for
Company-promoted events at agreed commercial rates.
 
    The Aladdin will also include a 1,400-seat showroom which will provide live
nightly entertainment on its mezzanine level for the Hotel, Casino, Desert
Passage and other guests. The showroom will feature a 1001 Arabian Nights-themed
production show, including elegant, exotic costuming, music, lighting and
choreography. Furthermore, the Music Project will contain a 1,000-person
nightclub featuring regular live performances.
 
    The Desert Passage will be designed to engage the customer in a themed
shopping, entertainment and dining experience. Of the approximately 522,000
square feet of retail space within the Desert Passage, it is anticipated that
approximately 25% will be devoted to high pedestrian traffic-generating food,
beverage and entertainment experiences. A significant feature of the Desert
Passage will be the themed area to be known as the "Lost City." The "Lost City"
is expected to contain a re-creation of an ancient mystical mountain city and
will house a variety of specialty shops and restaurants underneath a 10-story
high ceiling.
 
PRESTIGIOUS STRATEGIC PARTNERS
 
    The Company has assembled a unique combination of partners for the
development of the Complex - London Clubs, TrizecHahn, Planet Hollywood and
Unicom Corporation. These partners bring a wealth of knowledge, capital,
networks and experience to the Complex.
 
   
    LONDON CLUBS INVESTMENT.  London Clubs, a prestigious multi-national casino
operator, owns through LCNI 25% of the outstanding Holdings Common Membership
Interests. London Clubs had an equity market capitalization of over $461 million
on May 29, 1998. As reflected on page A-17 hereof, London Clubs' Net Cash Flow
From Operating Activities for the 53 weeks ended March 30, 1997 was
approximately L44.8 million and for the 52 weeks ended March 29, 1998 was
approximately L23.3 million. London Clubs believes that based on its financial
statements and current business operations it will be able to meet its
commitments under the Bank Completion Guaranty, the Noteholder Completion
Guaranty and the Keep-Well Agreement. London Clubs has extensive experience in
the international marketing of casinos to premium players and maintains a strong
presence in the United Kingdom (where it controls the largest share of the
London casino market), Europe, Asia and the Middle East. In addition to its 25%
ownership of the outstanding Holdings Common Membership Interests, London Clubs,
through LCNI, will direct the operations of, and act as marketing consultant to,
the Salle Privee, the luxurious 15,000 square foot gaming area to be located on
the mezzanine level of the Casino which will be designed to cater to the needs
of the international premium-play guest. The Company believes that the Salle
Privee will be the first of its kind in the United States managed by a European
operator and based on the European concept of full service gaming areas for
premium players. The Salle Privee's primary business and marketing focus will be
to access London Clubs' worldwide member base of upscale casino clientele. Salle
Privee Hotel guests will be escorted through a private entrance to a dedicated
registration lobby and then taken via a private elevator to the Salle Privee's
five private floors of suites at the apex of the Aladdin's main tower. Once
there, the 24-hour butler and concierge will cater to the care and comfort of
the Salle Privee guest. In the elegantly appointed Salle Privee casino, the
customer may dine in the 100-seat exclusive restaurant, offering fine cuisine
from around the world.
    
 
    London Clubs provides the Aladdin with an extensive international network of
premium casino players, having established substantial goodwill and customer
loyalty from high-end customers in the United Kingdom, Europe, Asia and the
Middle East. In addition, London Clubs is an experienced service provider to
high-end gaming customers and brings a wealth of knowledge to the Aladdin in
building and
 
                                       58

maintaining relationships with and customer loyalty from such clientele. London
Clubs also provides the Company with superb promotional opportunities, not only
by word of mouth through its network of contacts, but also through international
sporting sponsorships, including horse racing and motor racing, which are well
recognized in the United Kingdom, Cyprus, Hong Kong, Dubai and Malaysia, and its
international print publications, which are distributed to members worldwide
utilizing London Clubs' substantial database of premium clientele.
 
   
    JOINT VENTURE WITH PLANET HOLLYWOOD.  Through a subsidiary, Planet Hollywood
has agreed to be a 50% partner (on a fully diluted basis) in the Music Project.
Planet Hollywood is a creator and worldwide developer of consumer brands, most
notably "Planet Hollywood" and the "Official All Star Cafe," that capitalize on
the universal appeal of the high energy environment of movies, sports and other
entertainment-based themes. As of December 31, 1997, there were 78 Planet
Hollywood brand restaurants and nine Official All Star Cafe brand restaurants
worldwide. Planet Hollywood has announced that it intends to position its brand
of music-themed entertainment venues as its third major brand. A distinguishing
feature of the Music Project is the anticipated active involvement of famous
artists and celebrities, some of whom are expected to be stockholders of Planet
Hollywood, participate in the marketing of Planet Hollywood's music-oriented
brand and help generate significant media attention and publicity. Planet
Hollywood plans to utilize its strategy of celebrity involvement with its
music-themed brand. The Company believes this exposure will enhance the Aladdin
by providing immediate excitement and press coverage for the Complex.
    
 
    STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIP WITH TRIZECHAHN.  The Mall Project will be owned,
developed and operated by Aladdin Bazaar, a joint venture between Bazaar
Holdings and TBH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of TrizecHahn. TrizecHahn is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of TrizecHahn Corporation, one of the largest publicly
traded real estate companies in North America, with an equity market
capitalization of over $3.1 billion on May 29, 1998.
 
    TrizecHahn was the developer of the Fashion Show Shopping Mall on the Strip
and other major shopping malls including Horton Plaza in San Diego, Bridgewater
Commons in New Jersey, Valley Fair in San Jose and Park Meadows in Denver. The
Company believes that TrizecHahn's proven ability in designing well laid-out
retail centers, attracting high quality tenants and successfully promoting and
operating its retail projects will benefit the Aladdin by attracting a
consistent stream of visitors to the Complex and its various attractions.
Investors should note that TrizecHahn has announced that it is considering
selling its operating portfolio of regional shopping centers and on April 6,
1998, announced the sale of 20 regional shopping centers for over $2.5 billion.
While TrizecHahn's announcement is limited to the sale of its current operating
portfolio of regional shopping centers, there can be no assurance that
TrizecHahn will not similarly decide to sell its interest in the Desert Passage.
Accordingly, investors cannot be assured that TrizecHahn will own and operate
the Desert Passage once it becomes operational, and as a result, pedestrian
traffic to the Aladdin may decrease. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall
Project and the Music Project."
 
    ENERGY PLANT CONTRACT WITH ENERGY PROVIDER.  The Energy Provider, a
subsidiary of UTH, will be the energy provider for certain parts of the Complex.
The predecessor entity of UTH was founded in 1993 to develop district energy
projects, and UTH has developed the largest district cooling system in the
world, located in Chicago, Illinois. UTH is also a partner in energy ventures in
Boston, Houston and Windsor, Ontario. The Energy Provider's obligations under
the Development Agreement up to $30.0 million will be guaranteed by its ultimate
parent, Unicom. Unicom, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, had an
equity market capitalization of over $7.6 billion on May 29, 1998. See "Risk
Factors--Completion of the Energy Project."
 
    CLOSE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MANAGEMENT AND OWNERS.  On completion, it is
expected that the Complex will be one of only two independently constructed
hotel, casino and retail major Strip projects in Las Vegas (the other being the
Venetian Hotel and Casino). All other major competitors of the Aladdin are
 
                                       59
<PAGE>
corporate projects, such as the Bellagio, owned by Mirage Resorts, Inc. and
Paris Casino owned by Hilton. Management believes that the close relationship
between the Company's members and management will be conducive to more efficient
decision making and ultimately assist in the successful development and
operation of the Complex.
 
STRATEGY
 
    The Company's business and marketing strategies are linked together by the
Complex's premier location, its superior design, mixed-use theme development and
strong strategic partnering with highly successful public companies.
 
    CREATE A "MUST-SEE" DESTINATION.  The Company believes that the Aladdin,
with its unique, well-executed design, together with the Desert Passage and the
Music Project (including the newly renovated Theater), will ensure its place as
a "must-see" destination in one of the fastest growing entertainment cities in
the world. The Aladdin theme will be supported by a sophisticated interior
design enhancing the fantasy of mystical and romantic time and place. The
Aladdin's main Casino traffic will be driven not only by Hotel guests, but also
by the customers directly attracted from the Strip. Visitor traffic to the
Aladdin will also be enhanced by the attractiveness of the Desert Passage. With
the addition of the Music Project, which will address a somewhat younger
clientele, the Complex will have a combined room count of approximately 3,600
rooms and appeal to a broader customer demographic.
 
    MARKET POSITIONING.  The Company intends to focus on three different market
segments to attract customers to the Aladdin:
 
    - UPSCALE CLIENTELE. The Hotel will be designed to appeal to upscale
      clientele, providing the amenities and level of service such high-end
      guests expect. In particular, each of the Hotel's approximately 2,600
      guest rooms and suites will have an area of not less than 450 square
      feet--exceeding that of the average Las Vegas hotel room of approximately
      360 to 400 square feet--and 24% of the Hotel's guest rooms and suites will
      have an area exceeding 620 square feet. The Hotel's room inventory for the
      upscale market will include 400 "king parlors" (ranging from 620 to 680
      square feet), 136 "tower end-cap suites" (ranging from 732 to 1,162 square
      feet) and 58 "center king suites" (585 square feet). Each of the rooms and
      suites will have a large four or five fixture bathroom with a separate
      shower, bathtub, up to two washbasins and an enclosed watercloset. A
      special feature of each of the rooms and suites will be the added width
      given to the interior design allowing for a more residential feel. The
      Hotel will provide extensive recreational facilities for its guests,
      including a 20,000 square foot health spa with steam, sauna and massage
      services and an outdoor swimming-pool complex located above the Desert
      Passage and surrounded by gardens and fountains. The Company intends to
      promote the Hotel's many features to the upscale market through a variety
      of media, including high-end print publications, travel agents and events
      sponsorships. A targeted relationship marketing program is expected to
      ensure clientele retention and repeat visitation.
 
    - INTERNATIONAL PREMIUM PLAYER CLIENTELE. The Company believes that the
      Salle Privee will be the first of its kind in the United States managed by
      a European operator and based on the European concept of full-service
      gaming areas for premium players. The focus of the Salle Privee's business
      will be the wealthy clientele that form the core of London Clubs' business
      in London and elsewhere. The Hotel will include 30 suites primarily for
      use by Salle Privee clientele, including 25 "Salle Privee" suites (ranging
      from 815 to 930 square feet) and five "mega-suites" (ranging from 2,125 to
      3,500 square feet). The Company will maintain the Salle Privee's premium
      player atmosphere through more sophisticated dining options, higher table
      limits and more formal levels of service and dress.
 
    - UPPER-MIDDLE MARKET CLIENTELE. The Hotel's variety of guest rooms, six of
      its seven restaurants and the 1,400-seat production showroom, combined
      with the heavily-themed Casino, Theater and Desert Passage, are expected
      to appeal broadly to the upper-middle market guest. In addition, the
 
                                       60
<PAGE>
      Music Project is expected to appeal to the upper-middle market by
      attracting younger, affluent customers to the Complex through its music
      and entertainment-based theme. The Music Project is expected to include an
      approximately 1,000 room hotel, four restaurants, including a music-themed
      restaurant which will feature its own 1,000-person nightclub, a health spa
      and outdoor swimming pool, together with a 50,000 square foot casino. The
      Theater, which will be a major feature of the Complex, will be central to
      the Company's promotional strategies for this market segment, with
      publicity expected to be gained through the booking of popular performers,
      many of which are expected to be broadcast live to Planet Hollywood's
      other music-themed entertainment venues. Cooperative advertising and
      promotion through various media, such as television, radio and print, will
      be used to promote the Complex to the upper-middle market.
 
    LEVERAGE FROM STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS.  The Company and its affiliates have
chosen as strategic partners an experienced team of retail, casino and themed
entertainment developers and operators. The Company intends to utilize the
unique expertise of its partners from the preliminary development stages of the
Complex through its promotion and operation.
 
    - DEVELOPMENT EXPERTISE. In establishing a strategic relationship with
      TrizecHahn, the Company has obtained the knowledge, skills and capital of
      a partner who has expertise in the coordination, construction and
      completion in a timely manner of large, high quality projects.
 
    - MANAGEMENT AND OPERATING ABILITIES. The Complex will benefit from the
      experience of TrizecHahn, London Clubs and Planet Hollywood in its
      operations. Through its management and ownership of several shopping
      centers, TrizecHahn has demonstrated its ability to successfully design,
      configure and attract high quality tenants to its retail shopping
      projects. London Clubs has extensive experience in the international
      marketing and operation of casinos, in particular to premium players. In
      addition, Planet Hollywood has successfully grown its concepts to 87
      company-owned and franchised Planet Hollywood and Official All Star Cafe
      units (as of December 31, 1997) since commencing business in 1991.
 
    - CAPITALIZING ON BRAND NAMES. With access to some of the most well-known
      names in the relevant markets, the Company expects to capitalize on the
      worldwide brand recognition of Planet Hollywood, London Clubs and
      TrizecHahn.
 
    - ACCESSING NEW CLIENT BASE. London Clubs and Planet Hollywood are expected
      to provide the Complex with access to market segments which the Company
      believes have not been extensively penetrated by other hotel/casinos in
      Las Vegas. London Clubs provides the Aladdin with one of the best networks
      of international premium players in the world and superb promotional
      opportunities. Furthermore, it is expected that Planet Hollywood will
      introduce a younger, affluent clientele to the Complex through, among
      other things, celebrity involvement in the Music Project.
 
    CAREFULLY MANAGE CONSTRUCTION COSTS AND RISKS.  The Company anticipates the
total cost of developing, financing, constructing and opening the Aladdin to be
approximately $790 million (excluding the Company's $21.3 million planned
indirect cash contribution and $15.0 million appraised fair market value land
contribution to Aladdin Music as part of the development funds for the Music
Project). As part of the Company's strategy of carefully managing construction
costs and risks, the Company has hired Tishman, a privately held company with
extensive experience in building quality hotels and casinos, to be the
construction manager. As construction manager, Tishman will advise with respect
to scheduling, administration and reporting in connection with the construction
activities of the Design/Builder. In addition, the following arrangements have
been made to ensure the full and timely completion of the Aladdin.
 
   
    BANK COMPLETION GUARANTY AND NOTEHOLDER COMPLETION GUARANTY.  London Clubs,
the Trust and Bazaar Holdings have entered into the Bank Completion Guaranty for
the benefit of the Bank Lenders, under which they have agreed, among other
things, to guarantee the completion of the Aladdin. The Bank Completion
Guaranty, which became effective as of the closing of the Offering, is not
subject to any
    
 
                                       61
<PAGE>
   
maximum dollar limitations. The holders of the Notes are not party to the Bank
Completion Guaranty, however, London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar Holdings have
entered into the Noteholder Completion Guaranty for the benefit of the holders
of the Notes, under which they have guaranteed completion of the Aladdin,
subject to certain important exceptions, limitations and qualifications. The
Noteholder Completion Guaranty contains certain intercreditor provisions which
significantly limit the rights of the Trustee under the Noteholder Completion
Guaranty. In particular the Noteholder Completion Guaranty sets forth certain
standstill periods during which the Trustee or the holders of the Notes may not
enforce the Noteholder Completion Guaranty or seek remedies thereunder even if
there is a default under the Bank Completion Guaranty and the Bank Lenders are
no longer advancing funds. In addition, there are limitations and restrictions
on the rights of the Trustee to enforce the Noteholder Completion Guaranty,
particularly following any exercise of remedies by the Bank Lenders. No
financial information regarding the Trust is available for the purpose of
evaluating the Trust's creditworthiness and, accordingly, purchasers of Notes
should not rely upon the Trust's performance under the Bank Completion Guaranty
or Noteholder Completion Guaranty when making their investment decision. See
"Risk Factors--Limitations Under Bank Completion Guaranty and Noteholder
Completion Guaranty," "Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other
Obligations--Bank Completion Guaranty" and "Description of Noteholder Completion
Guaranty and Disbursement Agreement--Noteholder Completion Guaranty."
    
 
    DESIGN/BUILD CONTRACT.  Fluor Daniel, Inc. is the design/builder for the
Aladdin. The Design/Builder has entered into a guaranteed maximum price
design/build contract (subject to scope changes) with the Company to construct
the Aladdin. The Design/Build Contract provides the Design/Builder with
incentives for completing the Aladdin ahead of schedule and within budget and
for payment of liquidated damages to the Company for certain delays. The
Design/Build Contract is guaranteed by Fluor Corporation, the parent of the
Design/Builder, pursuant to the Fluor Guaranty. See "Certain Material
Agreements-- Design/Build Contract."
 
    MALL FINANCING AND MALL GUARANTY.  Bazaar has entered into a building loan
agreement with the Mall Lenders to fund the construction of the Mall Project.
Furthermore, TrizecHahn, THOP, the Trust, Bazaar Holdings and AHL have agreed to
guarantee completion of the Mall Project and Bazaar's indebtedness to the Mall
Lenders until certain earnings and loan to value targets have been met. Funding
under the Mall Financing is subject to certain conditions. See "Risk
Factors--Completion of the Mall Project and the Music Project" and "Certain
Material Agreements--Mall Financing."
 
THE ALADDIN
 
    OVERVIEW.  The Aladdin will comprise the Hotel and the Casino and will be
owned, developed and operated by the Company. The Aladdin will be constructed of
high quality materials, including floors covered in stone, marble and granite
set in intricate patterns; carpeting of wool axminster; and wall surfaces of
covered architectural veneers, tiles of stone, ceramic and mosaic. The main
ceiling treatment will combine actual tent drape with texture and design of a
matching motif.
 
    THE ALADDIN HOTEL.  The Hotel building is expected to comprise a 34-story,
400 foot main tower attached to two 17 story towers. The approximately
2,600-room Hotel room inventory will include standard rooms, 400 "king parlors"
(ranging from 620 to 680 square feet), 136 "tower end-cap suites" (ranging from
732 to 1,162 square feet), 58 "center king suites" (585 square feet), 25 "Salle
Privee Suites" (ranging from 815 to 930 square feet) and five "mega-suites", the
largest of which will be approximately 3,500 square feet. The design and
furnishings of the rooms will be spacious and luxurious, with appointments
inspired by the Aladdin theme. All guest rooms will include such amenities as a
dual line phone in the bathroom and two additional dual line speakerphones with
modem hook-up. The king parlors, tower end-cap, center king and Salle Privee
suites and the mega-suites will include a king-size or two queen-size beds, with
over-sized bathrooms featuring a separate bathtub and shower, dual sinks,
enclosed watercloset and, for the center king, Salle Privee and mega-suites,
such amenities as a separate living area with a fully-stocked minibar and
 
                                       62
<PAGE>
a work area with modem hook-up, fax machine/printer and video telephone
technology. The suites will be designed to accommodate informal business
meetings involving both business travelers and convention attendees.
Approximately 93 of the suites will be of a larger size, allowing for the
possibility of casually entertaining up to forty persons in the living area. The
main tower will also house luxury suites designed for Salle Privee and other VIP
guests, including premium casino players and convention and trade show attendees
who require additional space for entertaining.
 
    The Hotel is expected to provide extensive recreational facilities designed
to pamper its guests, including a 20,000 square foot health spa with steam,
sauna and massage services and an outdoor swim-ming-pool complex located above
the Desert Passage and surrounded by gardens and fountains.
 
    The Aladdin is expected to include seven restaurants, with combined seating
capacity for over 2,300 customers, offering a wide range of dining selections.
Food service facilities at the Aladdin will include a buffet and food plaza
seating 800 customers, a 24-hour casual dining facility seating 575 customers
and a high-energy restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating which will overlook
the Strip and be located on the Casino level. This "al fresco" dining
experience, one of the first on the Strip, will further distinguish the Aladdin
from its competitors and will provide a lively attraction for pedestrians
traversing the Strip. The mezzanine level, which will offer a panoramic view of
the main casino floor, will feature a themed restaurant of 150 seats and a
steakhouse of 150 seats, both of which will offer indoor and outdoor terrace
dining. A Sushi/Chinese noodle shop with 50 seats and a casual dining/coffee bar
will complete the food offerings on the mezzanine. There will also be a poolside
restaurant with capacity to seat 150 people. To ensure consistent, high quality
service throughout the Aladdin, the Company will own and operate all food
service facilities in the Aladdin (other than the exclusive Salle Privee
restaurant, which will be operated by London Clubs).
 
    THE SHOWROOM.  In keeping with the Aladdin's Arabian Nights theme, the
Aladdin will include, on its mezzanine level, a 1,400-seat showroom which will
provide nightly entertainment for Hotel, Casino and other guests. The showroom
will feature a 1001 Arabian Nights-theme production show including elegant,
exotic costuming, music, lighting and choreography.
 
    CONVENTION, MEETING AND RECEPTION FACILITIES.  The Aladdin is expected to
include on the mezzanine floor of the main building over 70,000 square feet of
convention, conference, trade show and reception facilities, including a 28,500
square foot main ballroom, 25,600 square feet of pre-function space and 17,400
square feet of breakout space in 16 separate rooms. These facilities will be
made available for business and other conventions, trade shows, private
receptions and conferences throughout the year. Management believes that
convention, meetings and special events customers will represent an important
market for the Aladdin, helping the Hotel obtain consistently high occupancy
rates and levels. See "-- Guest Mix--Conventions, Meetings and Special Events
Customers."
 
    GUEST MIX.  The Hotel guest mix, in order of magnitude, is expected to
include free and independent travelers, targeted casino customers (both
complimentary and at casino rates), convention, meetings and special events
customers, and tour and travel customers. Of these groups, all but one
(convention, meeting and special events customers) generally have substantial
leisure time to take advantage of the Complex's many attractions. According to
the LVCVA, approximately 72% of the visitors to Las Vegas came to Las Vegas for
vacation and pleasure in 1997.
 
The planned guest mix by category is as follows:

</TABLE>
 
                                       63
<PAGE>
    FREE AND INDEPENDENT TRAVELERS.  Free and independent travelers will be the
primary focus of the Complex with its array of resort services including
luxurious rooms, swimming pool and spa, fine restaurants (both in the Hotel,
Casino and the Desert Passage), extensive retail opportunities, and the multiple
entertainment offerings of the Theater, the Aladdin/Arabian Nights production
show and the Desert Passage. Free and independent travelers include persons who
travel to Las Vegas from throughout the world who are not affiliated with a
traveling group and make their reservations at the property of their choice.
These travelers are characterized by travel budgets higher on average than the
typical "tour group" traveler budget. They generally pay higher room rates, are
predominantly weekend customers and have a relatively high non-gaming budget but
still spend more money on gaming activities than the typical Las Vegas visitor.
Management believes the Aladdin's emphasis on high-quality accommodation and an
upscale integrated entertainment complex will broadly appeal to this market.
 
    CASINO CUSTOMERS.  Casino customers will be drawn from the upscale,
international premium and upper-middle segments of the market. Utilizing both
the resources of London Clubs and those internal to the Company, the Casino
marketing network will cover Europe, the Middle East, the Pacific Rim, Mexico
and Latin America, as well as the United States. The Company believes that the
Aladdin's high levels of service, distinctive and private accommodations and the
Salle Privee and its amenities will help differentiate it from its competitors.
Where appropriate, management will offer complementary suites to high quality,
repeat casino players and other premium players. In addition, the Casino will
offer a range of popular gaming alternatives, designed to attract the
upper-middle market guest.
 
    CONVENTIONS, MEETINGS AND SPECIAL EVENTS CUSTOMERS.  Conventions, meetings
and special events customers are expected to fill the mid-week time periods when
the demand by free and independent travelers is lower. Las Vegas is currently
the largest trade show market and the fourth largest convention market in the
United States, with Las Vegas hotels obtaining premium occupancy rates during
large conventions. By utilizing the Aladdin's 70,000 square feet of convention
and meeting space, the Aladdin will focus on groups that have both a good hotel
and gaming revenue profile. Demand for convention and meeting room nights will
be supplemented by convention guests being displaced from neighboring hotels.
 
    TOUR AND TRAVEL CUSTOMERS.  The tour and travel market consists of customers
who utilize "packages" to reduce the cost of travel, lodging and entertainment.
According to the LVCVA, approximately 28% of Las Vegas' visitors utilized such
tour packages in 1997. These "packages" are produced by wholesalers and travel
agents and emphasize mid-week stays in Las Vegas. Management believes that it
will be able to capture a significant portion of this market segment by offering
the extensive facilities (including non-gaming attractions and amenities) of the
Complex to tour and travel visitors during off-peak periods. The tour and travel
market will be utilized to fill rooms mid-week with nominal room blocks on the
weekends when demand by free and independent travelers is at its peak. With the
upper-middle and upscale focus of the Hotel, the Aladdin will focus on the
higher-end tour and travel guest from both domestic and international tour
operators.
 
    THE CASINO.  A highly-themed approximately 116,000 square foot casino will
be at the center of the Complex. The Casino's main gaming area will contain
approximately 2,800 slot machines, 87 table games, keno and a race and sports
book facility. Included on a separate level of the Casino will be the luxurious
15,000 square foot Salle Privee, which is expected to contain an additional
approximately 100 high limit slot machines and 20 to 30 high limit table games.
The Salle Privee will cater to wealthy clientele and will be operated and
marketed in conjunction with London Clubs, a prestigious, multi-national casino
operator which caters to international premium players. The Casino will be
located in front of the Hotel, and unlike many of the newer projects on the
Strip, will provide easy access for pedestrians without requiring long walks
into the Complex. The Casino will be the nexus for the vast majority of
pedestrian traffic on the fully integrated Complex, including the Desert
Passage, the Music Project and the Theater. The Casino's exterior will be
designed in the style of a large Bedouin sheik's tent, helping to introduce the
Aladdin theme to visitors even before they reach the Complex. On entering the
Casino, patrons will be surrounded
 
                                       64
<PAGE>
by the Aladdin theme through sculptured surroundings, rich fabrics, strategic
lighting and music, evoking the mystery and luxury of the Legends of the 1001
Arabian Nights. At the center of the Casino will be "Scheherazade's Palace," a
series of themed architectural elements of domes, arches, and 65 foot polished
stone columns. The main level of Scheherazade's Palace will have a bar and live
entertainment lounge overlooking the Casino and across to the Mezzanine level.
 
    THE SALLE PRIVEE AND THE SALLE PRIVEE MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT.  A distinctive
feature of the Casino will be the Salle Privee, located on the mezzanine level
which will be designed to cater to the needs of the international premium guest.
The Salle Privee will contain 20 to 30 high limit table games including
baccarat, double zero roulette, single zero roulette and blackjack, and
approximately 100 high limit slot machines.
 
    Management believes that the Aladdin's Salle Privee will be the first of its
kind in the United States managed by a European operator and based on the
European concept of a luxurious, full-service, gaming area for international and
domestic premium players. The focus of the Salle Privee's business will be the
wealthy clientele that form the core of London Clubs' business in London and
elsewhere. The Company will maintain the Salle Privee's premium player
atmosphere through more sophisticated dining options, higher table limits and
more formal levels of service and dress.
 
    Management believes that the Salle Privee will prove to be a significant
attraction for premium players to stay at the Hotel and play at the Casino. In
order to take full advantage of this potential, the Company has entered into a
consulting and marketing services agreement (the "Salle Privee Management
Agreement") with London Clubs, one of the Controlling Stockholders, under which
London Clubs will promote the Salle Privee, marketing this aspect of the Aladdin
through its international network of premium casino customers. See "Certain
Material Agreements -- Salle Privee Management Agreement."
 
    With an equity market capitalization of over $461 million as of May 29,
1998, London Clubs has extensive experience in the international marketing of
casinos to premium players. London Clubs operates seven casinos in London, one
in Cannes, France, three in Egypt and one in Lebanon. Each of London Clubs'
casinos offer their own individual style, but with comparable internationally
recognized standards of service. In recent years, London Clubs has embarked upon
a period of expansion, acquiring the Park Tower Casino in London's Knightsbridge
in October 1995 and re-opening and managing the casino operations of the famous
Casino du Liban in Lebanon in December 1996.
 
    London Clubs maintains a strong presence in the United Kingdom (where it
controls a leading share of the London casino market), Europe, Asia and the
Middle East. Its international sporting sponsorships, including horse racing and
motor racing, are widely recognized, particularly in the United Kingdom, Cyprus,
Hong Kong, Dubai and Malaysia. In addition, London Clubs produces a print
publication for its clientele utilizing its substantial database of premium
customers which is a valuable means of direct communication with its clientele
worldwide. Each issue features developments in London Clubs' clubs, lifestyle
articles, member profiles and a popular social diary.
 
    Under the Salle Privee Management Agreement, London Clubs will earn an
incentive fee based on the operating performance of the Salle Privee. As a
result of London Clubs' substantial network of casino players in the United
Kingdom, Europe, Asia and the Middle East and management's own extensive network
in North and South America and the Pacific Rim, management believes that the
Salle Privee will provide the Aladdin with a significant competitive advantage
over other hotels and casinos on the Las Vegas Strip in attracting customers
from the profitable international premium player market. Through London Clubs'
involvement in the promotion of the Salle Privee, its equity interest in
Holdings and its commitment to the Aladdin (demonstrated in part by the
Keep-Well Agreement and the Completion Guaranty), management also believes that
the Aladdin's international profile and financial stability will be
significantly strengthened.

THE MALL PROJECT
 
    OVERVIEW.  Located on the Complex adjacent to the Aladdin will be the Desert
Passage, a shopping mall with approximately 522,000 square feet of retail space,
and the approximately 4,800-space Carpark, each of which will be developed,
owned and operated by Bazaar, a joint venture between Bazaar Holdings and THB, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of TrizecHahn. TrizecHahn has extensive experience in
developing retail properties, and prior to its recently announced sale of 20
regional shopping centers, owned and managed 27 regional centers throughout the
United States, comprising over 25 million square feet.
 
    TrizecHahn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TrizecHahn Corporation, one of
the largest publicly traded real estate companies in North America, with an
equity market capitalization of over $3.4 billion as of April 2, 1998. Investors
should note that TrizecHahn has announced that it is considering selling its
entire operating portfolio of regional shopping centers and on April 6, 1998
announced the sale of 20 regional shopping centers for over $2.5 billion. While
TrizecHahn's announcement is limited to the sale of its current operating
portfolio of regional shopping centers, there can be no assurance that
TrizecHahn will not similarly decide to sell its interest in the Desert Passage.
Accordingly, investors cannot be assured that TrizecHahn will own and operate
the Desert Passage once it becomes operational, and as a result, pedestrian
traffic to the Aladdin may decrease. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall
Project and the Music Project."
 
    THE DESERT PASSAGE.  The Desert Passage entertainment shopping mall will
constitute a key aspect of the Complex, and, like the Aladdin, will be heavily
themed on the Arabian Nights legends. With a strong presence and entrances on
the Strip, the Desert Passage will wrap around the Casino and Hotel buildings
and the Theater. The Desert Passage will consist of two stories of prime retail
space in the area closest to the Strip, reducing to one-level in the areas near
the rear of the Hotel, the Carpark and the Music Project. While the Desert
Passage will be of a similar size to the successful Forum Shops at Caesars
Palace, it will not be set back from the Strip, but will instead be located
close to the Strip, allowing passing pedestrian traffic to gain easy access.
Pedestrian visitors to the Aladdin entering from the Strip will be able to enter
directly through the Casino or through the Desert Passage entrances and
significant portions of the Desert Passage will flow directly into the Casino.
It is expected that the Desert Passage will provide a steady source of
pedestrians and Hotel guests to the Complex, many of whom it is expected will
also want to visit the Casino or dine at the Hotel.
 
    The Desert Passage will be designed to engage the customer in a highly
themed shopping, entertainment and dining experience. Of the approximately
522,000 square feet of retail space within the mall, it is anticipated that
approximately 25% will be devoted to high pedestrian traffic-generating food,
beverage and entertainment experiences. The food service facilities located in
the Desert Passage will consist predominantly of establishments which complement
the dining alternatives in the Aladdin. A significant feature of the Desert
Passage will be the themed area to be known as the "Lost City." The "Lost City"
is expected to contain a re-creation of an ancient mystical mountain city and
will house a variety of specialty shops and restaurants underneath a 10-story
high ceiling.
 
    CARPARK.  As part of the Mall Project, Bazaar will develop an approximately
4,800-space carpark facility, to be located at the rear of the Complex, together
with an additional approximately 350 surface level parking spaces. The Carpark
will be accessible from Audrie Lane, the same street from which the Paris Casino
public carpark will be accessed, and from the circular internal roadway on the
Complex (accessible from Harmon Avenue and the Strip) which will provide direct
vehicular access to the Hotel. The Carpark will be directly linked through the
Desert Passage to the Hotel and Casino and the Music Project. Bazaar is
considering retaining an independent management company to operate the Carpark.
 
    The Carpark and related surface level parking areas will include certain car
parking spaces to be used principally for valet parking. In addition, in
connection with the development of the Aladdin, parking facilities for
approximately 500 vehicles will be developed beneath the Hotel.
 
                                       66

THE MUSIC PROJECT
 
    THE MUSIC PROJECT HOTEL AND CASINO.  The Music Project is the second stage
of development to the Complex. The Music Project will involve the development of
a second hotel and casino, with a music and entertainment theme, on the
southeast edge of the Complex on the corner of Audrie Lane and Harmon Avenue.
AMH and a subsidiary of Planet Hollywood have entered into the Music Project
Memorandum of Understanding to own and operate the Music Project, subject to
finalization of financing, with each joint venture partner holding a 50%
interest (on a fully-diluted basis). See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall
Project and the Music Project" and "Certain Material Agreements--Music Project
Memorandum of Understanding."
 
    The Music Project is expected to include an approximately 1,000 room hotel,
four restaurants, including a music-themed restaurant which will feature its own
1,000-person nightclub with regular live entertainment, a health spa and outdoor
swimming pool, together with a 50,000 square foot casino. The Music Project will
aim to expand the market by having a different theme and attracting a different
market segment to the Aladdin. The Music Project is expected to appeal to the
upper-middle market, attracting younger, affluent customers to the Complex
through its music and entertainment-based theme. In order to enhance the
Complex, the Music Project is intended to be integrated through walkways,
bridges and the internal circular roadway with the Aladdin, the Desert Passage
and the Carpark, providing yet another attraction on the Complex and
contributing to its mixed-use nature.
 
   
    Through a subsidiary, Planet Hollywood will be a 50% partner (on a fully
diluted basis) in the Music Project. Planet Hollywood is a creator and worldwide
developer of consumer brands, most notably "Planet Hollywood" and the "Official
All Star Cafe," that capitalize on the appeal of the high-energy environment of
movies, sports and other entertainment-based themes. As of December 31, 1997,
there were 78 Planet Hollywood brand restaurants and nine Official All Star
Cafes brand restaurants worldwide. Planet Hollywood has announced that it
intends to position a brand of music-themed hotels and entertainment venues as
its third major brand. A distinguishing feature of the Music Project is the
anticipated active involvement of famous artists and celebrities, some of whom
are expected to be stockholders of Planet Hollywood, participate in the
marketing of Planet Hollywood's music-themed brand, perform at the Theater or
make other personal appearances at the Music Project, and help to generate
significant media attention and publicity. Brand recognition is expected to be
further enhanced through the high visibility of Planet Hollywood's music brand's
merchandise, such as jackets, T-shirts, sweatshirts and hats. The Company
believes this exposure will enhance the Aladdin by providing immediate
excitement and press coverage for the Complex. See "Risk Factors--Completion of
the Mall Project and the Music Project."
    
 
    It is currently anticipated that construction of the Music Project will
commence during the second half of 1998. Neither the development of the Aladdin
nor the Mall Project is contingent on the development of the Music Project.
 
    THEATER OF THE PERFORMING ARTS.  The Aladdin and the Desert Passage will be
adjacent to the Theater, a 7,000-seat entertainment facility that will be
accessible through the Casino. The Theater is an entertain-ment auditorium with
high-quality sight lines and acoustics and, with its 15,000 square foot stage,
is one of the few venues of its size and type in Nevada. As part of the
development of the Complex, the Company intends to enter into a 69-year lease of
the existing Theater for a nominal amount with Aladdin Music, which expects to
carry out an approximately $8 million renovation of the Theater, improving its
decor, light and sound systems and other facilities. The renovation will also
allow the Theater to be condensed into a smaller, approximately 2,000-seat
auditorium for more intimate performances. The Company will retain certain
rights to use the Theater for Company-promoted events at agreed commercial
rates.
 
    In the past the Theater has hosted major concert artists, championship
boxing matches and Broadway shows and it is expected that the Theater will
continue to be used to hold major concerts and theatrical performances. The
renovation and integration of the Theater into the first class resort Complex is
expected to provide another source of visitor traffic to the Complex.

THE LAS VEGAS MARKET
 
    OVERVIEW.  Las Vegas is one of the fastest growing entertainment markets in
the country. Las Vegas hotel occupancy rates are among the highest of any major
market in the United States. According to the LVCVA, the number of visitors
traveling to Las Vegas has increased at a steady and significant rate for the
last ten years from 16.2 million in 1987 to 30.4 million visitors in 1997, a
compound annual growth rate of 6.5%. Aggregate expenditures by these visitors
increased at a compound annual growth rate of 10.2% from $8.6 billion in 1986 to
approximately $25 billion in 1997. Although the number of visitors to Las Vegas
has increased, there has been a greater increase in the supply of hotel rooms.
Such competition and increased supply, with steady visitor counts, has affected
and may continue to affect room prices, occupancy rates and profits. See "Risk
Factors--Risk of Overcapacity; Competition and Planned Construction in Las
Vegas."
 
    EXPANDING HOTEL AND GAMING MARKET.  Las Vegas has one of the strongest and
most resilient hotel markets in the country and is the largest gaming market in
the world. The number of hotel and motel rooms in Las Vegas has increased by
71.6% from 61,394 in 1988 to 105,347 in 1997. Major properties on the Strip
opening over this time period include the Mirage, Excalibur, MGM Grand, Treasure
Island, the Luxor, Monte Carlo and New York New York. In addition, a number of
existing properties on the Strip embarked on expansions including Harrah's Las
Vegas, Caesars Palace, Circus Circus and the Luxor. Despite this significant
increase in the supply of rooms in Las Vegas, hotel occupancy rates exceeded on
average 90.4% for the years 1990 to 1996, averaged 93.4% in 1996 and averaged
90.3% in 1997. By the end of 1999, it is estimated that approximately 20,000
additional hotel rooms will be opened on the Strip, including the Bellagio, the
Venetian, Mandalay Bay and Paris resorts, all of which are currently under
construction.

    Gaming has continued to be a strong and growing business in Las Vegas.
According to the LVCVA, Clark County gaming revenues have increased at a
compound annual rate of 7.3% from approximately $2.8 billion in 1986 to
approximately $6.1 billion in 1997. As a result of the increased popularity of
gaming, Las Vegas has sought to increase its popularity as an overall vacation
resort destination. Management believes that the growth in the Las Vegas market
has been enhanced as a result of a dedicated program by the LVCVA and major Las
Vegas hotels to promote Las Vegas as a major vacation and convention site, the
increased capacity of McCarran Airport and the introduction of large, themed
destination resorts in Las Vegas. Notwithstanding, there has recently been
volatility in stock prices of Las Vegas-based gaming companies. The Issuers
believe this volatility is a result of a perceived saturation of the Las Vegas
market and uncertainty arising from the Asian economic downturn and its effect
on Asian gaming customers.
 
    GROWTH OF LAS VEGAS RETAIL SECTOR AND NON-GAMING REVENUE EXPENDITURES.  The
Las Vegas market continues to evolve from its historical gaming focus to a
broader entertainment offering. In addition to the traditional attractiveness of
gaming, the market is continuing to expand to include retail, sporting
activities, major concerts and other entertainment facilities. This
diversification has contributed to the growth of the market and broadened the
universe of individuals who would consider Las Vegas as a vacation destination.
The more diversified entertainment offerings present significant growth
opportunities.
 
    An increasing number of destination resorts are developing non-gaming
entertainment to complement their gaming activities in order to draw additional
visitors. According to the LVCVA, while gaming revenues in Clark County have
increased from approximately $2.8 billion in 1986 to approximately $6.1 billion
in 1997, the percentage of an average tourist's budget spent on gaming has
declined from 32.6% in 1986 to 25.8% in 1996 with non-gaming tourist revenues
increasing from $5.8 billion in 1986 to $16.7 billion in 1996. The newer large
theme destination resorts have been designed to capitalize on this development
by providing better quality sleeping rooms at higher rates and by providing
expanded shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities to their patrons in
addition to gaming.
 
    LAS VEGAS AS A CONVENTION CENTER ATTRACTION.  Las Vegas is one of the
largest convention and trade show destinations in the country. In 1987,
approximately 1.7 million persons attended conventions in Las Vegas providing
approximately $1.2 billion in non-gaming convention revenue. In 1997, the number
of convention attendees increased to more than 3.5 million, providing $4.4
billion in non-gaming convention revenue. Las Vegas offers convention and trade
shows unique infrastructure for handling the world's largest shows, including a
concentration of high-end hotel rooms located on the Strip, two convention
centers with a total of over 2.3 million square feet of convention and
exhibition space and unparalleled entertainment options. The proposed expansion
of the Las Vegas Convention Center ("LVCC") and the planned construction of the
Congress Center will further increase convention and exhibit space. Management
believes that Las Vegas will continue to evolve as one of the country's
preferred convention destinations.
 
    MCCARRAN AIRPORT EXPANSION.  During the past five years, the facilities of
McCarran Airport, the tenth busiest airport in the United States, have been
expanded to accommodate the increased number of airlines and passengers which it
services. The number of passengers traveling through McCarran Airport has
increased from approximately 15.6 million in 1987 to approximately 30.3 million
in 1997, a compound annual growth rate of 6.7%. According to the LVCVA, in 1997
visitors to Las Vegas arrived by the following methods of transportation: 47% by
air; 41% by auto; 6% by bus; and 5% by recreational vehicle. An approximately
$500 million expansion project at McCarran Airport is scheduled for completion
in 1998. Long-term expansion plans for McCarran Airport provide for additional
runways, three new satellite concourses, 65 additional gates, improved public
transportation, roads and other infrastructure leading from McCarran Airport to
the Strip and other facilities which would allow McCarran Airport to
significantly increase visitor capacity. To the extent that McCarran Airport is
not expanded in accordance with its plans, the occupancy rates and average daily
hotel room rates in Las Vegas could be adversely affected due to the planned
construction of new hotel rooms. During the first quarter of 1998, visitor
counts at McCarran Airport were down 4.1% from the same period in 1997. Airline
traffic is a significant
 
                                       75
<PAGE>
contributor to the overall visitor volume to Las Vegas as approximately 44% of
visitors arrive by air. A reduction in visitation to the market could result in
lower average room rates, lower hotel occupancy percentages and reduce revenues
for the Company.
 
    STATISTICS ON THE LAS VEGAS GAMING INDUSTRY.  The following table sets forth
certain information derived from published reports of the LVCVA and the Nevada
State Gaming Control Board concerning Las Vegas Strip gaming revenues and
visitor volume and hotel data for the years 1986 to 1997. As shown in the table,
the Las Vegas market has achieved significant growth in visitor volume and
tourist revenues and favorably absorbed significant additional room capacity
despite the occurrence of a series of adverse economic, regulatory and
competitive events during the past decade such as the recession of the early
1990s, the expansion of gaming into new jurisdictions, the modification of
existing regulations in other jurisdictions and the expansion of Native American
gaming.

CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND BUDGET
 
   
    The development of the Aladdin commenced during the first quarter of 1998.
The original Aladdin hotel and casino closed for business on November 25, 1997
and the implosion of the original facility is occurred on April 27, 1998. The
development of the Mall Project is expected to commence during the second
quarter of 1998, followed soon thereafter by the commencement of the development
of the Music Project in the second half of 1998. The Company anticipates the
cost of developing, financing, constructing and opening the Aladdin to be
approximately $790 million (excluding the Company's $21.3 million planned
indirect cash contribution and $15.0 million appraised fair market value land
contribution to Aladdin Music, as part of the development funds for the Music
Project). Pursuant to the Design/Build Contract, the Design/Builder has
committed itself to a 26 month work schedule to complete the Aladdin, subject to
certain scope changes. An equitable adjustment in the Contract Date (as defined
herein) and guaranteed maximum price will be made for changes that either
increase or decrease the Design/Builders' time for performance and/or cost of
construction. See "Certain Material Agreements--Design/Build Contract." The
Company believes that the construction budget is reasonable and the Design/Build
Contract sets forth a procedure designed to ensure the timely completion of the
Aladdin. However, given the risks inherent in the construction process, it is
possible that construction costs could be significantly higher than budget and
that delays could occur. If construction costs do exceed the amounts set forth
in the construction budget, it is expected the potential sources to pay such
excess include (a) the $31.8 million Contingency; (b) London Clubs, the Trust,
and Bazaar Holdings pursuant to their obligations under the Bank Completion
Guaranty; and (c) the Design/Builder, a subsidiary of Fluor, pursuant to its
liability under the Design/Build Contract, which liability is guaranteed by
Fluor pursuant to the Fluor Guaranty. As of May 31, 1998, the Company has
expended $1.7 million under the Contingency. See "Risk Factors--Risks of New
Construction" and "--Risks Under Design/Build Contract and Fluor Guaranty" and
"Certain Material Agreements."
    
 
    The Mall Project is not being developed by the Company, but is being
developed by Bazaar. The Mall Project is budgeted to cost approximately $259.0
million, all of which amount will be paid by Bazaar. Upon completion of the Mall
Financing, TrizecHahn, the Trust, Bazaar Holdings and AHL agreed to guarantee
completion of the Mall Project and Bazaar's indebtedness to the Mall Lenders
until certain earnings and loan to value targets have been met. See "Risk
Factors--Risk of New Construction" and "--Completion of the Mall Project and the
Music Project," "Use of Proceeds" and "Certain Material Agreements--Bazaar LLC
Operating Agreement."
 
   
    The Aladdin, together with the Mall Project, will be developed as the first
phase of a planned two-phase redevelopment of the Complex. In the second phase,
Aladdin Music will develop the Music Project which, like the Mall Project, will
be financed independently and such financing will not be guaranteed by the
Company. It is expected that upon the completion of the division of the Project
Site into separate legal parcels, the Company will be required to transfer
ownership of the land parcel upon which the Music Project will be built to
Aladdin Music. The opening of the Music Project is expected to occur within six
months after the opening of the Aladdin. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the
Mall Project and the Music Project," "--Possible Conflicts of Interest" and
"Certain Material Agreements--The Music Project Memorandum of Understanding."
    
 
    The completion and full operation of the Aladdin is not contingent upon the
subsequent financing or completion of the Mall Project or the Music Project.
Investors should note that funding arrangements for the completion of the Music
Project have not yet been finalized and funding under the Mall Financing is
subject to certain conditions, and there can be no assurance that such funding
arrangements for the Music Project will be finalized at any time or that the
Mall Project or Music Project will be completed. See "Risk Factors--Completion
of the Mall Project and the Music Project."
 
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION TEAM
 
    The Company has assembled what it believes to be a highly qualified team of
specialists to design and construct the Aladdin.
 
    TISHMAN.  Tishman has been appointed as the construction manager for the
Aladdin. Tishman is a privately-held construction firm. Tishman or its
affiliates have built or renovated over 30,000 hotel rooms
 
                                       78
<PAGE>
nationwide, including the 500-room, one million square foot Golden Nugget hotel
and casino in Atlantic City, the 635-room, two million square foot Trump Castle
Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, the 400-room expansion of Harrah's Hotel and
Casino in Atlantic City, the 2,300-room Walt Disney World Dolphin and Swan Hotel
and convention complex, the 1,200-room Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers, the
800-room Hilton in Walt Disney World Village and the 600-room Westin Rio Mar
Beach Resort & Country Club.
 
    Entertainment projects built by Tishman include Caesars Magical Empire in
Las Vegas, several Official All Star Cafes throughout the United States, the
Goodwill Games '98 Aquatics Center, Pacific Park in California, restoration of
the New Amsterdam Theater in New York and EPCOT Center in Orlando, Florida.
 
    FLUOR DANIEL.  Fluor Daniel, Inc. is the design/builder for the Aladdin. The
Design/Builder is a subsidiary of Fluor, a Fortune 500 Company offering
architectural, engineering, construction management, construction and
maintenance services to projects around the world. The Design/Builder has been
ranked the number one engineering and construction company in the United States
based on total revenue by Engineering News-Record for nine of the last ten
years. In October 1997, the Design/Builder was recognized by Fortune as the most
admired public engineering firm in the world. The Design/Builder has entered
into a guaranteed maximum price Design/Build Contract (subject to scope changes)
with the Company to design and construct the Aladdin. The Design/Build Contract
provides the Design/Builder with incentives for completing the Aladdin ahead of
schedule and within budget and for payment of liquidated damages to the Company
for certain delays. The Design/Build Contract is guaranteed by Fluor, the parent
of the Design/Builder, pursuant to the Fluor Guaranty. See "Certain Material
Agreements-- Design/Build Contract." On May 29, 1998, Fluor had an equity market
capitalization of over $3.9 billion.
 
    ADP/FD OF NEVADA, INC.  ADP, an indirect subsidiary of Fluor, will be the
Complex architect. ADP is wholly-owned by ADP Marshall, Inc. ("ADP Marshall").
ADP Marshall, which is based in Phoenix, Arizona, is well-known for its
architecture work and mixed-use projects. Such projects include resorts, hotels,
timeshare/vacation ownership, gaming, mixed-use/planning, recreational (golf
clubs, spas, tennis centers, etc.) and specialty entertainment/retail/restaurant
projects. Among ADP Marshall's many award-winning efforts are Five Star ranked
properties. Its client list includes Princess Hotels, Inc. (Scottsdale and
Acapulco), Carefree Resorts (The Boulders, The Peaks, Carmel Valley Ranch) and
PGA Family Golf Center (Scottsdale).
 
    ADP's philosophy is that design and systems efficiency must support the
operations of a project, especially where the client has a long-term involvement
in the completed development. The firm aims to establish strong client
relationships by thoroughly understanding its clients' needs, the intricacies of
their operations and their development, financial and market specific goals.
 
    TRIZECHAHN.  THB, a wholly-owned subsidiary of TrizecHahn, is the joint
venture partner of Bazaar Holdings in the Mall Project. Prior to its recently
announced sale of 20 regional shopping centers, TrizecHahn owned and managed 27
regional centers in major markets throughout the United States, comprising over
25 million square feet, and was one of the largest owners, developers and
managers of regional shopping centers in the United States. Investors should
note that TrizecHahn has announced that it is considering selling its operating
portfolio of regional shopping centers and on April 6, 1998 announced the sale
of 20 regional shopping centers for over $2.5 billion. While TrizecHahn's
announcement is limited to the sale of its current operating portfolio of
regional shopping centers, there can be no assurance that TrizecHahn will not
similarly decide to sell its interest in the Desert Passage. Accordingly,
investors cannot be assured that TrizecHahn will own and operate the Desert
Passage once it becomes operational, and as a result, pedestrian traffic to the
Aladdin may decrease. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall Project and the
Music Project."
 
    BBGM.  The interior designer for the project, BBGM, specializes in
hospitality design and has experience in casinos, restaurants, retail,
spa/fitness centers and specialty/theme projects. BBGM's experience includes the
recently renovated and expanded Caesars Atlantic City hotel, casino, restaurants
and public space. Other projects have included the Mohegan Sun Casino in
Connecticut and TropWorld in
 
                                       79
<PAGE>
Atlantic City. BBGM's hotel projects have included the St. Regis, The Plaza and
the Sheraton Hotel & Towers located in New York City.
 
   
    THE ENERGY PROVIDER.  The Energy Provider, a wholly-owned subsidiary of UTH,
will be the energy provider for certain parts of the Complex, including the
Aladdin. The predecessor to UTH was founded in July 1993 as a subsidiary of
Unicom to develop district energy projects. Unicom is listed on the New York
Stock Exchange. Unicom is also the parent of Commonwealth Edison Company, one of
the largest electric utilities in the United States. Since 1993, UTH has
developed the largest district cooling system in the world, located in Chicago,
Illinois, and is a partner in energy ventures in Boston, Houston and Windsor,
Ontario.
    
 
OPERATIONAL FACILITIES
 
    The Complex has been designed to include certain operational facilities and
advantages which will assist the Company in providing a high level of service to
guests.
 
    SERVICE FACILITIES.  The north side of the Complex will border on a service
road, which will include service elevators, loading docks, receiving and
purchasing facilities and storage areas. These service facilities will be
located near the majority of the Complex's restaurants and food service areas,
which will be the principal users of such facilities.
 
    ELEVATOR BANKS.  The Hotel will be designed so that elevator banks are
located at strategic locations, enabling Hotel guests and employees to access
the Hotel guest areas easily. Within the Hotel, special waiter elevators will
provide waiters with direct access from Hotel kitchens to rooms and suites,
allowing guests to receive full room service on a timely basis.
 
    ENERGY.  The Complex, once fully constructed, will require substantial
amounts of electricity, hot and cold water and heating and cooling. For this
purpose, the Company has entered into certain agreements with the Energy
Provider for the supply of electricity and heating and cooling to certain parts
of the Complex. The Energy Provider has agreed to provide the Aladdin with all
its electricity, heating and cooling needs, as specified by the Company, from
the date of completion of the Aladdin. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, in
order to supply the Aladdin's energy requirements, the Energy Provider has
agreed to construct and operate, at its own cost, a thermal energy plant (the
"Plant") on an approximately 0.64 acre portion of the Complex (the "Plant
Site"). The Energy Provider's obligations under the Development Agreement are
guaranteed up to $30.0 million by the Energy Provider's ultimate parent, Unicom,
one of the largest electric utility companies in the United States. See "Certain
Material Agreements--Development Agreement," "--Unicom Guaranty" and "--Energy
Service Agreement."
 
    The Music Project will also use electricity, hot and cold water and heating
and cooling supplied by the Energy Provider. TrizecHahn will utilize the Plant
for the provision of electricity and cold water for the Mall Project.
 
    SECURITY.  The Aladdin will include state-of-the-art security systems,
including internally operated camera surveillance systems for the Casino. The
Company will employ extensive supervision and accounting procedures to control
the handling of cash in the Casino. These measures will include security
personnel, closed-circuit television for observation of critical areas of the
casino, locked cash boxes, independent auditors and observers, strict sign-in
and sign-out procedures which ensure, to the extent practicable, that gaming
chips issued by and returned to the Casino cashiers' cages are accurately
accounted for, and procedures for the regular observation of gaming employees.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
    The Company anticipates that immediately prior to completion of the Aladdin,
it will employ approximately 3,600 employees in connection with the Aladdin. The
Company will be required to undertake a major recruiting and training program
prior to the opening of the Aladdin at a time when other major new facilities
may be approaching completion and also recruiting employees. The Company
believes it will be able to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified
individuals to operate the Aladdin. However, there can be no assurance that it
will be able to do so. Furthermore, the Company does
 
                                       80
<PAGE>
not know whether or to what extent such employees will be covered by collective
bargaining agreements, as that determination will be ultimately made by such
employees.
 
SERVICE MARKS
 
    On the Issue Date, AHL transferred to the Company four federally registered
service marks involving the word "Aladdin" and used in connection with the
provision of casino and casino entertainment services and hotel and restaurant
services (the "Marks"). Two of the Marks were registered on July 13, 1993, a
third on July 29, 1993 and the fourth on August 24, 1993. A statement of
continuing use with respect to each of the Marks must be filed with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office (the "PTO") between the fifth and sixth
anniversary of the date such Mark was registered in order to maintain the
effectiveness of the registration with respect to such Mark. Although the
Company will not be using the Marks during the period of the Aladdin's
construction, the Company does not expect that this will adversely affect its
registration of the Marks, provided that the reason for the non-use of the Marks
is explained to the PTO at the time the statement of continuing use is filed.
Each of the registrations for the Marks has a duration of ten years and, unless
renewed, will expire on the tenth anniversary of such Mark's date of
registration. The Company has recorded its ownership of the Marks with the PTO.
A lien on the Marks was granted to the Bank Lenders on the Issue Date. See
"Description of Certain Indebtedness and Other Obligations--Bank Credit
Facility."
 
INSURANCE
 
    Prior to the commencement of operation of the Aladdin, the Company intends
to obtain the types and amounts of insurance coverage that it considers
appropriate for a company in its business. While management intends to ensure
that the Company's insurance coverage will be adequate, if the Company were held
liable for amounts exceeding the limits of its insurance coverage or for claims
outside of the scope of its insurance coverage, the Company's business and
results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
 
    With respect to the construction of the Aladdin, the Company and the
Design/Builder have elected to implement a controlled insurance program (the
"CIP") whereby the Design/Builder will provide General Liability, Workers'
Compensation, Excess Liability, Contractual Liability, Builders Risk and Transit
coverages for the Design/Builder and all subcontractors. The Company will pay
the Design/Builder for all premiums and costs associated with the CIP. Where
necessary, the Company will be named as a named insured or as an additional
insured on each policy procured by the Design/Builder pursuant to the CIP. In
addition, in lieu of procuring a liquidated damages insurance policy or a
business interruption insurance policy to compensate for late completion of the
Aladdin, the Company has paid the Design/Builder $2.0 million as a bonus
advance. The Design/Builder may elect to purchase liquidated damages insurance
or it may elect to self-insure. In either event, the Design/Builder is entitled
to keep the bonus advance if the Aladdin is finished on or before the date set
for Substantial Completion (as defined herein) (the "Contract Date"). As a
further bonus, the Design/Builder will receive $100,000 for each day, up to but
not to exceed 90 days, that the Aladdin is substantially completed in advance of
the Contract Date. If the Aladdin is not substantially completed by the Contract
Date, the Design/Builder must pay back the advance bonus plus $100,000 per day
commencing on the first day following the Contract Date and continuing up to 90
days thereafter. See "Certain Material Agreements--Design/Build Contract."
 
LITIGATION
 
    The Company and the Issuers are not currently party to any pending claim or
legal action. However, Mr. Jack Sommer, who is the Chairman of the Holdings
Board and the Company Board (each as defined herein), a director of Holdings,
Capital, the Company and Enterprises and a trustee of the Trust, and the other
trustees of the Trust are currently co-defendants in a legal action relating to
the original Aladdin hotel and casino. See "Controlling Stockholders--Trust
Litigation."

<PAGE>
                            REGULATION AND LICENSING
 
    The ownership and operation of casino gaming facilities in the State of
Nevada are subject to: (i) the Nevada Gaming Control Act and the regulations
promulgated thereunder (collectively, the "Nevada Act"); and (ii) various local
regulations. The operation of the Casino by the Company will be subject to the
licensing and regulatory control of the Nevada Gaming Commission (the "Nevada
Commission"), the Nevada State Gaming Control Board (the "Nevada Board"), and
the Clark County Liquor and Gaming Licensing Board (the "CCLGLB"). The Nevada
Commission, the Nevada Board, and the CCLGLB are collectively referred to as the
"Nevada Gaming Authorities."
 
    The laws, regulations and supervisory procedures of the Nevada Gaming
Authorities are based upon declarations of public policy that are concerned
with, among other things: (i) the prevention of unsavory or unsuitable persons
from having a direct or indirect involvement with gaming at any time or in any
capacity; (ii) the establishment and maintenance of responsible accounting
practices and procedures; (iii) the maintenance of effective controls over the
financial practices of licensees, including the establishment of minimum
procedures for internal fiscal affairs and the safeguarding of assets and
revenues, providing reliable record keeping and requiring the filing of periodic
reports with the Nevada Gaming Authorities; (iv) the prevention of cheating and
fraudulent practices; and (v) providing a source of state and local revenues
through taxation and licensing fees. Any change in such laws, regulations and
procedures could have a material adverse effect on the proposed gaming
operations of the Aladdin and the financial condition and results of operations
of the Company and so the Issuers.
 
    As operator and manager of the Aladdin, the Company will conduct
nonrestricted gaming operations at the Casino and so will be required to be
licensed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. A nonrestricted gaming license
permits the holder to operate sixteen or more slot machines, or any number of
slot machines with at least one table game. The gaming license will require the
periodic payment of fees and will not be transferable. No person will be able to
become a member of, or receive any percentage of the profits of, the Company
without first obtaining Gaming Approvals. In connection with licensing of the
Company, Holdings will be required to be registered and found suitable as a
holding company of the Company and to be licensed as a member of the Company. In
connection with the registration and licensing of Holdings as a holding company
and a member, each direct and indirect owner of Holdings, including, but not
limited to, Enterprises, London Clubs, LCNI, London Clubs Holdings Ltd. (a
wholly owned subsidiary of London Clubs and the holding company for LCNI) AHL,
the Trust, Sommer Enterprises, GAI and their respective owners (all such parties
collectively, the "Aladdin Owners") will be required to obtain from the Nevada
Gaming Authorities applicable Gaming Approvals. Capital will also be subject to
being called forward for a finding of suitability as a co-issuer of the Notes
and the New Notes in the discretion of the Nevada Gaming Authorities.
 
    Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer, Holdings will be a "publicly
traded corporation" as that term is defined in the Nevada Act. If the Company
becomes an IPO Entity, it will also become a "publicly traded corporation" as
that term is defined in the Nevada Act. In order for a company that is a
publicly traded corporation to receive a gaming license, the Nevada Commission
must exempt the company from a regulatory provision in the Nevada Act which
makes publicly traded corporations ineligible to apply for or hold a gaming
license. However, the Nevada Commission has exempted companies from this
provision in the past and has granted gaming licenses to publicly traded
corporations. If the Company becomes an IPO Entity, the Company intends to apply
for an exemption from this eligibility requirement (the "Exemption") in
connection with its application for a gaming license. In connection with
licensing and receipt of the Exemption, Holdings, London Clubs, Enterprises and
the Company will each also be required to be registered by the Nevada Commission
as a publicly traded corporation (a "Registered Company"). The following
regulatory requirements will be applicable to the Company, Holdings and the
Aladdin Owners upon their receipt of all necessary Gaming Approvals from the
Nevada Gaming Authorities. The Company, Holdings and the Aladdin Owners have not
yet obtained from the Nevada Gaming Authorities the Gaming Approvals required in
order for the Company to conduct gaming operations at the Aladdin

and there can be no assurances given that such Gaming Approvals will be
obtained, or that they will be obtained on a timely basis. There can also be no
assurances that the Company's officers, managers and key employees will obtain
Gaming Approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities.
 
    As a Registered Company and Company Licensee, the Company will be required
to periodically submit detailed financial information and operating reports to
the Nevada Commission and furnish any other information that the Nevada
Commission may require. No person may become a member of, or receive any
percentage of profits from a Company Licensee without first obtaining licenses
and approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities.
 
    The Nevada Gaming Authorities may investigate any individual who has a
material relationship to, or material involvement with, the Company, Holdings
and the Aladdin Owners to determine whether such individual is suitable or
should be licensed as a business associate of a Company Licensee. Officers,
managers and certain key employees of the Company and Holdings must file
applications with the Nevada Gaming Authorities and will be required to be
licensed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities in connection with the Company's
application. The Nevada Gaming Authorities may deny an application for licensing
or a finding of suitability for any cause they deem reasonable. A finding of
suitability is comparable to licensing, and both require submission of detailed
personal and financial information followed by a thorough investigation. The
applicant for licensing or a finding of suitability, or the gaming licensee by
whom the applicant is employed or for whom the applicant serves, must pay all
the costs of the investigation. Changes in licensed positions must be reported
to the Nevada Gaming Authorities, and in addition to their authority to deny an
application for a finding of suitability or licensure, the Nevada Gaming
Authorities have jurisdiction to disapprove a change in a company position.
 
    If the Nevada Gaming Authorities were to find an officer, manager or key
employee of the Company or Holdings unsuitable for licensing or to continue
having a relationship with the Company or Holdings, the Company or Holdings, as
the case may be, would have to sever all relationships with such person. In
addition, the Nevada Commission may require the Company or Holdings, as the case
may be, to terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file
appropriate applications. Determinations of suitability or of questions
pertaining to licensing are not subject to judicial review in Nevada.
 
    The Company will be required to submit detailed financial and operating
reports to the Nevada Commission. Substantially all material loans, leases,
sales of securities and similar financing transactions by the Company will be
required to be reported to or approved by the Nevada Commission. If the Company
is licensed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities, any (i) guarantees of the Notes
issued by the Company or its members, (ii) hypothecation of assets of the
Company as security for the Notes, and pledges of the equity securities of the
Company as security for the Notes will require the approval of the Nevada
Commission in order to remain effective. An approval by the Nevada Commission of
a pledge of equity securities does not constitute approval to foreclose on such
pledge. Separate approval is required to foreclose on a pledge of equity
securities of a Company Licensee and such approval requires the licensing of the
indenture trustee unless such requirement is waived upon the application of the
indenture trustee. Additionally, any (i) restrictions on the transfer of, and
(ii) agreements not to encumber the equity securities of the Company in respect
of the Notes may require the approval of the Nevada Commission in order to
remain effective.
 
    If it were determined that the Nevada Act was violated by the Company or
Holdings, the Gaming Approvals they hold could be limited, conditioned,
suspended or revoked, subject to compliance with certain statutory and
regulatory procedures. In addition, the Company, Holdings and the persons
involved could be subject to substantial fines for each separate violation of
the Nevada Act at the discretion of the Nevada Commission. Further, a supervisor
could be appointed by the Nevada Commission to operate the Aladdin and, under
certain circumstances, earnings generated during the supervisor's appointment
(except for the reasonable rental value of the Aladdin) could be forfeited to
the State of Nevada. Limitation, conditioning or suspension of any Gaming
Approval or license or the appointment of a supervisor could
 
                                       83

(and revocation of any Gaming Approval would) materially adversely affect the
gaming operations of the Aladdin and the financial position and results of
operations of the Company and the Issuers.
 
    Any beneficial holder of a Registered Company's voting or non-voting
securities (including warrants exercisable into such securities), regardless of
the number of shares owned, may be required to file an application, be
investigated, and have his suitability as a beneficial holder of the Registered
Company's securities determined if the Nevada Commission has reason to believe
that such ownership would otherwise be inconsistent with the declared policies
of the state of Nevada. The applicant must pay all costs of investigation
incurred by the Nevada Gaming Authorities in conducting any such investigation.
 
    The Nevada Act requires any person who acquires beneficial ownership of more
than 5% of a Registered Company's voting securities (including warrants
exercisable into voting securities) to report the acquisition to the Nevada
Commission. The Nevada Act requires that beneficial owners of more than 10% of a
Registered Company's voting securities apply to the Nevada Commission for a
finding of suitability within thirty days after the Chairman of the Nevada Board
mails the written notice requiring such filing. Under certain circumstances, an
"institutional investor," as defined in the Nevada Act, which acquires more than
10%, but not more than 15%, of the Registered Company's voting securities
(including warrants exercisable into voting securities) may apply to the Nevada
Commission for a waiver of such finding of suitability if such institutional
investor holds the voting securities for investment purposes only. An
institutional investor shall not be deemed to hold voting securities for
investment purposes unless the voting securities were acquired and are held in
the ordinary course of business as an institutional investor and not for the
purpose of causing, directly or indirectly, the election of a majority of the
members of the board of directors of the Registered Company, and change in the
Registered Company's corporate charter, bylaws, management, policies or
operations of the Registered Company, or any of its gaming affiliates, or any
other action which the Nevada Commission finds to be inconsistent with holding
the Company's voting securities for investment purposes only. Activities which
are not deemed to be inconsistent with holding voting securities for investment
purposes only include: (i) voting on all matters voted on by stockholders or
interest holders; (ii) making financial and other inquiries of management of the
type normally made by securities analysts for informational purposes and not to
cause a change in its management, policies or operations; and (iii) such other
activities as the Nevada Commission may determine to be consistent with such
investment intent. If the beneficial holder of voting securities who must be
found suitable in a corporation, partnership or trust, it must submit detailed
business and financial information including a list of beneficial owners. The
applicant is required to pay all costs of investigation.
 
    Any person who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a
license within thirty days after being ordered to do so by the Nevada Commission
or the Chairman of the Nevada Board, may be found unsuitable. The same
restrictions apply to a record owner if the record owner, after request, fails
to identify the beneficial owner. Any stockholder or beneficial owner found
unsuitable and who holds, directly or indirectly, any beneficial ownership of
the common stock or other equity securities of a Registered Company beyond such
period of time as may be prescribed by the Nevada Commission may be guilty of a
criminal offense. The Registered Company is subject to disciplinary action if,
after it receives notice that a person is unsuitable to be a stockholder or to
have any other relationship with the Company, the Registered Company (i) pays
that person any dividend, distribution or interest upon voting securities of the
Registered Company, (ii) allows that person to exercise, directly or indirectly,
any voting right conferred through securities held by that person, (iii) pays
remuneration in any form to that person for services rendered or otherwise, or
(iv) fails to pursue all lawful efforts to require such unsuitable person to
relinquish his voting securities including, if necessary, the immediate purchase
of said voting securities for cash at fair market value.
 
    The Nevada Commission may, in its discretion, require the holder of any debt
security of a Registered Company (such as the Notes) to file an application, be
investigated and be found suitable to own the debt security of a Registered
Company. If the Nevada Commission determines that a person is unsuitable to own
such security, then pursuant to the Nevada Act, the Registered Company can be
sanctioned, including
 
                                       84
<PAGE>
the loss of its approvals, if without the prior approval of the Nevada
Commission, it: (i) pays to the unsuitable person any dividend, interest, or any
distribution whatsoever; (ii) recognizes any voting right by such unsuitable
person in connection with such securities; (iii) pays the unsuitable person
remuneration in any form; or (iv) makes any payment to the unsuitable person by
way of principal, redemption, conversion, exchange, liquidation, or similar
transaction.
 
    The Company will be required to maintain a current members' ledger in Nevada
that may be examined by the Nevada Gaming Authorities at any time. The Nevada
Commission has the power to require that their respective members' certificates
bear a legend indicating that such securities are subject to the Nevada Act. It
is unknown at this time whether the Nevada Commission will impose this
requirement on the Company.
 
    After becoming a Registered Company, London Clubs, Enterprises, the Company
and Holdings may not make a public offering of any securities (including, but
not limited to, the Common Stock of Enterprises upon the exercise of the
Warrants) without the prior approval of the Nevada Commission if the securities
or the proceeds therefrom are intended to be used to construct, acquire or
finance gaming facilities in Nevada, or to retire or extend obligations incurred
for such purposes. Such approval, if given, does not constitute a finding,
recommendation or approval by the Nevada Commission or the Nevada Board as to
the accuracy or adequacy of the prospectus or the investment merits of the
securities. Any representation to the contrary is unlawful.
 
    The regulations of the Nevada Board and the Nevada Commission also provide
that any entity which is not an "affiliated company," as such term is defined in
the Nevada Act, or which is not otherwise subject to the provisions of the
Nevada Act or such regulations, such as the Company and Holdings, which plans to
make a public offering of securities intending to use such securities, or the
proceeds from the sale thereof for the construction or operation of gaming
facilities in Nevada, or to retire or extend obligations incurred for such
purposes, may apply to the Nevada Commission for prior approval of such
offering. The Nevada Commission may find an applicant unsuitable based solely on
the fact that it did not submit such an application, unless upon a written
request for a ruling, the Nevada Board Chairman has ruled that it is not
necessary to submit an application. The Exchange Offer will qualify as a public
offering. Holdings has filed a written request (the "Ruling Request") with the
Nevada Board Chairman for a ruling that it is not necessary to submit the
Exchange Offer for prior approval. No assurance can be given that the Ruling
Request will be granted or that it will be considered on a timely basis. If the
Nevada Board Chairman rules that approval of the Exchange Offer is required,
Holdings will file an application for such approval. If the Ruling Request is
not granted, the Exchange Offer could be significantly delayed while Holdings
seeks approval of the Nevada Board and the Nevada Commission for the Exchange
Offer. No assurance can be given that approval of the Exchange Offer, if
required, will be granted. If Holdings or the Company shall become an IPO Entity
prior to receiving its Gaming Approvals, they intend to file a Ruling Request
with the Nevada Board Chairman for a ruling that it is not necessary to submit
the Qualified Public Offering for prior approval. No assurance can be given that
such a Ruling Request will be granted or that it will be considered on a timely
basis. If the Nevada Board Chairman rules that approval of the Qualified Public
Offering is required, the Company or Holdings, as applicable, will file an
application for such approval. If the Ruling Request is not granted, the
Qualified Public Offering could be significantly delayed while the Company or
Holdings seeks approval of the Nevada Board and the Nevada Commission for the
Qualified Public Offering. No assurance can be given that approval of the
Qualified Public Offering, if required, will be granted.
 
    Changes in control of a Registered Company through merger, consolidation,
stock or asset acquisitions, management or consulting agreements, or any act or
conduct by a person whereby he obtains control, may not occur without the prior
approval of the Nevada Commission. Entities seeking to acquire control of a
Registered Company must satisfy the Nevada Board and Nevada Commission in a
variety of stringent standards prior to assuming control of such Registered
Company. The Nevada Commission may also require controlling stockholders,
officers, directors and other persons having a material relationship or
 
                                       85
<PAGE>
involvement with the entity proposing to acquire control, to be investigated and
licensed as part of the approval process relating to the transaction.
 
    The Nevada legislature has declared that some corporate acquisitions opposed
by management, repurchases of voting securities and corporate defense tactics
affecting Nevada gaming licensees, and Registered Companies that are affiliated
with those operations, may be injurious to stable and productive corporate
gaming. The Nevada Commission has established a regulatory scheme to ameliorate
the potentially adverse effects of these business practices upon Nevada's gaming
industry and to further Nevada's policy to: (i) assure the financial stability
of corporate gaming operators and their affiliates; (ii) preserve the beneficial
aspects of conducting business in the corporate form; and (iii) promote a
neutral environment for the orderly governance of corporate affairs. Approvals
are, in certain circumstances, required from the Nevada Commission before the
Registered Company can make exceptional repurchases of voting securities above
the current market price thereof and before a corporate acquisition opposed by
management can be consummated. The Nevada Act also requires prior approval of a
plan of recapitalization proposed by the Registered Company's Board of Directors
in response to a tender offer made directly to the Registered Company's
stockholders or interest holders for the purposes of acquiring of the Registered
Company.
 
    License fees and taxes, computed in various ways depending on the type of
gaming or activity involved, are payable to the State of Nevada and to Clark
County, Nevada. Depending upon the particular fee or tax involved, these fees
and taxes are payable either monthly, quarterly or annually and are based upon
either: (i) a percentage of the gross revenues received; (ii) the number of
gaming devices operated; or (iii) the number of table games operated. A casino
entertainment tax also will also be paid by the Company where certain
entertainment is provided in a cabaret, nightclub, cocktail lounge or casino
showroom in connection with admissions and the serving or selling of food,
refreshments or merchandise.
 
    Any person who is licensed, required to be licensed, registered, required to
be registered, or is under common control with such persons (collectively,
"Licensees"), and who proposes to become involved in a gaming venture outside of
Nevada, is required to deposit with the Nevada Board and thereafter maintain, a
revolving fund in the amount of $10,000 to pay the expenses of investigation by
the Nevada Board of their participation in such foreign gaming. The revolving
fund is subject to increase or decrease at the discretion of the Nevada
Commission. Thereafter, Licensees are also required to comply with certain
reporting requirements imposed by the Nevada Act. Licensees are also subject to
disciplinary action by the Nevada Commission if they knowingly violate any laws
of the foreign jurisdiction pertaining to the foreign gaming operation, fail to
conduct the foreign gaming operation in accordance with the standards of honesty
and integrity required of Nevada gaming operations, engage in activities or
enter into associations that are harmful to the State of Nevada or its ability
to collect gaming taxes and fees, or employ, contract with or associate with a
person in the foreign operation who has been denied a license or a finding of
suitability in Nevada on the ground of personal unsuitability.
 
    The sale of alcoholic beverages by the Company on the premises of the
Aladdin is also subject to licensing, control and regulation by the CCLGLB. All
licenses are revocable and are not transferable. The CCLGLB have full power to
limit, condition, suspend or revoke any such license, and any such disciplinary
action could (and revocation would) have a material adverse effect on the
financial position and results of operations of the Company and the Issuers.

    $50,000.
 
(5) Mr. Goeglein purchased unvested Holdings Common Membership Interests
    representing 2% of the outstanding Holdings Common Membership Interests for
    a purchase price of $1,200. Such interests had a fair market value of $1,200

                                       90
<PAGE>
    date of purchase. Twenty-five percent of such interests vest on the date of
    the opening of the Aladdin and an additional 25% vests on each annual
    anniversary of such opening date.
 
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
 
    Richard J. Goeglein, James H. McKennon, Cornelius T. Klerk, Lee A. Galati
and Jose A. Rueda (the "Officers") each signed an employment agreement (each, an
"Employment Agreement") with the Company during 1997. David Attaway and Patricia
Becker are currently negotiating employment agreements with the Company which
are expected to be comparable to the employment agreements discussed herein. The
terms of the Employment Agreements were amended on February 26, 1998 such that
Holdings became a party and the Officers contributed their Restricted Membership
Interests in the Company to Holdings in return for Restricted Membership
Interests in Holdings. The initial term of Mr. Goeglein's Employment Agreement
is five years and six months, and the remaining Officers' Employment Agreements
have an initial duration of four years. Pursuant to each Employment Agreement,
the Officers have such authority, responsibilities and duties as are customarily
associated with their positions with the Company. The Employment Agreements
provide that, during the term of their employment, the Officers will devote
their full time, efforts and attention to the business and affairs of the
Company.
 
    The terms of the Employment Agreements provide for an annual base salary for
Mr. Goeglein, Mr. McKennon, Mr. Klerk, Mr. Galati and Mr. Rueda of $500,000
($600,000 after the opening of the Aladdin), $325,000 ($350,000 effective April
1998), $200,000, $150,000 and $250,000, respectively, plus any bonus granted by
the Board of Directors based on relevant criteria and performance standards. All
of the Officers have been receiving and are expected to continue to receive
their compensation from the Company, except that prior to the Issue Date, such
amounts were paid by AHL on the Company's behalf. Mr. Goeglein's Employment
Agreement provides for annual bonuses based upon "on target" performances,
ranging from 50% to 75% of his base salary, and is subject to certain tax
provisions. The Company Board will consider increases to the Officers' base
salary no less frequently than annually, commencing at the end of each Officer's
first employment year. Any increase in base salary shall be within the sole
discretion of the Company Board. The Employment Agreements provide that the
Officers' salary cannot be reduced. After the initial term of Mr. Goeglein's
Employment Agreement, the Company has agreed to retain Mr. Goeglein as a
consultant to the Company for an additional five years at $100,000 per year. The
Officers are entitled to receive other employee benefits from the Company, such
as health, pension and retirement and reimbursement of certain expenses.
 
    Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreements, as amended, Mr.
Goeglein, Mr. McKennon, Mr. Klerk, Mr. Galati and Mr. Rueda have purchased for a
total purchase price of $1,200, $600, $450, $150 and $450, respectively,
unvested Common Membership Interests which were contributed to Holdings on
February 26, 1998 in return for unvested Holdings Common Membership Interests
representing approximately 2.0%, 1.0%, .75%, .25% and .75% (subject to dilution
upon exercise of the Warrants, whether vested or unvested at such time),
respectively of the Holdings Common Membership Interests (the "Restricted
Membership Interests") subject to the receipt of applicable Gaming Approvals.
The Officers' Restricted Membership Interests will be diluted upon exercise of
the Warrants so that Sommer Enterprises and the Officers share pro rata the
ultimate effect of the exercise of the Warrants. Sommer Enterprises' percentage
interest will be adjusted upward to the same degree. Enterprises' interest in
Holdings will be unaffected by the vesting of the Officers' Restricted
Membership Interests. Except with respect to Mr. Goeglein, during the terms of
the Employment Agreements, 25% of each Officer's Restricted Membership Interests
vest on the date of the opening of the Aladdin, and a further 25% vest on each
annual anniversary of the opening of the Aladdin. If the Company continues to
employ each Officer after the expiration of the term of his Employment
Agreement, 25% of the Officer's Restricted Membership Interests will continue to
vest on each anniversary of the opening date until such interests are fully
vested. After the terms of the Employment Agreements, if the Company does not
continue to employ the Officer other than for Cause, or if the Officer no longer
continues his employment for Good Reason, only an
 
                                       91
<PAGE>
additional 25% of the Officer's Restricted Membership Interests vest. Mr.
Goeglein's Restricted Membership Interests become fully vested at the earlier of
July 1, 2002 and the date on which such interests become publicly traded,
conditioned upon Mr. Goeglein's continued relationship with the Company. If an
Officer's employment with the Company and Holdings terminates, the Company and
Holdings have the right to repurchase any unvested portion of the Officer's
Restricted Membership Interest for an amount equal to the purchase price
originally paid by the Officer for the Common Membership Interests. Under
certain circumstances as set forth in the Employment Agreements, including if an
initial public offering with respect to the Restricted Membership Interests has
not occurred prior to the full vesting of such interests, the Officers have the
right to sell their vested Restricted Membership Interests to Holdings at fair
market value (subject to the receipt of applicable Gaming Approvals and to
certain restrictions on restricted payments set forth in the Indenture and the
Bank Credit Facility). If Holdings does not satisfy its obligation to purchase
the Restricted Membership Interests within seven days, the Officers have the
right to require the Company to purchase such interests at fair market value
(subject to certain restrictions on Restricted Payments set forth in the
Indenture). After the Company has satisfied its obligation to purchase the
Restricted Membership Interests, Holdings has the right to call such interests
from the Company for nominal consideration. If, prior to the date of an initial
public offering with respect to the Restricted Membership Interests, an Officer
is terminated for Cause, except with respect to Mr. Goeglein, the Company and
Holdings have the right to purchase any vested Restricted Membership Interests
from the Officers at two times the original price paid by the Officer for such
interests (in each case with corresponding rights in Holdings to purchase the
Common Membership Interests which correspond to such Restricted Membership
Interests for nominal consideration).
 
    The Employment Agreements may be terminated by the Company with or without
Cause (as defined in each Employment Agreement) or by the Officers for Good
Reason (as defined in each Employment Agreement). If an Officer is terminated
for Cause, he shall be entitled only to such salary, bonus and benefits then
accrued or vested. If an Officer is terminated without Cause or upon a Change in
Control (as defined in the Employment Agreements), the Officer shall be entitled
to such salary, bonus and benefits he would have been entitled for the remainder
of the four-year term or twelve months, whichever is longer (in the case of Mr.
Goeglein, any such amount remaining in connection with his term plus certain
other amounts).
 
    Each Officer has agreed not to compete with the Company during the term of
the Employment Agreements (plus one additional year if the Officer was
terminated for Cause) and has agreed to refrain from certain other activities in
competition with the Company.
 
    Each of the Employment Agreements provides that the Company shall indemnify
and hold the Officers harmless to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law
against costs, expenses, liabilities and losses, including reasonable attorney's
fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred or suffered by the Officer in
connection with his services as an employee of the Company during the term of
the respective Employment Agreement.
 
    Mr. Goeglein's Employment Agreement provides Mr. Goeglein with relocation
expense reimbursement, an interest-free mortgage loan of up to $500,000, and
certain excise tax gross-up provisions.
 
GAI CONSULTING AGREEMENT
 
    The Company has entered into a consulting agreement (as amended, the
"Consulting Agreement") with GAI, LLC ("GAI"), a Nevada limited-liability
company 100% beneficially owned by Richard Goeglein, which was subsequently
amended on February 26, 1998 to add Holdings as a party and pursuant to which
amendment GAI contributed its Common Membership Interests in the Company to
Holdings in return for Holdings Common Membership Interests. Pursuant to the
Consulting Agreement, GAI will render such consulting services as are reasonably
requested by the Company Board until June 30, 2002.
 
                                       92
<PAGE>
    During the term of the Consulting Agreement, the Company shall pay GAI a
retainer of $12,500 each month as payment for remaining on call to provide
services and expertise for such month. In addition, GAI purchased a 3% Common
Membership Interest in the Company which was contributed to Holdings on February
26, 1998 in return for a 3% Holdings Common Membership Interest (the "GAI
Membership Interest") for a purchase price of $1,800. The GAI Membership
Interest is fully vested and is subject to certain anti-dilution provisions
contained in the Consulting Agreement (but subject to dilution upon exercise of
the Warrants). In addition, (a) if Richard Goeglein is terminated from his
employment with the Company other than for "Cause" or voluntarily terminates for
"Good Reason" (as such terms are defined in Mr. Goeglein's Employment Agreement
with the Company) after the consummation of the Funding Transactions and the
Offering or (b) if an initial public offering in respect of the GAI Membership
Interest has not occurred prior to July 1, 2002, GAI has the right to sell any
shares purchased under the Consulting Agreement back to Holdings at their fair
market value at the time of such sale (subject to the receipt of applicable
Gaming Approvals and to certain restrictions on restricted payments set forth in
the Indenture and the Bank Credit Facility). If Holdings does not satisfy its
obligation to purchase the GAI Membership Interest within seven days, GAI has
the right to require the Company to purchase such interests at fair market
value. After the Company has satisfied its obligation to purchase the GAI
Membership Interest, Holdings will have the right to call such interests from
the Company at nominal value.
 
    Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, GAI has certain "piggyback"
registration rights with respect to its interests purchased pursuant to the
Consulting Agreement. Holdings has agreed to indemnify GAI, its legal counsel
and independent accountants against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and
liabilities which may arise out of certain acts or omissions committed in
connection with the registration of such membership interests, and, in
connection with certain acts or omissions not committed in connection with the
registration of such membership interests, to the same extent that other senior
management and directors of the Company and Holdings are indemnified.
 
BONUS AND INCENTIVE PLANS
 
    The Company and Holdings currently do not have any bonus or incentive plans.
However, the Company anticipates adopting such a plan at such time as it may
deem appropriate (subject to supermajority approval by the Holdings Members (as
defined herein), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). It is expected
that the terms of any such plan would be comparable to those customary in the
industry.

                            CONTROLLING STOCKHOLDERS
 
OVERVIEW
 
    AHL owns 98.7% of the common membership interests of Sommer Enterprises, a
Nevada limited-liability company. Sommer Enterprises currently owns 100% of
Enterprises' capital stock and, on a fully diluted basis assuming full exercise
of the Warrants, will own 60% of the economic benefit of Enterprises' capital
stock. The Holdings Common Membership Interests are held 47.0% by Sommer
Enterprises, 25.0% by Enterprises (which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sommer
Enterprises), 25.0% by London Clubs, through LCNI, and the remaining 3.0% by
GAI. Holdings owns all of the outstanding Common Membership Interests and Series
A Preferred Interests of the Company.
 
    AHL, which indirectly owns approximately 71.1% of the Common Membership
Interests and Series A Preferred Interests, is a 95%-owned subsidiary of the
Trust, a private New York discretionary trust, the trustees of which are Mrs.
Viola Sommer, Mr. Eugene Landsberg and Mr. Jack Sommer and the beneficiaries of
which are certain members of the Sommer family. The Sommer family has been in
the business of developing residential and commercial real estate, predominantly
in the metropolitan areas of the States of New York and New Jersey, for over 100
years. The former Aladdin hotel and casino located on the Project Site was
acquired by a predecessor-in-interest to AHL in December, 1994. Mr. Jack Sommer
and the other trustees of the Trust are currently co-defendants in a legal
action relating to the acquisition of the Project Site in December, 1994. See
"--Trust Litigation".
 
    There is a potential conflict of interest for the Trust with respect to its
indirect interest in the Mall Project, on the one hand, and its indirect
interest in the Aladdin on the other hand. If the Trust directs attention to
operations at the Mall Project and to increasing customers to the Desert
Passage, it may decrease the pedestrian traffic to the Aladdin, which could have
a material adverse effect on operations of the Company, and accordingly Holdings
and Enterprises.
 
   
    London Clubs (together with AHL, the "Controlling Stockholders") owns 25% of
the Holdings Common Membership Interests through subsidiaries. On the opening
date of the Aladdin, 0.5% of the Holdings Common Membership Interests will be
transferred from London Clubs to Sommer Enterprises and, upon the vesting of
certain employees' membership interests in Holdings, London Clubs' percentage of
the Holdings Common Membership Interests, and Sommer Enterprises' percentage of
the Holdings Common Membership Interests, will be further diluted
proportionately to account for such vesting, subject to applicable Gaming
Approvals. London Clubs is one of the world's leading casino operators, with
seven casinos in London (including Les Ambassadors Club and 50 St. James), three
in Egypt and one in Lebanon. Each of London Clubs' casinos offers its own
individual style, but with the same internationally-recognized standards of
service.
    
 
    In recent years, London Clubs has embarked upon a period of expansion,
acquiring the Park Tower Casino in London's Knightsbridge in October 1996 and in
December 1996 re-opening and managing the casino operations of the famous Casino
du Liban in Lebanon. On May 29, 1998 London Clubs had an equity market
capitalization of over $461 million. London Clubs is listed on the London Stock
Exchange. See "Risk Factors--Controlling Stockholders" and "--Possible Conflicts
of Interest."
 
HOLDINGS OPERATING AGREEMENT
 
    The members of Holdings (the "Holdings Members") have entered into the
Holdings Operating Agreement which sets forth their agreement as to the
relationships between Holdings and the Holdings Members and among the Holdings
Members themselves and as to the conduct of the business and internal affairs of
Holdings and its subsidiaries. For a summary of certain key provisions of the
Holdings Operating Agreement, see "Certain Material Agreements--Holdings
Operating Agreement."
 
                                       94
<PAGE>
EQUITY AND SERIES A PREFERRED INTEREST FINANCING
 
    Concurrent with or prior to the Offering, the following contributions were
made in order to effect the Equity and Series A Preferred Interest contribution
to the Company by Holdings: (i) Sommer Enterprises (a) contributed a portion of
the Contributed Land and $7.0 million consisting of the benefit of certain
predevelopment costs incurred by AHL to Enterprises in exchange for Class A
Common Stock in Enterprises and (b) contributed a portion of the Contributed
Land to Holdings in exchange for Holdings Common Membership Interests, (ii)
Enterprises contributed the portion of the Contributed Land and the benefit of
the $7.0 million of certain predevelopment costs received from Sommer
Enterprises and the net proceeds allocable from the sale of the Warrants to
Holdings in exchange for Holdings Common Membership Interests ((i) and (ii)
collectively, the "Sommer Equity Financing"), (iii) Holdings contributed the
Contributed Land appraised at $150.0 million, approximately $42 million from the
London Clubs Contribution and the $7.0 million consisting of the benefit of
certain predevelopment costs incurred by AHL to the Company in exchange for
Common Membership Interests in the Company and (iv) Holdings contributed $115.0
million in cash, consisting of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units and
approximately $8 million of the London Clubs Contribution, to the Company in
exchange for Series A Preferred Interests of the Company.
 
    LAND APPRAISAL.  While the Notes are not secured by the Project Site, the
Project Site represents the Company's most material asset. The Bank of Nova
Scotia, as arranger of the Bank Credit Facility retained HVS International, a
division of Hotel Consulting, Inc., to prepare and deliver an appraisal of the
Project Site and the Hotel/Casino (the "Appraisal"). The Appraisal was
completed, and was delivered to the Bank of Nova Scotia and the Company on
October 7, 1997. The Appraisal states that as of August 7, 1997, the "market
value" of the Project Site was $180.0 million and of the site on which the
Aladdin and the Plant will be built (as well as an adjacent approximately 0.8
acre portion of the Project Site) was $135.0 million.
 
KEEP-WELL AGREEMENT
 
    AHL, Bazaar Holdings and London Clubs (collectively, the "Sponsors") have
entered into the Keep-Well Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent and
the Bank Lenders. The holders of the Notes are not a party to the Keep-Well
Agreement. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this section have the
meanings assigned to such terms in the Keep-Well Agreement.
 
    The Keep-Well Agreement is the joint and several agreement of the Sponsors
to make certain quarterly Cash Equity Contributions (as defined below) to the
Company from and after the Conversion Date if the Company fails to comply with
the Minimum Fixed Charges Coverage Ratio set forth in the Bank Credit Facility.
The Bank Credit Facility defines the Minimum Fixed Charges Coverage Ratio as the
ratio of the Company's EBITDA for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters
to the Company's fixed charges for such period. For the Company's first three
fiscal quarters after the Conversion Date, the Minimum Fixed Charges Coverage
Ratio shall be calculated by annualizing the Company's Minimum Fixed Charges
Coverage Ratio for such fiscal quarters.
 
    The Cash Equity Contributions to the Company shall be in an amount that,
when added to the Company's EBITDA for the four quarter period ending on the
last day of such fiscal quarter, would rectify such breach. In no event shall
the aggregate Cash Equity Contributions required to be made by the Sponsors in
any fiscal year of the Company exceed $30.0 million. The $30.0 million annual
limitation on Cash Equity Contribution shall not apply to, or in any way limit,
any obligation of the Sponsors to pay the Accelerated Payment Amount (as defined
below).
 
    The Cash Equity Contributions are cash contributions by the Sponsors to the
Company in exchange for Holdings Series A Preferred Interests or Holdings Series
B Preferred Interests having terms and conditions satisfactory to the Bank
Lenders (including, without limitation, no mandatory redemption provisions and
no requirements for the distribution of cash). The Holdings Operating Agreement
makes provision for adjustment of the proportion of Holdings Common Membership
Interests held by Sommer
 
                                       95
<PAGE>
Enterprises and London Clubs for circumstances where the portion of payment made
by either Sponsor is in excess of 25% with respect to London Clubs and 75% with
respect to Sommer Enterprises. The Cash Equity Contributions and the issuance of
Holdings Common Membership Interests or the Holdings Series A Preferred
Interests and Holdings Series B Preferred Interests will require the approval of
the Nevada Gaming Authorities.
 
    Cash Equity Contributions made under the Bank Completion Guaranty will not
count for purposes of the Keep-Well Agreement, and vice-versa.
 
    The Keep-Well Agreement will terminate (the "Keep-Well Termination Date") on
the date which is the earliest of (i) the day on which full and indefeasible
payment of the Obligations of the Company under the Bank Credit Facility has
been made to reduce the commitments of the Bank Lenders thereunder (the
"Commitments") to $145.0 million or less, (ii) the last day of the period of six
consecutive fiscal quarters from and after the Conversion Date during which the
Company has satisfied each of the financial covenants set forth in the Bank
Credit Facility (without giving effect to any payments to or investments by the
Sponsors in or for the benefit of the Company), (iii) the date on which both of
the following shall have been satisfied: (a) construction of the Aladdin and
renovation of the Theater have been completed in accordance with the terms of
the Bank Credit Facility and (b) the Commitments and the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Obligations under the Bank Credit Facility shall have
been reduced to an amount not in excess of a certain amount specified for such
date pursuant to a schedule of the 20 quarters following the Conversion Date,
(iv) the date on which the Sponsors shall have made full payment of the
Accelerated Payment Amount (as defined below) or (v) in the case of London Clubs
only, the date on which it shall have made full payment of the Accelerated
Payment Amount in respect of certain London Clubs specified events.
 
    The Accelerated Payment Amount is, as of any date, an amount equal to the
sum of (a) the product of (i) $7.5 million times (ii) the number of scheduled
quarterly amortization payments remaining under the Bank Credit Facility (which
have not been paid by or on behalf of the Company) plus (b) any accrued and
unpaid amounts owed by the Sponsors under certain provisions of the Keep-Well
Agreement; provided, however, that at no time shall the Accelerated Payment
Amount exceed the lesser of (x) the outstanding Obligations of the Company under
the Bank Credit Facility and (y) $150.0 million plus amounts due under clause
(b) above, minus the product of (A) $7.5 million and (B) the number of complete
calendar quarters that have elapsed since the date which is six calendar
quarters after the Conversion Date.
 
    The maximum amount of the Accelerated Payment Amount will be $150.0 million
plus any unpaid Cash Equity Contributions previously required to be made under
the Keep-Well Agreement. The maximum amount of the Accelerated Payment Amount
shall decrease by $7.5 million for each quarterly amortization payment which is
paid or prepaid.
 
    Should certain specified exceptional events under the Keep-Well Agreement
occur, London Clubs is obligated to pay the Accelerated Payment Amount. The
specified exceptional events will include breaches by London Clubs of various
financial covenants and a covenant limiting the amount of secured debt which
London Clubs can incur, as well as certain events which will be triggered if
other indebtedness of London Clubs is accelerated or if London Clubs becomes
insolvent. Any such payments by London Clubs shall be used to repay bank
indebtedness under the Bank Credit Facility.
 
    The obligations of London Clubs under the Keep-Well Agreement are
subordinated to other obligations of London Clubs under certain of its
pre-existing senior debt facilities. In addition, obligations of London Clubs
under the Keep-Well Agreement are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of London
Clubs, which subsidiaries currently guarantee other indebtedness of London
Clubs.
 
    Pursuant to the Salle Privee Management Agreement, London Clubs will receive
certain fees in consideration for its obligations under the Keep-Well Agreement.
See "Certain Transactions--Other Payments to Controlling Stockholders."

    The Keep-Well Agreement contains representations and warranties, covenants
and events of default that are customary for the type of transaction.
 
TRUST LITIGATION
 
    Mr. Jack Sommer, who is a trustee of the Trust, and the other trustees of
the Trust, are co-defendants in a legal action relating to the existing Aladdin
hotel and casino commenced by members of the Aronow family (the "Aronow
Plaintiffs") in May 1995 in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County
of New York. In their complaint, the Aronow Plaintiffs allege that Mr. Jack
Sommer and the Aronow Plaintiffs were parties to a joint venture to acquire and
develop the existing Aladdin hotel and casino and that Mr. Sommer breached such
alleged agreement when the Trust acquired an interest in the Aladdin hotel and
casino in December, 1994. The Aronow Plaintiffs are seeking (among other
remedies) to impress a constructive trust upon the Trust's interest in the
Aladdin hotel and casino, an accounting, compensatory damages of not less than
$200.0 million and punitive damages of not less than $500.0 million.
 
    Mr. Sommer and the trustees of the Trust have informed the Company that they
intend to vigorously defend such action. However, in the event that the action
is successful, the Trust might be required to pay substantial damages and/or the
Aronow Plaintiffs might be entitled to part of the Trust's interest in the
Aladdin hotel and casino. An adverse decision could have a material and adverse
effect on the Company and the Issuers.
 
    Mr. Sommer and the other trustees of the Trust were also co-defendants in a
legal action commenced by Edward Kanbar, Romano Tio and Adina Winston (the
"Kanbar Plaintiffs" and together with the Aronow Plaintiffs, the "Plaintiffs")
in January 1997 in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New
York. In their complaint, the Kanbar Plaintiffs alleged that they were partners
in an alleged partnership with Joseph Aronow, which partnership was formed to
seek and develop business opportunities with Mr. Sommer. The Kanbar Plaintiffs
were seeking (among other remedies) to impress a constructive trust upon the
Trust's interest in the Aladdin hotel and casino, compensatory damages of not
less than $20.0 million and punitive damages of not less than $50.0 million. On
January 15, 1998, the court granted the trustees of the Trust's motion to
dismiss this action in its entirety.
 
    In 1988, the Trust and two related entities commenced an action in the
Southern District of New York against certain entities owned and controlled by
Bronfman family interests (the "Bronfman Defendants") alleging, among other
things, that the Bronfman Defendants committed violations of Rule 10b-5 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as multiple breaches of
fiduciary duties as general partner of a partnership in which the Trust owns
limited partnership interests. Relief requested includes an accounting,
imposition of a constructive trust and damages in excess of $100.0 million.
 
    The Bronfman Defendants have asserted counterclaims against plaintiffs and
certain Sommer family members individually alleging causes of action for breach
of contract, fraud and various related torts. The Bronfman Defendants claim
damages in excess of $100.0 million.
 
    The trustees of the Trust have informed the Company that they intend to
vigorously defend the counterclaim. However, in the event the Bronfman
Defendants are successful, the Trust might be required to pay substantial
damages. An adverse decision could have a material and adverse effect on the
Trust.

<PAGE>
                            DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES
 
GENERAL
 
      The Old Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the "Indenture") among
the Issuers and State Street Bank and Trust Company, as trustee (the "Trustee"),
in a private transaction that was not subject to the registration requirements
of the Securities Act. A copy of the Indenture has been filed as an exhibit to
the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. The New Notes
will also be issued pursuant to the Indenture, which will be qualified under the
Trust Indenture Act, upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement of
which this Prospectus is a part. The form and terms of the New Notes include
those stated in the Indenture (including the form of Note) and those made part
of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The New Notes are
subject to all such terms, and holders of the New Notes are referred to the
Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement thereof. The following
summary of the material provisions of the Indenture does not purport to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture,
including the definitions therein of certain terms used below. The definitions
of certain terms used in the following summary are set forth below under
"--Certain Definitions." For purposes of this Description of the New Notes, (i)
the term "Issuers" refers only to the Issuers and not to any of their respective
Subsidiaries, (ii) the term "Holdings" refers only to Aladdin Gaming Holdings,
LLC and not to any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) the term "Company" refers only to
Aladdin Gaming, LLC and not to any of its Subsidiaries and (iv) the term
"Holders" means holders of Old Notes or New Notes, as applicable.
 
      Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings and was incorporated
solely for the purpose of serving as a co-issuer of the Notes in order to
facilitate the Offering. Capital will not have any material operations or assets
and will not have any revenues. As a result, prospective holders of the New
Notes should not expect Capital to participate in servicing the principal,
interest, premium, or any other payment obligations on the Notes. See "--Certain
Covenants--Restrictions on Activities of Capital."
 
BOOK-ENTRY, DELIVERY AND FORM
 
      Except as set forth in the next paragraph, following the Separation Date
(as defined herein), the Old Notes will continue to be represented by a global
Note, and following the consummation of the Exchange Offer, the New Notes will
be issued in the form of one new global Note (the "Global Note"). The Global
Note will be deposited upon issuance with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust
Company (the "Depositary") and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee
of the Depositary (such nominee being referred to herein as the "Global Security
Holder").
 
      New Notes that are issued as described below under "--Certificated Notes"
will be issued in the form of registered definitive certificates (the
"Certificated Notes"). Upon the transfer of Certificated Notes, such
Certificated Notes may, unless the Global Note has previously been exchanged for
Certificated Notes, be exchanged for an interest in the Global Note representing
the principal amount of New Notes being transferred.
 
      The Depositary is a limited purpose trust company that was created to hold
securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the "Participants"
or the "Depositary's Participants") and to facilitate the clearance and
settlement of transactions in such securities between participants through
electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its Participants. The Depositary's
Participants include securities brokers and dealers (including the Initial
Purchasers), banks and trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other
organizations. Access to the Depositary's system is also available to other
entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies (collectively, the
"Indirect Participants" or the "Depositary's Indirect Participants") that clear
through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant, either directly
or indirectly. Persons who are not Participants may beneficially own securities
held by or on behalf of the Depositary only through the Depositary's
Participants or the Depositary's Indirect Participants.
 
                                      103
<PAGE>
      The Issuers expect that pursuant to procedures established by the
Depositary (i) upon deposit of the Global Note, the Depositary will credit the
accounts of Participants in respect of whose Old Notes have been accepted in the
Exchange Offer with portions of the principal amount of the Global Note and (ii)
ownership of the New Notes evidenced by the Global Note will be shown on, and
the transfer of ownership thereof will be effected only through, records
maintained by the Depositary (with respect to the interest of the Depositary's
Participants), the Depositary's Participants and the Depositary's Indirect
Participants. Prospective purchasers are advised that the laws of some states
require that certain persons take physical delivery in definitive form of
securities that they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer New Notes
evidenced by the Global Note will be limited to such extent.
 
      So long as the Global Security Holder is the registered owner of any New
Notes, the Global Security Holder will be considered the sole holder under the
Indenture of any New Notes evidenced by the Global Note. Beneficial owners of
New Notes evidenced by the Global Note will not be considered the owners or
holders thereof under the Indenture, for any purpose, including with respect to
the giving of any directions, instructions or approvals to the Trustee
thereunder. Neither the Issuers nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or
liability for any aspect of the records of the Depositary or for maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any records of the Depositary relating to the New
Notes.
 
      Payments in respect of the Accreted Value of, premium, if any, interest on
any New Notes registered in the name of the Global Security Holder on the
applicable record date will be payable by the Trustee to or at the direction of
the Global Security Holder in its capacity as the registered Holder under the
Indenture. Under the terms of the Indenture, the Issuers and the Trustee may
treat the persons in whose names New Notes including the Global Note, are
registered as the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving such payments.
Consequently, neither the Issuers nor the Trustee has or will have any
responsibility or liability for the payment of such amounts to beneficial owners
of New Notes. The Issuers believe, however, that it is currently the policy of
the Depositary to immediately credit the accounts of the relevant Participants
with such payments, in amounts proportionate to their respective holdings of
beneficial interests in the relevant security as shown on the records of the
Depositary. Payments by the Depositary's Participants and the Depositary's
Indirect Participants to the beneficial owners of New Notes will be governed by
standing instructions and customary practice and will be the responsibility of
the Depositary's Participants or the Depositary's Indirect Participants.
 
    CERTIFICATED SECURITIES
 
      Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, any person
having a beneficial interest in the Global Note may, upon request to the
Trustee, exchange such beneficial interest for New Notes in the form of
Certificated Notes. Upon any such issuance, the Trustee is required to register
such Certificated Notes in the name of, and cause the same to be delivered to,
such person or persons (or the nominee of any thereof). If (i) the Issuers
notify the Trustee in writing that the Depositary is no longer willing or able
to act as a depositary and the Issuers are unable to locate a qualified
successor within 90 days or (ii) the Issuers, at their option, notify the
Trustee in writing that they elect to cause the issuance of New Notes in the
form of Certificated Notes under the Indenture, then, upon surrender by the
Global Security Holder of its Global Notes, Certificated Notes in such form will
be issued to each person that the Global Security Holder and the Depositary
identify as being the beneficial owner of the related New Notes.
 
      Neither the Issuers nor the Trustee will be liable for any delay by the
Global Security Holder or the Depositary in identifying the beneficial owners of
New Notes and the Issuers and the Trustee may conclusively rely on, and will be
protected in relying on, instructions from the Global Security Holder or the
Depositary for all purposes.
 
                                      104
<PAGE>
    SAME DAY SETTLEMENT AND PAYMENT
 
      The Indenture requires that payments in respect of the New Notes
represented by the Global Note (including Accreted Value, premium, if any, and
interest) be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
accounts specified by the Global Security Holder. With respect to Certificated
Notes, the Issuers will make all payments of Accreted Value, premium, if any,
and interest by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts
specified by the Holders thereof or, if no such account is specified, by mailing
a check to each such Holder's registered address. Secondary trading in long-term
notes and debentures of corporate issuers is generally settled in clearing house
or next day funds.
 
SEPARATION
 
      The Old Notes were originally issued as part of a Unit consisting of; (i)
the Old Notes; and (ii) 10 Warrants to purchase 10 shares of Class B, non-voting
Common Stock, no par value of Enterprises. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Notes
and the Warrants were to become separately transferable (at the option of the
holders thereof) on the "Separation Date," being the earliest of: (i) September
1, 1998; (ii) the date on which a registration statement with respect to the
Notes or a registration statement with respect to the Warrants and the Warrant
Shares was filed with the Commission under the Securities Act; (iii) the
occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture) or a sale or
recapitalization of the Issuer, Holdings or the Company occurs (a "Triggering
Event"); (iv) 30 days after a Qualified Public Offering; (v) the occurrence of
an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture); or (vi) such earlier date as
determined by Merrill Lynch & Co. in its sole discretion. The Separation Date
occurred on filing of the Registration Statement. The exchange of Old Notes for
New Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer will separate the Units if such
separation has not occurred prior to the date of exchange.
 
RANKING; SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT
 
      The Notes constitute joint and several senior obligations of the Issuers
limited in aggregate principal amount at maturity to $221.5 million. The Notes
rank PARI PASSU in right of payment to all current and future senior
Indebtedness of the Issuers and senior in right of payment to all current and
future subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers. The Notes are secured by a
first priority pledge of all amounts in the Note Construction Disbursement
Account and the Series A Preferred Interests. Following the application of the
net proceeds of the Offering on the Issue Date to repay certain existing
Indebtedness and to pay certain fees and expenses in connection with the Funding
Transactions, the remaining proceeds from the Offering, which were deposited in
the Note Construction Disbursement Account, were approximately $35 million. As
of the close of business on April 1, 1998, the balance in the Note Construction
Disbursement Account was $32.7 million. See "Use of Proceeds."
 
      The operations of Holdings are conducted entirely through its Subsidiaries
and, therefore, Holdings is entirely dependent upon the cash flow of its
Subsidiaries to meet its obligations, including its obligations under the Notes.
See "Risk Factors--Limitations on Access to Cash Flow of Subsidiaries; Holding
Company Structure." As of the date hereof, the only direct and indirect
subsidiaries of Holdings are Capital, the Company and AMH, and the Company is
the only Restricted Subsidiary. Under certain circumstances, Holdings will be
able to designate current or future Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.
Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to many of the restrictive
covenants set forth in the Indenture. As of the date hereof, AMH and Aladdin
Music are each designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary.
 
      Holdings' only material assets are its ownership of 100% of the
outstanding Common Membership Interests (which are pledged to secure the
obligations of the Lenders under the Bank Credit Facility) and the Series A
Preferred Interests.
 
                                      105

      The Notes are not guaranteed by any of Holdings' subsidiaries. Therefore,
the Notes are effectively subordinated to all Indebtedness and other liabilities
of Holdings' Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, to the Company's
obligations under the Bank Credit Facility). Additionally, any right of Holdings
to receive assets of any of its Subsidiaries upon such Subsidiary's liquidation
or reorganization is effectively subordinated to the claims of that Subsidiary's
creditors, except to the extent, if any, that Holdings itself is recognized as a
creditor of such Subsidiary, in which case the claims of Holdings would still be
subordinate to the claims of such creditors who hold security in the assets of
such Subsidiary to the extent of such assets and to the claims of such creditors
who hold Indebtedness of such Subsidiary senior to that held by Holdings. Upon
completion of the Aladdin, the Company is expected to have $430.0 million of
outstanding Indebtedness, including $410.0 million outstanding under the Bank
Credit Facility and $20.0 million outstanding under the loan portion of the FF&E
Financing (excluding $60.0 million in operating leases under the FF&E
Financing), and the Company is expected to have an aggregate of $10.0 million
available to be borrowed under a working capital facility. The Indenture permits
the incurrence of certain additional Indebtedness of Holdings and its Restricted
Subsidiaries in the future. See "--Certain Covenants-- Limitations on Incurrence
of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock." The Notes are without recourse
to the Members.
 
      The Bank Credit Facility restricts, subject to certain exceptions, the
Company from paying any dividends, if applicable, or making any other
distributions to Holdings. In addition, the Indenture provides that the Holders,
while free to exercise their rights and remedies against Holdings, are bound,
for so long as any portion of the Bank Credit Facility is outstanding, by
standstill provisions prohibiting the Holders from initiating or intervening in
an insolvency proceeding of the Company. Such provisions will also specifically
prohibit the Holders from seeking a substantive consolidation of Holdings, the
Company and/ or Capital. The Indenture also contains subordination provisions to
the effect that, in the event of a substantive consolidation of Holdings, the
Company and/or Capital, the Holders (i) will not be entitled to receive any cash
or other payments (other than securities subordinated to the prior payment in
full of the Bank Credit Facility to the same extent as the Notes) in respect of
the Notes until the Bank Credit Facility has been indefeasibly paid in full in
cash and (ii) will be required to turn over to the Lenders under the Bank Credit
Facility any payments received in violation of such provisions. Subject to such
subordination and other provisions, the Holders will be entitled in any such
consolidated proceeding (other than a consolidated proceeding resulting from the
assertion of substantive consolidation by the Holders in violation of the
foregoing provisions) to exercise all rights available to the Holders, as
creditors or otherwise, and the Lenders under the Bank Credit Facility, and any
agent on their behalf, will be prohibited from contesting the involvement in
such proceeding of the Holders and from seeking an equitable subordination of
the Holders' claims.
 
PRINCIPAL, MATURITY AND INTEREST
 
      The Notes will mature on March 1, 2010, and are limited in an aggregate
principal amount at maturity to $221.5 million. The Notes were issued at a
substantial discount from their principal amount at maturity to generate
aggregate gross proceeds of $115.0 million. Until March 1, 2003, no interest
will accrue on the Notes, but the Accreted Value will increase (representing
amortization of original issue discount) between the date of original issuance
and March 1, 2003, on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis using a 360-day year
comprised of twelve 30-day months, such that the Accreted Value will be equal to
the full principal amount at maturity of the Notes on March 1, 2003. Beginning
on March 1, 2003, cash interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 13 1/2%
per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September
1 of each year until maturity, commencing on September 1, 2003, to Holders of
record on February 15 and August 15, respectively, immediately preceding such
interest payment date. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most
recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid,
from March 1, 2003. Cash interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Principal of, and interest, premium and
Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes will be payable at the office or agency
of the Issuers maintained for such purpose within the
 
                                      106
<PAGE>
City and State of New York or, at the option of the Issuers, payment of interest
and Liquidated Damages, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at
their respective addresses set forth in the register of Holders; PROVIDED that
all payments with respect to at least $1.0 million in aggregate principal amount
at maturity of Notes, the Holders of which have given wire transfer instructions
to Holdings, will be required to be made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof. Until
otherwise designated by the Issuers, the Issuers' office or agency in New York
will be the office of an affiliate of the Trustee maintained for such purpose.
The New Notes will be issued in registered form, without coupons, and in
denominations of $1,000 principal amount at maturity and integral multiples
thereof.
 
   
    Holders of Old Notes should note that the amount of Liquidated Damages
payable by the Issuers to Holders on the occurrence of a Registration Default,
is intended to represent a genuine estimate by the parties of the loss that
would be suffered by Holders on occurrence of a Registration Default. If
however, a court were to determine that such estimate of loss instead
constituted a penalty, the obligation of the Issuers to pay Liquidated Damages
on the Old Notes could be unenforceable.
    
 
SERIES A PREFERRED INTERESTS
 
      On the Issue Date, the Series A Preferred Interests had a liquidation
preference of $115.0 million. The liquidation preference of the Series A
Preferred Interests accretes on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis using a 360
day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The Series A Preferred Interests
will have a liquidation preference of approximately $    million on the date of
the consummation of the Exchange Offer. On March 1, 2003, the liquidation
preference of the Series A Preferred Interests will be $221.5 million. All
Series A Preferred Interests were issued to Holdings and pledged to the Trustee
for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes. From and after September 1, 2003,
distributions on the Series A Preferred Interests will be payable in cash.
Holdings is obligated under the Indenture to utilize such distributions to make
payments on the Notes.
 
      The Series A Preferred Interests will be mandatorily redeemable on March
1, 2010. After March 1, 2003, the Series A Preferred Interests will be
redeemable at the option of the Company, so long as the proceeds thereof are
used by Holdings to make a redemption of the Notes or an offer to purchase
Notes, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. See
"--Optional Redemption" and "--Gaming Redemption."
 
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
 
      Except as described below, the Notes are not redeemable at the option of
the Issuers prior to March 1, 2003. Thereafter, the Notes will be subject to
redemption at the option of the Issuers, in whole or in part, upon not less than
30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as
percentages of Accreted Value) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest
and Liquidated Damages, if applicable, thereon to the applicable date of
redemption, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on of the years
indicated below:

                                                                        -----------

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or prior to March 1, 2001, the Issuers
may redeem up to an aggregate of 35% of the Accreted Value of the Notes at a
redemption price of 113 1/2% of the Accreted Value thereof, plus Liquidated
Damages, if any, thereon to the redemption date, with the proceeds of a
Qualified Public Offering (which proceeds may be advanced or contributed to the
Issuers by the IPO
 
                                      107
<PAGE>
Entity); provided that at least 65% of the Accreted Value remains outstanding
immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that
such redemption shall occur within 60 days of the date of such Qualified Public
Offering.
 
GAMING REDEMPTION
 
      Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Gaming Authority
requires that a holder or beneficial owner of Notes must be licensed, qualified
or found suitable under any applicable gaming law and such holder or beneficial
owner fails to apply for a license, qualification or finding of suitability
within 30 days after being requested to do so by such Gaming Authority (or such
lesser period that may be required by such Gaming Authority), or if such holder
or beneficial owner is notified by such Gaming Authority that such holder or
beneficial owner will not be so licensed, qualified or found suitable, the
Issuers shall have the right, at their option, (i) to require that such holder
or beneficial owner dispose of such holder's or beneficial owner's Notes within
30 days (or such earlier date as may be required by the applicable Gaming
Authority) of (a) the termination of the period described above for such holder
or beneficial owner to apply for a license, qualification or finding of
suitability or (b) receipt of the notice from such Gaming Authority that such
holder or beneficial owner will not be licensed, qualified or found suitable by
such Gaming Authority or (ii) to call for redemption of the Notes of such holder
or beneficial owner at a redemption price equal to the lesser of the price at
which such holder or beneficial owner acquired such Notes and the Accreted Value
thereof, together with, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest and
Liquidated Damages, if applicable, thereon to the date of redemption or the date
of the finding that such holder or beneficial owner will not be licensed,
qualified or found suitable, which may be less than 30 days following the notice
of redemption, if so ordered by such Gaming Authority or required by applicable
gaming laws.
 
      Immediately upon a determination by any Gaming Authority that a holder or
beneficial owner of Notes will not be licensed, qualified or found suitable by
such Gaming Authority, such holder or beneficial owner shall have no further
rights with respect to the Notes (i) to exercise, directly or indirectly,
through any trustee, nominee or any other Person or entity, any right conferred
by the Notes or (ii) to receive any interest or any other distribution or
payment with respect to the Notes or any remuneration in any form from either of
the Issuers for services rendered or otherwise, except the redemption price of
the Notes. In connection with any such redemption, and except as may be required
by a Gaming Authority, the Issuers shall comply with the procedures contained in
the Indenture for redemptions of the Notes. Under the Indenture, the Issuers are
not required to pay or reimburse any holder or beneficial owner of Notes who is
required to apply for such license, qualification or finding of suitability for
the costs of the licensure or investigation for such qualification or finding of
suitability. Such expenses will, therefore, be the obligation of such holder or
beneficial owner. See "Regulation and Licensing."
 
MANDATORY REDEMPTION
 
      Except as set forth below under "--Repurchase at Option of Holders," the
Issuers are not required to make mandatory redemptions or sinking fund payments
prior to maturity with respect to the Notes.
 
REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS
 
    CHANGE OF CONTROL
 
      Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder will have the
right to require the Issuers to purchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an
integral multiple thereof) of such Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer
described below (the "Change of Control Offer") at a price in cash equal to 101%
of the Accreted Value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated
Damages, if applicable, thereon to the date of purchase (the "Change of Control
Payment"). Within ten days following any Change of Control, the Issuers will
mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that
 
                                      108
<PAGE>
constitute the Change of Control and offering to purchase Notes on the date
specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later
than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the "Change of Control Payment
Date"), pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in
such notice. The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under
the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the
extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase
of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control.
 
      On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers will, to the extent
permitted by law, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the paying
agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of
all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and (iii) deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with
an Officers' Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been
tendered to and purchased by the Issuers. The paying agent will promptly mail to
each Holder of Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes,
and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail to each Holder (or cause to
be transferred by book entry) a new Note equal in principal amount to any
unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; PROVIDED, that each such
new Note will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple
thereof.
 
      The Change of Control provisions described above will be applicable
whether or not any other provisions of the Indenture are applicable. Except as
described above with respect to a Change of Control, the Indenture does not
contain provisions that permit the Holders to require that the Issuers purchase
or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar
transaction.
 
      The Bank Credit Facility contains provisions which, subject to certain
exceptions, restrict the Company from paying any dividends, if applicable, or
making any other distributions to Holdings. If Holdings is unable to obtain
dividends, if applicable, or distributions from the Company sufficient to permit
the purchase of the Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer or the Company
does not repay the Bank Credit Facility or refinance the Bank Credit Facility so
it is no longer restricted from paying such dividends or making such
distributions, Holdings will likely not have the financial resources to purchase
the Notes. In any event, there can be no assurance that Holdings' Subsidiaries
will have the resources available to pay any such dividend or make any such
distribution. Prior to complying with the provisions of the preceding
paragraphs, but in any event within 30 days following a Change of Control,
Holdings will cause the Company to either repay or refinance all outstanding
Indebtedness under the Bank Credit Facility so that the Company is no longer
restricted from paying dividends, if applicable, or making distributions to
Holdings or obtain the requisite consents under the Bank Credit Facility to
permit the purchase of the Notes required by this covenant. If Holdings does not
obtain such a consent or repay such borrowings, Holdings will remain prohibited
from purchasing the Notes. In such a case, Holdings' failure to make a Change of
Control Offer when required or to purchase tendered Notes when tendered would
constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture. See "Risk
Factors--Substantial Leverage; Ability to Service Debt" and "--Limitation on
Access to Cash Flow of Subsidiaries; Holding Company Structure."
 
      The Issuers will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a
Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the
manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth
in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and
purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of
Control Offer.
 
      The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the
sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of "all or substantially
all" of the assets of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Although
there is a developing body of case law interpreting the phrase "substantially
all," there is no precisely established definition of the phrase under
applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a Holder to require the Issuers to
purchase such Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other
disposition of less than all of the assets of Holdings and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, to another Person or group may be uncertain.
 
                                      109
<PAGE>
    ASSET SALES
 
      The Indenture provides that Holdings will not, and will not permit any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale prior to the date the
Aladdin is Operating. After the date the Aladdin is Operating, Holdings will not
and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to consummate an Asset
Sale, unless (i) no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing
immediately prior to or after giving effect to such Asset Sale, (ii) Holdings or
the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the
time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (evidenced by a
resolution of the Board of Managers or the Board of Directors, as the case may
be, and set forth in an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the
assets sold or otherwise disposed of and (iii) at least 75% of the consideration
therefor received by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of
cash or Cash Equivalents; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the amount of (a) any
liabilities (as shown on Holdings' or such Restricted Subsidiary's most recent
balance sheet (or the notes thereto)) of Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary
(other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms
expressly subordinated to the Notes or any guarantee thereof) that are assumed
by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement
that releases Holdings and such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from
further liability and (b) any securities, notes or other obligations received by
Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are within 20
days thereof converted by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to
the extent of the cash received), shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of
this provision.
 
      Within 180 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale,
Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply such Net
Proceeds (i) to the making of a capital expenditure or the acquisition of
long-term tangible assets of Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary used by or
useful to Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary in the line of business in
which Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary is permitted to be engaged pursuant
to the covenant described under "--Certain Covenants-- Line of Business"; or
(ii) following the date on which the Aladdin is Operating, to a repayment of, or
permanent reduction of commitments under Indebtedness of any Restricted
Subsidiary, including without limitation, amounts available under the Bank
Credit Facility. Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds,
Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce revolving credit
borrowings or invest in Cash Equivalents. Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that
are not invested or applied as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph
will be deemed to constitute "Excess Proceeds." When the aggregate amount of
Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, Holdings will be required to make an
offer to all Holders (an "Asset Sale Offer") to purchase the maximum Accreted
Value of Notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer
price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the Accreted Value thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if applicable, thereon to
the date of purchase, which date shall be no less than 30 nor more than 60 days
after the date of the Asset Sale Offer, in accordance with the procedures set
forth in the Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if any Restricted Subsidiary of
Holdings receives proceeds from such Asset Sale, such Restricted Subsidiary
shall redeem, or make available to the Company such Excess Proceeds so that the
Company may redeem, an amount of Series A Preferred Interests sufficient for
Holdings to utilize the proceeds from such redemption to make the Asset Sale
Offer required by this provision. To the extent that the aggregate amount of
Notes tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds,
Holdings or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may, subject to the
provisions of the Indenture use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general
corporate purposes. If the aggregate Accreted Value of Notes surrendered by
Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select
the Notes to be purchased in the manner described below under the caption
"Selection and Notice." Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount
of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
 
      The Bank Credit Facility (subject to certain exceptions) restricts the
Company from paying any dividends, if applicable, or making any other
distributions to Holdings. If Holdings is unable to obtain dividends, if
applicable, or other distributions from the Company sufficient to permit the
purchase of the
 
                                      110
<PAGE>
Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer or the Company does not repay the Bank
Credit Facility or refinance the Bank Credit Facility so it is no longer
restricted from paying such dividends or making such distributions, Holdings
will likely not have the financial resources to purchase the Notes. In any
event, there can be no assurance that Holdings' Subsidiaries will have the
resources available to pay any such dividend, if applicable, or make any such
distribution. Holdings' failure to make an Asset Sale Offer when required to
purchase the Notes when tendered would constitute an Event of Default under the
Indenture. See "Risk Factors--Substantial Leverage; Ability to Service Debt" and
"--Limitations on Access to Cash Flow of Subsidiaries; Holding Company
Structure."
 
SELECTION AND NOTICE
 
      If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased at any time,
selection of Notes for redemption or purchase will be made by the Trustee in
compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange,
if any, on which the Notes are listed, or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a
pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair
and appropriate; PROVIDED, that no Notes of $1,000 or less shall be purchased or
redeemed in part. Notices of redemption or purchase shall be mailed by first
class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date or
purchase date (except in the case of redemption required by any Gaming
Authority, which may be less than 30 days) to each Holder of Notes to be
redeemed or purchased at such Holder's registered address. Notices of redemption
may not be conditional. If any Note is to be redeemed or purchased in part only,
any notice of redemption or purchase that relates to such Note shall state the
portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. A new Note
in principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of any Note
redeemed or purchased in part will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof
upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the redemption or purchase
date, interest and Liquidated Damages, if applicable, shall cease to accrue on
Notes or portions thereof called for redemption or purchase.
 
CERTAIN COVENANTS
 
    RESTRICTED PAYMENTS
 
      (a) Prior to the date the Aladdin is Operating, the Indenture provides
that, except as permitted in clauses (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (xi),
(xii), (xiv), (xv), (xix), (xx), (xxi), (xxii) or (xxiv) of paragraph (c) below,
Holdings will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly: (i) declare or pay any dividend, if applicable, or make
any other payment or distribution on account of Holdings' or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any
payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving either of the
Issuers) or to the direct or indirect holders of Holdings' or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests in any capacity (other than dividends,
if applicable, or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than
Disqualified Stock) of Holdings (or accretions thereon) or dividends, if
applicable, or distributions payable to Holdings by a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of
Holdings); (ii) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value
(including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or consolidation
involving either of the Issuers) any Equity Interests of Holdings or any
Subsidiary of Holdings or any direct or indirect parent of Holdings or other
Affiliate of Holdings (other than any such Equity Interests owned by Holdings or
any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Holdings); (iii) make any payment on or with
respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for
value any Indebtedness that is PARI PASSU with or subordinated to the Notes
(other than the Notes), except a payment of interest or principal at Stated
Maturity; or (iv) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other
actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively referred
to as "Restricted Payments").
 
      (b) Following the date on which the Aladdin is Operating, subject to
paragraph (c) below, Holdings will not and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to make, directly or indirectly, any Restricted Payments unless, at
the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:
 
                                      111
<PAGE>
        (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
    or would occur as a consequence thereof;
 
        (ii) Holdings would, at the time of such Restricted Payment, have a
    Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for its most recently ended four full fiscal
    quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately
    preceding the date on which such Restricted Payment is proposed to be made
    of at least 2.25 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect
    to such Restricted Payment as if it had been made at the beginning of such
    four quarter period; and
 
        (iii) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all
    other Restricted Payments (except as provided in the last sentence of
    paragraph (c) below) made by Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries after
    the Issue Date is less than the sum, without duplication, of (A) 50% of (1)
    the Consolidated Net Income of Holdings for the period (taken as one
    accounting period) from the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing
    after the date on which the Aladdin becomes Operating to the end of
    Holdings' most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial
    statements are available (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such
    period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit) less (2) the amount paid or
    to be paid in respect of such period pursuant to clause (v) of paragraph (c)
    below, plus (B) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by Holdings
    since the Issue Date from capital contributions or the issue or sale of
    Equity Interests of Holdings (other than Disqualified Stock) or Disqualified
    Stock or debt securities of the Issuers that have been converted into such
    Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or
    convertible debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the Issuers and other
    than Disqualified Stock or convertible debt securities that have been
    converted into Disqualified Stock), in any case other than (1) amounts
    received by Holdings pursuant to payments being made by any party in
    connection with its obligations under the Keep-Well Agreement or the Bank
    Completion Guaranty or (2) any amounts received by Holdings or deemed
    received by Holdings from a Restricted Subsidiary in connection with a
    conversion by Holdings to a corporation (other than amounts received by
    Holdings from a new issuance of Equity Interests of Holdings for cash), plus
    (C) to the extent not otherwise included in Holdings' Consolidated Net
    Income, 100% of the cash dividends, if applicable, or distributions or the
    amount of the cash principal and interest payments received since the Issue
    Date by Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary from any Unrestricted
    Subsidiary or in respect of any Restricted Investment (other than dividends,
    if applicable, or distributions to pay obligations of or with respect to
    such Unrestricted Subsidiary such as income taxes) until the entire amount
    of the Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary has been received or the
    entire amount of such Restricted Investment has been returned, as the case
    may be, and 50% of such amounts thereafter. In the event that the Issuers
    convert an Unrestricted Subsidiary to a Restricted Subsidiary, the Issuers
    may add back to this clause (iii) the aggregate amount of any Investment in
    such Subsidiary that was a Restricted Payment at the time of such

paragraph shall not be taken into account for purposes of calculating the amount

purposes of making such determination, all outstanding Investments by Holdings
and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid in cash) in the

constitute Investments in an amount equal to the fair market value of such
Investments at the time of such designation. Such designation will only be
permitted if such Restricted Payment would be permitted at such time and if such
Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary.

Restricted Payments set forth in clauses (vi), (vii), (viii) and (xxiv) of
paragraph (c) of this covenant) shall be the fair market value on the date of
the Restricted Payment of the assets or securities proposed to be transferred or
issued by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant
to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any non-cash Restricted
Payment shall be determined by the Board of Managers whose resolution with
respect thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee. Not later than the date of
making any Restricted Payment, Holdings shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate stating that such Restricted Payment is permitted and
setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by the covenant
"Restricted Payments" were computed.

Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee
or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise,
with respect to (collectively, "incur" and correlatively, an "incurrence" of)
any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue any shares of
Disqualified Stock, and that Holdings will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to issue any shares of Preferred Stock.

    incurrence of Indebtedness thereunder for the purposes and subject to the
    maximum amounts and other limitations set forth in clauses (vii), (viii),
    (ix) and (xvi) of this paragraph; provided that for any amount of such
    Indebtedness incurred under this clause (i), the amount of Indebtedness
    permitted to be incurred under such other clause shall be correspondingly
    decreased;
 
          (ii) Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur any
    Existing Indebtedness, including any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness

    or such Restricted Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount, including

    leased with the proceeds thereof and (b) the aggregate principal amount of
    such Indebtedness, including any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred
    to refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this

<PAGE>
    clause (viii), does not exceed $80.0 million (including obligations
    characterized as operating leases or other off-balance sheet financing
    arrangements) outstanding at any time;
 
          (ix) to the extent that such incurrence does not result in incurrence
    by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any obligation for the
    payment of borrowed money of others, Holdings or any of its Restricted
    Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness solely in respect of performance bonds,
    standby letters of credit, bankers' acceptances or completion guarantees,
    PROVIDED, that such Indebtedness was incurred in the ordinary course of
    business of Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and in an
    aggregate principal amount outstanding under this clause (ix) at any one
    time of not more than $10.0 million;
 
          (x) the incurrence by Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary of (a) at
    any time prior to the Operating Deadline, additional Indebtedness under
    clause (i) or (viii) of this paragraph in an aggregate amount not to exceed
    $40.0 million, plus (b) after a default of the "In Balance" requirements of
    the Indenture and at any time prior to the Operating Deadline, additional
    Indebtedness under clause (i) or (viii) in an aggregate amount not to exceed
    $50.0 million (PROVIDED that Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause
    (x)(b) is matched, dollar for dollar, by additional equity investments by
    the Principals or any Related Party);
 
          (xi) after the Aladdin is Operating, Holdings may incur Indebtedness
    (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock if
    (a) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for Holdings' most recently ended four
    full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available
    immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is
    incurred or such Disqualified Stock is issued would have been at least 2.25
    to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application
    of the net proceeds therefrom) as if the additional Indebtedness had been
    incurred or the Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at
    the beginning of such four-quarter period;
 
          (xii) after the Aladdin is Operating, any Restricted Subsidiary of
    Holdings may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) if the
    Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for such Restricted Subsidiary's most recently
    ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are
    available immediately preceding the date on which such additional
    Indebtedness is incurred would have been at least 2.5 to 1.0, determined on
    a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds
    therefrom) as if the additional Indebtedness has been issued at the
    beginning of such four-quarter period;
 
          (xiii) Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Permitted
    Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are
    used to extend, refinance, renew, replace, substitute or refund Indebtedness
    that was permitted to be incurred under clauses (ii), (v), (vii), (xi),
    (xii) and (xiii) of this covenant;
 
          (xiv) after the Aladdin is Operating, intercompany Indebtedness
    between or among Holdings and any of its Wholly Owned Restricted
    Subsidiaries will be permitted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (a) if Holdings is
    the obligor on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness is expressly
    subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with
    respect to the Notes and (b)(1) any subsequent issuance or transfer of
    Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a
    Person other than Holdings or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary thereof
    and (2) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that
    is neither Holdings nor a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary thereof shall
    be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by
    Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not
    permitted by this clause (xiv);
 
          (xv) after the Aladdin is Operating, the guaranty by Holdings or any
    Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of Holdings or a Restricted Subsidiary
    that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this covenant will
    be permitted;
 
                                      116
<PAGE>
          (xvi) after the Aladdin is Operating, the Company may incur
    Indebtedness under any Working Capital Facility in an aggregate amount at
    any time outstanding not to exceed $20.0 million; and
 
          (xvii) Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness
    in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed $10.0 million.
 
      For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event
that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the
categories of Indebtedness permitted in clauses of the second or third paragraph
of this covenant, the Issuers shall, in their sole discretion, classify such
item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this covenant and such
item of Indebtedness will be treated as having been incurred pursuant to only
such clause or clauses. Accrual of interest, the accretion of the accreted value
or principal and the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness
will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this
covenant.
 
      The Indenture also provides that Holdings will not incur any Indebtedness
that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness
of Holdings unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right
of payment to Notes on substantially identical terms; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no
Indebtedness of Holdings shall be deemed to be contractually subordinated in
right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Holdings solely by virtue of being
unsecured.
 
    LIENS
 
      The Indenture provides that Holdings will not, and will not permit any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or
suffer to exist any Lien on any asset owned as of the Issue Date or thereafter
acquired, or any proceeds, income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any
right to receive income therefrom, unless the Notes are equally and ratably
secured (except that Liens securing Indebtedness which is subordinated to the
Notes shall not be permitted in any circumstances), except for (a) Liens
securing the Notes; (b) Liens securing Indebtedness which is incurred to
refinance Indebtedness which has been secured by a Lien permitted under the
Indenture and which has been incurred in accordance with the provisions of the
Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such Liens do not extend to or cover any
property or assets of Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries not
securing the Indebtedness so refinanced; and (c) Permitted Liens.
 
    DISTRIBUTION AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING RESTRICTED
     SUBSIDIARIES
 
      The Indenture provides that Holdings will not, and will not permit any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise
cause or suffer to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on
the ability of any such Restricted Subsidiary to (i) (a) pay dividends, if
applicable, or make any other distributions to Holdings or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries (1) on its Capital Stock or (2) with respect to any other interest
or participation in, or measured by, its profits or (b) pay any Indebtedness
owed to Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (ii) make loans or
advances to Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (iii) transfer any
of its properties or assets to Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
except, in each case, for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by
reason of (a) the Bank Credit Facility, as in effect as of the Issue Date, and
any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements,
refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof, PROVIDED that such amendments,
modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings,
replacements or refinancings, are no more restrictive with respect to such
dividend, if applicable, and other payment restrictions than those contained in
the Bank Credit Facility as in effect on the Issue Date, (b) the Indenture and
the Notes, (c) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a
Person acquired by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect
at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness was
incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which
encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or
assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the
Person, so acquired, PROVIDED that in the case of
 
                                      117
<PAGE>
Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of the Indenture to
be incurred, PROVIDED, FURTHER, that any amendments, modifications,
restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or
refinancings of any such instrument are no more restrictive, taken as a whole,
than those contained in such instrument, (d) customary non-assignment provisions
in leases entered into in the ordinary course of business, (e) purchase money
obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose
restrictions of the nature discussed in clause (iii) above on the property so
acquired, (f) any agreement for the sale of a Restricted Subsidiary that
restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale, (g)
applicable law or any applicable rule or order of any Gaming Authority, (h)
Permitted Liens, (i) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, PROVIDED that the
restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing
Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in
the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced, (j) secured
Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to the provisions of
the covenant described above under the caption "--Liens" that limits or
restricts the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such
Indebtedness, (k) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of
assets or property in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements
entered into in the ordinary course of business, (l) rights of first refusal
substantially of the type set forth in the Operating Agreement, (m) contractual

restrictions imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals,

contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (b) and (d) through
(n) above, PROVIDED, that such amendments, modifications, restatements,
renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are,
in the good faith judgment of the Board of Managers, no more restrictive with
respect to such dividend, if applicable, and other payment restrictions than
those contained in the dividend, if applicable, or other payment restrictions
prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase,
supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing.
 
    MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS
 
      The Indenture provides that neither of the Issuers will and Holdings will
not permit the Company to, consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not
such entity is the surviving entity), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in
one or more related transactions (other than (i) the transfer of the Aladdin
Site and other assets of the Company as a result of the exercise of remedies in
respect of the Deed of Trust and other Lender security documents, including a
foreclosure by the Lenders pursuant to the terms of the Deed of Trust or the
acceptance by the Lenders of a transfer in lieu of foreclosure or other exercise
of remedies and (ii) the transfer of the Common Membership Interests as a result
of the exercise of remedies by the Lenders in respect of the pledge of such
Common Membership Interests pursuant to the Lenders' security documents) to, any
Person unless (i) such Issuer or the Company is the surviving Person or the
Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than
such Issuer or the Company) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease,
conveyance or other disposition will have been made is a Person organized or
existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District
of Columbia; (ii) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger (if other than such Issuer or the Company) or the Person to which such
sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have
been made assumes all the obligations of such Issuer (but not the Company),
under the Note Registration Rights Agreement, the Notes, the Indenture and the
Pledge Agreements in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; (iii)
immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default exists; (iv)
such transaction will not result in the loss or suspension or material
impairment of any material Gaming Approval; (v) except in the case of a merger
of such Issuer or the Company with or into a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary
of such Issuer, such Issuer or any Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer or the Company), or to which
such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will
have been made (a) will have Consolidated Net Worth immediately after the
transaction equal to or greater than the Consolidated Net Worth of such Issuer
or
 
                                      118
<PAGE>
the Company, as the case may be, immediately preceding the transaction and (b)
will, at the time of such transaction and after giving pro forma effect thereto
as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable
four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional
Indebtedness pursuant to (A) in the case of a merger of either of the Issuers,
the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test described above in clause (xi) of the
second paragraph under the caption "Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness
and Issuance of Preferred Stock" and (B) in the case of a merger of the Company,
the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test described above in clause (xii) of the
second paragraph under the caption "Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness
and Issuance of Preferred Stock"; and (vi) such transaction would not require
any Holder or beneficial owner of Notes (other than any Person acquiring such
Issuer or the Company or its assets and any Affiliate thereof) to obtain a
gaming license or be qualified or found suitable under the law of any applicable
gaming jurisdiction; PROVIDED that such Holder or beneficial owner would not
have been required to obtain a gaming license or be qualified or found suitable
under the laws of any applicable gaming jurisdiction in the absence of such
transaction. The Indenture will provide that, notwithstanding the above, neither
of the Issuers may consolidate or merge into the other prior to and in
connection with a Qualified Public Offering.
 
    TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
      The Indenture provides that Holdings will not, and will not permit any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries
to, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or
assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or
amend any transaction contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or
guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each of the foregoing, an
"Affiliate Transaction"), unless (i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that

of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries to, transfer, convey, sell, lease or
otherwise dispose of any Capital Stock of any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary
of Holdings (other than the transfer of Common Membership Interests as a result
of the exercise of remedies by the Lenders in respect of the pledge of such
Common Membership Interests pursuant to the Lenders' security documents) to any

become liable for any obligations or engage in any business activities; PROVIDED
that Capital may be a co-obligor of the Notes pursuant to the terms of the
Indenture and may engage in any activities directly related thereto or necessary
in connection therewith.

      Holdings shall not permit the Company to amend the provisions of the
Series A Preferred Interests in any manner that would be adverse to the Holders
of the Notes. In addition, Holdings shall not permit the Company to authorize,
create (by way of reclassification or otherwise) or issue any class or series
of, or any obligation or security convertible or exchangeable into or evidencing
a right to purchase shares of any class of, Capital Stock of the Company ranking

    LIMITATIONS ON STATUS AS INVESTMENT COMPANY
 
      The Indenture prohibits Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries from

in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), or from otherwise becoming
subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
 
    REPORTS
 
      The Indenture provides that, whether or not required by the rules and
regulations of the Commission, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Issuers
will furnish to the Holders (i) all quarterly and annual financial information
that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms
10-Q and 10-K if the Issuers were required to file such Forms, including a

prospective investors upon request. In addition, the Issuers have agreed that,
for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, they will furnish to the Holders
and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the
information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the
Securities Act.

Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is
guaranteed by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such
Indebtedness now exists or is created after the Issue Date, which default (a) is
caused by a failure to pay when due principal of or premium, if any, or interest
on such Indebtedness (other than the Bank Credit Facility) prior to the later of
(1) 60 days after such default and (2) the expiration of the grace period
provided in such Indebtedness (a "Payment Default") which Payment Default,
together with all other Payment Defaults, exceeds $1.0 million or (b) results in
the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity and, in each
case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal
amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment
Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $15.0
million or more; (vi) failure by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $10.0 million, which judgments
remain unpaid, undischarged and unstayed for a period of more than 60 days;
(vii) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to Holdings or any
of its Significant Subsidiaries; (viii) default by each of the Trust, London
Clubs and Bazaar Holdings in the performance of their material obligations set
forth in the Keep-Well Agreement, which default remains uncured for 180 days, or
default by AHL, London Clubs and Bazaar Holdings in the performance of their
material obligations set forth in the Noteholder Completion Guaranty or
repudiation by each of them of their respective obligations under the Keep-Well
Agreement, which has not been ratified and reaffirmed within 180 days, or the
Noteholder Completion Guaranty; (ix) breach by Holdings of any material
representation or warranty set forth in either of the Pledge Agreements or
default by Holdings in the performance of any material covenant set forth in
either of such agreements or repudiation by Holdings of
 
                                      122
<PAGE>
its obligations under either of such agreements or the unenforceability of
either of such agreements against Holdings for any reason; (x) the termination
of the Bank Credit Facility (other than pursuant to a refinancing thereof in
accordance with its terms and with the terms of clause (i) under the second
paragraph under the caption "Certain Covenants--Limitations on Incurrence of
Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock") or the repudiation of the Lenders
obligations thereunder, including without limitation, the withdrawal of the
proceeds of the Term B Loans and Term C Loans from the Bank Construction
Disbursement Account, in each case prior to the date the Aladdin is Operating
(except for disbursements in accordance with the Disbursement Agreement); (xi)
(a) failure of the Desert Passage to be Operating on or prior to 90 days after
the date the Aladdin becomes Operating and (b) at any time thereafter and prior
to the date on which the Desert Passage becomes Operating, the Company's Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio for its most recently ended four full fiscal quarters (or
such lesser number of quarters as have ended after the Aladdin became Operating)
for which internal financial statements are available is not at least 1.75 to
1.0; (xii) after the Aladdin becomes Operating, revocation, termination,
suspension or other cessation of effectiveness of any Gaming Approval, which
results in the cessation or suspension of gaming operations for a period of more
than 90 days at the Aladdin; (xiii) the failure of the Aladdin to be Operating
by the Operating Deadline; (xiv) the transfer of the Aladdin Site as a result of
the exercise of remedies in respect of the Deed of Trust, including a
foreclosure by the Lenders pursuant to the terms of the Deed of Trust or the
acceptance by the Lenders of a deed in lieu of foreclosure; and (xv) the
transfer of the Common Membership Interests as a result of the exercise of
remedies by the Lenders in respect of the pledge of such Common Membership
Interests pursuant to the Lender's security documents.
 
      If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the
Holders of at least 25% in Accreted Value of the then outstanding Notes may
declare the Accreted Value of the Notes (together with all other amounts
outstanding thereunder) to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of
bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to the Issuers, any Significant
Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable
without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the
Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations,
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may
withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default
(except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or
interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.
 
      In the case of any Event of Default occurring by reason of any willful
action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of the Issuers with
the intention of avoiding payment of any premium that the Issuers would have had
to pay if the Issuers then had elected to redeem the Notes pursuant to the
optional redemption provisions of the Indenture, an equivalent premium shall
also become and be immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law.
 
      The Holders of a majority of the aggregate Accreted Value of the then
outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all
of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences
under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the
payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of, any Note held by a
non-consenting holder.
 
      The Issuers are required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement
regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuers are required, within
five Business Days, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default or
any default under any document, instrument or agreement representing
Indebtedness of the Issuers, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying
such Default or Event of Default.
 
                                      123
<PAGE>
NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, INCORPORATORS
  OR MEMBERS
 
      No director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator or member of the
Issuers shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers under the
Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of
such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes.
 
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE
 
      The Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have all of
their obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes ("Legal
Defeasance") except for (i) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to
receive payments in respect of the Accreted Value of, premium, if any, interest
and Liquidated Damages, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due solely
out of the trust referred to below, (ii) the Issuers' obligations with respect
to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes,
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or
agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust, (iii) the
rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuers'
obligations in connection therewith and (iv) the Legal Defeasance provisions of
the Indenture. In addition, the Issuers may, at their option and at any time,
elect to have the obligations of the Issuers released with respect to certain
covenants that are described in the Indenture ("Covenant Defeasance") and
thereafter any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In the event Covenant
Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy,
receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under "Events of
Default" will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the
Notes.
 
      In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, (i)
the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit
of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a
combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the
Accreted Value of, premium, if any, interest and Liquidated Damages, if
applicable, on the outstanding Notes on the stated maturity date or on the
applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and must specify whether the
Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; (ii) in
the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an
opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
confirming that (A) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published
by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the Issue
Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in
either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel in the
United States shall confirm that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not
recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result
of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the
same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the
case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; (iii) in the case of Covenant
Defeasance, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of
counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming
that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or
loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant
Defeasance and will be subject to such tax on the same amounts, in the same
manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant
Defeasance had not occurred; (iv) no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or
Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such
deposit) or insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency events
are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date
of deposit; (v) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in
a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement
or instrument (other than the Indenture) to which the Issuers or any of their
Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries is
bound; (vi) after the passage of 91 days following the deposit (or, with respect
to any deposit
 
                                      124
<PAGE>
transferred for the benefit of any person who may be deemed to be an "insider"
of the Issuers under 11 U.S.C. Section 101(31), after the passage of one year
following such transfer), such deposit will not be subject to avoidance under 11
U.S.C. Section 547 if the Issuers were subsequently to become the subject of a
case under title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (vii) the Issuers must
have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit
was not made by the Issuers with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or
defrauding any creditors of the Issuers or others; and (viii) the Issuers must
have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an opinion of counsel
(which opinion may be subject to customary exclusions, qualifications and
assumptions) in the United States each stating that all conditions precedent
provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have
been complied with.
 
TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE
 
      A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture.
The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to
furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuers may
require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. The Issuers are not required to transfer or exchange any Note
selected for redemption. Also, the Issuers are not required to transfer or
exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be
redeemed.
 
      The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of it for all
purposes.
 
AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER
 
      Except as provided in the next two succeeding paragraphs, the Indenture or
the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at
least a majority in Accreted Value of the then outstanding Notes (including,
without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or
tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and any existing default or
compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with
the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Accreted Value of the then
outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in
connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes).
 
      Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may
not (with respect to any Notes held by a nonconsenting Holder): (i) reduce the
Accreted Value of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement
or waiver; (ii) reduce the Accreted Value of or change the fixed maturity of any
Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (other
than provisions relating to the covenants described above under the caption
"--Repurchase at the Option of Holders") or amend or modify the calculation of
the Accreted Value so as to reduce the amount of the Accreted Value of the
Notes; (iii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on
any Note; (iv) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of Accreted
Value of, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on the Notes
(except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the payment
default that resulted from such acceleration); (v) make any Note payable in
money other than that stated in the Notes; (vi) make any change in the
provisions of the Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights
of Holders to receive payments of Accreted Value of or premium and Liquidated
Damages, if any, or interest on Notes; (vii) waive a redemption payment with
respect to any Note (other than a payment required by one of the covenants
described above under the caption "--Repurchase at the Option of Holders"); or
(vii) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions.
 
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any holder of Notes,
the Issuers and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes
to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated
Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the
assumption of the Issuers' obligations to the Holders in the case of a merger or
consolidation or sale of all
 
                                      125
<PAGE>
or substantially all of Holdings' assets, to make any change that would provide
any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely
affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, or to comply
with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the
qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act.
 
   
      Under the Indenture, the Issuers have agreed to waive the benefit and
advantage of any stay, extension or usury law that may affect the covenants or
the performance of the Indenture. The Issuers have been informed by counsel
that, in the opinion of counsel, this provision may not be enforceable.
    
 
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
 
      The Indenture contains certain limitations on the rights of the Trustee,
should it become a creditor of the Issuers, to obtain payment of claims in
certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such
claim as security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted to engage in other
transactions; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate
such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue
or resign.
 
      The Holders of a majority in Accreted Value of the then outstanding Notes
will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy, available to the Trustee, subject to
certain exceptions. The Indenture provides that in case an Event of Default
shall occur (which shall not be cured), the Trustee will be required, in the
exercise of its power, to use the degree of care of a prudent person in the
conduct of its own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the Trustee will be
under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture
at the request of any Holder, unless such holder shall have offered to the
Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or
expense.
 
GOVERNING LAW
 
      The Indenture and the Notes are governed by and shall be construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to
the choice of law rules thereof, except to the extent of the mandatory
provisions of the Nevada Gaming Control Act.

         Plans and Specifications lien-free other than Permitted Liens;
 
    (iv) the Company will provide the expertise necessary to supervise such work
         at no cost to the Trustee;
 
    (v) in the event the Guarantors fail to pay and/or perform their respective
        obligations under the Noteholder Completion Guaranty, the Trustee (in
        addition to any other rights and remedies afforded by applicable law)
        may pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations on behalf of the
        Guarantors, in which case the Guarantors, upon demand, must reimburse
        the Trustee for all costs, expenses and liabilities incurred in
        connection therewith; and
 
    (vi) the Guarantors shall pay the Trustee all reasonable out-of-pocket costs

           or Insolvency Proceeding of the Company which impairs the Bank
           Lenders directly or indirectly from enforcing the Bank Completion
           Guaranty has occurred and is continuing which such extension shall
           terminate upon the filing by the Bank Lenders of an action against
           the Guarantors under the Bank Completion Guaranty to enforce the
           obligations of the Guarantors thereunder which are susceptible of
           performance notwithstanding the Insolvency Proceeding of the Company)

so long as in connection with each such amendment the Construction Consultant
certifies to the Trustee that, after giving effect to such amendment, (i) the
Minimum Aladdin Facilities are still capable of being completed by the Operating
Deadline, and (ii) the Guarantors have consented to such amendment) shall be
deemed to be performance of the corresponding obligations under the Noteholder
Completion Guaranty and performance in all material respects of the obligations

Noteholders has covenanted and agreed that the rights, remedies and options of
the Trustee under the Noteholder Completion Guaranty in no way restrict the
rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Bank Lenders under the
Bank Credit Facility or any security therefor including, without limitation, the
right to commence and prosecute to completion enforcement of the Bank Credit
Facility and any documents evidencing or securing the obligations under the Bank
Credit Facility. The Trustee agreed on its own behalf and on behalf of the
Noteholders that no Person shall have any right whatsoever to interpose a right
of offset, defense, claim or counterclaim with respect to any enforcement of the
Bank Credit Facility documents based upon a claim that the Trustee has the right

commenced or prosecuted or judgment thereon can be executed by or on behalf of
the Bank Lenders.

connection with each such amendment, the Construction Consultant certifies to
the Trustee that (i) after giving effect to the amendment, the Approved Plans
and Specifications (as so amended) continue to call for the construction of the

           DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS
 
    The following discussion summarizes the material terms of certain material
financing agreements which are either in place or are currently being negotiated
between the Company (and/or the Controlling Stockholders) and various other
parties. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the full agreements described herein once finalized and
executed. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meaning ascribed to such terms in the agreement being described (unless
otherwise indicated).
 
BANK CREDIT FACILITY
 
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE BANK CREDIT FACILITY.  The Company has entered
into the Bank Credit Facility with a syndicate of lenders (the "Bank Lenders"),
Scotiabank, as Administrative Agent, CIBC Oppenheimer Corp. as documentation
agent (the "Documentation Agent"), and Merrill Lynch Capital Corporation
("Merrill"), as the syndication agent ("Syndication Agent"). The Bank Credit
Facility, which comprises senior secured construction/term loan facilities,
consists of three construction/term loans: (i) the $136.0 million Term A Loan
that has a stated maturity date of seven years from the closing date of the Bank
Credit Facility (the "Bank Closing Date"), (ii) the $114.0 million Term B Loan
that has a stated maturity date of eight and one half years from the Bank
Closing Date, and (iii) the $160.0 million Term C Loan that has a stated
maturity date of ten years from the Bank Closing Date (each term loan, a
"Loan"). The Loans will convert from construction loans into amortizing term
loans on a date (the "Conversion Date") which is the earlier of (x) the issuance
of a permanent certificate of occupancy for the Aladdin (which must include
appropriate parking facilities) and operating permits for the Plant or (y) the
completion of the Aladdin and the Plant as determined by the Administrative
Agent and the Construction Consultant. The proceeds of the Bank Credit Facility
shall be used by the Company to finance a portion of the main Project Costs. The
maximum amount of the Bank Credit Facility shall be $410.0 million plus, subject
to certain conditions, certain additional amounts as described under
"Description of the Notes-- Certain Covenants."
 
   
    On the date on which the initial Advance was made, the Bank Lenders that had
committed to make the Term B Loan and the Term C Loan, advanced their respective
committed amounts thereof to an account (the "Cash Collateral Account") over
which the Disbursement Agent has dominion and control, and a perfected first
security interest for the benefit of the Bank Lenders which have advanced the
Term B Loan and the Term C Loan. The proceeds of the Term B Loan and the Term C
Loan were not permitted to be disbursed from the Cash Collateral Account until
all of the proceeds of the Offering had been expended. In June, 1998, the
Company began to use a portion of such proceeds in the construction of the
Aladdin. The use of the remaining proceeds of the Term B Loan and Term C Loan in
the construction of the Aladdin is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
in the Disbursement Agreement. All the proceeds of the Term B Loan and the Term
C Loan must be fully disbursed from the Cash Collateral Account prior to any
advance of the Term A Loan (other than advances of the Term A Loan which are
made to reimburse Scotiabank (in such capacity, the "LC Issuer") for
disbursements made in respect of Letters of Credit which have been drawn upon).
Disbursements from the Cash Collateral Account (with respect to the Term B Loan
and the Term C Loan) and advances of the Term A Loan shall be made in accordance
with the Disbursement Agreement but no advances under the Bank Credit Facility
shall be made on or after the Conversion Date.
    
 
    LETTERS OF CREDIT.  The Bank Credit Facility provides that the Company may
from time to time (prior to a certain period preceding the Conversion Date)
request that one or more letters of credit (the "Letters of Credit") be issued
or extended if required as a deposit by suppliers and/or contractors providing
materials to the Aladdin; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no Letter of Credit shall be issued
for the Gaming Equipment and Specified Equipment which is covered by the FF&E
Financing. The aggregate amount of such Letters of Credit shall not exceed $20.0
million.
 
                                      147
<PAGE>
    MATURITY DATE OF THE BANK CREDIT FACILITY.  The entire outstanding principal
balance of the Loans, together with all unpaid interest thereon and other
amounts due to the respective Bank Lenders under the documents pursuant to which
the Loans were made (the "Loan Documents") is due and payable in immediately
available funds on the stated maturity date of each Loan.
 
    The maturity dates of the Loans shall be the earlier of (a) the date upon
which the Loans become immediately due and payable by reason of the occurrence
of an event of default under the Loan Documents (beyond the expiration of
applicable grace, notice and cure periods) and (b) the above mentioned stated
maturity date for each Loan.
 
    INTEREST RATE.  At the Company's option, the Loans will bear interest at
either Scotiabank's (i) alternate base rate (the "Alternate Base Rate" or "ABR")
or (ii) reserve adjusted LIBOR plus, in each case, the applicable following
margins.
 
        (a) In the case of the Term A Loan and prior to the date which is 6
    months after the Conversion Date, the following margin applies: Alternate
    Base Rate +200 bps and reserve adjusted LIBOR +300 bps.
 
        (b) As regards the Term A Loan, from and after the date which is six
    months after the Conversion Date, the applicable margin set forth in the
    currently effective compliance certificate applies:

    which are being held in the Cash Collateral Account, the Alternate Base Rate

        (d) With respect to all portions of the Term B Loan and the Term C Loan
    which have been disbursed from the Cash Collateral Account, the Term B Loan
    and Term C Loan will bear interest based at either LIBOR or the Alternate
    Base Rate, in both cases, plus a certain margin.
 
    OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS.  The Bank Credit Facility allows the Company to
prepay, at its option, certain of the Loans under certain conditions.
 
    SCHEDULED AMORTIZATION.  From and after the Conversion Date, the principal
amount of the Bank Credit Facility will be amortized (the "Scheduled
Amortization") on certain scheduled quarterly dates (ranging from 20 scheduled
quarters for the Term A Loan, 26 scheduled quarters for the Term B Loans and 32
scheduled quarters for the Term C Loan) and in certain amounts (ranging from
$4.0 million to $10.0 million per quarter for the Term A Loan, $300,000 to $20.0
million per quarter for the Term B Loan, and $400,000 to $25.5 million per
quarter for the Term C Loan).
 
    MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.  From and after the Conversion Date, the Company
shall make mandatory prepayments of principal (the "Mandatory Prepayments") in
addition to the Scheduled Amortization on certain scheduled quarterly dates and
in certain amounts based on a percentage of the Excess Cash Flow from the
Aladdin. In addition to the foregoing payments and the Scheduled Amortization,
the entire outstanding principal balance of the Bank Credit Facility shall
become immediately due and payable (and any outstanding Letters of Credit shall
be cash collateralized) and the obligation of any Bank Lender which has
committed to make a Term A Loan or participate in the Letters of Credit shall
automatically terminate (a) upon a sale, transfer or conveyance of or borrowing
against (whether or not secured by) the
 
                                      148
<PAGE>
Aladdin not otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, (b) a change of control
(as defined in the Bank Credit Facility) or (c) if no disbursement of any
proceeds of the Term B Loan or the Term C Loan is made from the Cash Collateral
Account within twelve months after the Bank Closing Date (subject to Force
Majeure Events). Subject to certain Bank Lenders' rights to elect not to receive
a Mandatory Prepayment, Mandatory Prepayments of the Bank Credit Facility will
be applied in the inverse order against the Scheduled Amortization PRO RATA
among the Term A Loan, the Term B Loan and the Term C Loan. The Loan Documents
provide, in relevant part, that the amount of any Mandatory Prepayment of the
Term B Loan and the Term C Loan which is due from the Company with respect to a
change of control of the Company or the interests of the Sponsors (excluding a
transfer of the Sponsor interests resulting from the exercise of warrants issued
in connection with the Notes) shall be 101% of the principal amount of the Term
B Loan and the Term C Loan.
 
    COMMITMENT FEE.  From and after the Bank Closing Date and until the
Conversion Date, a non-refundable fee (the "Term A Loan Commitment Fee") in the
amount of 0.5% per annum of the unfunded portion of the Term A Loan shall accrue
on the daily average unfunded portion of the Term A Loan. The Term A Loan
Commitment Fee shall be payable to the Bank Lenders which have made a commitment
to make the Term A Loan on the last business day of each calendar quarter in
arrears in proportion to their respective unfunded commitments of the Term A
Loan.
 
    SECURITY.  As security for the Bank Credit Facility, the Company has entered
into a deed of trust in favor of the Bank Lenders securing the Notes and all
obligations of the Company under the Loan Documents, encumbering the Aladdin
(including any and all leasehold interests) as a first priority lien, subject
only to those title exceptions approved by the Administrative Agent.
 
    The Company has assigned all present and future leases, rents, issues and
profits in favor of the Bank Lenders, assigning to the Bank Lenders such leases
pertaining to the Aladdin, including the Ground Leases and the Theater Lease
and, to the extent they are assignable, the contracts, agreements, proposals,
permits, approvals, plans and specifications pertaining to the Aladdin.
 
    In addition, the Company has entered into security agreements granting to
the Bank Lenders a continuing first priority security interest in all accounts,
accounts receivable, all reserves, all licenses (other than liquor licenses and
those granted pursuant to Gaming Approvals to the extent they cannot be
assigned), Specified Equipment and Gaming Equipment installed in, affixed to,
placed upon and used in connection with the Aladdin which are owned or leased by
the Company (subject to the rights of the FF&E Lender under the FF&E Financing),
the Marks and all other tangible or intangible personal property owned by the
Company.
 
    As further security for the Bank Credit Facility, (a) AHL has entered into a
pledge and security agreement pledging all of its interest in Sommer Enterprises
to the Bank Lenders; (b) Sommer Enterprises has entered into a pledge and
security agreement pledging all of its interests in Enterprises and Holdings to
the Bank Lenders; (c) Enterprises has entered into a pledge and security
agreement pledging all of its interests in Holdings (other than the interests
relating to the Warrants which have been issued by Enterprises in connection
with the Offering) to the Bank Lenders; (d) Holdings has entered into a pledge
and security agreement pledging all of its interest in the Company to the Bank
Lenders other than the Series A Preferred Interests; (e) the Company has entered
into a pledge and security agreement pledging all of its interest in AMH to the
Bank Lenders; (f) AMH has entered into a pledge and security agreement pledging
all of its interest in Aladdin Music to the Bank Lenders; (g) LCNI has entered
into a pledge and security agreement pledging all of its interest in Holdings to
the Bank Lenders; and (h) Holdings has entered into a pledge and security
agreement pledging all of its interest in Capital to the Bank Lenders. The
pledges of the equity securities of those entities registered as holding
companies or licensed by the Nevada Commission will require the approval of the
Nevada Commission in order to remain effective. In addition, if such companies
are registered and licensed (as applicable), separate approvals will be required
to foreclose on the pledges and such approvals will require the licensing of the
Bank Lenders unless such
 
                                      149
<PAGE>
requirement is waived by the Nevada Gaming Authorities upon application by the
Bank Lenders. Furthermore, if the Company is licensed by the Nevada Gaming
Authorities at any time during the term of the Bank Credit Facility, the Bank
Lenders will be subject to being called forward by the Nevada Gaming
Authorities, in their descretion, for licensing or a finding of suitablility as
lenders to a Company Licensee.
 
    IN BALANCE REQUIREMENTS.  The Bank Credit Facility and the Disbursement
Agreement include loan balancing provisions requiring the Company to deposit
additional monies into the Cash Collateral Account if the Administrative Agent
and the Bank Lender's Consultant reasonably determine that the Bank Credit
Facility is not "In Balance." The Bank Credit Facility will be considered "In
Balance" when undisbursed portions of the Bank Credit Facility allocated to each
line item category in the Budget equals or exceeds such line item category,
contingency requirements have been satisfied and the guaranteed maximum price is
in effect.
 
    AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.  The Bank Credit Facility contains customary
affirmative covenants for the type of transaction proposed, including, without
limitation, the following: (a) the Company will construct the Aladdin and
perform all the work required under the other Loan Documents, (b) the Company
will operate the Aladdin as a first-class casino hotel, (c) the Company will
maintain adequate reserves and (d) the Company will provide the Administrative
Agent with certain financial information.

covenants for the type of transaction proposed, including, without limitation,
the following: (a) restrictions on the incurrence of debt, sale leasebacks and
contingent liabilities; (b) restrictions on making dividends or similar
distributions; (c) restrictions on the incurrence of liens or other
encumbrances; (d) restrictions on the sale of assets or other similar transfers;
(e) restrictions on investments or acquisitions; (f) restrictions on mergers,
consolidations and similar combinations; (g) restrictions on transactions with
affiliates; (h) limitations on capital expenditures; (i) restrictions on
adjustments or reallocations against line items in the Budget; and (j)
restrictions on any amendment or modification of certain material agreements.
Any restrictions on the transfer of and agreements not to encumber the equity
securities of any registered holding company of the Company will require the
approval of the Nevada Commission in order to remain effective.
 
    FINANCIAL COVENANTS.  The Bank Credit Facility contains certain financial
covenants, including, without limitation, the following: minimum fixed charge
coverage; minimum interest coverage; maximum debt to EBITDA; minimum EBITDA and
minimum net worth.
 
    EVENTS OF DEFAULT.  The Bank Credit Facility contains events of default
customary for the type of transaction proposed including, without limitation, a
cross-default to other indebtedness or agreements of the Company, London Clubs,

FF&E FINANCING
 
   
    LEASE FACILITY.  The Company entered into a lease facility (the "Lease
Facility") with the FF&E Lender for the purpose of acquiring approximately $60
million of new furniture and equipment (other than gaming equipment) for the
Aladdin. The Lease Facility contains provision as described herein and is
structured as a lease intended for security (the "Lease"). The Company will be
considered the owner of the Specified Equipment (as defined herein) for tax
purposes and the lease will be treated as an operating lease for accounting
purposes. The lease will commence on the date on which the Aladdin will be
completed (the "Construction Completion Date" or the "Basic Lease Term
Commencement Date") and will terminate three years from the Basic Lease Term
Commencement Date (the "Basic Lease Term"), however, the Lease may be renewed up
to two one-year renewals from the end of the Basic Lease Term (the "Renewal
Lease Term").
    
 
                                      150
<PAGE>
    Payments will be made quarterly, in arrears, calculated such that there will
be 80% amortization of principal at the end of the Basic Lease Term and the
maximum two Renewal Lease Terms. The remaining balloon payment will be twenty
percent of the principal.
 
    A lease rental factor (the "Lease Rental Factor") will be calculated to be
5.6639% of 100% of the Company's acquisition cost of the Specified Equipment up
to $60.0 million (the "Lease Funding Amount") per quarter. The Lease Rental
Factor was calculated at an interest rate of 10.444% which represents a spread
of 478 bps over the reserve adjusted 90-day LIBOR (the "Base Index") (5.9375%).
Five days prior to the Basic Lease Term Commencement Date, the Lease Rental
Factor will be adjusted and calculated on the basis of the floating rate Base
Index plus the higher of (a) 478 bps, or (b) the weighted average spread used to
calculate the interest rate on the Bank Credit Facility plus 125 bps, and such
spread shall be maintained throughout the Basic Lease Term and any available
Renewal Lease Terms. The Lease Rental Factor will be adjusted quarterly based on
changes to the Base Index.
 
   
    Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent and to there being
no default, the FF&E Lender will commence funding of deliveries of the Specified
Equipment and/or the Gaming Equipment (as defined herein) beginning six months
prior to the Construction Completion Date (the "Interim Funding Date").
    
 
    An interim lease funding amount (the "Interim Lease Funding Amount") of up
to $60.0 million will be available, subject to no default then having occurred
and continuing under the Company's financing, construction or other material
agreements, and satisfaction of all conditions precedent to funding. Advances of
the Interim Lease Funding Amount shall be made once per month during the Interim
Funding Period. Any Interim Lease Funding Amount advanced under the Lease
Facility shall be made under an interim schedule, which shall be converted to a
final schedule under the Lease on the Basic Lease Term Commencement Date.
 
    The interim lease repayment terms (the "Interim Lease Repayment Terms") will
be floating rate interest-only payments due monthly in arrears during the period
from the Interim Funding Date through the Construction Completion Date (the
"Interim Funding Period") based on the Interim Lease Funding Amount. At the
Company's option, interest will be calculated at either (a) the reserve adjusted
30-day LIBOR on the date of determination ("30-day LIBOR") plus the higher of
(i) 478 bps, or (ii) the weighted average spread used to calculate the interest
rate of the Bank Credit Facility plus 125 bps, or (b) the prime rate published
in the Wall Street Journal on the date of the determination (the "Prime Rate")
plus 275 bps, and such spread shall be fixed throughout the Interim Funding
Period, and 30-day LIBOR or the Prime Rate will be adjusted monthly based on
changes thereto.
 
    Subject to certain provisions, at the end of the Basic Lease Term or any
Renewal Lease term, the Company may (i) purchase all, but not less than all, of
the Specified Equipment at a fixed purchase price, estimated to represent the
Specified Equipment's then fair value, (ii) renew the Lease for all, but not
less than all, of the Specified Equipment for up to two additional one-year
terms, or (iii) return all, but not less than all, of the Specified Equipment to
the FF&E Lender subject to certain return conditions, including payment of a
contingent rental amount.
 
    Upon termination of the Lease at the end of the Basic Lease Term or any
Renewal Lease term, should the Specified Equipment be returned to the FF&E
Lender by the Company, the FF&E Lender will calculate a contingent rental for
the full lease term, on a quarterly basis, based on certain factors.
 
   
    TERM LOAN FACILITY.  The Company has entered into a $20 million five year
term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility") with the FF&E Lender for the
purposes of purchasing new gaming equipment for the Aladdin. The Term Loan
Facility contains terms as described herein. The term loan commencement date is
the Construction Completion Date (the "Term Loan Commencement Date").
    
 
                                      151
<PAGE>
    Payments shall be made quarterly, in arrears, calculated such that principal
will be amortized as follows:
 
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
QUARTER    PERCENT AMORTIZATION
- ---------  ---------------------
<S>        <C>
   1-4                3.25

   20                24.75
</TABLE>
 
    The interest rate (the "Interest Rate") will be calculated five days prior
to the Term Loan Commencement Date on the basis of the floating rate Base Index
plus the higher of (a) 478 bps, or (b) the weighted average spread used to
calculate the interest rate on the Bank Credit Facility on such date plus 125
bps, and such spread shall be maintained throughout the five year term. The
Interest Rate will be adjusted quarterly, based on changes to the Base Index, if
applicable.
 
    An interim term loan funding amount (the "Interim Term Loan Funding Amount")
of up to $20.0 million will be available, subject to no default then having
occurred and continuing under the Company's financing, construction or other
material agreements and satisfaction of all conditions precedent to funding.
Advances of the Interim Term Loan Funding Amount shall be made once per month
during the Interim Funding Period. An Interim Term Loan Funding Amount advanced
under the Term Loan Facility shall be evidenced by an interim promissory note,
which shall be converted to a final promissory note on the Term Loan
Commencement Date.
 
    The interim term loan repayment terms (the "Interim Term Loan Repayment
Terms") will be floating rate interest-only payments due monthly in arrears
during the Interim Funding Period based on the Interim Term Loan Funding Amount.
At the Company's option, interest will be calculated at either (a) the 30-day
LIBOR plus the higher of (i) 478 bps, or (ii) the weighted average spread used
to calculate the interest rate of the Bank Credit Facility plus 125 bps, or (b)
the Prime Rate plus 275 bps, and such spread shall be fixed throughout the
Interim Funding Period and 30-Day LIBOR or the Prime Rate will be adjusted
monthly based on changes thereto.
 
    SECURITY.  The security interests granted by the Company will be a first
priority security interest in a pool of new furniture and equipment (other than
gaming equipment) (the "Specified Equipment"), and specified new gaming
equipment including gaming devices such as slot machines, cashless wagering
systems and associated equipment (the "Gaming Equipment"), and assignment of all
improvements and/or additions to the Specified Equipment and the Gaming
Equipment hereafter acquired. The Specified Equipment and the Gaming Equipment
will be required to be free of all junior liens or encumbrances. Any and all
existing and to be issued obligations of the Company shall acknowledge that the
Term Loan Facility and the Lease Facility have a first priority lien on the
Gaming Equipment and the Specified Equipment. During the Interim Funding Period,
the Company shall assign to the FF&E Lender its rights under the purchase
contracts for the Specified Equipment.
 
    CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.  The FF&E Financing is subject to customary conditions
precedent.
 
   
    COVENANTS AND EVENTS OF DEFAULT.  Except for covenants related to the
Specified Equipment or the Gaming Equipment, the covenants and events of default
in the FF&E Financing are similar to those in the Bank Credit Facility. The
disposition of collateral consisting of Gaming Equipment is subject to the
requirements of the Nevada Act, including the approval of the Nevada Board or
the licensing of the Lenders before foreclosure, taking possession or other
disposition of such Gaming Equipment.

BANK COMPLETION GUARANTY
 
   
        London Clubs, the Trust and Bazaar Holdings (collectively, the
"Guarantors") have entered into a guaranty of performance and completion (the
"Bank Completion Guaranty") in favor of each of the Administrative Agent and the
Bank Lenders. The Bank Completion Guaranty provides that the Guarantors jointly
and severally guarantee to the Bank Lenders under the Bank Credit Facility,

                          CERTAIN MATERIAL AGREEMENTS
 
    The following discussion summarizes the material terms of certain material
agreements which have been entered into or are currently being negotiated
between the Company (and/or the Controlling Stockholders) and various other
parties. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the full agreements described herein once finalized and
executed. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Prospectus
shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the agreement being described
(unless otherwise indicated).
 
                     AGREEMENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE ALADDIN
 
HOLDINGS OPERATING AGREEMENT
 
    The Holdings Members have entered into an operating agreement (the "Holdings
Operating Agreement") setting forth their agreement as to the relationships
between Holdings and the Holdings Members and among the Holdings Members
themselves and as to the conduct of the business and internal affairs of
Holdings. The following is a summary of certain key provisions of the Holdings
Operating Agreement.
 
    PURPOSE.  Holdings was organized for the purposes of developing,
constructing, financing, owning and operating hotels and casinos and related
businesses and to engage in such other lawful enterprises as may be incidental
or appurtenant thereto.
 
    CLASSES OF INTERESTS.  Holdings is capitalized with three classes of shares
(which represent units of membership interests in Holdings): Common Shares (the
"Holdings Common Membership Interests"), Series A Preferred Shares (the
"Holdings Series A Preferred Interests") and Series B Preferred Shares (the
"Holdings Series B Preferred Interests" and together with the Holdings Common
Membership Interests and the Holdings Series A Preferred Interests, the
"Holdings Interests"). Holdings' authorized capital stock consists of 10,000,000
Holdings Common Membership Interests, 1,500,000 Holdings Series A Preferred
Interests and 1,500,000 Holdings Series B Preferred Interests.
 
    Holdings will periodically distribute cash, to the extent available, to the
holders of Holdings Common Membership Interests (or, if any such holder is a
pass-through entity, its equity interest holders) to the extent of the increase
in their cumulative United States federal, state or local income tax liability
in respect of their interests in Holdings for such period and make any
additional distributions of cash to Holdings Members that may be necessary to
cover United States federal, state or local income taxes arising from the
ownership of an interest in Holdings. No other distributions shall be made to
any Holdings Interests until all distributions to cover tax liability in respect
of any Holdings Interests for such period have been made.
 
    The Holdings Series A Preferred Interests will be issued to LCNI or Sommer
Enterprises in consideration for any payment required pursuant to the Bank
Completion Guaranty, the Noteholder Completion Guaranty or the Keep-Well
Agreement (or a payment to the Company to cover any EBITDA shortfall under the
Bank Credit Facility) which is made by Sommer Enterprises, LCNI or their
respective affiliates to the Company where such payment is not required to be
made to pay down the Company's bank debt pursuant to Section 13 of the Keep-Well
Agreement. Except for distributions to cover any tax liability in respect of any
Holdings Interests, the Holdings Series A Preferred Interests will have a
distribution, redemption and liquidation preference over all Holdings Common
Membership Interests and Holdings Series B Preferred Interests. To the extent of
any net profits left to be allocated after special allocations, the capital
account in respect of the Holdings Series A Preferred Interests will cumulate
and compound semi-annually at the rate of 12% per annum on the capital account
balance in respect thereof at the time of compounding and, subject to the
limitations on Restricted Payments set forth in the Indenture, will be paid when
a supermajority of the Holdings Board determines that there is sufficient cash
available to do so. Holdings Series A Preferred Interests will be automatically
redeemed when distributions have been made to the extent of the capital account
balance in respect thereof. Should Holdings liquidate at any time prior to the
redemption of the Holdings Series A Preferred Interests, the Holdings Series A
Preferred
 
                                      155
<PAGE>
Interests will be entitled to a distribution of cash, to the extent available,
before any distributions are made to the Holdings Series B Preferred Interests
or Holdings Common Membership Interests, in an amount equal to the capital
account of the Holdings Series A Preferred Interests.
 
    The Holdings Series B Preferred Interests will be issued to LCNI in the
event of and in exchange for a payment required by London Clubs to pay down the
Company's bank debt pursuant to Section 13 of the Keep-Well Agreement. Except
for distributions to cover any tax liability in respect of any Holdings
Interests, the Holdings Series B Preferred Interests will have a distribution,
redemption and liquidation preference over all Holdings Common Membership
Interests. To the extent of any net profits left to be allocated after special
allocations and allocations to Holdings Series A Preferred Interests, the
capital account in respect of Holdings Series B Preferred Interests will
cumulate and compound quarterly at a rate equal to the rate on the bank debt of
the Company which was paid down by the payment required pursuant to the
Keep-Well Agreement, such rate to be applied to the capital account balance in
respect of the Holdings Series B Preferred Interests at the time of compounding
and, subject to the limitations on Restricted Payments set forth in the
Indenture, will be paid when a supermajority of the Holdings Board determines
that there is sufficient cash available to do so after all Holdings Series A
Preferred Interests have been redeemed. Holdings Series B Preferred Interests
will be automatically redeemed when distributions have been made to the extent
of the capital account balance in respect thereof. Should Holdings liquidate at
any time prior to the redemption of the Holdings Series B Preferred Interests,
the Holdings Series B Preferred Interests will be entitled to a distribution of
cash, to the extent available, before any distributions are made to the Holdings
Common Membership Interests, in an amount equal to the capital account of the
Holdings Series B Preferred Interests.
 
    Other than distributions to cover any tax liability in respect of any
Holdings Interests, the Holdings Common Membership Interests will be entitled to
distributions only after all discretionary and mandatory distributions have been
made to all other interests in Holdings.
 
    The Indenture contains restrictions on the payment of distributions to the
Holdings Interests.
 
    Distributions to all Holdings Interests are payable only out of the assets
of Holdings at the time of such distribution, and in no event shall any holder
of an interest in Holdings be obligated to make a contribution to Holdings for
the payment of distributions.
 
    Except for matters affecting rights of the holders of Holdings Series A
Preferred Interests and Holdings Series B Preferred Interests to distributions,
including upon redemption, (which may not be diminished or affected without the
vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the issued and outstanding shares
of the affected class) and matters affecting the anti-dilution protections,
rights to move their investment directly into Holdings in certain circumstances
and tag-along participation rights of the holders of the Warrants and the
Warrant Shares (which may not be amended without the consent of Enterprises),
all management and voting rights are vested in the Holdings Common Membership
Interests.
 
    ADJUSTMENTS IN INTERESTS.  Subject to the receipt of applicable Gaming
Approvals, the percentages of the Holdings Common Membership Interests held
directly by each Holdings Member (each, a "Holdings Percentage Interest") will
be adjusted by the issuance of additional Holdings Common Membership Interests
and/or cancellation of issued and outstanding Holdings Common Membership
Interests in the following circumstances:
 
        (i) on the opening date of the Aladdin (the "Opening Date") LCNI's
    Holdings Percentage Interest shall be decreased by 0.5% and Sommer
    Enterprises' Holdings Percentage Interest shall be increased by 0.5%;
 
        (ii) in the event of defaults in payment of a Holdings Member's or its
    Affiliates' share of payments required pursuant to the Keep-Well Agreement
    (or payments to the Company to cover any EBITDA shortfall under the Bank
    Credit Facility), the defaulting Holdings Member's Holdings Percentage
    Interest shall be reduced and the non-defaulting Holdings Member's Holdings
    Percentage
 
                                      156
<PAGE>
    Interest shall be increased by 1, 1.5 or 2 times (depending on whether the
    defaulting Holdings Member is in default for 30 days, 45 days or 60 days
    from the date of such default) multiplied by a dilution fraction, the
    numerator of which is the delinquent contribution and the denominator of
    which is $200 million;
 
        (iii) upon the exercise of any Warrants, the relative Holdings
    Percentage Interests of all Holdings Members other than LCNI and Enterprises
    will be adjusted so that all such Holdings Members share proportionately the
    dilutive effect of such exercise on their directly and indirectly held
    Holdings Percentage Interests (unvested Holdings Common Membership Interests
    will also be adjusted thereupon);
 
        (iv) upon any adjustment of Enterprises' Holdings Percentage Interest
    pursuant to the Warrant Agreement (which may occur in the event of:
    dividends or distributions by Holdings; subdivisions or combinations of
    Holdings Common Membership Interests; issuance of Holdings Common Membership
    Interests or any rights to purchase Holdings Common Membership Interests for
    less than fair value; and similar events that typically trigger
    anti-dilution protection adjustments for holders of warrants), the Holdings
    Percentage Interest of the Holdings Members other than Enterprises will be
    correspondingly adjusted to accommodate such adjustment in Enterprises'
    Holdings Percentage Interest, so that all such Holdings Members share
    proportionately the effect of such adjustment on their directly and
    indirectly held Holdings Percentage Interest (unless such Holdings Members
    agree to some other arrangement for sharing such effect); and
 
        (v) upon the vesting of any Restricted Membership Interests, the
    Percentage Interests of LCNI and Sommer Enterprises shall be reduced so that
    LCNI bears 25% of the dilutive effect thereof (assuming that no adjustements
    of the type described in (iii) above have occurred) and Sommer Enterprises
    bears all of the remaining dilutive effect thereof, and their capital
    accounts shall be correspondingly reduced to accommodate the capital account
    of the new member.
 
    In certain circumstances provided in the Equity Participation Agreement, the
holders of Warrants and Warrant Shares will have the right to move their
investment directly into Holdings, in which event the Percentage Interest of
Enterprises will be reduced to accommodate such interests.
 
    SPECIAL CAPITAL ACCOUNT ADJUSTMENT.  Upon the redemption of any Notes by
Holdings, upon receipt of applicable Gaming Approvals, Sommer Enterprises'
capital account in Holdings in respect of its Holdings Common Membership
Interests will be reduced by the product of LCNI's Holdings Percentage Interest
at the time of such redemption multiplied by the Accreted Value on the Issue
Date of the Notes being redeemed and LCNI's capital account shall be increased
by the same amount.
 
    SUPERMAJORITY APPROVALS.  The following actions by Holdings or the Company
will require approval of the holders of at least 80% of the Holdings Common
Membership Interests:
 
        (i) the admission of a new Holdings Member, the acceptance of any
    capital contributions not provided for in the Holdings Operating Agreement,
    the Bank Completion Guaranty, the Noteholder Completion Guaranty, the
    Keep-Well Agreement or the Contribution Agreement (as defined in the
    Holdings Operating Agreement), or the issuance of additional shares or
    securities of Holdings convertible into or exchangeable for shares or the
    granting of any options or other rights to acquire from Holdings, or other
    obligation of Holdings to issue, any shares or securities convertible into
    or exchangeable for shares (other than in respect of the matters referred to
    in item (xvi), below); (ii) other than distributions by subsidiaries of
    Holdings or Priority Distributions to Holdings Common Membership Interests
    or distributions to cover any tax liability in respect of any Holdings
    Interests, any declaration, setting aside or payment of any distribution;
    (iii) any voluntary dissolution or liquidation of Holdings or the Company or
    the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Holdings and the
    Company; (iv) any merger or consolidation of Holdings with any person; (v)
    any amendment to the articles of Holdings or the Holdings Operating
    Agreement; (vi) (A) during the period that the
 
                                      157
<PAGE>
    Keep-Well Agreement is in force, the creation, incurrence, assumption or
    guarantee of any indebtedness (excluding obligations under leases made in
    the ordinary course of business) and (B) after the Keep-Well Agreement is no
    longer in force, the creation, incurrence, assumption or guarantee of any
    indebtedness (excluding obligations under leases made in the ordinary course
    of business) in excess of $10 million in any individual transaction (such
    threshold limit to be increased at the end of each fiscal year by an amount
    determined by the Holdings Board to correspond to increases in consumer
    prices in the United States for such fiscal year); (vii) the creation of any
    lien, pledge or other security interest in assets of Holdings or any
    subsidiary of Holdings securing indebtedness of any third party which is not
    for the benefit of any business carried on by Holdings or the Company;
    (viii) the commencement of a voluntary case under Title 11 of the United
    States Code entitled "Bankruptcy" (the "Bankruptcy Code") or any other
    voluntary proceeding under any debtor relief laws or any voluntary general
    assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ix) any material transactions
    (other than transactions provided for in Sections 6.7(a) or 6.9 of the
    London Clubs Purchase Agreement) between Holdings or the Company, on the one
    hand, and any Holdings Member or any affiliate of any Holdings Member, on
    the other hand; (x) any entry into any new business opportunity unrelated to
    the Aladdin; (xi) the appointment or removal of Holdings' independent
    auditors; (xii) any material amendment to, or any material waiver under, the
    Bazaar Lease (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); (xiii) any
    material amendment to, or any material waiver under, the Reciprocal Easement
    Agreement (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); (xiv) any
    arrangement or agreement for Holdings to pay a salary to any Holdings Member
    or any affiliate of any Holdings Member (other than pursuant to the
    Consulting and Employment Agreements and other than in respect of the
    matters referred to in (xvi), below); (xv) the employment of any member of
    an Executive Management Committee (as defined herein) of Holdings or the
    Company or any material amendment to the terms of employment of any such
    person; (xvi) the adoption of, or any material amendment to, any employee
    benefit, profit sharing, incentive, bonus, pension, retirement or employee
    stock option plans (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld in the
    context of industry practice); (xvii) any license of the Aladdin trademark
    to any person other than a subsidiary of Holdings or in connection with the
    Complex and the operations in respect thereof (such consent not to be
    unreasonably withheld); (xviii) any contract (including leases) outside the
    ordinary course of business or for capital expenditure not included in
    Holdings' annual budgets (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); and
    (xix) the initiation or settlement of any material litigation outside the
    ordinary course of business and the selection of counsel therefor (such
    consent not to be unreasonably withheld).
 
    Unless London Clubs has appointed a majority of the Holdings Board, the
above supermajority approval rights will cease in the event that London Clubs is
bankrupt or responsible for an event of default under the Keep-Well Agreement,
the Bank Completion Guaranty or the Noteholder Completion Guaranty.
 
    London Clubs will also have broad approval and consultation rights in
respect of material contracts and decisions relating to the Redevelopment (as
defined in the Holdings Operating Agreement), including (without limitation)
relating to certain aspects of the construction phase of the Aladdin, the Mall
Project and the Music Project.
 
    MANAGEMENT.  The business and affairs of Holdings are managed by the
Holdings Board, which holds Board meetings at least quarterly. Holdings' Board
consists of three nominees of Enterprises and two nominees of London Clubs, each
of which shall serve for a 3 year term unless they resign, are removed or are
otherwise disqualified to serve at an earlier time. The members of the Holdings
Board (the "Holdings Board Members") are Jack Sommer, Ronald B. Dictrow and
Richard J. Goeglein as appointees of Enterprises and Alan L. Goodenough and G.
Barry C. Hardy as appointees of London Clubs. Jack Sommer is Chairman of the
Holdings Board. A Holdings Board Member appointed by London Clubs and a Holdings
Board Member appointed by Enterprises will have the right to be on each
committee of the Board. The Holdings Board Members may be removed at any time by
their appointing Holdings Member.
 
                                      158
<PAGE>
In the event of a vacancy on the Holdings Board, the Holdings Member who
appointed the previous Holdings Board Member shall appoint the new Holdings
Board Member.
 
    In certain circumstances related to (i) a failure to make its share of
payments under the Bank Completion Guaranty and the Keep-Well Agreement, or (ii)
the requirement to make a certain level of payments under the Keep-Well
Agreement (other than payments caused by certain losses of the Salle Privee),
whether or not London Clubs and Sommer Enterprises each pay their share of such
payments, Sommer Enterprises shall cause Enterprises to change the composition
of Holdings' Board by the appointment of new Holdings Board Members designated
by the non-defaulting Holdings Member and/or the removal of Holdings Board
Members appointed by the defaulting Holdings Member and/or the appointment of a
new independent Board Member designated by the non-defaulting Holdings Member.
If a Holdings Member holding a majority of Holdings Common Membership Interests
has defaulted in its payment obligations under the Keep-Well Agreement, the Bank
Completion Guaranty or the Noteholder Completion Guaranty, London Clubs and
Sommer Enterprises also will be required to vote all Holdings Common Membership
Interests owned or controlled by them so that they have equal voting power as
Holdings Members.
 
    The Holdings Members will agree to take all necessary action to ensure that
each Holdings Member shall have identical rights to those they have in respect
of Holdings with respect to the board of management (or comparable bodies) and
management of the Company.
 
    TRANSFERS OF SHARES.  Except for transfers pursuant to the Loan Documents,
transfers of Holdings Common Membership Interests are only permitted:
 
    (i) to affiliates of the transferring Holdings Member or persons approved by
all Holdings Members holding Holdings Common Membership Interests;
 
    (ii) to persons other than certain prohibited transferees after giving other
Holdings Members holding Holdings Common Membership Interests a right of first
refusal and the right to tag-along ratably; and
 
    (iii) in some circumstances related to estate planning by Holdings Members.
 
    Certain transfers in ownership interests in Holdings Members holding
Holdings Common Membership Interests and in any entity owning a majority of a
Holdings Member (other than London Clubs) holding Holdings Common Membership
Interests are also prohibited without first affording the other Holdings Members
holding Holdings Common Membership Interests a right of first refusal over such
Holdings Member's Holdings Common Membership Interests. The exercise and
transfer of Warrants or the transfer of Warrant Shares will not be restricted by
this provision.
 
    Holdings or its nominee have the right to call a Holdings Member's Holdings
Common Membership Interests (but not the Holdings Common Membership Interests
held by Enterprises) at seventy-five percent of the fair market value of such
Holdings Common Membership Interests if there is (i) a change in control of such
Holdings Member, other than a permitted transfer of an ownership interest in a
Holdings Member as described above or a change in control of London Clubs, (ii)
a transfer of Holdings Common Membership Interests by such Holdings Member in
breach of the Holdings Operating Agreement or (iii) a breach by such Holdings
Member of the non-compete covenants described below.
 
    INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING.  The Holdings Operating Agreement provides that the
Holdings Members anticipate executing an initial public offering ("IPO") as soon
as it is commercially reasonable to do so after the Opening Date. Sommer
Enterprises and LCNI have rights to demand an IPO if one has not occurred within
3 years of the Opening Date, although Sommer Enterprises may defer such a demand
by LCNI for up to a year. The members or stockholders of the IPO entity
immediately prior to the IPO will enter into a Stockholders and Registration
Rights Agreement substantially in the form scheduled to the Holdings Operating
Agreement providing for arrangements between such members or stockholders as to
certain management matters, transfer restrictions, tag along rights and
registration rights.
 
                                      159
<PAGE>
    If permitted by law and market requirements, LCNI and Sommer Enterprises
have rights to acquire additional Holdings Common Membership Interests (or their
equivalents in an IPO Entity) as part of or prior to an IPO at a price based on
the IPO price discounted to reflect the absence of underwriting fees and costs.
LCNI also has rights to effect purchases from Holdings or Sommer Enterprises to
maintain a Percentage Interest of 20% or more.
 
    LIABILITY, EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION.  The Holdings Operating
Agreement contains provisions relieving members, officers, employees and the
Holdings Board Members and those of Holdings' subsidiaries from certain
liability, fiduciary duties and conflicts and will also provide for various
indemnities to such persons, payment of expenses and provision of errors and
omissions insurance.
 
    GAMING MATTERS.  Admission of new Holdings Members, transfers of Holdings
Interests and payment of distributions by Holdings will be subject to receipt of
Nevada Gaming Approvals. Holdings Members and their affiliates, directors and
employees will cooperate to obtain applicable Gaming Approvals from the Nevada
Gaming Authorities, as necessary. If Nevada gaming problems arise prior to a
finding of unsuitability by the Nevada Gaming Authorities, a Holdings Member
causing such problem (or whose director, officer or affiliate caused such
problem) shall cooperate to remedy it, and, if not remedied, may be forced to
sell its Holdings Common Membership Interests to Holdings or its nominee at fair
market value.
 
    NON-COMPETE.  LCNI and Sommer Enterprises agree that they and their
affiliates will refrain from certain competitive activities (with appropriate
geographic and temporal limitations and exceptions for certain existing
activities of their affiliates), unless Holdings (without the participation of
the Holdings Member affected or its nominee Holdings Board Members) has first
refused to pursue such activities.
 
    TERM.  Holdings shall continue until December 1, 2097, or such other time as
agreed in writing by all Holdings Members. In the event of the death or
bankruptcy of a Holdings Member, Holdings and the other Holdings Members will
have certain rights to purchase such bankrupt or deceased member's Holdings
Common Membership Interests.
 
COMPANY OPERATING AGREEMENT
 
    Holdings and the Company have entered into an operating agreement (the
"Company Operating Agreement") which sets forth provisions governing the conduct
of the business and internal affairs of the Company. The following is a summary
of certain key provisions of the Company Operating Agreement.
 
    PURPOSE.  The Company was organized for the purposes of developing,
constructing, financing, owning and operating hotels and casinos and related
businesses and to engage in such other lawful enterprises as may be incidental
or appurtenant thereto.
 
    CLASSES OF INTERESTS.  The Company is capitalized with two classes of shares
(which represent units of membership interests in the Company): Common
Membership Interests and Series A Preferred Interests. The Company's authorized
capital stock will consist of 10,000,000 Common Membership Interests and
1,150,000 Series A Preferred Interests.
 
    The Series A Preferred Interests have a distribution, redemption and
liquidation preference over the Common Membership Interests. Beginning in the
sixth year after the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Interests,
periodic distributions of cash, to the extent available, will be made by the
Company first to the Series A Preferred Interests in an amount equal to the
interest payable on the Notes for such period and, prior to the end of the
twelfth year after the issuance of the Series A Preferred Interests, the Company
will distribute cash, to the extent available, in redemption of the Series A
Preferred Interests in an amount equal to their redemption preference. The
redemption preference of the Series A Preferred Interests will accrete so that
such preference will, at all times, equal the Accreted Value of the Notes (plus
any premium payable to the holders of the Notes). In addition, should the
Company liquidate at any time prior to the redemption of the Series A Preferred
Interests or should all or any part of the Series A
 
                                      160
<PAGE>
Preferred Interests be redeemed prior to the end of the twelfth year after their
issuance as a result of the Change of Control Payment, the Series A Preferred
Interests shall be entitled to a distribution of cash, to the extent available,
before any distributions are made to any other classes of Interests, in an
amount equal to their liquidation preference which will accrete so that such
preference at all times equals the Accreted Value of the Notes (plus any premium
payable to the holders of the Notes) at such time.
 
    After all discretionary or required distributions of cash are made to the
Series A Preferred Interests for any period, the Company will distribute cash,
to the extent available, to the holders of Common Membership Interests to the
extent of the increase in the cumulative United States federal, state or local
income tax liability of such holders of Common Membership Interests (or, if any
such holder is a pass-through entity, its equity interest holders) in respect of
their interests in the Company for such period and make any additional
distributions of cash to Members that may be necessary to cover United States
federal, state or local income taxes arising from ownership of an interest in
the Company ("Company Tax Distributions").
 
    After distributions to the Series A Preferred Interests and Company Tax
Distributions, the Board will make a priority distribution of cash, to the
extent available, on the Common Membership Interests to permit Holdings to
satisfy any additional obligations it may have to make payments on the Notes
("Priority Distributions to Common Interests").
 
    MANAGEMENT.  The business and affairs of the Company are managed by the
Company's Board. Pursuant to the Holdings Operating Agreement, the Holdings
Members have identical rights with respect to the Company's Board and management
as they have in respect of the Holdings Board and management.
 
    The Company's Board is responsible for establishing and overseeing all
policies and procedures in connection with the operation of the Company's
business, but shall delegate day-to-day management responsibility to an
executive management committee (the "Executive Management Committee"). The
Executive Management Committee includes the following persons: the President and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company, the Senior Vice President of the Company who is the President and Chief
Operating Officer of the Aladdin, the Senior Vice President of the Company who
is the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Music Project hotel and
casino, the Senior Vice President Human Resources of the Company, the Senior
Vice President Electronic Gaming of the Company and the Managing Director of the
Salle Privee.
 
    LIABILITY, EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION.  The Company Operating Agreement
contains provisions relieving members, officers, employees and the members of
the Company's Board ("Company Board Members") and those of the Company's
subsidiaries from certain liability, fiduciary duties and conflicts and will
also provide for various indemnities to such persons, payment of expenses and
provision of errors and omissions insurance.
 
    TERM.  The Company shall continue until January 24, 2097, or such other time
as agreed in writing by all Company Members.
 
EQUITY PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT
 
    Sommer Enterprises, LCNI, Enterprises and the Warrant Agent, for and on
behalf of the holders of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares, have entered into
an agreement (the "Equity Participation Agreement") under which (a) the parties
agreed that they will not effect a public offering of common stock of any IPO
Entity unless LCNI, Sommer Enterprises and the holders of the Warrants and
Warrant Shares each are given the right to hold their respective equity
interests in the IPO Entity; (b) Enterprises agreed that prior to any such
public offering (or if Enterprises is the IPO Entity, at all times), it will not
become an "investment company" (as that term is defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended) required to register under that Act, (c) the
parties granted the holders of the Warrant Shares certain rights to participate
in the tag along arrangements under the Holdings Operating Agreement and agree
to effect
 
                                      161
<PAGE>
certain adjustments to the percentage ownership of Holdings Common Membership
Interests and certain redemptions of Warrant Shares to give effect to such tag
along rights, as described below and, (d) the Warrant holders will have the
right to convert their Warrant Shares into Common Membership Interests in the
Company in the event that Enterprises takes certain actions, including certain
mergers or consolidations, disposition of all of or substantially all of
Enterprises' assets, transfers of Enterprises' Holdings Common Membership
Interests, certain recapitalizations of Enterprises, voluntary dissolution or
liquidation of Enterprises, repurchases of Enterprises' stock which are not
pro-rata among the stockholders, and certain issuances of Enterprises stock.
 
    Pursuant to the Equity Participation Agreement, holders of Warrant Shares
are entitled to cause Enterprises to partially exercise its rights to
participate in certain sales by Holdings Members of Holdings Common Membership
Interests to a non-affiliated party. The proceeds of any such sale of Holdings
Common Membership Interests by Enterprises will be used to redeem the Common
Stock in Enterprises of such holders who elected to exercise such rights.
 
    Certain sales of Holdings Common Membership Interests could constitute a
change of control under the Indenture. In that event, Holdings would be required
to redeem the Notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of their Accreted Value.
See "Description of the Notes--Repurchase at the Option of Holders-- Change of
Control."
 
SALLE PRIVEE MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
 
    The Company, London Clubs and a subsidiary of London Clubs, LCNI, are
parties to the Salle Privee Management Agreement in respect of the Salle Privee.
Under such agreement, LCNI will (a) provide advice and consulting services
regarding the development and fitting out of the Salle Privee, (b) provide
certain worldwide marketing and promotional services in relation to the Salle
Privee and (c) direct the operations of the Salle Privee in accordance with
certain policies and procedures developed by LCNI in consultation with the
Company, and in accordance with the Company's budgets and marketing plans. Under
such agreement, London Clubs has agreed to guaranty the obligations of LCNI.
 
    OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT.  Under the Salle Privee Management Agreement,
LCNI will direct the operations of the Salle Privee in consultation with the
Executive Management Committee of the Company. LCNI will also provide worldwide
marketing and promotional services targeted at its international clientele,
including a plan for cross-marketing the Salle Privee with London Clubs' and its
affiliates' other gaming facilities throughout the world.
 
    CREDIT MANAGEMENT/GAMING LIMITS.  The Salle Privee will be subject to the
Company's financial control facilities and credit management will be
administered by the Company's central credit oversight committee, in
consultation with LCNI. Basic risk management policies regarding gaming limits
and credit facilities for the Salle Privee will be established by the Company's
Board based upon the input and recommendations of LCNI. LCNI will have the right
to permit certain clientele from time to time to exceed the normal wagering
limits. In consideration for such flexibility, LCNI has agreed to reimburse the
Company for any net losses suffered by the Company in connection with such
above-limit wagering.
 
    LONDON CLUBS FEE.  In consideration for the services to be furnished by
London Clubs under the Salle Privee Management Agreement, the Company will pay
to London Clubs an Incentive Marketing and Consulting Fee calculated as follows:
(i) 10% of the Salle Privee EBITDA (defined in the Salle Privee Management
Agreement as gross revenues attributable to the Salle Privee, less all costs and
expenses directly attributable to the Salle Privee), up to and including $15.0
million in Salle Privee EBITDA; plus (ii) 12.5% of the Salle Privee EBITDA, in
excess of $15.0 million, up to and including $17.0 million; plus (iii) 25% of
the Salle Privee EBITDA, in excess of $17.0 million, up to and including $20.0
million; plus (iv) 50% of the Salle Privee EBITDA, in excess of $20.0 million.
The foregoing thresholds will be adjusted in accordance with consumer price
index changes every five years.
 
                                      162
<PAGE>
    TERM.  The term of the Salle Privee Management Agreement is sixty-nine (69)
years unless terminated earlier by either party after the other's default, in
connection with Nevada or United Kingdom gaming problems, by mutual agreement,
by a party upon London Clubs, LCNI's or the Company's bankruptcy or upon LCNI no
longer having an equity interest in Holdings.
 
LONDON CLUBS PURCHASE AGREEMENT
 
    Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement dated as of February
26, 1996 by and among London Clubs, LCNI, AHL, Sommer Enterprises, the Trust and
the Company (the "London Clubs Purchase Agreement") LCNI acquired 25.0% (subject
to adjustment pursuant to the Holdings Operating Agreement as described above)
of the Holdings Common Membership Interests for a purchase price of $50.0
million.
 
    The Music Project is expected to be developed and owned by Aladdin Music.
Pursuant to the London Clubs Purchase Agreement, London Clubs, through its
wholly owned subsidiary LCNI, has agreed that so long as Aladdin Music obtains
financing for the Music Project on terms satisfactory to LCNI, and provided that
certain other conditions are met, Aladdin Music may develop and own the Music
Project in accordance with the terms described herein. If such conditions are
not met, LCNI has the right to select the method in which it will participate in
the Music Project, if at all. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall Project
and the Music Project."
 
    Pursuant to the London Clubs Purchase Agreement, the Company has reimbursed
the Trust on the Issue Date $3 million for certain costs relating to the
development of the Aladdin incurred by the Trust during 1996 and 1997 and has
agreed to reimburse the Trust for out-of-pocket expenses of the Trust related to
the development of the Aladdin after the Issue Date not to exceed $900,000.
 
    In consideration for its obligations under the Keep-Well Agreement and
related arrangements, under the London Clubs Purchase Agreement, the parties
have agreed that London Clubs will receive (a) an initial fee of 1.0% of a
$265.0 million portion of the Company's bank debt which is supported and
enhanced by the Keep-Well Agreement (such fee to be payable on the closing date
of the Bank Credit Facility), and (b) an annual fee of 1.5%, payable in arrears,
of the Company's annual average indebtedness with respect to a $265.0 million
portion of the Company's bank debt which is supported and enhanced by the
Keep-Well Agreement for each relevant twelve month period ending on an
anniversary of the Closing Date, which amount shall reflect the extent, if any,
by which the obligations under the Keep-Well Agreement are reduced or eliminated
over time (such fees shall accrue from the closing date of the Bank Credit
Facility and shall be paid from available proceeds after the opening date of the
Aladdin).
 
DESIGN/BUILD CONTRACT
 
    OVERVIEW.  The Company and the Design/Builder have entered into the
Design/Build Contract for the design and construction of the Aladdin, the strip
facade and related retail space of the Mall Project (the "Work") for a
guaranteed maximum price ("GMP"). The GMP is guaranteed by the Design/Builder to
be a maximum of $267.0 million. The GMP includes the Design/Builder's Fee (as
defined in the Design/Build Contract), the cost of the Design/Builder's
Controlled Insurance Program ("CIP") and the Design/ Builder's costs necessarily
incurred by Design/Builder in the proper performance of its design/build
obligations under the Design/Build Contract (such costs collectively, the
"Costs"). The Design/Builder's Fee shall be the lesser of (a) the lump sum fixed
amount of $13.6 million and (b) 6.5% of the aggregate of all trade subcontracts
plus the price of any trade work performed by the Design/Builder. The Design/
Builder's General Conditions Costs shall not exceed the total sum of $22.0
million. Any costs incurred in excess of $22.0 million are nonreimbursable and
will be paid by the Design/Builder. The Costs shall not be higher than prices
and rates approved in advance by the Company, unless the Design/Builder has
received the Company's prior written consent to incur premium expenses. The
Costs include only: (i) labor costs for the Design/Builder in connection with
the Work; (ii) trade subcontract costs; (iii) costs of materials and
 
                                      163
<PAGE>
equipment incorporated in the completed construction; (iv) costs of other
materials and equipment, temporary facilities and related items; (v)
miscellaneous costs, such as premiums for insurance not covered by the CIP, but
required by the Design/Build Contract, sales, use or similar taxes, fees and
assessments associated with permits, licenses and inspections that are the
responsibility of the Design/Builder; (vi) other costs incurred in the
performance of the Work and to the extent approved in advance in writing by the
Company; and (vii) costs associated with emergency repairs to damaged, defective
or nonconforming Work.
 
    As an incentive to control costs, the Company has agreed to pay the
Design/Builder 60% of the aggregate net savings made by the Design/Builder in
incurring costs below the trade budget of $230.0 million with respect to labor,
equipment and materials from the various subcontractors and vendors performing
work under the Design/Build Contract. The Design/Builder will be liable for any
costs exceeding the GMP, unless the Company changes the scope of the Work. If
the Company requests certain changes to the scope of the Work, then pursuant to
the Bank Completion Guaranty, the Trust, Bazaar Holdings and London Clubs have
jointly and severally agreed, whenever there is a construction cost increase
caused by any such change, and subject to certain qualifications, to contribute
cash to the Company to fund such increases.
 
    COMPENSATION FOR EARLY/LATE COMPLETION.  In lieu of the Company procuring,
at the Design/Builder's cost, a liquidated damages insurance policy or a
business interruption insurance policy to compensate the Company for late
completion of the Work, the Company has paid the Design/Builder $2.0 million as
a bonus advance (the "Bonus Advance"). The Design/Builder may use the Bonus
Advance to buy liquidated damages insurance or it may choose to self-insure. In
either event, the Design/Builder can keep the Bonus Advance if the Project is
finished on or before the date set for Substantial Completion. The Substantial
Completion Date (as defined in the Design/Build Contract) is 790 calendar days
from either January 12, 1998 or the date notice to proceed is received from the
Company, whichever is later. Said period is referred to in the Design/Build
Contract as the "Contract Time" and may only be adjusted in accordance with the
Design/Build Contract. As a further bonus, the Design/Builder shall be entitled
to receive $100,000 for each day, up to but not to exceed 90 days, that the Work
is substantially completed in advance of the date of Substantial Completion.
 
    If the Design/Builder fails to achieve Substantial Completion of the Work
within the Contract Time, the Design/Builder must pay back the $2.0 million
Bonus Advance to the Company. Furthermore, the Design/Builder must pay the
Company, as liquidated damages, $100,000 per day starting on the first day after
the Substantial Completion date and continuing up to, but not exceeding, 90 days
thereafter.
 
    PAYMENT.  The Design/Builder must make an itemized application for payment,
on or about the 25th day of each month, based on an approved schedule of values
certified by the Design/Builder and ADP and supported by such data to
substantiate the Design/Builder's right to payment. Simultaneously with each
payment the Design/Builder must and must cause all subcontractors and vendors to
waive their mechanics lien rights for the labor, equipment and materials covered
by the payments made to the Design/Builder. The Design/Builder agrees to pay
when due all bills for labor, materials, equipment or services connected with
the Work. If a person or entity who provided any service, labor, equipment or
materials to the Design/ Builder in connection with the Complex files a lien
against the Company's property, the Design/Builder shall promptly bond the lien
with a legally sufficient undertaking. The Company may also deduct the amount of
the lien from any payments due to the Design/Builder until such lien is bonded
or otherwise discharged. The Company is entitled to retain 10% of all monies due
to the Design/Builder under the monthly applications for payment (excluding the
Design/Builder's fee and General Conditions) until the Work is 50% complete. The
Design/Builder may, at its sole cost and expense, substitute an irrevocable
letter of credit for any retainage held by the Company or on the Company's
behalf.
 
    WARRANTIES AND GUARANTEES.  The Design/Builder's construction warranties
and/or guarantees extend for one year after the Substantial Completion date. The
Design/Builder guarantees that its construction
 
                                      164
<PAGE>
workmanship shall conform to good construction practices applicable to projects
of this type and that the Work shall comply with the Design/Build Contract
requirements, all applicable laws, codes and regulations. The Design/Builder
also guarantees that all materials, equipment and supplies incorporated into the
Work will be new, of the best quality of the kind specified in accordance with
industry standards, and shall be fit for its intended purpose. Furthermore, the
Design/Builder warrants that: (i) the Design/Builder and its subcontractors are
experienced, qualified and, where required by law, licensed to perform their
respective portions of the Work; and (ii) the design of the Work will be in
accordance with all agreed upon requirements, and all applicable federal, state
and local codes, rules, ordinances and regulations. The Design/Builder agrees to
prosecute the enforcement of all subcontractor and vendor warranties at its sole
costs and expense during the one year period after the Substantial Completion
Date. The Design/Builder shall assign to the Company all subcontractor or vendor
warranties and/or guarantees still surviving and in effect more than one year
after the Substantial Completion Date. The Design/Builder's warranties and/or
guarantees exclude damages or defects caused by modifications to the Work
directed by the Company and not performed by the Design/Builder or its
subcontractors, if the modifications to the Work were performed without the
knowledge and written consent of the Design/Builder. The Design/Builder's
warranty shall not apply to damages or defects caused by ordinary wear and tear,
insufficient maintenance, improper operation or improper use by the Company.
 
    INSURANCE.  The Company and the Design/Builder have elected to implement the
CIP whereby the Company shall pay the Design/Builder for all associated premiums
to provide the following insurances: General Liability, Workers' Compensation,
Excess Liability, Contractual Liability and All Risk Builder's Risk for the
Company, the Design/Builder and all subcontractors of every tier. The
Design/Builder agreed that, where necessary or requested, each policy it
procures will identify the Company as either a Named Insured or an Additional
Insured and must contain full waivers of subrogation. The following is a
synopsis of the coverage for each of the required policies:
 
- -  WORKERS' COMPENSATION. The Workers' Compensation policy covers liability
    imposed by the workers' compensation and/or occupational disease statute of
    the State of Nevada and any other state or governmental authority having
    jurisdiction or related to the Work being performed. Employers' liability is
    limited to $1.0 million bodily injury per accident per employee, $1.0
    million bodily injury per disease per employee and $1.0 million policy limit
    by disease. The extensions of coverage include other states, voluntary
    compensation and employer's liability coverage, 60 day notice of
    cancellation except 10 days for non-payment, Borrower/Servant coverage as
    necessary, designated work place endorsement, alternate employer endorsement
    and amendment of Notice of Occurrence.
 
- -  COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY INSURANCE. Commercial General Liability
    Insurance shall be provided with a combined single limit for bodily injury
    and property damage of not less than $2.0 million per occurrence with a $2.0
    million annual aggregate. Coverage includes, but is not limited to, personal
    injury liability, blanket contractual liability covering contractual
    liability assumed under the Design/ Build Contract, employees included as
    additional insureds, broad form property damage liability, cross liability,
    incidental medical malpractice coverage, excavation, collapse and
    underground hazard. Extensions of coverage includes blanket waiver of
    subrogation, fellow employee amendment-supervisor and above, unintentional
    errors and omissions, stop gap liability for monopolistic fund states,
    cancellation and non-renewal-60 days, except 10 days for non-payment,
    amendment of notice of occurrence, contingent loading and unloading of
    vehicles-excess, limitation of coverage to designated premises of project
    and absolute asbestos exclusion.
 
- -  EXCESS INSURANCE. Design/Builder shall provide excess insurance on a
    following form basis with limits for bodily injury and property damage of
    not less than $100.0 million per occurrence and annual aggregate. This
    insurance policy or policies will contain three years extended coverage on
    products and completed operations after that portion of the Complex is put
    to its intended use or a notice of final completion of the Work has been
    issued by the Company, whichever occurs last.
 
                                      165
<PAGE>
- -  RISK OF LOSS. The Design/Builder shall insure for all risk of loss to
    property of the Company, the Design/Builder or any subcontractor on a
    "completed value basis." The Design/Builder's risk of loss under the
    Design/Build Contract is limited to all work in place, and all materials and
    equipment not in place but stored on or off the work site and intended for
    permanent use therein. Furthermore, the Design/Builder agrees to insure or
    self-insure all inland or ocean transit damage losses (in excess of carrier
    liability) to the property of the Company and to the property purchased for
    the account of the Company for incorporation in the Work.
 
    ADDITIONAL INSURANCE.  Additionally, the Design/Builder has agreed to
procure and maintain the following, which is not included in the CIP: (i)
Automobile Liability Insurance, with limits of not less than $1.0 million
combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage; (ii) "all risk"
coverage the Design/Builder may deem necessary for protection against loss of
owned or rented capital equipment and tools, including any tools owned by
mechanics, and any tools, equipment, scaffolding, staging, towers and forms
owned or rented by it or its subcontractors; (iii) "Off-Site Work," including
Workers' Compensation and Commercial General Liability Insurance; (iv) umbrella
liability in excess of Employer's Liability, General Liability and Automobile
Liability (no more restrictive than the underlying insurance) with limits of
$5.0 million; and (v) a project-specific insurance policy for errors and
omissions in the amount of $5.0 million from ADP. The policy referred to in (v)
is subject to the Company's review and approval and covers all aspects of the
design of those parts of the Complex covered by the Work.
 
    TERMINATION OF CIP.  In the event of non-enrollment or termination of the
CIP, the Design/Builder and/or its subcontractors agree to provide, pay for, and
maintain in effect the following types of coverage with insurance companies
satisfactory to the Company: Commercial General Liability Insurance, Workers'
Compensation, Automobile Liability Insurance, Tools and Equipment Floater
Policy, Insurance for "Off-Site Work," and Umbrella Liability. For all of these
policies the Design/Builder must obtain a waiver of subrogation against the
Company and all other named insureds and their agents and employees.
 
    INDEMNIFICATION.  The Design/Builder agrees and will cause each of its
subcontractors and vendors to agree in writing to defend, indemnify and hold
harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law the Company from and against all
liability incurred by the Company in the defense, settlement or satisfaction of
any claim of third parties which arise or are alleged to arise out of any
negligence, act or omission by the Design/Builder, subcontractor, or vendor or
their employees or agents or which arise or are alleged to arise from the
performance of the Work or any warranty and/or guarantee work pursuant to the
Design/Build Contract or any subcontract or purchase order with any
subcontractor or vendor. Neither the Design/ Builder nor any of its
subcontractors or vendors agree to indemnify the Company to the extent harm
results from the Company's gross negligence or willful misconduct, or where
indemnity is precluded pursuant to the applicable provisions of the laws of the
State of Nevada.
 
    FORCE MAJEURE.  Any delays in or failure of performance by either the
Company or the Design/Builder arising from a "Force Majeure" occurrence, which
includes, but is not limited to, labor disputes, civil disturbances, riots,
fire, weather which is both severe and unusual, governmental actions, acts of
war, or acts of God, shall not constitute a default under the Design/Build
Contract. A Force Majeure occurrence shall not constitute a waiver of either
party's obligations under the Design/Build Contract; however, time adjustments
shall be made to the Contract Time.
 
    CANCELLATION OF DESIGN/BUILD CONTRACT.  The Design/Build Contract may be
canceled for convenience by the Company in whole or in part, at any time, and
due to any circumstances by written notice. After such cancellation, the
Design/Builder shall do only such work as may be necessary to preserve and
protect the Work already in progress. The Design/Builder shall make every
reasonable effort to process cancellation, upon terms least costly to the
Company, of all existing orders to vendors and subcontractors. Upon such
cancellation, the Design/Builder agrees to waive any claims for delays,
acceleration, disruptions, or consequential damages, direct or indirect,
including, but not limited to, loss of anticipated income or profits and
unabsorbed or unrealized overhead for home office or field office on account
thereof, and
 
                                      166
<PAGE>
agrees that the sole remedy is to receive payment of: (i) the contract sum
earned for work completed and accepted, equivalent to the portion of the Work
partially completed, based on the percentage of the Work performed using the
approved schedule of values for the Design/Builder's monthly payment
requisition, (ii) the actual reasonable cost incurred by the Design/Builder in
securing and protecting the Work in progress against loss, damage or
deterioration, (iii) reasonable demobilization costs, (iv) standby costs, (v)
reasonable cancellation or deferment charges of suppliers, (vi) the actual cost
to the Design/Builder of materials, and equipment in possession of the Company
not sold or disposed of, and left at the Project Site, (vii) all actual costs
associated with relocation of key personnel, who were specially transferred by
the Design/Builder to Las Vegas specifically for the Work, and (viii) other
special reasonable costs and fees for terminating or suspending the Work,
preserving the Work accomplished, and turning such Work product over to the
Company.
 
    CLAIMS AND DISPUTES.  All claims arising under the Design/Build Contract
shall be directed by the Design/Builder in the first instance to the entity that
is the on-site representative of the Company promptly after the claim arises.
The decision of the Company's on-site representative may be appealed by notice
in writing directly to the Company. If the Company has not made a decision in
writing within 10 days thereafter, either party may invoke arbitration. Any
controversy, claim, or dispute arising out of or in connection with the
Design/Build Contract shall, upon the written request of either party, be
settled by arbitration in accordance with the Construction Industry Rules and
the Supplementary Procedures for Large, Complex Disputes of the American
Arbitration Association then in effect. The judgment of the award may be entered
in any court having jurisdiction thereof. All arbitration hearings shall be held
in Las Vegas, Nevada and will be administered by the Nevada Regional Office of
the American Arbitration Association.
 
FLUOR GUARANTY
 
    In lieu of performance and payment bonds, Fluor has entered into the Fluor
Guaranty. Fluor has made certain guarantees regarding the performance by the
Design/Builder of all the Design/Builder's obligations under the Design/Build
Contract. The Fluor Guaranty is absolute, irrevocable and continuing. If
Design/Builder fails to perform any of its obligations under the Design/Build
Contract, or commits any breach, Fluor shall immediately take such steps as may
be necessary to have the Design/Builder perform the Design/Builder's obligations
under the Design/Build Contract, or remedy any breach or take such steps as may
be necessary itself, or through a third party other than the Design/Builder, to
perform all of the Design/Builder's obligations under the Design/Build Contract,
or to remedy any breach. The Company is not required to proceed first or at all
against the Design/Builder or any other person before enforcing the terms of the
Fluor Guaranty.
 
ENERGY AGREEMENTS
 
    Pursuant to a development agreement (the "Development Agreement"), the
Energy Provider will design, engineer, procure and construct a facility (the
"Plant") capable of serving the Company's specified electricity requirements,
chilled water requirements and hot water requirements (collectively, the
"Services") of certain parts of the Complex. Pursuant to an energy services
agreement (the "ESA"), the Energy Provider will own and operate the Plant to
distribute the Services to the Aladdin and the Music Project for an initial
twenty year term. TrizecHahn will utilize the Plant for the provision of
electricity and cold water for the Mall Project.
 
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
 
    The Company has entered into a Development Agreement with the Energy
Provider, pursuant to which the Energy Provider will develop and construct the
Plant to serve the energy requirements of certain parts of the Complex. Once
developed and constructed in accordance with the Development Agreement, the
Plant will supply the Services to such parts of the Complex pursuant to the
Energy Service Agreement,
 
                                      167
<PAGE>
described below. The design and construction of the Plant will be at the sole
cost and expense of the Energy Provider; provided, however, the Energy Provider
shall not be responsible for costs in excess of $40 million unless agreed to by
the Energy Provider. Specifically, the Energy Provider will be responsible, at
its sole cost and expense, for, among other things: (i) designing, engineering,
procuring, constructing, start-up, and performance testing of the Plant; (ii)
compliance with applicable Laws and Government Approvals; (iii) safeguards for
the protection of the Plant; (iv) obtaining all necessary construction
materials, equipment and supplies; (v) providing all necessary labor and
personnel; (vi) developing and complying with a Quality Control and Inspection
Program; and (vii) completing the Plant in accordance with the schedule set
forth in the Development Agreement. As discussed below, payments to the Energy
Provider for the Capacity Charge (as defined herein) under the Energy Service
Agreement will be based, in part, on the costs incurred by the Energy Provider
for the design and construction of the Plant.
 
    The Energy Provider will appoint a Project Manager who will be responsible
for daily supervision of all activities relating to the design and construction
of the Plant. The Project Manager will serve as a single point of contact for
the Company with the Energy Provider. The Energy Provider also will develop a
Project Plan, which will be comprised of a schedule for the development and
construction of the Plant. The Project Plan will include a definition of the
work to be completed as well as a schedule of milestones and Critical Path
Activities. In consultation with the Company, the Energy Provider will prepare a
request for proposals for an Engineering, Procurement and Construction
Contractor ("EPC Contractor"), and will solicit bids from at least three
qualified contractors. From the bids that are received that are acceptable to
the Company, the Energy Provider will retain an EPC Contractor. The EPC
Contractor will provide a guaranteed maximum price for the design and
construction of the Plant. The Energy Provider and the EPC Contractor will then
prepare design development plans and specifications for the Plant. The Plant
will be constructed in accordance with such plans and specifications. The
Company has the right to inspect all of the work performed and to comment on all
aspects of the design and construction of the Plant.
 
    In the event the Energy Provider has failed to achieve Critical Path
Activities when and as set forth in the Project Plan, and the Company reasonably
and in good faith believes that such failure is reasonably likely to prevent the
Energy Provider from achieving Substantial Completion by the Substantial
Completion Deadline and Final Completion by the Final Completion Deadline, the
Company may so inform the Energy Provider. If the Energy Provider does not
improve performance to the Company's satisfaction, the Company may require an
increase in the Energy Provider's labor force, number of shifts, overtime
operations, days of work per week and/or equipment, all costs of which shall be
borne by the Energy Provider. The Energy Provider also will have a Contingency
Plan in place which provides for the rental by the Energy Provider of
transportable boiler and chiller plants to ensure delivery of hot water and
chilled water in accordance with the terms of the Energy Service Agreement in
the event completion of the Plant is delayed for any reason. Unless the delay is
due to a Force Majeure Event or the fault of the Company, the Contingency Plan
will be implemented at the Energy Provider's sole cost and expense.
 
    If the Energy Provider is in default of its obligations pursuant to the
Development Agreement and the Energy Provider either fails to cure such default
within ten days or fails to satisfy the Company that the default can be cured
within a time period reasonably satisfactory to the Company and promptly
commences and pursues remedial action, the Company may terminate the Development
Agreement. As explained below, Unicom, the Energy Provider's ultimate parent,
has guaranteed completion of the Plant in accordance with the Development
Agreement up to a maximum liability of $30.0 million. See "--Unicom Guaranty."
Upon the Company's termination of the Development Agreement, Unicom Corporation
either will complete the Plant in accordance with the terms of the Development
Agreement or will pay up to $30.0 million to have the Plant so completed.
 
    In the event the performance of the Company or the Energy Provider is
delayed or prevented due to a Force Majeure Event (as defined in the Energy
Service Agreement) and such delay or prevention could not reasonably be avoided
or mitigated, the party claiming such delay or prevention will be excused from
performing its obligations under the Development Agreement for the period of
delay or interruption
 
                                      168
<PAGE>
caused by the Force Majeure Event. Within 72 hours after a party does become or
should become aware of a Force Majeure Event, such party will notify the other.
Within seven days of such notice, the party claiming the Force Majeure Event
will deliver a notice to the other describing the anticipated impact of the
Force Majeure Event and within 10 days of the end of the Force Majeure Event
will provide a notice of extension of its obligations. If the parties disagree
as to the latter notice and are unable to resolve their dispute, the dispute
will be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of the
Development Agreement, described below.
 
    The Company will not be responsible for the Work or for the Energy
Provider's failure to perform the Work in accordance with the terms of the
Development Agreement. Nor will the Company be responsible for the acts or
omissions of the Energy Provider or its agents, contractors or employees. The
Company assumes no responsibility for injury or claims resulting from failure of
the Work to comply with applicable Laws or Government Approvals or from Defects
or Deficiencies.
 
    The Company and the Energy Provider agree to cooperate and to communicate
with each other concerning the terms of the Development Agreement and other
matters relating to the Plant. If a dispute arises between the Company and the
Energy Provider, the parties jointly may request that the dispute be resolved by
arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the Commercial Arbitration
Rules of the American Arbitration Association. If the parties do not agree to
submit the dispute to arbitration, either party may bring the dispute to any
court of competent jurisdiction for resolution. The Development Agreement will
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada.
 
    Neither the Company nor the Energy Provider may assign its interest or
delegate its duties under the Development Agreement without the prior written
consent of the other (not to be unreasonably withheld), except that either party
may assign its interest in the Development Agreement if a concurrent assignment
of its interests in the ESA has been made pursuant to the ESA to the same
entity.
 
LEASE
 
    Pursuant to a lease (the "Lease"), the Company has leased the Plant Site to
the Energy Provider for a fixed monthly base rent of $1.00. The Lease, which has
a 20-year term and provides for 5-year renewal terms, is a "net" lease, pursuant
to which the Energy Provider will pay all Impositions. The Energy Provider may
not use the Plant Site to provide services other than the Services without the
prior consent of the Company. In the event the Company gives such consent, the
fixed monthly base rent will be adjusted and other reasonable modifications will
be made to the Lease.
 
UNICOM GUARANTY
 
    The obligations of the Energy Provider to complete the Plant in accordance
with the Development Agreement and in a manner capable of delivering the energy
requirements in accordance with the Energy Service Agreement are guaranteed by
the Energy Provider's ultimate parent, Unicom (the "Unicom Guaranty"). Unicom
agrees that the Unicom Guaranty shall be a continuing guaranty and that the
Company shall not be required to prosecute enforcement or other remedies against
the Energy Provider or any other guarantor of the Energy Provider's obligations
before calling on Unicom for performance. Unicom agrees that if for any reason
the Energy Provider shall fail or be unable to punctually and fully perform or
cause to be performed any of its obligations under the Development Agreement,
Unicom shall perform or cause to be performed such obligations promptly upon
demand. Unicom's obligations are limited to an amount equal to $30.0 million
dollars (or, under certain circumstances, an amount less than $30.0 million) and
shall not be reduced until Substantial Completion of the Plant. Upon Substantial
Completion, the Unicom Guaranty shall be reduced by the amount invested by the
Energy Provider, except that ten percent shall be retained to provide assurance
that Final Completion shall occur in accordance with the milestone schedule
under the Development Agreement.
 
                                      169
<PAGE>
ENERGY SERVICE AGREEMENT
 
    The Company and the Energy Provider have agreed to the form of an energy
service agreement (the "ESA"), which is currently attached as an exhibit to the
Development Agreement. The ESA is expected to contain provisions as described
herein. The ESA sets forth the rights and obligations of the Company and the
Energy Provider relating to, among other things, the development, testing,
commissioning, operation and maintenance of the Plant; the making of Capacity
and Consumption Payments; risk allocation in the event of a force majeure;
events of default; rights of early termination and the consequences thereof;
liability and indemnity obligations; and assignment and transfer of interests
thereunder. The initial term of the ESA is twenty years from the Commencement
Date, with three five-year renewal terms.
 
    CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.  The obligations of the Company and the Energy
Provider under the ESA are subject to the satisfaction of various conditions
precedent, a number of which have already been satisfied. The Company expects
that all remaining conditions precedent will be timely satisfied in the ordinary
course of business.
 
    OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR.  The ESA requires that the operation,
maintenance and repair of the Plant be conducted in accordance with applicable
laws and regulations and the Project Scope, as defined in the ESA. The Energy
Provider will be required to have its personnel on duty at the Plant twenty-four
hours per day, seven days per week. The ESA sets forth a scheduling procedure
for scheduled maintenance. Inspection, testing, preventive and corrective
maintenance, repairs, replacements and improvements of the Plant will be carried
out during such scheduled maintenance periods.
 
    PAYMENTS.  The ESA provides for a two-part price structure consisting of a
capital component (the "Capacity Charge") to be paid monthly whether Services
are taken or not by the Complex and an energy component (the "Consumption
Charge") to be paid monthly for Services actually taken by the Complex. The
capital component will be paid in advance. The energy component will be paid in
arrears. The Capacity Charge and the Consumption Charge are expected to be
adjusted annually by reference to the Consumer Price Index or a similar index.
 
    FORCE MAJEURE.  Each party will be excused from performance of its
respective obligations under the ESA if performance of such obligations is
materially and adversely affected by a Force Majeure Event, although each party
is obligated to take reasonable steps to restore its ability to perform. Force
Majeure Events are circumstances that, by the exercise of reasonable diligence,
the party is unable to overcome or prevent. Force Majeure Events include, but
are not limited to, acts of God, war, civil commotion, embargoes, epidemics,
fires, cyclones, droughts and emergencies other than those caused by the
negligence or wilful misconduct of the party claiming a Force Majeure Event.
 
    DEFAULTS.  The ESA divides events of default into Energy Provider events of
default and Complex events of default. A party receiving notice of certain
defaults has thirty days to cure such default. If not cured within such time
period, an uncured default may lead to the termination of the ESA.
 
    ENERGY PROVIDER DEFAULTS.  If at any time after the Commencement Date the
Energy Provider fails to provide Services in accordance with the ESA (a
"Performance Failure"), the Energy Provider is required to: (i) provide
immediate notice to the Complex and provide the Complex with a corrective action
plan consistent with a contingency plan to be developed prior to the
Commencement Date; (ii) use best efforts to correct or cure such Performance
Failure; and (iii) provide immediate access to the Complex and work together
with the Complex to identify the source of the Performance Failure. After a
Performance Failure has existed for thirty two (32) consecutive hours, or thirty
two (32) hours of any forty eight hour (48) period, the Complex will: (i) be
entitled to assume control of the Plant and maintain such control until such
Performance Failure has been cured or corrected and take any action reasonably
intended to cure or correct such failure at the Energy Provider's expense; (ii)
be entitled to an abatement of the Capacity Charge for the affected Service;
(iii) have the right to hire, at the Energy Provider's expense, an
 
                                      170
<PAGE>
independent consultant to review the circumstances surrounding the Performance
Failure and make written recommendations as to a corrective action to be
implemented at the Energy Provider's sole expense; and (iv) in the event the
Energy Provider fails to promptly implement the consultant's recommendations, be
entitled to terminate the ESA and purchase the Plant from the Energy Provider.
In the event the ESA is terminated pursuant to an Energy Supplier Default, the
purchase price for the Plant shall be equal to the Energy Provider's depreciated
basis calculated on a twenty year straight line method in the Plant, less any
costs incurred for required repair and/or maintenance.
 
    OPTION TO PURCHASE.  The Company shall possess a continuing option to
purchase the Plant at any time prior to the termination of the ESA, exercisable
by written notice given to the Energy Provider not less than one year prior to
the date upon which such purchase shall close as specified in the notice. It is
a condition to the Energy Provider's obligation to consummate the sale that the
Company shall assume, indemnify and hold the Energy Provider harmless from all
obligations of the Energy Provider accruing after the closing under all
contracts and agreements with respect to the Plant under which any performance
obligations will continue following such sale. At the closing, the Energy
Provider will assign and the Company will be obligated to assume all such
contracts and agreements.
 
    ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER.  Neither the Company nor the Energy Provider shall
be permitted under the ESA to assign or transfer its rights under the ESA
without the prior written consent of the other. Notwithstanding this, the ESA
provides that the Company may assign its rights to any affiliate and that both
the Company and the Energy Provider may assign their respective rights under the
ESA to lenders to whom either party provides a security interest in their
respective properties in connection with financing each of the properties. In
addition, the Energy Provider is prohibited from effecting changes in its
ownership, except that it may issue ownership interests to certain specified
entities which are public utilities or affiliates thereof.
 
    DISPUTE RESOLUTION.  In the event of a dispute under the ESA, either party
may at any time refer the dispute to be settled by binding arbitration pursuant
to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.
 
CONSTRUCTION, OPERATION AND RECIPROCAL EASEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELATED AGREEMENTS
 
    The Company, Bazaar, AMH and the Energy Provider (collectively, the "REA
Parties") have entered into (except with respect to the Energy Provider, who is
not a signatory but is bound by) the Construction, Operation and Reciprocal
Easement Agreement (the "REA"). AMH is expected to assign its rights and
obligations under the REA to Aladdin Music, and Aladdin Music is expected to
assume such rights and obligations, upon execution of the Aladdin Music
Operating Agreement. The REA sets forth agreements among the REA Parties
regarding, among other things, easements, construction standards and
requirements, encroachments, use and operating covenants, maintenance
requirements, insurance requirements, casualty and condemnation and the sharing
of certain facilities and costs relating thereto. The REA has been recorded in
the Official Records of Clark County, Nevada and the agreements therein will run
with the land, affecting subsequent owners and lessees thereof.
 
   
    The Site Work Development and Construction Agreement (the "Site Work
Agreement") entered into among the Company, AHL and Bazaar provides, among other
things, that the Company and AHL will, at their cost and expense, perform
certain demolition work and certain site work including certain infrastructure
improvements and the construction of the initial building shell for the Aladdin
Improvements (as defined herein) and the Bazaar Improvements (as defined
herein). The Site Work Agreement also provides that Bazaar will contribute
approximately $14.2 million (including interest) (the "Bazaar Site Work
Contribution") to the cost of the site work. In addition, subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions being negotiated with Scotiabank and London
Clubs, it is intended by the parties that the Company will be responsible for
costs in excess of $36 million in connection with the construction of the
Carpark. The Site Work Agreement further provides that the Company will
construct the Aladdin
    
 
                                      171
<PAGE>
Improvements and Bazaar will construct the Bazaar Improvements in accordance
with a certain construction schedule and pursuant to good and workmanlike
standards and with first-class materials.
 
    The Site Work Agreement and the REA provide that the Company will: (i)
construct a first-class hotel and casino facility (the "Aladdin Improvements")
on the Gaming Site (as defined in the REA); (ii) lease the Bazaar Site (as
defined in the REA) to Bazaar, which covenants to construct and operate a
first-class Retail Facility (as defined in the REA) and related improvements
(the "Bazaar Improvements"); (iii) lease the Aladdin Music Site (as defined in
the REA) to AMH, which covenants to construct and operate a first-class hotel
and casino facility (i.e., the Music Project hotel and casino); and (iv) lease
the Utility Site (as defined in the REA) to the Energy Provider, which covenants
to construct and operate a central utility plant (the "Central Utility Plant").
The Bazaar Improvements include the Carpark and additional surface-level parking
facilities beneath and adjacent to the Retail Facility for approximately 350
motor vehicles (the "Common Parking Area").
 
    The REA also provides that Bazaar grants, as to its ownership or leasehold
interest in its tract, to the other REA Parties, as to their ownership or
leasehold interests in their tracts, a non-exclusive easement for automobile
parking in and on the Common Parking Area. The use and operation of the Common
Parking Area is also subject to the Common Parking Area Use Agreement (the
"Parking Agreement") entered into between the Company and Bazaar, pursuant to
which Bazaar covenants to maintain and operate the Common Parking Area for the
non-exclusive use of all the REA Parties. The Parking Agreement provides, among
other things, that the Company (i) will pay a fee of $3.2 million per year,
payable monthly and adjusted annually pursuant to a consumer price index-based
formula, for usage of the Common Parking Area, (ii) will pay its proportionate
share of the operating costs attributable to the Common Parking Area, and (iii)
has the right to assign a portion of its usage rights and obligations to Aladdin
Music, although such assignment may not relieve the Company of any of its
obligations in connection therewith. If and when Planet Hollywood's subsidiary
becomes a member of Aladdin Music, the Parking Agreement, by its terms, shall be
amended and restated to add Aladdin Music as a party, and the Company's
proportionate share of the operating costs attributable to the Common Parking
Area shall be reduced.
 
    The REA contains agreements pursuant to which the REA Parties, as to their
ownership or leasehold interests in their respective tracts, grant to the other
REA Parties, as to their ownership or leasehold interests in their respective
tracts, easements for, among other things, (i) vehicular and pedestrian access,
(ii) installation and operation of utilities, (iii) construction, (iv) common
structural support, (v) installation and maintenance of exterior lights to
highlight grantees' buildings, (vi) truck loading, (vii) encroachments and the
maintenance thereof, (viii) roof space for the installation and operation of
certain telecommunication and ventilation equipment, (ix) setbacks, (x)
maintenance and construction of grantees' buildings, (xi) construction and
operation of a proposed monorail and (xii) signage.
 
    The REA sets forth covenants among the REA Parties to, among other things,
(i) perform the construction of the Redeveloped Aladdin (as defined in the REA)
in accordance with first-class standards, (ii) cooperate with one another and
with each REA Party's architects, engineers and contractors and (iii) exchange
certain plans and specifications and other information. Certain modifications of
any REA Party's plans or specifications will be subject to certain approval
rights of certain other affected REA Parties. The REA also provides that the
Company may construct certain optional improvements, including an office tower
and/or time-share facilities.
 
    Pursuant to the terms of the REA, the Company has covenanted that it shall
complete (subject to force majeure) the Aladdin Improvements, and Bazaar has
covenanted that it shall complete (subject to force majeure) the Bazaar
Improvements, on or before the First Scheduled Opening Date (as defined in the
Site Work Agreement). Similarly, AMH has covenanted that it shall complete the
Music Project hotel and casino on or before the Second Scheduled Opening Date
(which is currently anticipated to be six (6) months after the First Scheduled
Opening Date).
 
                                      172
<PAGE>
    The REA provides that, subject to certain operational requirements of the
other REA Parties, each REA Party will operate the improvements on its tract in
a first-class manner, as more particularly set forth in the REA.
 
    The REA contains agreements among the REA Parties to maintain their
improvements in good order and in first-class condition, reasonable wear and
tear excepted. The REA also allocates responsibility among the REA Parties to
maintain the Common Area (as defined in the REA) of the Site (as defined in the
REA). Responsibility for the payment of the costs for such Common Area
maintenance is allocated proportionately; and the Company has the right to
assign a portion of its payment obligation to AMH, although such assignment may
not relieve the Company of any of its obligations in connection therewith.
 
    The REA contains provisions requiring that in the event of any casualty or
condemnation, each REA Party shall, at its cost and expense, restore the
improvements located on its respective tract or tracts, including the Common
Area thereon, regardless of the availability of insurance proceeds or
condemnation awards; provided, however, that (a) with respect to damage or
condemnation affecting the Common Parking Area, the costs and expenses in excess
of available insurance proceeds or condemnation awards shall be shared by each
REA Party in accordance with its respective tract's proportionate share of
parking spaces required in accordance with local law, and (b) certain
restoration obligations expire 25 years (or such longer period approved by the
REA Parties) after the Second Scheduled Opening Date.
 
    The REA contains provisions establishing self-help remedies for REA Parties
affected by an REA Party's failure to meet its maintenance or restoration
obligations set forth in the REA.
 
    Certain disputes between the REA Parties that arise under the REA are,
pursuant to the REA, to be decided pursuant to binding arbitration, as more
particularly set forth in the REA. The REA Parties' maximum liability to one
another under the REA is limited to such REA Parties' interests in the
Redeveloped Aladdin, as more particularly set forth in the REA.
 
          AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE MALL PROJECT OR THE MUSIC PROJECT
 
BAZAAR LLC OPERATING AGREEMENT
 
    TH Bazaar Centers Inc. ("THB"), a wholly owned subsidiary of TrizecHahn, and
Bazaar Holdings (collectively, the "Bazaar Members") are parties to the Bazaar
LLC Operating Agreement setting forth their agreement as to the relationship
between Bazaar and the Bazaar Members and among the Bazaar Members themselves as
to the conduct of the business and internal affairs of Bazaar. The Bazaar
Operating Agreement may be amended or terminated by the Bazaar Members without
the consent of any of the Issuers, London Clubs, the Company, or the holders of
the Notes.
 
    MANAGEMENT.  Pursuant to the Bazaar LLC Operating Agreement, the business
and affairs of Bazaar shall be managed by a board of managers (the "Bazaar
Board"), consisting of four members (each, a "Bazaar Board Member"). Each Bazaar

change its designated representatives on the Bazaar Board. The number of
representatives on the Bazaar Board may be increased by the Bazaar Board so long
as each Bazaar Member maintains an equal number of representatives.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Bazaar Member acquires or obtains a
greater than their current interest in Bazaar, then such Bazaar Member shall
have the right to designate a majority of the representatives on the Bazaar
Board, and the number of representatives selected by the other Bazaar Member
shall be reduced proportionately.
 
    MALL GUARANTY.  Subject to certain conditions, THB's parent, TrizecHahn,
THOP, Bazaar Holdings, AHL and the Trust have agreed to jointly and severally
assume recourse liability and enter into the Mall Guaranty in favor of the Mall
Lender upon completion of the Mall Financing, until certain earnings and loan to
value targets have been met.
 
                                      173
<PAGE>
    TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.  The Bazaar LLC Operating Agreement contains
customary restrictions on the transfer of interests by Bazaar Members. In
particular, no Bazaar Member may transfer its interests to a Prohibited
Transferee without the prior consent of the other Bazaar Members.
 
    The term "Prohibited Transferee" includes: (a) any owner, operator or
manager of any resort hotel located in Clark County, Nevada, (b) any shopping
center owner, manager and/or developer if THB will continue to be a Bazaar
Member following the transfer, (c) any person or entity primarily engaged in the
business of owning or operating a casino or other similar type of gambling
facility, (d) any person who has been found unsuitable or has withdrawn an
application to be found suitable by the Nevada Gaming Authorities, or (e) FOCUS
2000, Inc., a Nevada corporation, or the then current owner or lessee of the
real property located at the northeast corner of the Strip and Harmon Avenue, in
Las Vegas, Nevada.
 
    MARKETING AND SALE OF THE MALL PROJECT.  Commencing on the fifth anniversary
of the opening of the Mall Project and continuing for five years, any Bazaar
Member (the "Selling Member") holding a 50% or greater interest in Bazaar may
cause Bazaar to offer the Mall Project for sale on the open market by delivering
written notice to the other Bazaar Member (the "Non-Selling Member"). If any
offer is received that the Selling Member desires to accept, the Selling Member
must give written notice specifying all terms of the proposed sale to the
Non-Selling Member, who shall have 30 days to elect to purchase the entire
interest at the terms specified in the notice; provided however, that if THB is
the Selling Member, then Bazaar Holdings, as Non-Selling Member shall (subject
to certain conditions) have the additional option to purchase 12.5% of the
interest in Bazaar for the appropriate allocable share of the purchase price
(and other fees specified in such notice).
 
    TERM.  Bazaar will continue to operate as a limited liability company until
December 31, 2099, unless earlier dissolved or extended by unanimous agreement
of the Bazaar Members.
 
MALL FINANCING
 
    Bazaar entered into a building loan agreement with the Mall Lenders and
Fleet as Administrative Agent (the "Mall Agent") for the Mall Financing, whereby
the Mall Lenders will agree to lend up to $194.0 million to Bazaar to finance
the Mall Project. The proceeds from the Mall Financing will be used for the
construction of the themed Desert Passage, expected to contain approximately
522,000 square feet of retail space, and the approximately 4,800-space Carpark.
The Mall Project is expected to open by April of the year 2000, as such date may
be extended for force majeure events. See "Description of the Notes-- Events of
Default."
 
    TERM.  The Mall Financing has a stated maturity of five years from closing.
Bazaar shall have two one-year extension options if certain conditions are
satisfied and at the end of the initial five year term, any unfunded commitment
amount will be automatically cancelled.
 
    AMORTIZATION AND PREPAYMENT.  The Mall Financing will be interest-only
during the initial term. During the extension terms, Bazaar will be required to
amortize principal based on 25-year (during the first extension term) and
24-year (during the second extension term) mortgage-style amortization and an
interest rate derived based on the then prevailing 10 year Treasury rate plus
150 bps.
 
    FEES.  Bazaar will be required to pay a fee of 10 bps per annum on the
unfunded loan amount. Such fee shall be computed on an actual/360-day basis and
shall be payable quarterly in arrears from and after the closing.
 
    SECURITY.  The loan is secured by a deed of trust, assignment of leases and
rents and security agreement which shall be a first lien on Bazaar's interest in
the premises on which the Mall Project is built and the Mall Project itself.
 
                                      174
<PAGE>
    COVENANTS.  The Mall Financing contains a project financial covenant based
on loan to value and customary affirmative and negative covenants typical for
this type of transaction.
 
    EVENTS OF DEFAULT.  The Mall Financing provides that all customary events of
default for similar loan transactions, consistent with the following, shall
constitute events of default under the loan documents, including: (i) (a)
insolvency or bankruptcy of the Borrower, TrizecHahn or THOP (and under certain
circumstances, Bazaar Holdings), (b) breach of TrizecHahn and THOP guarantor
covenants or (c) judgements against TrizecHahn in excess of $25.0 million
individually or in the aggregate (which are not discharged or appealed within 60
days) and (ii) failure to pay debt service within five days after due.
 
    CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.  The Mall Financing provides that the Mall Agent's
obligation to make the initial advance of the Mall Financing is subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things, (i) that
Scotiabank consent to an amended Site Work Agreement, that provides that the
Company will be responsible for costs in excess of $36 million in connection
with the construction of the Carpark and (ii) that the contribution of a minimum
of 25% of total project costs shall be contributed as up-front equity prior to
funding of the loan, of which at least $35.0 million of such investment shall be
in the form of cash expended in the Mall Project.
 
MUSIC PROJECT MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
 
   
    The Company and Planet Hollywood have entered into a Memorandum of
Understanding and Letter of Intent, dated as of September 2, 1997, as amended by
a letter agreement dated as of October 15, 1997 (as so amended, the "Music
Project Memorandum of Understanding") in connection with the formation of a
joint venture between subsidiaries of the Company and Planet Hollywood to own,
develop and operate the Music Project. The Music Project Memorandum of
Understanding is intended to be an agreement (subject to certain limited
conditions) with respect to certain matters regarding the formation and
operation of Aladdin Music, however the parties have agreed to use their best
efforts promptly to complete and execute all agreements and other documents that
may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of the Music Project
Memorandum of Understanding. The Company anticipates that such agreements will
include the following-described agreements, although the terms described below
are subject to further revision and may be modified by the Company and Planet
Hollywood prior to the execution of definitive documentation. See "Risk
Factors--Completion of the Mall Project and the Music Project."
    
 
    ALADDIN MUSIC OPERATING AGREEMENT.  It is expected that AMH and a subsidiary
of Planet Hollywood (the "Music Project Members") will enter into an operating
agreement (the "Aladdin Music Operating Agreement") to govern the operations of
Aladdin Music. The Company has formed AMH, which it anticipates will hold (on a
fully diluted basis through shares and warrants) a 50% member interest in
Aladdin Music. Prior to the exercise of its warrants (the "Music Project
Warrants"), AMH will own a 49% preferred membership interest ("Music Preferred
Shares") and a 49% common membership interest ("Music Common Shares") in Aladdin
Music, however, exercise of the Music Project Warrants will increase AMH's
percentage interest in Aladdin Music to 50%. Planet Hollywood, through a
subsidiary (the "Planet Hollywood Member"), will initially hold the remaining
interests in Aladdin Music.
 
   
    CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS.  Through AMH, the Company is expected to contribute
to Aladdin Music (i) a ground lease, at nominal rent, of the approximately 4.75
acre parcel of land for the Music Project (including a right to acquire the fee
interest in such land upon the receipt by the Company of necessary permits and
subdivision approvals) and (ii) $21.3 million in cash. The contribution value of
the ground lease will be $20.0 million. The Planet Hollywood Member will
contribute cash to Aladdin Music in the amount of $41.3 million. Substantially
all of the contributions of the Music Project Members are expected to be made
immediately prior to, or concurrently with, the closing of construction
financing with respect to the Music Project, however certain pre-development
costs of Aladdin Music incurred with respect to the
    
 
                                      175
<PAGE>
Music Project will be contributed to Aladdin Music prior to such date. These
predevelopment costs include design, architecture and organization costs.
 
    SHARES.  Aladdin Music is expected to have two classes of shares (which
represent units of membership interests in Aladdin Music): Music Common Shares
and Music Preferred Shares (collectively, "Music Project Shares"). The
above-described contributions of the Music Project Members will be deemed
contributions in respect of Music Preferred Shares. Except with respect to
distributions to cover tax liability of Music Project Members (or, if any Music
Project Member is a pass-through entity, its equity interest holders) arising
from their interest in Music, the Music Preferred Shares will have distribution,
redemption and liquidation preferences over all Music Common Shares. Rights to
allocations to the capital account and distributions in respect of the Music
Preferred Shares will cumulate (but not compound) quarterly at the rate of 12%
per annum on the capital account balance in respect thereof. Preferred
distributions to the Planet Hollywood Member will have priority of payment over
preferred distributions to AMH. In addition, to the extent that there is
insufficient cash available for distribution to make such preferred
distributions, the amounts which are not distributed will accrue (but not
compound) for the benefit of the party entitled thereto. Distributions of such
accrued amounts to the Planet Hollywood Member will have priority over
distributions to AMH.
 
    MANAGEMENT AND DAY-TO-DAY OPERATIONS.  Management of Aladdin Music will be
the responsibility of a board of managers (the "Music Project Board"), comprised
initially of four members designated by the Planet Hollywood Member and three
members designated by AMH, until AMH exercises its warrants for the acquisition
of additional Music Project Shares, at which time the Music Project Board will
be comprised of four representatives each of AMH and the Planet Hollywood
Member. Major decisions of the Music Project Board will require the vote of a
supermajority of the board members. All decisions other than such major
decisions will be delegated to an operating committee comprised of two
representatives each of AMH and the Planet Hollywood Member (the "Operating
Committee"). The development of the Music Project and renovation of the Theater
will be coordinated by the Company under the Music Project Development
Agreement. Day-to-day management and operation of the Music Project and the
Theater will be delegated to the Company under the Music Project Management
Agreement.
 
    TRANSFERS OF SHARES.  Transfers of Music Project Shares will only be
permitted:
 
        (i) to affiliates of Music Project Members, LCNI, or persons approved by
    a majority of the interests held by Music Project Members; and
 
        (ii) to persons other than certain prohibited transferees after giving
    other Music Project Members a right of first negotiation for the acquisition
    of such Shares.
 
    LIABILITY, EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION.  The Aladdin Music Operating
Agreement will contain provisions relieving the Music Project Members, officers,
employees and Music Project Board Members and Operating Committee members from
certain liability, fiduciary duties and conflicts and will also provide for
various indemnities to such persons in respect of payment of expenses and errors
and omissions insurance.
 
    GAMING MATTERS.  Capital contributions, admission of new Music Project
Members, transfers of shares and payment of distributions by Aladdin Music will
be subject to receipt of Nevada Gaming Approvals. Music Project Members and
their affiliates, directors and employees will cooperate to obtain Gaming
Approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities, as necessary. If Nevada gaming
problems arise prior to a finding of unsuitability by the Nevada Gaming
Authorities, the Music Project Member causing such problem (or whose director,
officer or affiliate caused such problem) shall cooperate to remedy it and, if
not remedied, may be forced to sell its Music Project Shares to Aladdin Music or
its designee at fair market value.
 
                                      176
<PAGE>
    TERM.  Aladdin Music shall continue until January 24, 2097, or such other
time as agreed in writing by all Members.
 
    THE MUSIC PROJECT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.  Aladdin Music intends to contract
with the Company for the development of the Music Project and the Theater
renovation pursuant to a development agreement (the "Music Project Development
Agreement") on terms, and in form and substance, satisfactory to Aladdin Music
and the Company. Pursuant to the Music Project Development Agreement, the
Company will agree to provide services with respect to such development and
renovation, including (a) the selection of contractors, subcontractors and the
professional team including architects, engineers, surveyors, designers,
decorators and other technical and professional consultants; (b) the negotiation
on behalf of Aladdin Music of the agreements under which the contractors,
subcontractors and the professional team are to be retained by Aladdin Music;
(c) the supervision of the preparation of preliminary and final plans, including
landscaping, interior design and graphics; and (d) the preparation of
preliminary cost estimates and projections of cash flow requirements covering
the development costs during the Development Period, and the preparation and
updating from time to time of the development budget; subject, in each case, to
certain approval rights of Aladdin Music.
 
    REIMBURSEMENT UNDER MUSIC PROJECT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.  The Company will
be reimbursed for its costs and expenses in connection with its activities under
the Music Project Development Agreement.
 
    TERMINATION.  Each of the Company and Aladdin Music are anticipated to have
certain limited termination rights with respect to the Music Project Development
Agreement. Any termination of the Music Project Development Agreement will
entitle the Company to terminate the Music Project Management Agreement.
 
    INDEMNIFICATION.  Aladdin Music shall indemnify and hold the Company
harmless from claims arising out of the performance by Company of services under
the Music Project Development Agreement. The Company shall indemnify and hold
Aladdin Music harmless from and against any and all claims arising from or in
connection with the Company's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
    MUSIC PROJECT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT.  Aladdin Music intends to contract with
the Company for the day-to-day management and operations of the Music Project
and the Theater and certain promotional services, pursuant to a management
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Aladdin Music and the Company
(the "Music Project Management Agreement"). The terms of the Music Project
Management Agreement are expected to be on terms at least as favorable as those
which would be available from an independent third party vendor.
 
    COMPENSATION UNDER MUSIC PROJECT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT.  The Music Project
Management Agreement will provide for the provision of management services by
the Company for the Music Project and the Theater in exchange for a base
management fee (the "Base Management Fee"), payable quarterly, equal to 1.50% of
the net revenue from the Music Project and the Theater and for an additional
management fee (the "Incentive Management Fee"), payable quarterly, equal to 6%
of the Management Excess Net Revenue (which is the amount obtained by dividing
(i) the amount of quarterly Adjusted Music EBITDA in excess of the Adjusted
Management EBITDA Threshold by (ii) Profit Margin). "Adjusted Music EBITDA"
means for any period Aladdin Music's earnings before (i) deductions for
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, (ii) payment of the Incentive
Management Fee, the Incentive Marketing Fee, and (iii) payment of leases for
furniture, fixtures or equipment. "Profit Margin" means for any quarter,
quarterly Adjusted EBITDA divided by quarterly Net Revenue. "Incentive Marketing
Fee" means an additional marketing fee, payable quarterly from Aladdin Music to
Planet Hollywood pursuant to the Marketing and Consulting Agreement (as defined
herein) between Aladdin Music and Planet Hollywood, equal to 6% of the Marketing
and Consulting Excess Net Revenue. "Marketing and Consulting Excess Net Revenue"
means the amount obtained by dividing (i) the amount of quarterly Adjusted
EBITDA in excess of the Adjusted Marketing EBITDA Threshold by (ii) the Profit
Margin. The "Adjusted Management
 
                                      177
<PAGE>
EBITDA Threshold" means quarterly Adjusted EBITDA of $10.0 million. The
"Adjusted Marketing EBITDA Threshold" means quarterly Adjusted EBITDA of $8.75
million. The Incentive Management Fee shall at all times (including, without
limitation, if the Adjusted Management EBITDA Threshold is met or if there is
sufficient cash available for distribution) be subordinate to debt service. To
the extent that the Adjusted Management EBITDA Threshold is met but there is
insufficient cash available for distribution for the payment of any or all of
such Incentive Management Fee and the payment of the Incentive Marketing Fee, or
if Aladdin Music is otherwise restricted by a lender from paying such fees, the
Incentive Management Fee shall be subordinate to the payment of the Incentive
Marketing Fee. Incentive Management Fees which are due but not paid shall accrue
(together with interest thereon) for the benefit of the Company. The Incentive
Management Fee shall not be payable to the Company for any quarter in which the
Adjusted Management EBITDA Threshold is not achieved. In addition, pursuant to
the Music Project Management Agreement, the Company shall provide certain
services to the Music Project and the Theater, including, without limitation,
accounting and financial services, MIS, general management and investor relation
services, promotional services and other agreed upon services in the ordinary
course of business by the Company for the Music Project and the Theater in
exchange for reimbursement of the fully allocated cost of such services.
 
    TERM.  The term of the Music Project Management Agreement shall be thirty
(30) years, subject to an option on the part of the Company to extend the term
for three successive ten year periods.
 
    TERMINATION FEE.  In the event that the Music Project Management Agreement
is terminated by Aladdin Music prior to the expiration of its term (including
extension options) and prior to the time that the Music Project Warrants may be
exercised, then (except under certain circumstances) the Company shall be paid a
termination fee of $50.0 million and AMH shall have the right to put its
investments in Aladdin Music to Planet Hollywood for an amount equal to such
investment's fair market value. Once AMH is able to exercise the Music Project
Warrant, all provisions relating to the termination fee and fair market purchase
option shall terminate.
 
    THE MARKETING AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT.  Aladdin Music intends to contract
with Planet Hollywood and an affiliate of Planet Hollywood for the provision of
certain marketing and consulting services to be provided to the Music Project
and for the license to Aladdin Music of all rights to the trademarks, tradenames
and related agreements which are necessary or desirable to operate and maintain
a "music-themed" hotel and restaurant on the Music Project land, pursuant to a
marketing and consulting agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Planet
Hollywood and Aladdin Music (the "Marketing and Consulting Agreement"). The
Marketing and Consulting Agreement is expected to provide for the provision of
marketing and consulting services by Planet Hollywood (and/or its affiliates)
for the Music Project in exchange for a base fee (the "Base Marketing Fee"),
payable quarterly, equal to 2.00% of the Music Project's quarterly Net Revenue
and for an additional marketing fee (the "Incentive Marketing Fee"), payable
quarterly, equal to 6% of the Marketing and Consulting Excess Net Revenue. The
Incentive Marketing Fee shall not be payable for any quarter in which the
Adjusted Marketing EBITDA Threshold is not achieved. In addition, to the extent
that the Adjusted Marketing EBITDA Threshold is met but there is insufficient
cash available for distribution for the payment of any or all of such fees, or
if Aladdin Music is otherwise restricted by a lender from paying the Incentive
Marketing Fee, the Incentive Marketing Fee shall accrue (together with interest
thereon) for the benefit of Planet Hollywood. In addition to the Base Marketing
Fee and the Incentive Marketing Fee, the Marketing and Consulting Agreement
shall provide that Planet Hollywood shall be reimbursed, on a quarterly basis,
for its costs and expenses under the Marketing and Consulting Agreement in an
amount equal to 0.5% of quarterly Net Revenue, without supporting documentation
as well as for certain other approved expenses. The Marketing and Consulting
Agreement is further expected to provide that Planet Hollywood shall be
restricted from allowing the use or operation of similar "music concept" themed
restaurants at any location in Clark County, Nevada, other than at the Music
Project.
 
                                      178

    THE GROUND LEASE.  AMH intends to assign its ground lease (the "Music
Project Lease") of the site designated for the Music Project to Aladdin Music.
The Music Project Lease is for nominal rent and includes the right of the lesee
to acquire fee title to the Music Project land upon completion of the division
of the Project Site into separate legal parcels. Pursuant to the Music Project
Lease, Aladdin Music shall be required to cooperate with such division and to
fund its pro rata share of the costs thereof, based upon the ratio that the
acreage of the Music Project land bears to the total acreage of the Project
Site.
 
    THE THEATER LEASE.  The Company is expected to enter into a lease agreement
(the "Theater Lease") with respect to the Theater pursuant to which, among other
matters, (i) Aladdin Music shall lease the Theater from the Company for a period
of at least 69 years on a "triple-net" basis, for nominal rent, (ii) the Company
shall have certain rights with respect to the lease-back of the Theater, (iii)
certain provisions shall be made relating to the promotional and security
services for the Theater, (iv) Aladdin Music shall agree to renovate the Theater
prior to the opening of the Aladdin and to maintain the Theater in a "first
class" condition during the term of the Theater Lease.
 
MUSIC PROJECT FINANCING
 
   
    Prior to the commencement of the development of the Music Project, Aladdin
Music is expected to enter into a commitment letter for a credit facility with a
syndicate of lenders whereby the lenders will agree to finance the construction
of the Music Project. Currently, Aladdin Music is considering several proposals
for such financing. See "Risk Factors--Completion of the Mall Project and the
Music Project."

            CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
 
GENERAL
 
    The following discussion is a summary of certain material federal income tax
considerations relevant to the exchange of Old Notes for New Notes and the
acquisition, ownership and disposition of the Notes by a U.S. Holder. A "U.S.
Holder" means a holder of a Note which is (i) an individual who is a citizen or
resident of the United States for federal income tax purposes, (ii) a
corporation or partnership created or organized in the United States or under
the laws of the United States or any state thereof (including the District of
Columbia), (iii) an estate (other than a foreign estate) or (iv) any trust if a
court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the
administration of the trust and one or more United States persons have the
authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.
 
    This summary is based upon current laws, regulations, rulings and judicial
decisions some of which are not clear and all of which are subject to change,
possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change could affect the continuing
validity of this discussion. In addition, the validity of the conclusions
contained in this summary depends upon the accuracy of representations made by
officers of Holdings and projections prepared by the financial advisors to
Holdings in connection with the Offering.
 
    This summary does not purport to consider all the possible federal income
tax consequences of the exchange of Old Notes for New Notes or the purchase,
ownership or disposition of the Notes and is not intended to reflect the
particular tax position of any beneficial owner. It addresses only U.S. Holders
who hold the Notes as capital assets and does not address beneficial owners that
may be subject to special tax rules, such as foreign holders, banks, insurance
companies, dealers in securities or currencies, purchasers that hold the Notes
as a hedge against currency risks or as part of a straddle with other
investments or as part of a "synthetic security" or other integrated investment
(including a "conversion transaction") comprised of a Note and one or more other
investments, or purchasers that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S.
dollar. In addition, the discussion does not address any aspect of state, local
or foreign taxation.
 
    HOLDERS OF THE NOTES ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE
UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF EXCHANGING THE OLD NOTES FOR
NEW NOTES AND ACQUIRING, OWNING, AND DISPOSING OF THE NOTES AS WELL AS THE
APPLICATION OF STATE, LOCAL, AND FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX LAWS.
 
TAX TREATMENT OF THE EXCHANGE OF OLD NOTES FOR NEW NOTES
 
    The exchange of Old Notes for New Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer
should not be treated as an "exchange" for federal income tax purposes because
the New Notes will not differ materially in kind or extent from the Old Notes
and because the exchange will occur by operation of the terms of the Old Notes.
As a result, there should be no federal income tax consequences to holders
exchanging Old Notes for New Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer. Tax
consequences of the ownership and disposition of a New Note should be the same
as the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of an Old Note (other than
the disposition of an Old Note pursuant to this Exchange Offer).
 
TAX TREATMENT OF THE NOTES
 
    CLASSIFICATION OF THE NOTES AS DEBT FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX
PURPOSES.  Although the matter is not free from doubt, the Notes will be treated
as debt of Holdings for federal income tax purposes. Although the matter is not
free from doubt, the existence of Capital as a joint and several obligor on the
Notes should be
 
                                      180
<PAGE>
disregarded for federal income tax purposes. In addition, although the matter is
not free from doubt, for federal income tax purposes, the existence of the
Company as an entity separate from Holdings will be disregarded.
 
    The determination of whether an instrument is properly treated as debt or
equity for federal income tax purposes is inherently factual and no particular
factor is dispositive. Whether an instrument is characterized as debt or equity
for federal income tax purposes depends upon the facts and circumstances
surrounding the issuer and the terms and operation of the instrument. Several
characteristics of the instrument are relevant to the determination, but no
single factor is controlling. Some of the factors considered by the courts and
the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") include: (1) the intent of the parties, (2)
the presence of a definite maturity date, (3) the extent of the holders' ability
to participate in management, (4) the holders' ability to force repayment in the
event of default, (5) the issuer's projected ability to make required payments
of principal and interest as they become due, (6) the identity of ownership
between the creditors and shareholders, (7) the debt to equity ratio of the
issuer and (8) the holders' participation in the profits of the issuer. Based on
the foregoing and other factors, although the matter is not free from doubt, the
Notes will be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes. There can be no
assurance, however, that the IRS would not seek to challenge this conclusion or
that such a challenge, if made, would not be upheld by a court. If the Notes
were recharacterized as equity for federal income tax purposes, certain adverse
consequences could result to Holdings and the holders, including the possibility
that Holdings could be taxable as a corporation rather than a partnership.
Holdings's qualification as a partnership for federal income tax purposes is
dependent upon certain facts and circumstances, not all of which are within the
control of Holdings, including whether the Notes qualify as debt for federal
income tax purposes. Although the matter is not free from doubt, Holdings is
expected to qualify as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. On the
Issue Date, Holdings received an opinion of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher &
Flom, LLP that, as of such date, Holdings qualified as a partnership and not an
association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation and the
Company would be disregarded as an entity separate from Holdings for federal
income tax purposes. This opinion of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, LLP
was conditioned upon the receipt of representations from Holdings, the Company
and others that Holdings and the Company had been operating in a manner that
allowed Holdings to qualify as a partnership and the Company to be disregarded
as an entity separate from Holdings for federal income tax purposes as of the
Issue Date. There can be no assurance however, that the IRS would not seek to
challenge Holdings' status as a partnership or the Company's status as an entity
that is not separate from Holdings or that such a challenge, if made, would not
be upheld in court. Based on the position set forth above, the following
discussion assumes that the Notes are properly characterized as debt for federal
income tax purposes.
 
    ISSUE PRICE.  On the Issue Date, the issue price of the Units was allocated
between the Notes and the Warrants based on their relative fair market values.
For purposes of computing original issue discount ("OID"), discussed below, the
issue price of the Notes is equal to the portion of the issue price of the Units
allocated to the Notes. Holders who purchased a Unit at original issue for its
issue price have an initial tax basis for the Note equal to its issue price.
With respect to the $519.40 issue price per Unit, Holdings has allocated $451.68
to the Note, which therefore represents its issue price. This allocation
reflects Holdings' judgment as to the relative value of the Note and Warrants at
the time of issuance. The allocation is binding on a U.S. Holder unless such
U.S. Holder explicitly discloses a different allocation on an attachment to its
tax return for the taxable year that includes the acquisition date of the Unit.
The allocation is not, however, binding on the IRS and there can be no assurance
that the IRS would not challenge this allocation or that such a challenge, if
made, would not be upheld in court.
 
    ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT.  The Notes were issued at an original issue
discount for federal income tax purposes. A holder of a Note will be required to
recognize such OID as ordinary income on a constant yield to maturity basis as
described below, regardless of the holder's regular method of accounting. A
 
                                      181
<PAGE>
holder of a Note will be required to include the OID on the Note in its taxable
income as it accrues, in advance of the receipt of some or all of the related
cash payments.
 
    The total amount of OID with respect to the Notes is equal to the excess of
their "stated redemption price at maturity" over their "issue price." The
"stated redemption price at maturity" of the Notes is the sum of all payments
required to be made with respect to the Notes (whether denominated as principal
or interest) other than payments of "qualified stated interest." "Qualified
stated interest" is any interest based on a fixed rate, and payable
unconditionally at fixed periodic intervals of one year or less during the
entire term of the debt instrument. Because none of the interest to be paid on
the Notes constitutes qualified stated interest, the stated redemption price at
maturity is equal to the sum of all payments to be made with respect to the
Notes. The issue price of the Notes is the portion of the issue price of the
Units, as described above, allocated to the Notes.
 
    Except as provided below, a holder of a Note is required to include in gross
income as interest income an amount equal to the sum of the daily portions of
the OID for each day during the taxable year that such Note was held. The daily
portion of the OID on a Note is determined by allocating to each day in an
accrual period its ratable portion of the increase during such accrual period in
the adjusted issue price of the Note. The increase during an accrual period in
the "adjusted issue price" of the Note is generally an amount equal to the
product of (A) the adjusted issue price of the Note at the beginning of such
accrual period (the issue price of the Note determined as described above,
generally increased by all prior accruals of OID with respect to the Note and
reduced by all payments made with respect to the Note) and (B) the Note's "yield
to maturity". The Note's yield to maturity is the discount rate, which when
applied to all payments required to be made with respect to the Note, results in
a present value equal to the issue price. Based on the allocated issue price of
the Notes as described above, the yield to maturity of the Notes is 15.06% per
annum (computed on a semiannual bond equivalent basis).
 
    Holdings is obligated to pay Liquidated Damages to holders of the Old Notes
under certain circumstances. If any such Liquidated Damages are paid, the amount
of such Liquidated Damages will be includible in ordinary income and, in
addition, it is possible that the Old Notes will be treated as having been
reissued at the time of such payment for purposes of applying the federal income
tax rules regarding OID. If so, to the extent the possibility that additional
payments of Liquidated Damages would be required is not a remote or incidental
contingency within the meaning of the regulations as of the time of such deemed
reissuance, a holder could be required to accrue such projected payments on the
Old Notes on a constant yield to maturity basis from the date of such reissuance
and in certain circumstances to treat as interest income (rather than capital
gain) all or a portion of any gain recognized on disposition of the Old Notes.
 
    MARKET DISCOUNT.  A holder that acquired a Note after the initial Offering
may be subject to the market discount provisions of the Code. Generally, a Note
will be deemed to have been purchased at a market discount if the holder's basis
of such Note immediately after the Note is acquired is less than the Note's
"revised issue price." The Note's "revised issue price" is its issue price plus
the aggregate amount of OID includible in income before the Note was acquired.
The amount of market discount is the excess, if any, of the Note's revised issue
price over its basis in the hands of the holder immediately after its
acquisition. However, market discount will not be considered to exist if, at the
time of the acquisition, the discount is less than 1/4 of 1% of the Note's
revised issue price multiplied by the number of complete years remaining to
maturity.
 
    If a holder acquired a Note at a market discount, such holder will recognize
ordinary income (which is generally treated as interest income) when the Note
matures or is disposed of to the extent of the lesser of the gain or the
"accrued market discount." The "accrued market discount" is the total market
discount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
which the holder held the Note and
 
                                      182
<PAGE>
the denominator of which is the number of days from the date the holder acquired
the Note up to (and including) the maturity date of the Note. As an alternative
to this ratable method, a holder of a Note acquired at a market discount may
elect to compute the accrued market discount based upon a constant yield to
maturity basis. Such election would apply only to the Note for which the
election is made.
 
    The Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, before maturity. If some or
all of the Notes are redeemed, each holder who acquired a Note at a market
discount would be required to treat the principal payment as ordinary interest
income to the extent of any accrued market discount on the Notes. If a holder of
a Note with market discount makes a gift of the Note, the holder must recognize
any accrued market discount income as if the holder sold the Note for its fair
market value.
 
    In addition, a holder of a market discount obligation generally may only
deduct net interest expense on indebtedness incurred or maintained to purchase
or carry a market discount obligation to the extent that such expense exceeds
the portion of the market discount allocable to the days during the taxable year
on which such obligation was held by the holder. Any net interest expense which
is disallowed is generally deferred and deducted in the year of disposition of
the market discount obligation.
 
    A holder that acquired a Note at a market discount may elect to include the
market discount in income currently in the tax years to which it is
attributable. Such election, if made, will apply to all market discount
obligations acquired by the holder during or after the first taxable year to
which the election applies. If this election is made, the rules described above
requiring the recognition of ordinary interest income upon the disposition of a
Note and limiting the deduction for interest paid or accrued on indebtedness
incurred or maintained to purchase or carry market discount obligations do not
apply.
 
    Holders of Notes should consult their tax advisors regarding the application
of the market discount rules and the advisability of making the elections
described above.
 
    ACQUISITION PREMIUM.  If a holder acquired a Note after the initial Offering
and has an adjusted basis in such Note immediately after its purchase that (i)
is greater than the adjusted issue price of the Note and (ii) is less than or
equal to the sum of all amounts payable on the Note after the purchase date,
then such holder will be deemed to have acquired the Note at an acquisition
premium. The holder of a Note acquired at an acquisition premium is permitted to
reduce the amount of OID includible in gross income by the fraction, the
numerator of which is the excess of the adjusted basis of the Note immediately
after it is purchased over the adjusted issue price of the Note (I.E., the
acquisition premium) and the denominator of which is the excess of the sum of
all amounts payable on the Note after the purchase date over the Note's adjusted
issue price. Alternatively, the holder may elect to compute OID accruals by
treating the purchase as a purchase at original issuance and applying the
mechanics of the constant yield method.
 
    SALE, RETIREMENT OR OTHER TAXABLE DISPOSITION.  Gain or loss upon a sale or
other disposition of a Note will be measured by the difference between the sum
of the amount of cash and the fair market value of property received with
respect to such sale and the holder's adjusted tax basis in such Note. A
holder's adjusted tax basis in a Note generally will be equal to the portion of
the cost of the Unit allocated to the Note (i.e., in the case of an initial
purchaser in the Offering, the Note's issue price) or the purchase price of the
Note increased by the amount of OID or market discount that is included in such
holder's income prior to the date of sale or disposition and reduced by all
payments received by the holder with respect to the Note as of the date of sale
or other taxable disposition. Except as discussed below under "Market Discount,"
such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, and will be long-term
capital gain or loss if the holder held the Note for more than one year. In the
case of an individual holder of a Note, the maximum federal income tax rate
applicable to net long-term capital gains is twenty-eight percent (28%) if the
Note was held for greater than one year but less than eighteen months and twenty
percent (20%) if the Note was held for more than eighteen months.

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX ISSUES TO HOLDINGS, ENTERPRISES AND
  LCNI
 
    DEDUCTIBILITY OF ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT.  In addition to the other
potential limitations on the ability of an issuer of debt to deduct interest
(including the interest capitalization rules with respect to interest incurred
to construct certain types of property, including the Aladdin) certain issuers
of "applicable high-yield discount obligations" ("AHYDOs") are not permitted to
deduct interest attributable to OID on such obligations as it accrues. An AHYDO
is a debt instrument that (i) has a maturity date that is more than five years
from the date of issue, (ii) bears a yield to maturity that exceeds the sum of
(A) the applicable federal rate (the "AFR") in effect for the calendar month in
which the obligation is issued (5.84% for instruments issued in February, 1998),
plus (B) five percent, and (iii) has "significant original issue discount." A
debt instrument is deemed to be issued with "significant original issue
discount" if the aggregate amount which would be includible in gross income of a
holder with respect to such instrument for periods before the close of any
accrual period ending after the date five years after the date of issue exceeds
the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of interest required to be paid under the
instrument before the close of such accrual period and (ii) the product of the
issue price of such instrument and its yield to maturity. Based on this
definition, it is expected that the Notes will constitute AHYDOs.
 
    If an obligation is an AHYDO, to the extent any AHYDO limitations apply (see
below), the deduction of the "disqualified portion" of the OID is permanently
disallowed and the remainder of the OID is not deductible until it is actually
paid in cash or property (other than equity or debt of the issuer). In the case
of the Notes, the disqualified portion of the OID generally will be the yield to
maturity of the Notes minus the sum of the AFR plus six percent.
 
    Although the AHYDO limitations generally apply only to issuers of debt
instruments that are corporations, a special rule provides that when a
partnership (including an LLC treated as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes) issues AHYDOs, each partner (or member) is treated as issuing its
share of the AHYDO for purposes of determining the deductibility of such
partner's (member's) share of the interest (OID) expense on the AHYDO.
Accordingly, the AHYDO limitations will apply to the Notes to the extent that
the deductions of OID expense are attributable to the portion of the Notes
deemed to be issued by a corporate member of Holdings. As of the filing of the
Registration Statement, Holdings will have two corporate members, Enterprises
and LCNI, owning in the aggregate 50% of Holdings. Thus, 50% of the OID on the
Notes will be subject to the limitations on deductibility imposed by the AHYDO
rules. To the extent that additional corporations become members in Holdings or
if Holdings (or a successor obligor on the Notes whether in an initial public
offering or otherwise) becomes or is deemed to be a corporation, the AHYDO
limitations could apply to a larger portion or all of the OID on the Notes.
 
    As a result of the application of the AHYDO limitations, the corporate
members will be unable to deduct their share of the "disqualified portion" of
the OID on the Notes, and will be required to defer their deduction on their
share of the remaining OID until it is paid. The limitations on the
deductibility of the corporate members' share of the OID is expected to cause
the corporate members to have a greater tax liability during the term of the
Notes than if OID was currently deductible. Consequently, to the extent that the
corporate members have additional taxable income as a result of the AHYDO
limitations discussed above, Holdings will be required to distribute more cash
to the corporate members to pay their tax liability than if the AHYDO
limitations did not apply.
 
    Although there is considerable uncertainty, solely for purposes of the
dividends received deduction for corporations, the disqualified portion of the
OID attributable to the corporate members should be treated as a distribution of
dividends by the corporate members, pro rata in proportion to their percentage
interests, to corporate holders rather than interest income to the extent, if
any, that similar distributions by the corporate members with respect to their
stock would have been treated as dividends. Thus, subject to otherwise
applicable limitations, a corporate holder of a Note may be entitled to a
dividends received
 
                                      184
<PAGE>
deduction (generally at a 70% rate) with respect to the disqualified portion of
the accrued OID treated as a dividend.
 
    REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.  Each Certificated Note will contain a legend
stating that it was issued with OID and setting forth the issue date, the issue
price, the amount of OID and the yield to maturity. Holdings will report
annually to the Internal Revenue Service and to each holder the amount of OID
accrued with respect to such Note for that year.
 
INFORMATION REPORTING AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING
 
    Under certain circumstances, the failure of a holder to provide sufficient
information to establish that such holder is exempt from the backup withholding
provisions of the Code will subject such holder to backup withholding at a rate
of 31 percent. In general, backup withholding applies if a holder fails to
furnish a correct taxpayer identification number (social security number for
individuals), fails to report interest income in full, or fails to certify that
such holder has provided a correct taxpayer identification number and that the
holder is not subject to withholding. Any amount withheld from a payment to a
holder under the backup withholding rules is allowable as a credit against such
holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required
information is furnished to the IRS. Certain holders (including, among others,
corporations and foreign holders that comply with certain certification
requirements) generally are not subject to backup withholding. Holders should
consult their tax advisors as to their qualification for exemption from backup
withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
    Based on certain no action letters issued by the staff of the Commission to
third parties in unrelated transactions, the Issuers believe that New Notes
issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be offered for resale, resold or
otherwise transferred by holders thereof (other than (i) any holders who is an
"affiliate" of either of the Issuers within the meaning of Rule 405 under the
Securities Act or (ii) any broker-dealer that purchases Notes from the Issuers
to resell pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act ("Rule 144A") or any
other available exemption) without compliance with the registration and
prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that such New
Notes are acquired in the ordinary course of the holder's business and such
holders have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a
distribution of such New Notes and are not participating in, and do not intend
to participate in, the distribution of such New Notes. In addition, to comply
with the securities laws of certain jurisdictions, if applicable, the New Notes
may not be offered or sold unless they have been registered or qualified for
sale in such jurisdiction or an exemption from registration or qualification is
available and complied with. The Issuers have agreed, pursuant to the Note
Registration Rights Agreement and subject to certain specified limitations
therein, to register to qualify the New Notes for offer of sale under the
securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as are necessary to permit the
consummation of the Exchange Offer.
 
    Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account pursuant to
the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in
connection with any resale of such New Notes. This Prospectus, as it may be
amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by any person subject to
the Prospectus delivery requirements of the Commission, including any
participating broker-dealer, in connection with resales of New Notes received in
exchange for Old Notes where such Old Notes were acquired as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities. The Issuers have agreed
that they will make this Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to
any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale as such
broker-dealer may reasonably require.
 
    The Issuers will not receive any proceeds from any sale of New Notes by
broker-dealers. New Notes received by broker-dealers for their own account
pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more
transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through
the writing of options on the New Notes or a combination of such methods of
resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to
such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made
directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive
compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such
broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such New Notes. Any broker-dealer that
resells New Notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the
Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of
such New Notes may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the
Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of New Notes and any commission
or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting
compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by
acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a
broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the
meaning of the Securities Act.
 
    The Issuers have agreed to pay certain expenses incident to the Exchange
Offer and will indemnify the holders of the Old Notes (including any
broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To The Members of
    Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC and subsidiaries:
 
    We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of ALADDIN
GAMING HOLDINGS, LLC (a Nevada Limited-Liability Company) and SUBSIDIARIES, as
of December 31, 1997, and the related consolidated statements of members' equity
and cash flows for the period from inception (December 1, 1997) through December
31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's

                               DECEMBER 31, 1997
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
 
    Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC, a Nevada limited-liability company ("Gaming
Holdings"), was established on December 1, 1997. Gaming Holdings is owned by
Aladdin Gaming Enterprises, Inc. (25%), a Nevada corporation, Sommer
Enterprises, LLC (72%), a Nevada limited-liability company, and GAI, LLC (3%), a
Nevada limited-liability company. See Note 5 regarding the agreement to purchase
membership interests. Aladdin Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("Holdings"), indirectly holds a majority interest in Gaming Holdings.
The members of Holdings are the Trust Under Article Sixth u/w/o Sigmund Sommer
(the "Sommer Trust") which holds a 95% interest in Holdings, and GW Vegas, LLC,
a Nevada limited-liability company ("GW"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Trust
Company of the West ("TCW"), which holds a 5% interest in Holdings.
 
    Distributions shall be made in accordance with the respective ownership
interests subject to Gaming Holdings' operating agreement.
 
    Since the planned principal operations had not commenced as of December 31,
1997, Gaming Holdings has accounted for its operations as a development stage
company. There were no operations during the period from inception (December 1,
1997) through December 31, 1997 and hence no statement of income has been
prepared.
 
2. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Gaming
Holdings and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
 
    Gaming Holdings' wholly owned subsidiaries are Aladdin Capital Corp., a
Nevada corporation, and Aladdin Gaming, LLC, a Nevada limited-liability company.
 
3. INCOME TAXES
 
    Gaming Holdings will file federal information tax returns only. Each member
reports taxable income or loss on their respective tax returns.
 
4. PURCHASE OF RESTRICTED MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS
 
    Certain members of Gaming Holdings' executive management have purchased
unvested restricted membership interests in 4.75% of Gaming Holdings. These
membership interests will vest over approximately a four-year period. As of
December 31, 1997, none of these membership interests had vested.
 
5. COMMITMENTS
 
    On September 24, 1997 Gaming Holdings, the Sommer Trust, Holdings, Sommer
Enterprises, London Clubs International plc, a company registered in the United
Kingdom ("London Clubs") and London Clubs Nevada Inc. ("LCNI") entered into a
purchase agreement (subsequently amended) providing for the acquisition by LCNI
of 25 percent of Gaming Holdings' common membership interests for a purchase
price of $50.0 million. LCNI's obligation to purchase such membership interests
is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions.

6.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
Private Offering
 
    On February 26, 1998, Gaming Holdings, Aladdin Capital Corp. ("Capital" and,
together with Gaming Holdings, the "Issuers") and Aladdin Gaming Enterprises,
Inc. consummated a private offering (the "Offering") under Rule 144A of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1933. The private offering consisted of 221,500 units
(the "Units"), each unit consisting of (i) $1,000 principal amount at maturity
of 13 1/2% Senior Discount Notes due 2010 (the "Notes") of Gaming Holdings and
Capital and (ii) 10 Warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase 10 shares of Class B
non-voting Common Stock, no par value, of Aladdin Gaming Enterprises, Inc.
 
    The initial accreted value of the Notes is $519.40 per $1,000 principal
amount at maturity of the Notes. The Notes will mature on March 1, 2010. The
Notes will accrete at 13 1/2% (computed on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis)
based on the initial accreted value, calculated from February 26, 1998. Cash
interest on the Notes will not accrue prior to March 1, 2003. Thereafter, cash
interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 13 1/2% per annum based on the
accreted value at maturity of the Notes and will be payable semi-annually in
arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1,
2003.
 
    The Notes are secured by a first priority pledge of all amounts held in a
segregated construction disbursement account (the "Note Construction
Disbursement Account") and by a first priority pledge of all of the issued and
outstanding Series A Preferred Interests of Gaming Holdings in Aladdin Gaming,
LLC. The Note Construction Disbursement Account is comprised of approximately
$35 million remaining proceeds from the Offering, after the application of the
net proceeds to repay certain previously existing indebtedness and certain fees
and expenses.
 
    The Indenture to the Notes contains certain covenants that (subject to
certain exceptions) restrict the ability of the Issuers and certain of their
subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) make restricted payments; (ii) incur
additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock; (iii) incur liens; (iv) pay
dividends or make other distributions; (v) enter into mergers or consolidations;
(vi) enter into certain transactions with affiliates or (vii) enter into new
lines of business.
 
Equity Contributions
 
    On February 26, 1998, LCNI contributed $50.0 million ("London Clubs
Contribution") for 25% of Gaming Holdings common membership interests. Sommer
Enterprises, LLC contributed a portion of land in exchange for common membership
interests in Gaming Holdings. Aladdin Gaming Enterprises, Inc. contributed the
portion of land and $7.0 million of predevelopment costs, which were originally
received from Sommer Enterprises, Inc. and the net proceeds (approximately $15
million) allocable from the sale of the Warrants to Gaming Holdings in exchange
for 25% of the common membership interests in Gaming Holdings.

entertainment shopping mall and a 4,800 space car parking facility (the "Mall
Project"). The Mall Project is expected to be an integral part of the Aladdin
entertainment complex.
 
9. IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income." SFAS No. 130 requires companies to classify items of other
comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and display the
accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained
earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity sections of a statement of
financial position, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 130,
during the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 and has determined that such
adoption will not result in comprehensive income different from net income as
reported in the accompanying financial statements.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS no. 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 establishes additional
standards for segment reporting in financial statements and is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company currently operates
as one segment.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               DECEMBER 31, 1997
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
 
    Aladdin Capital Corp., a Nevada corporation ("Capital"), was established on
December 1, 1997. Capital is wholly owned by Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC, a
Nevada limited-liability company ("Gaming Holdings"). Aladdin Holdings, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Holdings"), indirectly holds a majority
interest in Gaming Holdings. The members of Holdings are the Trust Under Article
Sixth u/w/o Sigmund Sommer (the "Sommer Trust") which holds a 95% interest in
Holdings, and GW Vegas, LLC, a Nevada limited-liability company ("GW"), a wholly
owned subsidiary of Trust Company of the West ("TCW"), which holds a 5% interest
in Holdings.
 
    Since the planned principal operations had not commenced as of December 31,
1997, Capital has accounted for its operations as a development stage company.
There were no operations during the period from inception (December 1, 1997)
through December 31, 1997 and hence no statement of income has been prepared.
 
2. INCOME TAXES
 
    Capital accounts for income taxes using the liability method as set forth in
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME
TAXES. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are provided based on the
temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of
Capital's assets and liabilities.
 
    There was no income tax expense or benefit recorded for the period from
inception (December 1, 1997) through December 31, 1997 as Capital is a
development stage company and operations have not yet commenced.
 
3. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
Private Offering
 
    On February 26, 1998, Gaming Holdings, Capital (together with Gaming
Holdings, the "Issuers") and Aladdin Gaming Enterprises, Inc. consummated a
private offering (the "Offering") under Rule 144A of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1933. The private offering consisted of 221,500 units (the "Units"), each
unit consisting of (i) $1,000 principal amount at maturity of 13 1/2% Senior
Discount Notes due 2010 (the "Notes") of Gaming Holdings and Capital and (ii) 10
Warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase 10 shares of Class B non-voting Common
Stock, no par value, of Aladdin Gaming Enterprises, Inc.
 
    The initial accreted value of the Notes is $519.40 per $1,000 principal
amount at maturity of the Notes. The Notes will mature on March 1, 2010. The
Notes will accrete at 13 1/2% (computed on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis)
based on the initial accreted value, calculated from February 26, 1998. Cash
interest on the Notes will not accrue prior to March 1, 2003. Thereafter, cash
interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 13 1/2% per annum based on the
accreted value at maturity of the Notes and will be payable semi-annually in
arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1,
2003.
 
    The Notes are secured by a first priority pledge of all amounts held in a
segregated construction disbursement account (the "Note Construction
Disbursement Account") and by a first priority pledge of all of the issued and
outstanding Series A Preferred Interests of Gaming Holdings in Aladdin Gaming,
LLC. The Note Construction Disbursement Account is comprised of approximately
$35 million remaining proceeds from the Offering, after the application of the
net proceeds to repay certain previously existing indebtedness and certain fees
and expenses.
 
    The Indenture to the Notes contains certain covenants that (subject to
certain exceptions) restrict the ability of the Issuers and certain of their
subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) make restricted payments; (ii) incur
additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock; (iii) incur liens; (iv) pay
dividends or make other distributions; (v) enter into mergers or consolidations;
(vi) enter into certain transactions with affiliates or (vii) enter into new
lines of business.

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
 
    Aladdin Capital Corp., a Nevada corporation ("Capital"), was established on
December 1, 1997. Capital is wholly owned by Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC, a

Notes will accrete at 13 1/2% (computed on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis)
based on the initial accreted value, calculated from February 26, 1998. Cash
interest on the Notes will not accrue prior to March 1, 2003. Thereafter, cash
interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 13 1/2% per annum based on the
accreted value at maturity of the Notes and will be payable semi-annually in
arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1,
2003.
 
    The Notes are secured by a first priority pledge of all amounts held in a
segregated construction disbursement account (the "Note Construction
Disbursement Account") and by a first priority pledge of all of the issued and
outstanding Series A Preferred Interests of Aladdin Gaming, LLC held by Gaming
Holdings. As of March 31, 1998, the Note Construction Disbursement Account
comprised approximately $32.9 million remaining proceeds from the Offering,
after the application of the net proceeds to repay certain previously existing
indebtedness and certain fees and expenses.
 
    The Indenture to the Notes contains certain covenants that (subject to
certain exceptions) restrict the ability of the Issuers and certain of their
subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) make restricted payments; (ii) incur
additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock; (iii) incur liens; (iv) pay
dividends or make

4. IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income." SFAS No. 130 requires companies to classify items of other
comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and display the
accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained
earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity sections of a statement of
financial position, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 130,
during the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 and has determined that such
adoption will not result in comprehensive income different from net income.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS no. 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 establishes additional
standards for segment reporting in financial statements and is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company currently operates
as one segment.

    Since the planned principal operations had not commenced as of December 31,
1997, the Company has accounted for its operations as a development stage
company. There were no operations during the period from inception (January 24,
1997) through December 31, 1997 and hence no statement of income has been

    The Company will file federal information tax returns only. Each member
reports taxable income or loss on their respective tax returns.
 
3. COMMITMENTS

company for provision of approximately $80.0 million of financing to obtain
gaming and other specified equipment. The financing will be comprised of $60.0
million of operating leases and $20.0 million in loans.
 
    The Company has entered into a commitment letter with certain bank lenders
for the provision of a bank credit facility. The facility will consist of three

exhausted and certain other conditions to disbursement have been satisfied. As

    The Term B loan is for a maximum term of 8.5 years from the date of funding
and the Term C loan is for a maximum of 10 years. The Term B loan bears interest
at rate of 7.883% until the funds are utilized for the project at which time the
rate increases to 9.383%. The Term C loan bears interest at a rate of 8.485%
until the funds are utilized for the project at which time the rate increases to
10.485%. In addition to quarterly interest payments, each loan has various
principal payment requirements once the Aladdin is completed and operating.
Except in the case of defaults, no principal repayments are required prior to
the opening of the Aladdin.

    Approximately 12.4 acres of land was deeded to the Company on February 26,
1998, with an obligation to transfer such land to Aladdin Bazaar, LLC at a

8. IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income." SFAS No. 130 requires companies to classify items of other
comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and display the
accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained
earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity sections of a statement of
financial position, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 130,
during the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 and has determined that such
adoption will not result in comprehensive income different from net income as
reported in the accompanying financial statements.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS no. 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 establishes additional
standards for segment reporting in financial statements and is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company currently operates
as one segment.

    On 25 February 1998 the Group was awarded a licence to operate a casino in
the Gauteng Province of South Africa.
 
    On 26 February 1998 the Company and the Aladdin Gaming Corporation entered

the interim dividend of 2.625 pence (1997: 2.625 pence) net per ordinary share
paid on 30 January 1998, makes a total of 6.925 pence (1997: 8.25 pence) net per

Schroder Investment Management
Limited...............................     18.08%
Jupiter Asset Management..............      7.68%
Lloyds TSB Group plc..................      3.70%
</TABLE>
 
SHARE CAPITAL
 
    Changes to the share capital of the Company are set out in note 17 to the
financial statements.
 
    Approval will be sought at the annual general meeting to renew the authority
granted to the directors to allot unissued ordinary shares in the capital of the
Company and to obtain authority to allot shares for cash otherwise than to
existing shareholders pro-rata to their holdings.
 
    Resolution 7 will renew the directors' authority to allot relevant
securities up to an aggregate nominal amount of L2,423,927 representing 33 per
cent of the current issued share capital (being 48,478,551 ordinary shares).
 
    Resolution 8 is a Special Resolution to renew the directors' authority under
Section 95 of the Companies Act 1985 to allot a limited number of shares for
cash up to an aggregate nominal amount of L367,261 representing 5 per cent of
the current issued ordinary share capital of the Company (being 7,345,235
ordinary shares).
 
    The proposed authorities conform with the guidelines issued by the
institutional investment protection bodies to ensure that existing shareholders'
interests are safeguarded and, if granted, will expire at the earlier of the
conclusion of the annual general meeting in 1999 and the date 15 months from the
date the requisite authorities are granted.
 
LONG TERM PERFORMANCE PLAN

                         DIRECTOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
 
SUPPLIER PAYMENT TERMS
 
    It is the Group's policy and practice to agree appropriate payment terms and
conditions individually with its suppliers, having regard to the spirit of the
CBI's Prompt Payers Code.
 
    The average number of days outstanding for trade creditors at 29 March 1998
was 34 (1997: 32). This figure takes into account the overseas operations, but
excludes the effect of certain demand payments.
 
EMPLOYMENT OF DISABLED PERSONS
 
    The Group recognises its obligations towards disabled persons and endeavours
to provide as much employment as the demands of the Group's operations and the
abilities of disabled persons allow.
 
    Applications for employment from disabled persons are studied with care and
every effort is made to find them, and any existing employees who become
disabled, appropriate work and training where it is needed.
 
EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT
 
    The Group is committed wherever possible to employee consultation and
thereby to their involvement in the development of the Group's operations.
 
    In January 1998 the Company introduced a Savings Related Share Option
Scheme. 828 employees participated in the scheme representing approximately 46
per cent of those eligible.
 
YEAR 2000
 
    The Group has conducted an assessment of the principal software in use
within the business to identify modifications required to ensure "year 2000"
compliance. All business critical systems have been found to be compliant. The
modification or replacement of non compliant systems will be continued during
1998/99.
 
CHARITABLE DONATIONS
 
    Charitable donations amounting to L33,000 (1997: L48,000) were paid during
the year.
 
TAXATION STATUS
 
    The Company is not a close company for taxation purposes.
 
AUDITORS
 
    Price Waterhouse have expressed their willingness to continue as auditors
and a resolution concerning their re-appointment will be proposed at the
forthcoming annual general meeting.
 
    It has been announced that Price Waterhouse plans to merge with Coopers &

                      REPORT OF THE REMUNERATION COMMITTEE
 
TERMS OF REFERENCE
 
    The remuneration committee comprises all the non-executive directors of the
Company and is chaired by Mr R R C Hobbs. It is responsible for deciding on all
elements of the remuneration of the executive directors, including base
salaries, performance related bonuses, share based incentive schemes and other
benefits.
 
COMPENSATION POLICY
 
    The compensation of the executive directors is set by the remuneration
committee of the Board. It is the policy of the committee to provide an overall
remuneration and benefits package to enable it to attract and retain a high
calibre group of senior management who hold the necessary White Certificates'
required under the Gaming Act and who are capable of delivering the strategic
objectives of the Group on behalf of the shareholders.
 
    The Company has complied throughout the year with Section A of the Best
Practice Provisions annexed to the London Stock Exchange Listing Rules. In
framing its compensation policy, the committee has given full consideration to
Section B of the best practice provisions annexed to the Listing Rules of the
London Stock Exchange.
 
    The remuneration of the directors is shown in note 5 to the financial
statements.
 
SALARIES
 
    These reflect the executives' experience, responsibility and commitment.
Basic salary levels are measured against those paid in comparable gaming
companies.
 
    The executive directors' current salaries were agreed on 1 October 1994 and
are not subject to review until September 1998.
 
BONUS AND INCENTIVE SCHEMES
 
    The Group is committed to the principle of relating a substantial proportion
of the total remuneration of senior management to the Group's financial
performance and has established various annual incentive bonus schemes covering
both executive directors and senior management.
 
    As notified in the circular accompanying this annual report, there is
submitted for shareholder approval a long term performance plan, which applies
from 1998 onwards to all of the executive directors, as well as to certain other
senior management. This new plan will replace grants under the Company's
executive share option scheme for those participants.
 
    The new plan is designed to align the interests of executive directors and
senior management with those of shareholders, to encourage increased
shareholding to assist with the attraction and retention of individuals who will
be crucial to the Group's success in the coming years and to reward sustained
good performance over a period of time.
 
    In January 1998, the Company's savings related share scheme was introduced
for all UK employees in which the executive directors also participate.
 
    Details of the options granted to executive directors under the executive
share option scheme and savings related option scheme and the options exercised
during the year are shown in note 6 to the financial statements.

                REPORT OF THE REMUNERATION COMMITTEE (CONTINUED)
 
PENSIONS
 
    Mr A L Goodenough, Mr G B C Hardy and Mr R A C Ramm have personal pension
arrangements to which the Group makes an annual contribution.
 
    Mr P Byrne is an executive member of the main London Clubs contributory
pension scheme.
 
    None of the non-executive directors participate in the Company pension
arrangements nor do they receive any contribution towards pension provision.
 
SERVICE CONTRACTS
 
    Mr A L Goodenough, Mr P Byrne and Mr G B C Hardy have service contracts
which may be terminated on two years' notice.
 
    Mr R A C Ramm has a service contract for a fixed initial term until 29
December 2000. The contract may be terminated thereafter on one year's notice.
 
    In establishing the notice periods prescribed within the directors' service
contracts, the committee were mindful of the need to protect shareholders'
interests by ensuring continuity of appropriately experienced and licensed
management. In view of the competitive environment and the need to attract and
retain executives of the highest calibre, the committee continues to consider
the relevant contract periods to be appropriate.
 
OTHER BENEFITS
 
    Each executive director is provided with a fully expensed car, permanent
health insurance, life assurance and family medical insurance.

<PAGE>
                              CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
 
    The Board complies with the recommendations of the Code of Best Practice
("the Code") issued in 1992 by the Committee on the Financial Aspects of
Corporate Governance (the Cadbury Committee). The Group complies, and has fully
complied throughout the accounting period, with all the current requirements of
the Code and the annual report includes all the disclosures currently required
by the Code.
 
GOING CONCERN
 
    The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group
have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable
future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in
preparing the financial statements.
 
INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS
 
    The directors are required to ensure that the Group's systems of internal
control are appropriate given the scale and type of risk being managed, the
likelihood of the risk materialising and the cost of implementing the controls
necessary to manage the risk. The existence of appropriate internal controls
provides reasonable assurance that the Group's operations are efficiently and
effectively managed, that internal financial controls are in place and that the
Group complies with its legal and regulatory obligations. However, any such
system can only provide reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against
misstatement or loss.
 
    The Company's internal financial control and monitoring procedures include:
 
    - clear responsibilities on the part of management for the maintenance of
      appropriate financial controls and the production of accurate and timely
      financial management information;
 
    - the control of key financial risks through authorisation levels,
      segregation of duties and written procedures manuals where relevant;
 
    - the preparation of detailed monthly budgets and the comparison by
      management of trading results and cash flows against budget on a regular
      basis; and
 
    - the review of internal financial controls by the audit committee in
      consultation with the external auditors.
 
    The Group operates in a highly regulated environment and an independent
compliance function reporting to the compliance committee has been developed to
ensure adherence with all local and national requirements and the Group's own
gaming procedures. Audits of all gaming operations take place at regular
intervals and their recommendations are presented to the compliance committee.
 
    The Board has reviewed the effectiveness of the Group system of internal
financial controls for the period covered by the financial statements. In
addition, the gaming activities of the Group are also subject to review by the
Gaming Board in the UK and by the relevant government authorities for the
overseas operations.
 
    The Group has a well defined operational/management hierarchy and
organisational structure. Terms of reference exist for all principal committees
within the Group and the roles and responsibilities of senior executives and key
members of staff are clearly defined.
 
THE BOARD
 
    The Board currently comprises four executive directors and three
non-executive directors. The Board meets regularly throughout the year and has a
formal schedule of matters reserved for its decision and approval including
responsibility for the overall Group strategy, approval of major capital
expenditure,
 
                                      A-10
<PAGE>
financing arrangements, the establishing and monitoring of internal controls and
compliance with gaming regulations.
 
    The Board has also established separate audit, compliance, remuneration and
nominations committees, the membership and main responsibilities of which are
set out below:
 
AUDIT COMMITTEE
 
    The members of this committee are Mr R R C Hobbs (Chairman), Sir Timothy
Kitson and Mr R A Wood. The audit committee meets as required but not less than
twice a year. Its responsibilities include a critical view of the annual and
interim financial statements (including the Board's statement on internal
control in the Group's Annual Report) prior to their submission to the Board for
approval.
 
COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE
 
    The members of this committee are Mr W A Galston OBE (Chairman and non-Board
member), Mr R R C Hobbs, Sir Timothy Kitson, Mr R A Wood and Mr R A C Ramm. The
compliance committee meets as required but not less than four times per year.
The committee's principal responsibility is to satisfy itself, through the
Group's compliance function, that appropriate and effective procedures exist
within the Group to ensure compliance with all gaming laws, regulations and
guidelines.
 
REMUNERATION COMMITTEE
 
   
    Details of the remuneration committee, including membership are set out in
its report on pages 20 and 21.
    
 
NOMINATIONS COMMITTEE
 
    The members of this committee are Sir Timothy Kitson (Chairman), Mr A L
Goodenough, Mr R R C Hobbs and Mr R A Wood. The committee's role is to identify
and nominate candidates for future Board appointments for consideration by the
whole Board.

                    STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
 
    The directors are required by the Companies Act 1985 to prepare financial
statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state
of affairs of the Company and the Group as at the end of the financial year and
of the profit or loss for the financial year.
 
   
    The directors have prepared the financial statements on pages A-14 to A-35
on a going concern basis and consider that the Group has used appropriate
accounting policies, consistently applied and supported by reasonable and
prudent judgements and estimates and that all accounting standards which they
consider to be applicable have been followed.
    
 
    The directors have responsibility for ensuring that the Group keeps
accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial
position of the Group and which enable them to ensure that the financial
statements comply with the Companies Act 1985.
 
    The directors have general responsibility for taking such steps as are
reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Group and to prevent and
detect fraud and other irregularities.
 
  REPORT BY THE AUDITORS TO THE DIRECTORS OF LONDON CLUBS INTERNATIONAL PLC ON
                          CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTERS
 
   
    In addition to our audit of the financial statements we have reviewed your
statement on pages A-10 and A-11 concerning the Group's compliance with the
paragraphs of the Cadbury Code of Best Practice specified for our review by the
London Stock Exchange and the adoption of the going concern basis in preparing
the financial statements. The objective of our review is to draw attention to
non-compliance with Listing Rules 12.43(j) and 12.43(v), if not otherwise
disclosed.
    
 
BASIS OF OPINION
 
    We carried out our review having regard to guidance issued by the Auditing
Practices Board. That guidance does not require us to perform the additional
work necessary to, and we do not, express any opinion on the effectiveness of
either the Group's system of internal financial control or corporate governance
procedures nor on the ability of the Group to continue in operational existence.
 
OPINION
 
   
    In our opinion, your statements on internal financial control and on going
concern on page A-10, have provided the disclosures required by the Listing
Rules referred to above and are consistent with the information which came to
our attention as a result of our audit work on the financial statements.
    
 
   
    In our opinion, based on enquiry of certain directors and officers of the
Company and examination of relevant documents, your statement on pages A-10 and
A-11 appropriately reflects the Group's compliance with the other aspects of the
Code specified for our review by Listing Rule 12.43(j).

    The following represents the statutory audit report of Price Waterhouse,
London, whose audit was performed in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in the United Kingdom (UK). The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with UK generally accepted accounting principles.
    
 
    REPORT OF THE AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF LONDON CLUBS INTERNATIONAL PLC
 
   
    We have audited the financial statements on pages A-14 to A-35 which have
been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the
revaluation of certain fixed assets, and the accounting policies set out on
pages A-19 and A-20.
    
 
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND AUDITORS
 
   
    As described on page A-12, the Company's directors are responsible for the
preparation of the financial statements. It is our responsibility to form an
independent opinion, based on our audit, on those statements and to report our
opinion to you.
    
 
BASIS OF OPINION
 
    We conducted our audit in accordance with Auditing Standards issued by the
Auditing Practices Board. An audit includes examination on a test basis of
evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. It
also includes an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by
the directors in the preparation of the financial statements and of whether the
accounting policies are appropriate to the Company's circumstances, consistently
applied and adequately disclosed.
 
    We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and
explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with
sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements
are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other
irregularity or error. In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall
adequacy of the presentation of information in the financial statements.
 
OPINION
 
    In our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the
state of affairs of the Company and of the Group as at 29 March 1998 and of the
profit and cash flows of the Group for the period then ended and have been
properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985.

                       Notes to the Financial Statements
 
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
A  ACCOUNTING CONVENTION
 
    The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention as modified by the revaluation of short leasehold properties and in
accordance with applicable accounting standards.
 
B  CONSOLIDATION
 
    The consolidated accounts include the results and net assets of the Company
and its subsidiary and associated undertakings. Undertakings acquired are
consolidated from the effective date of acquisition. Goodwill arising on the
acquisition of subsidiary or associated undertakings is set off directly against
reserves.
 
C   TURNOVER
 
    Turnover represents gaming income and also includes management contract
income, membership subscriptions and catering revenues.
 
D  FIXED ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION
 
    Fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation.
 
    The short leasehold properties from which the Group conducts its casino
operations are carried at open market value on an existing use and fully
operational basis, including the benefit of casino licences. Formal professional
revaluations of the UK casinos are undertaken on at least a triennial basis and
the resultant valuation is included in the balance sheet unless the surplus or
deficit is immaterial.
 
    The directors review the valuations each year and if, in their opinion,
there is any diminution in value, it is charged either to the revaluation
reserve or the profit and loss account as appropriate. In the directors'
opinion, on the basis of this review, the residual disposal value of the
properties and the benefit of casino licences attaching to those properties is
at least equal to their book value.
 
    All leases have an unexpired term of less than 20 years and the values of
the leaseholds excluding the benefit of the casino licences are depreciated over
the remaining term of the lease. Other assets are depreciated over their
estimated useful lives on the following bases:
 
    Fixtures and fittings--10 per cent to 20 per cent straight line.
 
    Motor vehicles--25 per cent reducing balance.
 
E   CAPITALISATION OF INTEREST ON PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT
 
    Interest expenses associated with the construction of a casino over an
extended period, prior to the commencement of business, are capitalised within
fixed assets. Currently only the interest costs associated with the construction
of the Aladdin hotel and casino complex qualify under this policy. No interest
is capitalised in respect of either ongoing refurbishment or the transfer of
business premises.
 
F   INVESTMENTS
 
    Investments, including investments in subsidiary and associated
undertakings, are valued individually at the lower of cost and directors'
valuation.

                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
G   TAXATION
 
    The charge for taxation is based on the profit for the period and takes into
account taxation deferred because of timing differences between the treatment of
certain items for taxation and accounting purposes, unless there is reasonable
probability that the deferred tax will not crystallise in the foreseeable
future.
 
H  STOCKS
 
    Stocks, which comprise consumables, are valued at the lower of cost and
estimated net realisable value.
 
I   TRADE DEBTORS
 
    Trade debtors include debtors of the overseas casino operations (where
deferred payment is permitted) net of provisions raised for any amounts
considered unlikely to be recoverable.
 
    In the UK, full provision is charged to the profit and loss account for all
unpaid gaming cheques net of any amounts recovered up to the date of approval of
the accounts.
 
J   EXCHANGE RATES
 
    Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates
ruling at the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the year end
exchange rate. The results of overseas operations are translated at average
exchange rates.
 
    Exchange differences arising from the translation of the opening net assets
of overseas subsidiaries and any foreign currency borrowings used to acquire
overseas assets are dealt with as a movement in reserves. All other exchange
differences are taken to the profit and loss account.
 
K  LEASES
 
    The rental charges in respect of operating leases are taken to the profit
and loss account on a straight line basis over the life of the lease.
 
L   PENSION COSTS
 
    The Group operates a pension scheme covering the majority of employees.
Pension costs are assessed in accordance with the advice of independent
actuaries. Variations from the regular pensions cost are spread on a systematic
basis over the estimated average remaining service lives of employees. The
scheme is funded by payments to trustee administered funds completely
independent of the Group's finances.

    For the purposes of the segmental analysis all head office costs have been
allocated to Europe.
 
    With the exception of the investment in the associated undertaking, Aladdin
    Gaming Holdings LLC (which is based in the United States), substantially all
    of the net assets of the Group are located in Europe. Substantially all of
    the Group's turnover, operating profit and net assets relate to the
    operation of casinos.

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
    Earnings per ordinary share for each year have been calculated on profit on
ordinary activities after taxation divided by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares in issue during the year.
 
    Fully diluted earnings per share, taking into account all options over the
Company's shares, is not materially different to basic earnings per share.
 
    The earnings and weighted average number of shares used in the calculation
of earnings per share were as follows:

</TABLE>
 
    Earnings per share before exceptional bid costs have been calculated as 13.8
pence per share (1997: 16.8 pence per share). This figure is based upon the
profit after taxation but before exceptional bid costs, of L20,071,000 (1997:
L23,735,000) and on 145,845,000 (1997: 141,557,000) ordinary shares. The
exceptional bid costs, amounting to L202,000 (1997: L1,080,000), represent fees
and other expenses incurred in respect of the bid for Capital Corporation plc.
No tax credit is assumed to arise on the bid costs.

11. TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS (CONTINUED)
    The short leasehold properties from which the Group conducts its casino
operations are carried at open market value on an existing use and fully
operational basis, including the benefit of casino licences.
 
    The directors included the Group's UK short leasehold properties as at 30
March 1997 at the amount determined by G L Hearn (Chartered Surveyors). However,
consequent to the proposed changes in the rates of gaming duty outlined in the
Chancellor's Budget Statement, the directors have reassessed the carrying value
and reduced the overall valuation as at 29 March 1998 by L20.0 million. This
includes an adjustment of L4.0 million to the original cost of the London Park
Tower leasehold property due to the fact that the deferred consideration thereon
is no longer assumed to be payable. The next independent valuation of the
properties will be in March 2000.
 
    The value of short leasehold properties on an historical cost basis
comprises assets with a cost of L128.6 million (1997: L131.9 million) and
accumulated depreciation of L11.3 million (1997: L10.0 million). The net book
value of the short leasehold properties, on an historical cost basis, is L117.3
million (1997: L121.9 million). Assets in the course of construction relate to
the cost of the development of 14 Old Park Lane and 50 St James's Street. When
construction is complete, these costs will be transferred to the appropriate
asset categories. No depreciation is charged during the period of construction.
 
    No provision has been made for the potential liability to taxation on
capital gains which could arise if the short leasehold properties held as fixed
assets were sold at the amounts at which they have been revalued and included in
these accounts as the directors have no current intentions of selling these
assets with gaming licences attached.

    (a) On 26 February 1998, London Clubs Nevada Inc (a 100 per cent subsidiary
undertaking of the Group) acquired 25 per cent of the issued share capital of
Aladdin Gaming Holdings LLC ("Aladdin"). Aladdin is incorporated in the United
States and owns a site for a hotel and casino complex in Las Vegas. The complex
is presently being redeveloped and is scheduled to open in 2000. Aladdin has
been classified as an associated undertaking in the financial statements in view
of the proportion of shares held by the Group and its representation on the
Board of that company.
 
    The Group's investment in the share capital of Aladdin represents L31.1
million in respect of the cost of the shares less goodwill of L5.9 million which
has been set against reserves and foreign exchange adjustments of L0.4 million.
The Group's share of the net assets of Aladdin at 26 February 1998 comprised
fixed assets (comprising land and construction in progress) with a fair value of
L29.2 million, cash of L46.9 million, sundry debtors of L0.3 million and long
term debt with a value of L51.2 million.
 
    The Company received a commitment fee amounting to L1.8 million from Aladdin
in relation to assistance with the loan finance and recharged a further L1.8
million of legal and professional fees incurred by the Company on behalf of
Aladdin.
 
    During the period from 26 February 1998 to 30 March 1998, the Group's share
of interest capitalised in respect of borrowings to finance the construction of
the Aladdin hotel and casino complex amounted to L0.3 million.
 
    There was no profit or loss in the period in relation to the operating
results of Aladdin. The last audited accounts were as at 31 December 1997 which
indicated that the business had no distributable reserves.
 
    (b) The Group has an investment in Abela Tourism and Development Company SAL
("ATDC"). ATDC is incorporated in Lebanon and has a management concession for
the Casino du Liban complex in Beirut. The Group also holds floating rate notes
issued by Casino du Liban which have a nominal value of US$6.0 million.
 
    (c) The Group has an investment in Tortello Investments (No. 15) Pty Limited
("Tortello"). Tortello is incorporated in South Africa and holds the gaming
licence for the Emerald Safari Resort in Gauteng Province. The Group has a
management contract for the operation of the casino which is currently under
development.

    The bank loan is secured by a fixed charge over the freehold at 50 St
James's Street together with a floating charge over all assets of the Company
and all its present and future UK subsidiaries.
 
    On 11 April 1997, the Company completed a supplemental agreement, whereby
all outstanding facilities were replaced by a Revolving Credit Facility. This
facility is available until 11 April 2002. Interest is payable at LIBOR plus
0.65 per cent with a small variable adjustment. Advances are available in
foreign currencies which may be used to finance overseas investments. Until 29
September 1998, a certain proportion of the loan is subject to an interest rate
cap based on a LIBOR rate of 9 per cent.
 
    Under an agreement dated 30 June 1997 the Guaranteed Senior Notes were
issued to fund the Group's investment in Aladdin Gaming Holdings LLC. The
nominal value of the notes is US$50 million on which interest is payable at 7.74
per cent.
 
    Deferred consideration is payable based upon the cumulative results of
Zealcastle Limited for the three years ending 1 October 1998 consequent to the
purchase agreement for that company dated

2 October 1995. Full provision was made as at 30 March 1997 for the maximum
amount payable. However, based upon the results of the London Park Tower casino
and taking into account the likely impact of the proposed change in the rates
and bandings for gaming duty (as outlined in the Chancellor's Budget Statement),
the targets are unlikely to be met. The provision has been written back and
offset against the cost of the London Park Tower leasehold property (which was
the main asset acquired as part of the Zealcastle acquisition).

                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
24 PENSIONS
 
    The principal pension scheme operated by the Group is a defined benefits
scheme, providing benefits based on final pensionable salary. The assets of this
scheme are held in a separate trustee administered fund.
 
    The latest formal actuarial valuation of the fund was at 31 March 1996 using
the projected unit method. The assumptions which have the most significant
effect on the results of the valuation are the relative rates of return on the
investments of the fund compared with increases in pay and pensions. It was
assumed for this purpose that, on average, the annual return on investments
would exceed increases in pay by 4 per cent until 31 March 1997 and by 2 per
cent thereafter and would exceed increases in pensions by 4 per cent.
 
    At the date of the latest formal actuarial valuation, the market value of
the assets of the fund was L31.3 million. The valuation showed that the assets
represented 111 per cent of the benefits that have accrued to members. Taking
this surplus into account, the actuary has recommended a future contribution
rate for the Group as follows: from 1 April 1996 to 31 March 1999 10.0 per cent
of pensionable pay; from 1 April 1999 to 31 March 2005 11.9 per cent of
pensionable pay and from 1 April 2005 15.0 per cent of pensionable pay. Death in
service benefits, professional fees and other expenses are paid by the pension
scheme.
 
    The pension charge for the year was L1,199,000 (1997: L1,122,000) which was
paid to the fund.
 
    In addition the Company makes contributions in respect of individual
personal pension schemes. The annual contribution for the year was L126,000
(1997: L106,000).
 
25 GUARANTEES AND FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS
 
    As part of the financing arrangements in connection with the development of
the Aladdin Hotel and Casino, the Company and the Sommer Family Trust have
jointly and severally given a Completion and Performance Guarantee which applies
during the construction period. In addition, through a Keep Well Agreement, the
Company and Aladdin Holdings LLC will have a joint and several contingent
obligation to provide further equity and/or to make accelerated payments of up
to US$150.0 million should certain financial covenants be breached.
 
    Although the obligations under the Completion and Performance Guarantee and
Keep Well Agreement are joint and several, it is agreed under the terms of a
Contribution Agreement that each partys liability will be pro-rata to its
initial shareholding in Aladdin Gaming Holdings LLC which is 75 per cent for the
Sommer Family Trust (through Aladdin Holdings LLC and other entities controlled
by the Trust) and 25 per cent for the Company. The Company has certain remedies
should the Sommer Family Trust or Aladdin Holdings LLC default in its
obligations, including rights over the Sommer Family Trust's equity interest in
Aladdin Gaming Holdings LLC.
 
    The construction risk has been mitigated through a fixed price construction
contract guaranteed as to timing and price by the architect and general
contractor. Aladdin Gaming LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Aladdin Gaming
Holdings LLC, has access to secured senior credit facilities of up to US$410.0
million.
 
26 SUBSEQUENT EVENT
 
    On 12 June 1998 the Group announced the sale of LCL (France) S.A. et Cie,
which owns and operates the Carlton Casino in Cannes, to Groupe Partouche.

                                    PART II
 
                   INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS
 
ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
    The Articles of Organization of Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC ("Holdings")
limit the liability of its members and managers to the fullest extent permitted
by Nevada law and further provide that the expenses of members and managers
incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding, involving
alleged acts or omissions of such member or manager of the company, must be paid
by the company as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of
the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an unsecured undertaking by or
on behalf of the member or manager to repay the amount if it is ultimately
determined by a court that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the company.
Nevada law permits limited-liability companies to indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (except in an action by or in the right of the company) by reason
of the fact that he is or was a manager, member employee or agent of the
company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a manager,
member, employee or agent of another limited-liability company, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorney's
fees, judgments fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in
good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the company and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. This
same permissible indemnification is not allowed as to any action or suit by or
in the right of the company if the person has been adjudged by a court (after
exhaustion of all appeals) to be liable to the company or for amounts paid in
settlement to the company, unless and only to the extent that a court determines
upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person
is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses, as the court
deems proper. To the extent that a manager, member, employee or agent of the
company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action,
suit or proceeding described above, or in the defense of any claim, issue or
matter therein, Nevada law requires that he must be indemnified by the company
against expenses, including attorney's fees, actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection with that defense.
 
    The Articles of Incorporation of Aladdin Capital Corp. ("Capital") provide
that no officer or director will be personally liable to Capital or any
stockholder for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer,
except for (i) acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or
a knowing violation of the law, or (ii) the payment of distributions in
violation of Nevada Revised Statutes Section78.300.
 
    Additionally, Capital's Bylaws limit the liability of its directors and
officers (and, by action of the board of directors, its employees and other
persons) to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. If the Nevada law is
subsequently amended to permit further limitation of personal liability of
directors and officers the liability of Capital's directors and officers will be
eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, as amended.
Nevada law permits corporations to indemnify any person who was or is a party or
is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(except in an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorney's fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. This
same
 
                                      II-1
<PAGE>
permissible indemnification is not allowed as to any action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation if the person has been adjudged by a court (after
exhaustion of all appeals) to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid
in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that a court
determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case,
the person if fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses, as
the court deems proper. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in the defense or
any claim, issue or matter, therein, Nevada law requires that he must be
indemnified by the corporation against expenses, including attorney's fees,
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with that defense.
 
    Capital's Bylaws further provide that Capital may purchase and maintain
insurance or make other financial arrangements for such indemnification and that
such indemnification shall continue as to any indemnitee who has ceased to be a
director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors and
administrators.
 
    The inclusion of the permissive indemnification provision in Capital's
Bylaws may have the effect or reducing likelihood of derivative litigation
against directors and may discourage or deter stockholders or management from
bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their duty of care, even
though such an action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited Capital and
its stockholders.
 
    Insofar as imdemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors,
officers or persons controlling the registrants pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, the Issuers have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
 
    Pursuant to the registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights
Agreement") relating to the 13 1/2% Senior Discount Notes due 2010, the holders
of such securities and certain underwriters, broker dealers and the Initial
Purchasers (as defined herein) have agreed to indemnify the directors, officers
and controlling persons of the registrants against certain liabilities, costs
and expenses that may be incurred in connection with the registration of such
securities, to the extent that such liabilities, costs and expense that may be
incurred in connection with the registration of such securities arise from an
omission or untrue statement contained in information provided to the
registrants by the holders of such securities, underwriters, broker dealers or
Initial Purchasers.
 
    The Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 18, 1998 among Holdings,
Capital and Aladdin Gaming Enterprises Inc. (collectively, the "Unit Issuers")
and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith Incorporated, Credit Suisse First
Boston Corporation, CIBC Oppenheiner Corp. and Scotia Capital Markets (USA) Inc.
(the "Initial Purchasers"), contains provisions by which the Initial Purchasers
agree to indemnify the Unit Issuers (including their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents and controlling persons) against certain
liabilities.

ITEM 22. UNDERTAKINGS.
 
    (a) The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake:
 
        (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
    a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement;
 
            (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
       Securities Act of 1933;
 
            (ii) to reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after
       the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent
       post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
       aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in
       the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase
       or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
       the securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and
       any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering
       range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
       Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in
       volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum
       aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
       Fee" table in the effective registration statement;
 
           (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of
       distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration STatement or
       any material change to such information in the Registration STatement.
 
        (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
    Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
    a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
    the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
    initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.
 
        (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
    any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
    termination of the offering.
 
        (4) To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to
    include any financial statements required by Rule 3-19 of Regulation S-X at
    the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering.
 
    (b) That insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrants of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrants will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
 
    (c) The registrants hereby undertake to respond to requests for information
that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b),
11 or 13 of Form S-4, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to
send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt
means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the
effective date of this Registration Statement through the date of responding to
the request.
 
    (d) The registrants hereby undertake to supply by means of a post-effective
amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being
acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the
Registration Statement when it became effective.

<PAGE>


Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Issuers
shall promptly commence the Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such
Exchange Offer to enable each Holder eligible and electing to exchange Transfer
Restricted Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder (a) is
not an affiliate of the Issuers within the meaning of Rule 405 under the 1933
Act, (b) is not a broker-dealer tendering Transfer Restricted Securities
acquired directly from the Issuers for its own account, (c) acquired the
Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder's business and (d) has
no arrangements or understandings with any Person to participate in the Exchange
Offer for the purpose of distributing the Exchange Securities) and to transfer
such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or
restrictions under the 1933 Act and under state securities or blue sky laws.

                  In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall:

                           (a)      mail or cause to be mailed as promptly as 
reasonably practicable to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming part of
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter
of transmittal and related documents;

                           (b) keep the Exchange Offer open for acceptance for a
period of not less than 30

calendar days after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders (or longer
if required by applicable law) (such period referred to herein as the "Exchange
Period");

                           (c)      utilize the services of the Depositary for 
the Exchange Offer;

                           (d)      permit Holders to withdraw tendered Transfer
Restricted Securities at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time), on the
second to last business day of the Exchange Period, by sending to the
institution specified in the notice, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission
or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of
Transfer Restricted Securities delivered for exchange, and a statement that such
Holder is withdrawing such Holder's election to have such Securities exchanged;

                           (e) notify each Holder that any Transfer Restricted
Security not tendered will

remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest, but will not retain any
rights under this Agreement (except in the case of the Initial Purchasers and
Participating Broker-Dealers as provided herein); and

                           (f)      otherwise comply in all respects with all 
applicable laws relating to the Exchange Offer.

                  If, prior to consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Initial
Purchasers hold any Securities acquired by them and having the status of an
unsold allotment in the initial distribution and determine upon advice of
external counsel that it is ineligible to participate in the Exchange Offer, as
soon as practicable upon receipt by the Issuers of a written request from such
Initial Purchaser, the Issuers shall issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser
in exchange (the "Private Exchange") for the Securities held by such Initial
Purchaser, a like principal amount of debt securities of the Issuers, that are
identical (except that such securities shall bear appropriate transfer
restrictions) to the Exchange Securities (the "Private Exchange Securities").


                                       6
<PAGE>


                  The Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities
shall be issued under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture identical in all
material respects to the Indenture and which, in either case, has been qualified
under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "TIA"), or is exempt from
such qualification and shall provide that the Exchange Securities shall not be
subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture but that the
Private Exchange Securities shall be subject to such transfer restrictions. The
Indenture or such indenture shall provide that the Exchange Securities, the
Private Exchange Securities and the Securities shall vote and consent together
on all matters as one class and that none of the Exchange Securities, the
Private Exchange Securities or the Securities will have the right to vote or
consent as a separate class on any matter. The Private Exchange Securities shall
be of the same series as, and the Issuers shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to have the Private Exchange Securities bear the same CUSIP number as,
the Exchange Securities. The Issuers shall not have any liability under this
Agreement solely as a result of such Private Exchange Securities not bearing the
same CUSIP number as the Exchange Securities.

                  As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange Offer
and/or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Issuers shall:

                           (i) accept for exchange all Transfer Restricted
                  Securities duly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to
                  the Exchange Offer in accordance with the terms of the
                  Exchange Offer Registration Statement and the letter of
                  transmittal which shall be an exhibit thereto;

                           (ii) accept for exchange all Securities properly
                  tendered pursuant to the Private Exchange;

                           (iii) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all
                  Transfer Restricted Securities so accepted for exchange; and

                           (iv) cause the Trustee promptly to authenticate and
                  deliver Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as
                  the case may be, to each Holder of Transfer Restricted
                  Securities so accepted for exchange in a principal amount
                  equal to the principal amount of the Transfer Restricted
                  Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange.

                  Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange
Security will accrue from the last date on which interest was paid on the
Transfer Restricted Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no
interest has been paid on the Transfer Restricted Securities, from the date of
original issuance. The Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange shall not be
subject to any conditions, other than (i) that the Exchange Offer or the Private
Exchange, or the making of any exchange by a Holder, does not violate applicable
law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC, (ii) the due
tendering of Transfer Restricted Securities in accordance with the Exchange
Offer and the Private Exchange, (iii) that each Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities exchanged in the Exchange Offer shall have made customary
representations in connection therewith, including that all Exchange Securities
to be received by it shall be acquired in the ordinary course of its business
and that at the time of the consummation of the Exchange Offer it 


                                       7
<PAGE>


shall have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the
distribution (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) of the Exchange Securities,
and shall have made such other representations as may be reasonably necessary
under applicable SEC rules, policy, regulations or interpretations to render the
use of Form S-4 or other appropriate form under the 1933 Act available and (iv)
that no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any
court or by or before any governmental agency or body with respect to the
Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange which, in the Issuers' judgment, would
reasonably be expected to impair the ability of the Issuers to proceed with the
Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange. The Issuers shall inform the Initial
Purchasers of the names and addresses of the Holders to whom the Exchange Offer
is made, and the Initial Purchasers shall have the right to contact such Holders
and otherwise facilitate the tender of Transfer Restricted Securities in the
Exchange Offer.

                  2.2. Shelf Registration. If (i) the Issuers are not required
to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or permitted to consummate the
Exchange Offer as contemplated in Section 2.1 because the Exchange Offer is not
permitted by applicable law or by SEC rules or regulations or applicable
interpretations thereof by the staff of the SEC or (ii) any Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities (having a reasonable basis to do so) notifies the Issuers
prior to the 20th day following consummation of the Exchange Offer that (A) it
is prohibited by law or SEC policy from participating in the Exchange Offer or
(B) it may not resell the Securities acquired by it in the Exchange Offer to the
public without delivering a Prospectus and the Prospectus contained in the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such
resales or (C) it is a Participating Broker-Dealer and owns Securities acquired
directly from the Issuers or an affiliate of the Issuers, then in case of each
of clauses (i) and (ii) the Issuers shall, at their cost:

                           (a) Use their reasonable best efforts to file with
                  the SEC on or prior to 45 days after the earlier of (x) the
                  date on which the Issuers determine or receive notice from the
                  SEC that the Exchange Offer Registration Statement cannot be
                  filed as a result of clause (i) above and (y) the date on
                  which the Issuers receive the notice specified in clause (ii)
                  above, (such earlier date, the "Filing Deadline"), a Shelf
                  Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the
                  Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders from time to
                  time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by
                  the Majority Holders participating in the Shelf Registration
                  and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement, and use
                  their reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration
                  Statement to be declared effective by the SEC on or prior to
                  the later of (x) 90 days after the Filing Deadline for the
                  Shelf Registration Statement and (y) 150 days after the
                  Closing Date.

                           (b) Use their reasonable best efforts to keep the
                  Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order
                  to permit the Prospectus forming part thereof to be usable by
                  Holders for a period of two years (or nine months in the case
                  of a Shelf Registration Statement relating only to Private
                  Exchange Securities) from the date the Shelf Registration
                  Statement is declared effective by the SEC, or for such
                  shorter period that will terminate when all Transfer


                                       8
<PAGE>


                  Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration
                  Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration
                  Statement or cease to be outstanding or otherwise to be
                  Transfer Restricted Securities (the "Effectiveness Period").

                           (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, use
                  their reasonable best efforts to ensure that (i) any Shelf
                  Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any
                  Prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto
                  complies in all material respects with the 1933 Act and the
                  rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration
                  Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes
                  effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
                  omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
                  necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and
                  (iii) any Prospectus forming part of any Shelf Registration
                  Statement, and any supplement to such Prospectus (as amended
                  or supplemented from time to time), does not include an untrue
                  statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
                  necessary in order to make the statements, in light of the
                  circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

                  The Issuers shall not permit any securities other than
Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in the Shelf Registration
Statement. The Issuers further agree, if necessary, to supplement or amend the
Shelf Registration Statement, as required by Section 3(b) below, and to furnish
to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities copies of any such supplement
or amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the SEC.

                  2.3. Expenses. The Issuers shall pay all Registration Expenses
in connection with the registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2. Each Holder
shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any,
relating to, and fees and other costs of counsel in connection with, the sale or
disposition of such Holder's Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the
Shelf Registration Statement.

                  2.4. Effectiveness. An Exchange Offer Registration Statement
pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof or a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to
Section 2.2 hereof will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has
been declared effective by the SEC; provided, however, that if, after it has
been declared effective, the offering of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant
to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement is
interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of
the SEC or any other governmental agency or court, such Registration Statement
will be deemed not to have been effective during the period of such
interference, until the offering of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to
such Registration Statement may legally resume.

                  2.5. Interest. 

                  If (i) any of the Registration Statements required by this 
Agreement is not filed with the SEC on or prior to the date specified for 
such filing in this Agreement, (ii) any of such Registration Statements is 
not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the date specified for such 
effectiveness in this Agreement (the "Effectiveness Target Date"), (iii) the 
Exchange Offer has not been Consummated within 30 business days after the 
Effectiveness Target Date with respect to the Exchange Offer Registration 
Statement or (iv) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf 
Registration Statement is declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be 
effective or fail to be usable in connection with exchanges or resales of 
Transfer Restricted Securities without being succeeded immediately by a 
post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such 
failure and that is itself immediately declared effective (each such event 
referred to in clauses (i) through (iv), a "Registration Default"), then the 
Issuers agree that liquidated damages shall accrue on the accreted value of 
Securities constituting Transfer Restricted Securities for any period during 
which a Registration Default exists and remains uncured at a rate of 0.25% 
per annum with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the 
occurrence of the first Registration Default. The amount of liquidated 
damages will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each 
subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up 
to a maximum amount of liquidated damages of 1.00% per annum on the accreted 
value of the Securities constituting Transfer Restricted Securities.

                  The Issuers shall notify the Trustee within five business days
after each and every date on which an event occurs in respect of which
liquidated damages are required to be paid. All accrued liquidated damages shall
be paid on or before the applicable semiannual interest 

                                       9
<PAGE>


payment date by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by federal funds
check as set forth in the Indenture. Following the cure of all Registration
Defaults relating to any particular Transfer Restricted Securities, the accrual
of liquidated damages with respect to such Transfer Restricted Securities will
cease.

                  3.       Registration Procedures.

                  In connection with the obligations of the Issuers with respect

similar provision then in force) under the 1933 Act and comply with the
provisions of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to them with respect to the disposition of all securities

case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each underwriter of an underwritten
offering of Transfer Restricted Securities shall reasonably request in writing a
reasonable period of time prior to the time the applicable Registration
Statement is declared effective by the SEC, and do any and all other acts and
things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each such Holder
and underwriter to consummate the disposition or exchange in each such
jurisdiction of such Transfer Restricted Securities owned by such Holder;
provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be required to (i) qualify as a

will be the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act) of
Exchange Securities to be received by such broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer,
whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by the staff
of the SEC or such positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment of Merrill
Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated on behalf of the Participating
Broker-Dealers and its counsel, represent the prevailing views of the staff of
the SEC, including a statement that any such broker-dealer who receives Exchange
Securities for Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer may

requirements of the 1933 Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange
Securities, (ii) furnish to each Participating Broker-Dealer who has delivered

                  Restricted Securities acquired for its own account as a result
                  of market-making activities or other trading activities, it

such an event, use their reasonable best efforts to prepare a supplement or
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or the related Prospectus
or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required
document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Transfer
Restricted Securities or Participating Broker-Dealers, such Prospectus will not
contain at the time of such delivery any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or will remain
so qualified. At such time as such public disclosure is otherwise made or the
Issuers determine that such disclosure is not necessary, in each case to correct
any misstatement of a material fact or to include any omitted material fact, the
Issuers agree promptly to notify each Holder of such determination and to
furnish each Holder such number of copies of the Prospectus as amended or
supplemented, as such Holder may reasonably request;

                           (ii) obtain opinions of counsel to the Issuers and
                  updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope

                  managing underwriters, if any, and the holders of a majority
                  in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities
                  being sold) addressed to each selling Holder and the

                  for the purpose of soliciting purchases of Transfer Restricted
                  Securities, which agreement shall be in form, substance and
                  scope customary for similar offerings;

                           (v) if an underwriting agreement is entered into,
                  cause it to set forth indemnification provisions and
                  procedures substantially equivalent to the indemnification
                  provisions and procedures set forth in Section 4 hereof with
                  respect to the underwriters and all other parties to be
                  indemnified pursuant to said Section or, at the request of any
                  underwriters, in the form customarily provided to such
                  underwriters in similar types of transactions; and

                           (vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may
                  be reasonably requested and as are customarily delivered in
                  similar offerings to the Holders of a majority in principal
                  amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold and
                  the managing underwriters, if any.

The obligations of the Issuers under this paragraph (o) are subject to the
Holders and underwriters providing representations, warranties and
indemnifications customarily provided by such persons under such agreements, and
the Holders entering into custody agreements and powers of attorney containing
the representations, warranties and indemnifications customarily provided by
such persons in connection with secondary offerings of securities. The above
shall be done at each closing under any underwriting or similar agreement as and
to the extent required thereunder;

                  (p) in the case of a Shelf Registration or if a Prospectus is
required to be delivered by any Participating Broker-Dealer in the case of an
Exchange Offer, make available for inspection by representatives of the Holders
of the Transfer Restricted Securities, any underwriters participating in any
disposition pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, any Participating
Broker-Dealer and any counsel or accountant retained by any of the foregoing
(collectively, the "Inspectors"), all financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Issuers reasonably necessary to the
Inspectors to enable them to conduct any due diligence as is customary, and
cause the respective officers, directors, employees, and any other agents of the
Issuers to supply all information reasonably requested by the Inspectors in
connection therewith, and make such representatives of the Issuers available for
discussion of such documents as shall be reasonably requested by the Initial
Purchasers in connection 

                                       15

therewith; provided that records which the Issuers
determine, in good faith, to be confidential and which the Issuers notify the
Inspectors are confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspector unless: (i)
the disclosure of such records shall be necessary to avoid or correct a material
misstatement or omission in such Registration Statement, (ii) the release of
such records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of
competent jurisdiction or is otherwise required by law or (iii) the information
contained in such records has been made generally available to the public (other
than by a breach of these provisions by the Inspectors or any of their officers,
employees or agents). Each Holder and each such Participating Broker-Dealer will
be required to agree in writing that any such confidential information shall not
be disclosed other than pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the previous
sentence.

                  (q) (i) in the case of an Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, a reasonable time prior to the filing of any Exchange Offer
Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a part thereof, any amendment to
any Exchange Offer Registration Statement or amendment or supplement to such
Prospectus, provide copies of such document to the Initial Purchasers and to
counsel to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities and to make such
changes in any such document prior to the filing thereof which the Initial
Purchasers or counsel to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities may
reasonably request if the Issuers, acting reasonably and in good faith, deem
such changes to be reasonable, and, except as otherwise required by applicable
law, not file any such document in a form to which the Initial Purchasers on
behalf of the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities and counsel to the
Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities shall not have previously been advised
and furnished a copy of or to which the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the
Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or counsel to the Holders of Transfer
Restricted Securities shall reasonably object if the Issuers, acting reasonably
and in good faith, deem such objection to be reasonable, and make the
representatives of the Issuers available for discussion of such documents as
shall be reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers; and

                      (ii) in the case of a Shelf Registration, a reasonable 
time prior to filing any Shelf Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a
part thereof, any amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or amendment or
 supplement to such Prospectus, provide copies of such document to the Holders 
of Transfer Restricted Securities, to the Initial Purchasers, to counsel for the
 Holders and to the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of 
Transfer Restricted Securities, if any, make such changes in any such document 
prior to the filing thereof as the Initial Purchasers, the counsel to the 
Holders or the underwriter or underwriters reasonably request if the Issuers, 
acting reasonably and in good faith, deem such changes to be reasonable, and not
file any such document in a form to which the Majority Holders, the Initial 
Purchasers on behalf of the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities, counsel 
for the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or any underwriter shall not 
have previously been advised and furnished a copy of or to which the Majority 
Holders, the Initial Purchasers of behalf of the Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities, counsel to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or any 
underwriter shall reasonably object if the Issuers, acting reasonably and in 
good faith, deem such objection to be reasonable, and make the representatives
of the Issuers available for discussion of such document as shall be reasonably
requested by the Holders of Transfer 

                                       16
<PAGE>


Restricted Securities, the Initial Purchasers on behalf of such Holders, counsel
for the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or any underwriter.

                  (r) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use their
commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Transfer Restricted Securities to
be listed on any securities exchange on which similar debt securities issued by
the Issuers are then listed if requested by the Majority Holders, or if
requested by the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of
Transfer Restricted Securities, if any;

                  (s) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use their reasonable
best efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Securities to be rated by the
appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by the Majority Holders, or if
requested by the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of
Transfer Restricted Securities, if any;

                  (t) otherwise materially comply with all material applicable
rules and regulations of the SEC and make available to their security holders,
as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering at least 12
months which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and
Rule 158 thereunder;

                  (u) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made
with the NASD and, in the case of a Shelf Registration, in the performance of
any due diligence investigation by any underwriter and its counsel (including
any "qualified independent underwriter" that is required to be retained in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the NASD); and

                  (v) upon consummation of an Exchange Offer or a Private
Exchange, obtain any customary opinion of counsel to the Issuers addressed to
the Trustee for the benefit of all Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities
participating in the Exchange Offer or Private Exchange, and which includes an
opinion that the issuance of the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange
Securities, as applicable, has been duly authorized by the Issuers and, when the
Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities have been duly executed,
authenticated and issued in accordance with the Indenture as contemplated by
this Agreement, shall constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the
Issuers, enforceable against the Issuers in accordance with its respective terms
(with customary exceptions, qualifications and assumptions).

                  The Issuers may require each seller of Transfer Restricted
Securities as to which a registration is being effected to furnish to the
Issuers such information regarding such seller as may be required by the staff
of the SEC to be included in a Registration Statement and the Issuers may
exclude from such registration the Transfer Restricted Securities of any seller
who fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time (which amount of
reasonable time shall be reasonably determined by the Issuers); provided, that
the Issuers shall provide written notice to any such seller of any such request.

                  In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder
agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Issuers of the happening of any
event or the discovery of any facts, each of the kind described in Section
3(e)(v) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer
Restricted Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement until such 

                                       17
<PAGE>


Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus
contemplated by Section 3(k) hereof, and, if so directed by the Issuers, such
Holder will deliver to the Issuers (at its expense) all copies in such Holder's
possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder's possession,
of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities current at the
time of receipt of such notice.

                  In the event that the Issuers fail to use their reasonable
best efforts to effect the Exchange Offer or file any Shelf Registration
Statement and maintain the effectiveness of any Shelf Registration Statement as
provided herein, the Issuers shall not without the consent of the Majority
Holders file any Registration Statement with respect to any securities (within
the meaning of Section 2(1) of the 1933 Act) of the Issuers other than Transfer
Restricted Securities.

                  If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any
Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the
underwriter or underwriters and manager or managers that will manage such
offering will be selected by the Majority Holders of such Transfer Restricted
Securities included in such offering and shall be acceptable to the Issuers. No
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may participate in any underwritten
registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder's
Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, custody agreements, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other
documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

                  4.       Indemnification; Contribution

                  (a) The Issuers agree to indemnify and hold harmless each
Initial Purchaser, each Holder, each Participating Broker-Dealer, each Person
who participates as an underwriter (any such Person being an "Underwriter") and
each Person, if any, who controls any Holder or Underwriter within the meaning
of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 15 of the 1934 Act as follows:

                           (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim,
         damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue
         statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
         any Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto)
         pursuant to which Exchange Securities or Transfer Restricted Securities
         were registered under the 1933 Act, including all documents
         incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission
         therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
         to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
         which they were made, not misleading, or arising out of any untrue
         statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
         any Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission
         or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to
         make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
         which they were made, not misleading;

                           (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim,
         damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the
         aggregate amount paid in settlement of any 

                                       18
<PAGE>


         litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental
         agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever
         based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged
         untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 4(d)
         below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the
         Issuers; and

                           (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as
         incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by any
         indemnified party), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or
         defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by
         any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim
         whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any
         such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such
         expense is not paid under subparagraph (i) or (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuers by the
Holder, Initial Purchaser, Participating Broker-Dealer or Underwriter expressly
for use in a Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus
(or any amendment or supplement thereto). The foregoing indemnity with respect
to any untrue statement contained in or any omission from any preliminary
Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder, Initial Purchaser,
Participating Broker-Dealer or Underwriter (or any person controlling any such
person) from whom the person asserting such loss, liability, claim, damage or
expense purchased Securities that are the subject thereof if (i) the untrue
statement or omission contained in such preliminary Prospectus (excluding
documents incorporated by reference) was corrected; (ii) such person was not
sent or given a copy of the final Prospectus (excluding documents incorporated
by reference) which corrected the untrue statement or omission at or prior to
the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person; and
(iii) the Issuers satisfied their obligation pursuant to Section 3 of this
Agreement to provide a sufficient number of copies of the final Prospectus to
the Holder, Initial Purchaser, Participating Broker-Dealer or Underwriter.

                  (b) Each Holder, Initial Purchaser, Participating
Broker-Dealer and Underwriter severally, but not jointly, agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless the Issuers, the Initial Purchasers, the Participating
Broker-Dealers, each Underwriter and the other selling Holders, and each of
their respective directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls
the Issuers, the Participating Broker-Dealers, the Initial Purchasers, any
Underwriter or any other selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, against any and all loss, liability,
claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 4(a)
hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or
alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or
any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus included therein (or any amendment or
supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
with respect to such Holder, Initial Purchaser, Participating Broker-Dealer or
Underwriter furnished to the Issuers by such Holder, Initial Purchaser,
Participating Broker-Dealer or Underwriter expressly for use in the 

                                       19
<PAGE>


Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto); provided, however, that no such Holder,
Initial Purchaser, Participating Broker-Dealer or Underwriter shall be liable
for any claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by
such Holder, Initial Purchaser, Participating Broker-Dealer or Underwriter from
the sale of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to such Registration
Statement.

                  (c) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as
reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action or proceeding
commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but
failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying
party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced
as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability
which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. An
indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of such
action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not
(except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the
indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying party or parties be liable
for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local
counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in
connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the
same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.
No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by
any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim
whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought
under this Section 4 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or
potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i)
includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability
arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does
not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure
to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

                  (d) If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested
an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses
of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any
settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 4(a)(ii) effected without its
written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after
receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such
indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at
least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such
indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in
accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.
Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if at any time an
indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the
indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, an indemnifying party shall
not be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 4(a)(ii)
effected without its consent if such indemnifying party (i) reimburses such
indemnified party in accordance with such request to the extent that it
considers such request to be reasonable and (ii) provides written notice to the
indemnified party substantiating the unpaid balance as unreasonable, in each
case prior to the date of such settlement.

<PAGE>



                  (e) (i) If the indemnification provided for in this Section
4(a) is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an
indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses
incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Issuers on the one hand and the
Holders and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims,
damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

                  (ii) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4(b)
is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified
party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses
referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the
aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses
incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the such indemnifying party on the
one hand and each of the other Holders, Participating Broker-Dealers,
Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers and the Issuers on the other hand in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations.

                  The relative fault of the Issuers, the Holders, Participating
Broker-Dealers, Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers, as applicable, shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers, the
Holders, Participating Broker-Dealers, Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers
and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

                  The Issuers, the Holders and the Initial Purchasers agree that
it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4
were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were
treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation
which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in
this Section 4. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and
expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section
4 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

                  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4, no Initial
Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by
which the total price at which the Securities sold by it were offered exceeds
the amount of any damages which such initial Purchaser has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission.


                                       21
<PAGE>



                  No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

                  For purposes of this Section 4, each Person, if any, who
controls an Initial Purchaser or Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as such Initial Purchaser or Holder, and each manager or director
of the Issuers, and each Person, if any, who controls the Issuers within the
meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have
the same rights to contribution as the Issuers. The Initial Purchasers'
respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in
proportion to the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their
respective names in Schedule A to the Purchase Agreement and not joint.

                  5.       Miscellaneous

                  5.1. Rule 144 and Rule 144A. For so long as the Issuers are
subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15 of the 1934 Act, the
Issuers covenant that they will file the reports required to be filed by them
under the 1933 Act and Section 13(a) or l5-(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and
regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder. If the Issuers cease to be so
required to file such reports, the Issuers covenant that they will upon the
request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (a) make publicly
available such information as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144
under the 1933 Act, (b) deliver such information to a prospective purchaser as
is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and they
will take such further action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
may reasonably request, and (c) take such further action that is reasonable in
the circumstances, in each case, to the extent required from time to time to
enable such Holder to sell its Transfer Restricted Securities without
registration under the 1933 Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided
by (i) Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to
time, (ii) Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, as such Rule may be amended from time
to time, or (iii) any similar rules or regulations hereafter adopted by the SEC.
Upon the request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Issuers
will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether they have complied
with such requirements.

                  5.2. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Issuers have not entered
into and the Issuers will not after the date of this Agreement enter into any
agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of
Transfer Restricted Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the
provisions hereof. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not and will
not for the term of this Agreement in any way conflict with the rights granted
to the holders of the Issuers' other issued and outstanding securities under any
such agreements.

                  5.3. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Holder
may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such Holder
(a) agrees to sell such Holder's Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis
provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled
hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all
questionairres, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements,
lock-up letters, 

                                       22
<PAGE>


custody agreements and other documents required under the terms
of such underwriting agreements.

                  5.4. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement
including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof
may not be given unless the Issuers have obtained the written consent of Holders
of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Transfer
Restricted Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement,
waiver or departure.

                  5.5. Notices. All notices and other communications provided
for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, registered
first-class mail, telex, telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight
delivery (a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to
the Issuers by means of a notice given in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5.4, which address initially is the address set forth in the Purchase
Agreement with respect to the Initial Purchasers, with a copy to Latham &
Watkins, 633 West Fifth Street, Suite 4000, Los Angeles, California 90071-2007,
Attention: Pamela B. Kelly, Esq.; and (b) if to the Issuers, initially at the
Issuers' addresses set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and thereafter at such
other address of which notice is given in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5.4, with a copy to Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom L.L.P. &
Affiliates, 919 Third Avenue, New York, New York, Attention: Wallace Schwartz,
Esq.

                  All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have
been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; two
business days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed;
when answered back, if telexed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and
on the next business day if timely delivered to an air courier guaranteeing
overnight delivery.

                  Copies of all such notices, demands, or other communications
shall be concurrently delivered by the person giving the same to the Trustee
under the Indenture, at the address specified in such Indenture.

                  5.6. Successor and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of each
of the parties, including, without limitation and without the need for an
express assignment, subsequent Holders; provided, however, that nothing herein
shall be deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of
Transfer Restricted Securities in violation of the terms of the Purchase
Agreement or the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire
Transfer Restricted Securities, in any manner, whether by operation of law or
otherwise, such Transfer Restricted Securities shall be held subject to all of
the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Transfer Restricted
Securities such person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound
by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including
the restrictions on resale set forth in this Agreement and, if applicable, the
Purchase Agreement, and such person shall be entitled to receive the benefits
hereof.

                  5.7. Third Party Beneficiaries. The Initial Purchasers (even
if the Initial Purchasers are not Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities)
shall be third party beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder between the
Issuers, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, and shall have the
right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent they deem such
enforcement necessary or advisable to protect their rights or the rights of
Holders hereunder. Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall be a
third party beneficiary to the agreements made hereunder between the Issuers, on
the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the
right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such
enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights hereunder.

                  5.8. Specific Enforcement. Without limiting the remedies
available to the Initial Purchasers and the Holders, the Issuers acknowledge
that any failure by the Issuers to comply with their obligations under Sections
2.1 through 2.4 hereof may result in material irreparable injury to the Initial
Purchasers or the Holders for which monetary damages would not be adequate, that
it would not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and
that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchasers or any Holder may
obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Issuers'
obligations under Sections 2.1 through 2.4 hereof.

                  5.9. Restriction on Resales. Until the expiration of two years
after the original issuance of the Securities the Issuers will not, and will
cause their "affiliates" (as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(1) under the
1933 Act) not to, resell any Securities which are "restricted securities" (as
such term is defined under Rule 144(a)(3) under the 1933 Act) that have been
reacquired by any of them and shall immediately upon any purchase of any such
Securities submit such Securities to the Trustee for cancellation.

                  5.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each
of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

                  5.11. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for 
convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the 
meaning hereof.

                  5.12. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO
THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS THEREOF.

                  5.13. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the
provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is
held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and
enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining
provisions contained herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                 RE: ALADDIN GAMING HOLDINGS, LLC AND ALADDIN
                 CAPITAL CORP. REGISTRATION STATEMENT (333-49717
                 AND 333-49717-01)

     We have acted as special counsel to (1) Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC, a 
limited-liability company organized under the laws of the State of Nevada 
("Holdings"), and (2) Aladdin Capital Corp., a Nevada Corporation ("Capital" 
and together with Holdings, the "Note Issuers"), in connection with the 
issuance of $221,500,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity of Series B 
13 1/2% Senior Discount Notes due March 1, 2010 (the "New Notes") of the Note 
Issuers to be issued pursuant to an Indenture (the "Indenture") dated as of 
February 26, 1998 among the Note Issuers and State Street Bank and Trust 
Company ("State Street"), as trustee for the benefit of the holders of the 
Notes (in such capacity, the "Trustee"), in exchange for $221,500,000 
aggregate principal amount at maturity of Series A 13 1/2% Senior Discount 
Notes due March 1, 2010 (the "Old Notes") of the Note Issuers.

     This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of 
Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended 
(the "Act").

     In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies, 
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (i) the 
Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File Nos. 333-49717 and 333-49717-01) as 
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 
9, 1998 under the Act, Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on June 11, 1998 and 
Amendment No. 2 thereto with which this opinion is being filed (such 
Registration Statement, as so amended, being hereinafter referred to as the 
"Registration Statement"); (ii) the Indenture; (iii) the form of the New 
Notes, included as an exhibit to the Indenture; (iv) the Notes Registration 
Rights Agreement dated February 26, 1998 among the Note Issuers and Merrill 
Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Credit Suisse First Boston 
Corporation, CIBC Oppenheimer Corp. and Scotia Capital Markets (USA) Inc. 
(the "Notes Registration Rights Agreement"); and (v) the Form T-1 Statement 
of Eligibility of the Trustee filed as an exhibit to the Registration 
Statement. We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise 
identified to our satisfaction, of such other records of the Note Issuers and 
such agreements, certificates or records of public officials, certificates of 
officers or representatives of the Note Issuers, respectively, and such other 
documents, certificates and records as we have deemed necessary or 
appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein. The documents 
described in clauses (ii) and (iii) are referred to herein as the "Operative 
Documents."

     In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural 
persons, the genuineness of all signatures (including endorsements), the 
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to 
original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or 
photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In 
making our examination of executed documents (including the Operative 
Documents), we have assumed that the parties thereto (including the Note 
Issuers) had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all 
obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all 
requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such 
parties of such documents and (except to the extent we have opined on such 
matters below with respect to the Operative Documents) that such documents 
constitute valid and binding obligations of such parties. In providing the 
opinion set forth below, we have also assumed that the

Page 3

execution and delivery by each Note Issuer of the Operative Documents and the 
performance by such Note Issuer of its obligations thereunder do not and will 
not violate, conflict with, or constitute a default under (i) any agreement 
or instrument to which such Note Issuer or any of its properties is subject, 
(ii) any law, rule, or regulation to which such Note Issuer or its properties 
is subject (except that we do not make the assumption set forth in this 
clause (ii) with respect to those laws, rules and regulations of the State of 
New York and of the United States of America which, in our experience, are 
normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Operative 
Documents (other than securities or anti-fraud laws of any jurisdiction), but 
without our having made any special investigation concerning any other laws, 
rules or regulations), (iii) any judicial or regulatory order or decree of 
any governmental authority or (iv) any consent, approval, license, 
authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with any 
governmental authority. Based solely upon discussions with officers of the 
Note Issuers responsible for such matters and review of material documents 
identified to us by such officers, there are no such violations, conflicts or 
defaults. Based on our due diligence investigation, we do not know of any 
other such violations, conflicts or defaults. As to any facts material to the 
opinion expressed herein which were not independently established or 
verified, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations 
of officers and other representatives of the Note Issuers and the Trustee and 
others. Certain matters under the laws of the State of Nevada which we have 
assumed hereunder, have been addressed in the opinion of Schreck Morris, a 
copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 5.2 to the Registration Statement, 
and we refer you to such opinion with respect to such assumed matters.

     Members of our firm are admitted to the bar in the State of New York, 
and we express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction, 
including, without limitation, the laws of the State of Nevada, other than 
the laws of the United States of America, to the extent referred to 
specifically herein.

     Based upon and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions 
and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that when (i) the 
Registration Statement becomes effective under the Act and the Indenture has 
been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended; and (ii) 
the New Notes are executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with 
the terms of the Indenture and issued upon consummation of the exchange offer 
as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the New Notes will constitute 
valid and binding obligations of the Note Issuers, entitled to the benefits 
of the Indenture and enforceable against the Note Issuers in accordance with 
their terms, except that (A) the enforcement thereof may be subject to, or 
limited by, (i)

bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or 
other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting 
creditors' rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless 
of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in 
equity), (B) the waiver contained in Section 4.06 of the Indenture may be 
deemed unenforceable and (C) the rights to indemnification and contribution 
contained in the Notes Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by state 
or federal securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws. 
Additionally, the enforceability of provisions imposing a payment obligation 
pending the ability of the Company to comply timely with its registration 
obligations under the Notes Registration Rights Agreement and the Indenture 
may be limited by applicable laws.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as 
an exhibit to the Registration Statement. We also consent to the reference to 
our firm in the Registration Statement and in the related Prospectus as the 
same appears under the caption "Legal Matters." In giving this consent, we do 
not thereby admit that we are included in the category of persons whose 
consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations 
of the Commission.

                                       Very truly yours,

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

         You have requested our opinion regarding the discussion of the 
material United States federal income tax considerations under the heading 
"Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the Prospectus 
(the "Prospectus") which will be included in the Registration Statement on 
Form S-4 (the "Registration Statement") filed by Aladdin Gaming Holdings, LLC 
("Holdings") and Aladdin Capital Corp. ("Capital" and, together with Holdings, 
the "Issuers") on the date hereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"). The Prospectus relates to the offer, made by the Issuers, to exchange 
an aggregate amount at maturity of up to $221.5 million of 13 1/2% Series B 
Discount Notes Due 2010 (the "New Notes") of the Issuers, for a like 
principal amount of the issued and outstanding 13 1/2% Series A Discount 
Notes Due 2010 (the "Old Notes") of the Issuers from the holders thereof. 
This opinion is delivered in accordance with the requirements of Item 
601(b)(8) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

         We have reviewed the Prospectus and such other materials as we have
deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for our opinion described herein, and
have considered the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, pertinent
judicial authorities, interpretive rulings of the Internal Revenue Service and
such other authorities as we have considered relevant all as in effect on the
date hereof. It should be noted that statutes, regulations, judicial decisions
and administrative interpretations are subject to change at any time and, in
some circumstances, with retroactive effect. A change in the authorities upon
which our opinion is based could affect our conclusions.

         Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that the statements made
under the heading "Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" in
the Prospectus, to the extent that they constitute matters of law or legal
conclusions, are correct in all material respects.

<PAGE>

         In accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(23) of Regulation
S-K under the Securities Act, we hereby consent to the use of our name under the
heading "LEGAL OPINIONS" in the Prospectus and to the filing of this opinion as
an Exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not
thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is
required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933 or the rules and
regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

                                    Very truly yours,

insurer.

            (c) Subject to the force majeure provisions set forth in Article IX
below, the parties shall prosecute and pursue the work for which they are
responsible hereunder with reasonable dispatch and diligence and without
unreasonable delay and in strict compliance with the Construction Schedule,
using commercially reasonable efforts to, (i) in the case of the Aladdin
Parties, (A) complete construction of the Aladdin Hotel and Casino and the
Aladdin Parking Area by the First Scheduled Opening Date, (B) enter into an
agreement to cause the completion of the construction of the Music Hotel by the
Second Scheduled Opening Date, and (C) if the Central Energy Plant is not
operational by the First Scheduled Opening Date, cause utilities to be provided
to the Site from alternative energy sources, and, (ii) in the case of Bazaar
Company, complete construction of the Retail Facility and the Common Parking
Area by the First Scheduled Opening Date.

            (d) The Project Architect/Engineer and Project Contractor shall be
engaged under separate written contracts with the Aladdin Parties and Bazaar
Company, each reasonably satisfactory to the other. Regardless of whether the
Project Architect/Engineer or Project Contractor is working on any improvements
in a particular Tract, with respect to its own construction obligations, such
party shall use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Project
Architect/Engineer and the Project Contractor to coordinate the construction
plans and activities on that Tract with the construction plans and activities of
the other parties in order to achieve the


                                       13
<PAGE>

objectives set forth herein.

            (e) Subject to Article III hereof, in order to achieve the
objectives set forth in Section 4.1(a) above and to present to the public a
coherent, consistent and polished finished product, each party hereto shall use
all reasonable efforts to cooperate and coordinate with the other parties hereto
with respect to the design and construction of all interior and exterior
theming, finishes and attractions.

            (f) Each of the Aladdin Parties and Bazaar Company shall cooperate
with one another in their respective efforts to apply for and obtain the Permits
required for their respective obligations hereunder, at no expense or liability
to the other.

            (g) Each of the Aladdin Parties and Bazaar Company agrees that it
shall not (and that it shall cause its Permittees to not) (i) unreasonably
interrupt or interfere with the work conducted by any other party at the Site;
(ii) cause any material increase in the cost of construction on another party's
Tract, or (iii), interfere unreasonably with the use, occupancy or enjoyment of
another party's Tract, or any part thereof.

            (h) Each of the Aladdin Parties and Bazaar Company, as applicable,
shall provide written notice to the other at least ten (10) business days in
advance of the commencement of the Demolition Work, the Site Work and the
construction of the Aladdin Improvements and the Bazaar Improvements, as
applicable, or any other construction, alteration or repair contemplated by NRS
ss.108.234, so as to afford the Aladdin Parties and Bazaar Company an
opportunity to file appropriate notices of non-responsibility.


            (i) If either the Aladdin Parties or Bazaar Company is required by
its Mortgagee to obtain, or otherwise elects to require its Project Contractor
to obtain, payment and/or completion bonds in connection with the improvements
constructed by such party, then such party shall request that Bazaar Company or
the Aladdin Parties, as applicable, be named as an obligee under such bonds,
except that the rights of the other party hereto shall be subordinate to the
Mortgagee's rights and the rights of the party obtaining such bond.

      4.2 Insurance. Throughout the term of this Agreement, each party shall
maintain such insurance as is required by the REA and their respective
Mortgagees.

      4.3 Indemnification. Each of the Aladdin Parties and Bazaar Company
("Indemnitor") shall at all times indemnify, hold harmless, protect and defend,
the other parties hereto, including their Affiliates and their respective
officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, landlords,
agents, representatives, consultants, servants and employees, and their Tracts,
as applicable (individually and collectively, "Indemnitee"), from and against
all losses, claims, actions, liens, proceedings, liabilities, damages, costs
and/or expenses, including the Indemnitee's reasonable attorneys' fees but
excluding consequential damages (collectively, a "Claim") resulting from such
Indemnitor's operation, use or ownership of its Tract or arising from any event
occurring on its Tract arising under this Agreement, to the extent not resulting
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee.


                                       14
<PAGE>

      4.4 Waiver of Subrogation. Each Indemnitor covenants that it will, if
generally available in the insurance industry, obtain for the benefit of the
Indemnitee a waiver of any right of subrogation which the insurer of Indemnitor
may acquire against Indemnitee by virtue of the payment of any loss covered by
insurance. In the event any Indemnitor is by law, statute or governmental
regulation unable to obtain a waiver of the right of subrogation for the benefit
of Indemnitee, then, during any period of time when such waiver is unobtainable,
Indemnitor shall not have been deemed to have released any subrogated claim of
its insurance carrier against Indemnitee, and during the same period of time
Indemnitee shall be deemed not to have released Indemnitor from


                                       15
<PAGE>

any claims it or its insurance carrier may assert which otherwise would have
been released pursuant to this Section.

      4.5 Reimbursement Obligations.

            (a) Bazaar Company shall reimburse the Aladdin Parties for the costs
associated with (i) the construction of the structural shoulder area of the
Shell shared by the Retail Facility and the Aladdin Hotel and Casino in the
amount of Twelve Million Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($12,750,000),
(ii) the construction of the Facade in the amount of Eight Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($850,000), and (iii) Bazaar Company's pro rata share of the
financing costs incurred by the Aladdin Parties, as reasonably determined by
Bazaar Company and the Aladdin Parties, in connection with the costs set forth
in clauses (i) and (ii) above (the "Reimbursement Obligation"). Assuming all of
the work described in clauses (i) and (ii) has been completed in accordance with
the requirements of the Design/Build Contract, Bazaar Company shall pay the
Reimbursement Obligation immediately upon its first draw under its construction
financing. If such work has not been completed at the time of Bazaar Company's
first draw and Bazaar Company's construction lender permits such partial
reimbursements to be funded under its construction draws, the Reimbursement
Obligation shall be paid in proportion to the work completed, as reasonably
determined by Bazaar Company's construction lender. If Bazaar Company's
construction lender does not permit partial reimbursement to be funded, the
reimbursement obligation shall be paid in a lump sum upon completion of the
applicable work.

            (b) Notwithstanding that certain Letter of Intent signed by the
parties as of February 26, 1997, Bazaar Company and the Aladdin Parties shall
have no reimbursement obligations one to the other with respect to the
construction of the Aladdin Improvements and the Bazaar Improvements except as
set forth in this Agreement, the REA and the Common Parking Area Use Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no
event shall Bazaar Company be obligated to spend more than Thirty Six Million
Dollars ($36,000,000) attributable to the design and construction of the Common
Parking Area, and any excess costs shall be paid by the Aladdin Parties.

      4.6 Remedies and Self-Help Cure.

            (a) If any party fails to perform any of its duties or obligations
under Article III with respect to the construction of the Common Parking Area
and such failure involves missing a milestone on a critical path of the
Construction Schedule, or if any party fails to perform any of its duties or
obligations under this Article IV with respect to the maintenance and operation
of Common Areas (as that term is defined in the REA), or if the Aladdin Parties
fail to complete the construction of the structural shoulder area of the Shell
shared by the Retail Facility and the Aladdin Hotel and Casino, any other party
shall have those self-help cure rights set forth in Section 3.11 of the REA.

            (b) If there is a Default by Bazaar Company hereunder with respect
to its Reimbursement Obligation, the other party shall have those rights set
forth on Exhibit "E" hereto.

                             [INTENTIONALLY DELETED]

                                   ARTICLE VII
                           EXERCISE OF APPROVAL RIGHTS

      7.1 Wherever in this Agreement, the approval or consent of any party is
required, and unless a different time limit is provided herein (in which event
such different time limit shall control), such approval or disapproval shall be
given within twenty (20) days following the receipt of the item to be so
approved or disapproved or the same shall be conclusively deemed to have been
approved by such party, subject to the provisions of this Article. Such
approval, or disapproval, shall be given in writing, and such approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, unless the provisions of this Agreement with respect
to the particular consent or approval shall expressly provide that the same may
be given or refused in the sole and absolute judgment or discretion of such
party. Any disapproval shall specify with particularity the reasons therefor;
provided, however, that wherever in this Agreement any party is given the right
to approve or disapprove in its sole and absolute judgment or discretion, such
party may disapprove without specifying a reason therefor and its disapproval
shall not be subject to contest in any judicial, administrative, arbitration or
other proceeding.

      7.2 A party requesting approval shall send such request in a writing
setting forth the applicable time period, pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, within
which such party must act or otherwise respond. If the time specified in the
notice is incorrectly set forth or omitted, the time limit shall be thirty (30)
days unless a longer time period is specified in this Agreement, in which case
the longer time period shall control. Failure to specify such time period shall
not invalidate such notice but shall instead require the action of such party
within said thirty (30) day period or such longer period.

      7.3 Any request for the consent or approval of any party shall refer to
the proper section numbers of this Agreement to which the request relates,
properly state the time period permitted hereunder for approval, and state that
the document, or the facts contained therein, shall be deemed approved or
consented to by the recipient unless the recipient objects thereto within the
required time period specified in such notice. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, no recipient's approval of or consent to
the subject matter of a notice shall be deemed to have been given by its failure
to object thereto if such notice (or the accompanying cover letter) did not
properly refer to the applicable section of this Agreement and properly state
the time period permitted hereunder for approval.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                          DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURES

      8.1 Arbitration.

            (a) The parties hereunder agree that if they are unable in good
faith to resolve any dispute or disagreement arising under or pursuant to this
Agreement, including any dispute or disagreement about the interpretation or
application of any provision hereof (collectively, a


                                       17
<PAGE>

"Dispute"), but not including any Default or claim of Default thereunder (which
shall be resolved before a court of law), any party to the Dispute (a "Concerned
Party" and together with the other parties to the Dispute, the "Concerned
Parties") shall demand binding arbitration before the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA") in Las Vegas, Nevada, by so notifying all other Concerned
Parties and the AAA.

            (b) In a Dispute between Bazaar Company, on the one hand, and the
Aladdin Parties, on the other hand, the Aladdin Parties and all Affiliates
thereof shall collectively be considered a single Concerned Party. A Permitted
Transferee shall not be considered a single Concerned Party with the Aladdin
Parties.

            (c) Within three (3) days of a demand for arbitration of a Dispute
hereunder, in accordance with the rules and guidelines of the AAA, the Aladdin
Parties and Bazaar Company shall mutually agree upon one arbitrator (and two
alternate arbitrators) to hear the Dispute and the demanding party shall
immediately notify such arbitrator of his or her appointment. If an arbitrator
is unavailable to hear the Dispute, the demanding party shall notify the
alternate(s). If the parties cannot mutually agree upon an arbitrator, the
demanding party shall promptly apply to the Eighth Judicial District Court of
Nevada for the appointment of an arbitrator in accordance with the provisions of
NRS Chapter 38 The arbitration shall take place at the offices of the AAA or at
such other location to which the Concerned Parties agree in Las Vegas, Nevada.
To the extent possible, the appointed arbitrator shall commence the arbitration
hearing on the Dispute within three (3) days of his or her appointment and the
hearing shall be conducted on consecutive days, including Saturdays and Sundays
(but excluding holidays), until the completion of the hearing. In connection
with any arbitration proceedings commenced hereunder, no Concerned Party shall
have the right to join any third parties not a party to this Agreement other
than the Project Architect/Engineer and the Project Contractor, except by
written consent containing a specific reference to this Agreement signed by all
Concerned Parties and the other Person sought to be joined. The decision of the
arbitrator shall be final and binding on, as well as nonappealable by, the
Concerned Parties. The arbitrator shall determine the award as promptly as
possible after the arbitration hearing has been completed, and if at all
possible not later than three (3) days after the completion of the hearing. The
award of the arbitrator shall be written and signed by the arbitrator and shall
be served on each Concerned Party in the manner provided in Article 10.2.

            (d) The award of the arbitrator may be entered as a judgment in a
court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by law, compliance with
this Article VIII by a Concerned Party is a condition precedent to the
commencement by any Concerned Party of a judicial proceeding arising out of a
Dispute.

            (e) If any of the provisions relating to arbitration are not adhered
to or complied with, any party may petition the Eighth Judicial District Court
of the State of Nevada for appropriate relief in accordance with the provisions
of NRS Chapter 38.

      8.3 Fees and Costs. The prevailing party in a Dispute shall be entitled to
recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable fees and costs, including
attorneys' fees and other reasonable expenses, as fixed by the arbitrator, in
his or her discretion.

                                  FORCE MAJEURE

      9.1 Force Majeure. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein to the
contrary, each party shall be Excused from its duty to perform any covenant or
obligation hereunder, except an obligation to pay any sums of money not
expressly conditioned on any party's performance of a covenant or obligation
that has itself been Excused by this Section, in the event but only so long as
the performance of any such covenant or obligation is prevented, delayed,
retarded or hindered by any of the following: an act of God, fire, earthquake,
flood, explosion, action of the elements, war, invasion, insurrection, riot, mob
violence, sabotage, inability to procure or general shortage of labor,
equipment, facilities, materials or supplies in the open market, failure of
transportation, strikes, lockouts, action of labor unions, condemnation,
requisition, laws, orders of governmental or civil or military or naval
authorities, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing,
not within the respective control of such party (other than the lack or
inability to procure funds to fulfill its covenants and obligations provided in
this Agreement), including the timely performance of any party (other than such
party) of its respective obligations under the DPW Agreement and the REA.

      9.2 Notice. In the event any party claims an Excuse from its duty to
perform any covenant or obligation set forth in this Agreement due to any of the
events of force majeure set forth in Section 9.1, such party shall notify the
other party of the occurrence of such event of force majeure within ten (10)
days following the occurrence thereof. The provisions of Section 9.1 shall not
be effective to Excuse any party failing to give such notice from the
performance of such covenant or obligation until such notice is given to the
other party.

                                    ARTICLE X
                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Each party may designate at any time a different or additional address for its
receipt of Notice by giving at least ten (10) days' Notice of such change of
address to all other parties.

            (b) Any Notice shall be deemed to have been given, made, received
and communicated, as the case may be, on the date personal delivery was effected
if personally served, three (3) business days after the deposit thereof in the
United States mail, one (1) business day after the deposit thereof with the
overnight delivery service, and on the date of transmission if by facsimile and
received by the primary intended recipient (as opposed to those copied) prior to
5:00 p.m. on the recipient's business day (provided a hard copy of the same is
sent in another manner permitted herein within twenty-four (24) hours of
transmission); provided, however, if delivery is not completed due to the
absence of the recipient or his/her refusal to accept delivery, delivery to the
Person identified above for receipt of copies shall be deemed to be delivery to
the primary addressee. If any such Notice requires any action or response by the
recipient or involves any consent or approval solicited from the recipient, such
fact shall be clearly stated in the Notice. Any responsive consent, approval or
designation shall be sent as provided above and shall be deemed to have been
given, made, received and communicated, as the case may be, on the date of
personal delivery, the date on which the facsimile was transmitted, one (1)
business day after the deposit thereof with the overnight delivery service, or
three (3) business days after the same was deposited in the United States mail
in conformity with this Section.

            (c) In the event a party shall give Notice to any other party of a
Default, such Party shall concurrently send each of the other parties and their
Mortgagees (in accordance with Article 15 of the REA) a copy of such Notice.

      10.3 Mortgagee Notice Provisions. Any Mortgagee under a Mortgage affecting
the Tract of a party shall be entitled to receive notice of any Default by the
party as to such Tract in the same manner provided in Section 10.2, provided
that such Mortgagee shall have delivered a notice to each party, substantially
in the following form:

            The undersigned, whose address is _______________ does hereby
            certify that it is the "Mortgagee" (as such term is defined in the
            Site Work Development and Construction Agreement ("Site Work
            Agreement")) of the Tract of land described on Exhibit "A" attached
            hereto and made a part hereof and being the Tract of [party] in
            Clark County, Nevada. In the event that any notice shall be given of
            the Default of the party as to whose Tract the Mortgage held by the
            undersigned applies, a copy thereof shall be delivered to the


                                       22
<PAGE>

            undersigned who shall have all rights of a Mortgagee to Cure such
            Default as specified in the Site Work Agreement. Failure to deliver
            a copy of such notice to the undersigned shall in no way affect the
            validity of the notice of Default as it respects such party, but
            shall make the same invalid as it respects the Mortgage of the
            undersigned and such Mortgagee's cure rights shall remain
            undisturbed.

In the event that any notice shall be given of the Default of a party and such
defaulting party has failed to Cure or commence to Cure such Default as provided
in this Agreement, then and in that event any such Mortgagee under a Mortgage
affecting the Tract of the Defaulting Party shall be entitled to receive an
additional notice, given in the manner provided in Section 10.2, that the
Defaulting Party has failed to Cure or commence to Cure such Default. Each
Mortgagee shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of said additional notice to
Cure or, if such Default cannot be Cured within thirty (30) days, to commence to
Cure any such Default and to prosecute said Cure continuously and diligently
until completed; provided, however, that no dispute of any nature between
Mortgagees shall serve to toll or extend said Cure period nor impose liability
of any nature on any Party to resolve such dispute in connection with accepting
Cure from any particular Mortgagee.

      10.4 Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified, changed or
supplemented, nor may any obligations hereunder be waived, except by a written
instrument that references this Agreement and is signed by the parties. The
parties shall make those modifications and changes to this Agreement requested
by any Mortgagees that do not materially increase their respective obligations
hereunder or adversely affect or diminish their respective rights at no cost to
the non-requesting party.

      10.5 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Section 10.3,
this Agreement is for the exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and not for
the benefit of any third Person, nor shall this Agreement be deemed to have
conferred any rights, express or implied, upon any third Person.

      10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of
which, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

      10.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted
under, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada
applicable to agreements made and to be performed wholly within the State of
Nevada. The parties intend and agree that the proper forum for the litigation of
all actions and proceedings arising out of a Default or claim of Default under
this Agreement, is any circuit court of the State of Nevada or the Eighth
Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada in Clark County, Nevada. Each of
the parties agrees that it will not commence any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement in any court other than as specified in the
preceding sentence and it shall not challenge on grounds of forum non conveniens
or any other grounds any action or proceeding so commenced, and hereby
stipulates and irrevocably agrees that said courts have in personam jurisdiction
over each of them for such litigation of any such controversy.

      10.8 Waivers. A party's waiver of another party's default or of a
provision of this Agreement must be made in writing, and no such waiver shall be
implied from a party's failure to take or exercise, or delay in taking or
exercising, any action or right in respect thereof (unless the time specified
herein for taking such action or exercising such right has expired). No express
waiver of any default shall affect any default, or cover any period of time,
other than the precise default and period of time specified in such express
waiver. No waiver of any default in the performance of any term, covenant,
restriction or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a
waiver of any subsequent default or of any other term, covenant, restriction or
condition, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. A party's giving
of its consent or approval to any act or request of another party or the single
or partial exercise of any right shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary the consenting party's consent to or approval of or the exercise of
any subsequent acts, requests or rights, whether or not similar.

      10.9 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by any party hereto
except that Aladdin Gaming may assign its rights and obligations under this
Agreement to Holdings, and vice versa, and any Mortgagee that succeeds to the
interest of a party hereunder may assign this Agreement subject to the terms of
the REA. If Mortgagee acquires title to the Aladdin Site, Mortgagee shall not be
liable for any obligations or damages incurred prior to such acquisition of
title but from and after such date shall assume Aladdin Gaming's obligations
hereunder. The parties agree in such event to meet and mutually agree upon
equitable adjustments to the Construction Schedule and timing for interim and
final completion deadlines consistent with commercially reasonable and
technically feasible realities of the then existing circumstances. The Aladdin
Parties and Bazaar Company may collaterally assign its rights hereunder to
lenders in connection with construction financing. Any assignment shall
expressly be made subject to the provisions of this Agreement and no party shall
be released from liability hereunder in the event of an assignment without the
prior written agreement of the other parties, which agreement shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

      10.10 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
shall inure to the benefit of the parties and to their respective successors and
assigns.

      10.11 Further Assurances. The parties agree to do such further acts and
things and to execute and deliver such additional agreements and instruments as
the other may reasonably require to consummate, evidence or confirm any
agreement contain herein in the manner contemplated hereby.

      10.12 Title and Headings. Titles and headings of sections of this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the
construction of any provisions of this Agreement.

      10.13 Pronouns. All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to
refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity
of the parties require.

      10.14 Severability. The determination that any covenant, representation,
warranty, condition or provision of this Agreement is invalid shall not affect
the enforceability of the


                                       25
<PAGE>

remaining covenants, representations, warranties, conditions or provisions
hereof and, in the event of any such determination, this Agreement shall be
construed as if such invalid covenant, representation, warranty, condition or
provision were not included herein.

      10.15 Drafting Ambiguities. The parties and their respective counsel have
reviewed and revised this Agreement. The rule of construction to the effect that
any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments or exhibits
hereto.

      10.16 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all
prior understandings and writings and respect thereto.

      10.17 Conflicts with REA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 10.8 above, to the extent this Agreement fails to address or conflicts
with an issue or matter addressed in the REA, the provisions of the REA shall
control.

      10.18 Term. This Agreement shall terminate on July 31, 1998, if Bazaar
Company shall have failed to obtain its construction financing by that date, or
on such date as all covenants and obligations of the parties hereunder have been
performed, unless sooner terminated by the written consent of all parties
hereto.

      10.19 Recording Memorandum and Termination of Agreement. Upon the
execution of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall agree to the form of, and,
prior to the recordation of any Mortgage and after the recordation of a
Memorandum of Bazaar Lease, shall record or cause to be recorded in the office
of the recorder of the County, a Memorandum of Site Work Development and
Construction Agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
"F". Upon the termination of this Agreement, either party, at the other party's
request, will execute a recordable statement of termination of this Agreement
which states the applicable termination date.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement the date and
year first above written.

     SECTION 2.1    Lessee shall pay to Lessor from and after the grand opening
of the Retail Facility to the public ("Rent Commencement Date"), in such legal

     SECTION 2.2    Lessee shall pay the Property Rent without notice or demand.

                                     ARTICLE III

                         PAYMENT OF TAXES, ASSESSMENTS, ETC.

     SECTION 3.1    During all times prior to the Commercial Subdivision, Lessee

     SECTION 3.2    Deliberately Omitted.

     SECTION 3.3    The parties intend this Lease to be a "net" Lease, subject
to the terms and conditions of the REA (as defined in Section 7.1 hereof). All

     SECTION 3.4    Each party, upon the written request of the other party,
shall furnish to the requesting party and, upon the further and separate written
request of the other, to any mortgagee to whom the requesting party is the
mortgagor, within thirty (30) days after the date when any Imposition would
become delinquent, official receipts of the appropriate taxing authority, or
other proof satisfactory to the requesting party or such mortgagee, evidencing
the payment thereof or a decision to proceed diligently under Section 3.5.

     SECTION 3.5    Prior to the Fee Transfer, Lessee shall have the right,
after prior written notice to Lessor, to contest the amount or validity, in
whole or in part, of any Imposition by appropriate proceedings diligently
conducted in good faith; provided, however, that Lessee must in any event pay
any such Imposition prior to any action being taken that may adversely affect
the ownership of or any leasehold or mortgagee's interest in the Demised
Premises, in any of the Improvements, or in any portion thereof for nonpayment.
Prior to commencing the contest of an Imposition, Lessee shall notify Lessor of
the nature of the contest and of the amount in issue, and Lessor and Lessee
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reconcile their respective
positions in relation to the taxing authority. Subject to the terms or
conditions of any mortgage on the Demised Premises, either Lessor or Lessee may,
if it shall so desire, but at its sole expense, endeavor at any time or times to
obtain a lowering of the assessed valuation upon the Demised Premises and the
Improvements, or any part thereof, for the purpose of reducing taxes thereon,
and in such event, the other party will cooperate in effecting such reduction,
provided the other party shall not be obligated to expend any money or provide
any moneys in so cooperating.

     SECTION 3.6    Neither party shall be required to join in any proceedings
referred to in Section 3.5 of this Lease that are initiated by the other party
unless the provisions of any law, rule or regulation at the time in effect shall
require that such proceeding be brought by and or in the name of such other
party or any owner of the Demised Premises, in which event the other party shall
join in such proceedings or permit the same to be brought in its name, but shall
not, however, be subjected to any liability for the payment of any costs or
expenses in connection with any such proceedings not initiated by that party and
the party initiating the said proceedings will indemnify and save harmless the
other party from any such costs and expenses, reimbursing the other party
therefor upon demand. Each party shall be entitled to any refund of any
Imposition and penalties or interest from any governmental authority to the
extent such refund represents moneys paid to such governmental authority,
directly or indirectly, by that party.

     SECTION 3.7    An official certificate or statement issued or given by any
federal, state, county or municipal authority, or any department, bureau, board
or officer thereof or of any public utility, showing the existence of any
Imposition, together with interest and penalties thereon, the payment of which
is the obligation of Lessee as herein provided, shall be prima facie evidence
for all purposes of this Lease of the existence, amount and validity of such
Imposition.

     SECTION 4.1    Subject to the provisions of Articles I and XI hereof and
the provisions of the REA, on the last day of the Term hereof, or upon any

Fee Transfer), Lessee shall surrender and deliver possession of the Demised
Premises and the Improvements to Lessor in reasonably good condition considering
their age and use, ordinary wear and tear and the effect of casualty and
condemnation excepted, without delay and free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances other than (a) the Permitted Exceptions, or (b) those created in
accordance with the provisions hereof or the REA. At the end of the Term (except
if the Term ends as a result of the Fee Transfer), the title to and ownership of
the Improvements shall automatically vest in Lessor without the execution of any
further instrument, but Lessee shall execute a quitclaim deed and any other
appropriate conveyancing documents to Lessor if Lessor so requests.

     SECTION 4.2     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, where
furnished by or at the expense of Lessee or any subtenant, Lessee may (or if
required by Lessor, shall) remove furniture, trade fixtures and business
equipment, furnishings and personal property of every kind, regardless of
whether or not originally classified as Improvements, at or prior to the
termination of this Lease or by such subtenant at or prior to the termination of
its sublease; provided, however, that the removal thereof will not impair the
structural integrity of the Improvements. Any damage to the Improvements
resulting from such removal shall be repaired by Lessee to the reasonable
satisfaction of Lessor, taking into account normal wear and tear.

     SECTION 4.3    Any personal property of Lessee which shall remain in the
Improvements for more than thirty (30) days after the termination of this Lease
and the removal of Lessee, or any personal property of any subtenant which shall
remain in the Improvements for more than thirty (30) days after the termination
of this Lease and the removal of any such subtenant from the Improvements, may,
at the option of Lessor, be deemed to have been abandoned by Lessee or such
subtenant and may be retained by Lessor as its property or may be disposed of,
without accountability, in such a manner as Lessor may see fit.

     SECTION 4.4    The provisions of this Article IV shall survive any
termination of this Lease.

                                      ARTICLE V

                                      INSURANCE

this Lease, maintain, or cause to be maintained, in full force and effect, such
policy or policies of insurance as shall be required under Article 8 of the REA.

times during usual business hours after reasonable. notice to Lessee and upon
Lessee's consent (which Lessee shall not unreasonably withhold) for the purpose
of showing the same to prospective purchasers and prospective tenants of the

                                     CONDEMNATION

     SECTION 10.1   In the event that the whole of the Demised Premises shall be

date that title to or possession of the Demised Premises and Improvements is
taken and Property Rent and other charges provided herein to be paid by Lessee
or already paid by Lessee shall be apportioned and paid by Lessee or refunded by
Lessor to Lessee, as appropriate, to such date. In the event that a portion of
the Demised Premises is condemned, then this Lease shall remain in full force
and effect as to the portion of the Demised Premises remaining after such
taking; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such partial taking occurs prior to the Fee
Transfer, Lessee's Allocable Share of Real Estate Taxes shall be recalculated
and Lessor shall refund any amounts Lessee overpaid for the applicable tax year.
Lessee shall have the right to all awards and payments provided as compensation
for any such taking, and Lessor hereby agrees to assign and transfer to Lessee
any such awards and payments received by it, except those expressly allocated to
the Lessor's interest in the Demised Premises. Lessor and Lessee shall cooperate

     SECTION 11.1 As used herein, "Mortgage" shall mean an indenture of
mortgage, deed of trust, or a Sale and Leaseback of all or a portion of the
interest of a party ("Mortgagor") in any portion of the Master Site owned or
leased by it ("Mortgaged Premises"). "Mortgagee" shall mean either the trustee
and beneficiary/mortgagee, individually or collectively as appropriate, under a
Mortgage or the fee owner or lessor following a Sale and Leaseback provided that
such persons are not in possession of the Mortgaged Premises of the applicable
party. A "Sale and Leaseback" shall mean a transaction in which (a) a party who
is the fee owner of its Mortgaged Premises conveys a fee or a leasehold estate
in all or a portion of its Mortgaged Premises for financing purposes and,
immediately thereafter, such party, its affiliate or any guarantor of such
party's covenants, agreements and obligations set forth in this Lease or in the
REA, leases or subleases such Mortgaged Premises or portion thereof so conveyed,
or (b) a party holding a leasehold estate in its Mortgaged Premises assigns said
estate (or a portion thereof) or subleases such Mortgaged Premises (or a portion
thereof) for financing purposes and, immediately thereafter, such party, its
affiliate or any guarantor of such party's covenants, agreements and obligations
set forth in this Lease or in the REA subleases such Mortgaged Premises or
portion thereof so assigned or subleased.

     SECTION 11.2   Any present or future Mortgage or other lien or encumbrance
affecting or encumbering Lessor's fee title to the real property constituting
the Demised Premises (the "Fee") (any such Mortgage or other lien or encumbrance
shall be referred to herein as a "Fee Mortgage") shall be subject and
subordinate to this Lease. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and agree that
concurrently herewith, Lessor is encumbering the Fee with a Fee Mortgage in
favor of Bank of Nova Scotia as Administrative Agent on behalf of certain
lenders.

     SECTION 11.3   Lessee shall have the right, at any time and from time to
time, to encumber, by mortgage, deed of trust or other property instrument, the
leasehold interest herein demised on such terms, conditions, and maturity as
Lessee shall determine, and to enter into any and all extensions, modifications,
amendments, replacements, and refinancing thereof as Lessee may desire (all of
the foregoing being referred to herein collectively as "Leasehold Mortgages" and
singularly as a "Leasehold Mortgage").

          (b)  Lessor shall simultaneously deliver to the holder of each
     Leasehold Mortgage ("Leasehold Mortgagee") and/or each trustee ("Trustee")
     of any trust indenture or deed of trust relating to the Leasehold Mortgage
     identified by written notice from Lessee to Lessor, a duplicate copy of any
     and all notices of default or other notices which Lessor may deliver to
     Lessee pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and any such notice shall not
     be effective as against any such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee until the
     duplicate copy is so delivered. A different address may be designated by
     any such Leasehold Mortgagee and Trustee by notice delivered to Lessor from
     time to time. Any such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee may, at its option
     and at any time, pay any of the Rents or other sums of money herein
     stipulated to be paid by Lessee or do any other act or thing required of
     Lessee by the terms of this Lease in accordance with the provisions of
     Sections 11.3(f) and (g) hereof; and all payments so made, and all things
     so done or performed by any such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee shall be as
     effective to cure Lessee's default as the same would have been if done and
     performed by Lessee instead of by any such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee.
     The loan documents related to any such Leasehold Mortgage (the "Loan
     Documents") may, if Lessee so desires, be so conditioned as to provide
     that, as between the Leasehold Mortgagee (or Trustee) and Lessee, the
     Leasehold Mortgagee (or Trustee), on making good and performing any such
     default or defaults on the part of Lessee, shall be thereby subrogated to
     any and all of the rights of the person or persons to whom any payment is
     made by the Leasehold Mortgagee (or Trustee), and all of the rights of
     Lessee hereunder. The Leasehold Mortgagee (or Trustee) shall not be or
     become liable to Lessor as an assignee of this Lease until such time, if
     any, as the Leasehold Mortgagee (or Trustee) shall by foreclosure or other
     appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, or as the result of any
     other action of remedy provided for in the Loan Documents (or Leasehold
     Mortgage), or by proper conveyance from Lessee, either acquire the rights
     and interests of Lessee under the terms of this Lease or actually take
     possession of the Demised Premises, and such liability of Leasehold
     Mortgagee (or Trustee) shall terminate upon the Leasehold Mortgagee (or
     Trustee) assigning such rights and interests to another party or
     relinquishing such possession, as the case may be, provided


                                         -9-
<PAGE>

     that such termination of liability as to the Leasehold Mortgagee (or
     Trustee) shall not extinguish any default hereunder or any such liability
     as to any other person or persons.

          (c)  Should any Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee acquire Lessee's
     interest in this Lease and the Demised Premises by foreclosure or other
     appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, or as a result of any other
     action or remedy provided for by any Leasehold Mortgage, or by a proper
     conveyance from Lessee, such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee shall take
     Lessee's interest in the Demised Premises subject to all the provisions of
     this Lease; and shall, so long as and only so long as it shall be the owner
     of the leasehold interest, assume personally the obligations of Lessee
     under this Lease.

          (d)  Should any Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee acquire Lessee's
     interest in this Lease and in the Demised Premises by foreclosure or other
     appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, or as a result of any other
     action or remedy provided for by any Leasehold Mortgage, or by proper
     conveyance from Lessee, such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee may, subject to
     the provisions of Article XII, assign this Lease by sale or otherwise. Any
     assignee of such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee, or any purchaser of the
     leasehold interest from such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee, or any person
     taking through any other means from such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee
     and/or their respective successors in interest shall take such leasehold
     interest subject to all the agreements, conditions, covenants and terms of
     this Lease on the part of Lessee to be kept, observed and performed, and
     shall as a condition of such assignment, purchase or other taking, assume
     and agree by writing in form approved by and delivered to Lessor to perform
     all such agreements, conditions, covenants and terms, whereupon the
     assignor thereof shall be relieved thereafter of any liability hereunder.

          (e)  No such foreclosure, assignment, sale or hypothecation of the
     Demised Premises shall relieve, release, or in any manner affect the
     liability of Lessee under this Lease.

          (f)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
     Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee shall have until thirty (30) days after the
     later of (i) notice or (ii) the expiration of the cure period given to
     Lessee under this Lease to cure any default under this Lease, provided that
     if such default is a non-monetary default and is not capable of cure within
     such thirty (30) day period, then such period as is reasonably necessary to
     cure such default, so long as such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee shall
     diligently proceed to do so. If the non-monetary default is such that
     possession of the Demised Premises is necessary to cure the same, then the
     period of time within which the Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee may cure
     shall be extended by the period of time necessary for the Leasehold
     Mortgagee or Trustee to acquire Lessee's interest in this Lease and the
     Demised Premises by foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings (which
     extension shall include any period of time during which the Leasehold
     Mortgagee or Trustee is prohibited or delayed from commencing or
     prosecuting such proceedings by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of
     Lessee), provided


                                         -10-
<PAGE>

     that the Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee promptly commences and diligently
     prosecutes such proceedings.

          (g)  Deliberately Omitted.

          (h)  Lessor shall not agree to any mutual termination or accept any
     surrender of this Lease, nor shall Lessor consent to any material amendment
     or modification of this Lease, without the prior written consent of each
     Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee.

          (i)  Lessor agrees to execute such amendments or modifications of this
     Lease as may be reasonably required by a Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee, at
     Lessee's request, provided that any such amendments and modifications do
     not in any material respect diminish any right or increase any obligation
     of, or adversely affect, Lessor and are in form reasonably satisfactory to
     Lessor and the holder of the Fee Mortgage.

     SECTION 11.4

          (a)  Upon termination of this Lease by reason of rejection of this
     Lease in a bankruptcy of Lessor or for any other reason (other than as a
     result of the Fee Transfer), Lessor shall give notice thereof to the first
     priority Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee, and such Leasehold Mortgagee or
     Trustee shall have the option, upon notice to Lessor deposited in the mails
     not later than ninety (90) days after notice *om Lessor of such
     termination, to elect to receive, in its own name or in the name of its
     nominee or designee, from Lessor a new lease of the Demised Premises for
     the unexpired balance of the Term hereof, or any renewal or extension
     hereof, on the same terms and conditions as are in this Lease set forth,
     which new lease shall be effective as of the date of termination of this
     Lease and Lessor agrees promptly to execute such lease, provided:

               (i)  such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee shall simultaneously
          with the giving of such notice cure any monetary default of Lessee;
          and

               (ii) such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee immediately commences to
          remedy, and thereafter diligently pursues the remedy of, any
          non-monetary default of Lessee, excluding those which by their very
          nature are incapable of cure by any other person.

          (b)  The Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee, or the nominee or designee of
     either, shall thereafter observe and perform all covenants and conditions
     in such new lease contained on the part of Lessee to be observed and
     performed. Any such new lease shall have priority equal to this Lease. If
     such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee (or nominee or designee) shall become
     lessee under such new lease and shall subsequently assign such new lease in
     accordance with Article XII herein, then such Leasehold Mortgagee or
     Trustee (or nominee or designee) shall thereupon be relieved of liability
     under such new lease, provided



                                         -11-
<PAGE>

     that the assignee expressly assumes all liabilities and obligations of
     lessee under such new lease thereafter accruing, and Lessee furnishes
     Lessor a copy of such assignment and assumption. The termination of this
     Lease prior to the date on which this Lease expires shall not terminate the
     right of such Leasehold Mortgagee or Trustee (or nominee or designee) to a
     new lease under this Article X1.

                                     ARTICLE XII

                         ASSIGNMENT. TRANSFERS AND SUBLETTING

     SECTION 12.1   The parties shall have the right at any time and from time
to time during the Term hereof to assign, sell or otherwise transfer their
respective interests, in whole or in part, in this Lease and the estate created
by this Lease in accordance with the requirements of the REA; provided, however,
that (a) each such assignment, sale or transfer shall expressly be made subject
to the provisions of this Lease, and (b) any such assignment, sale or transfer
shall be subject to the Discharge and Release provisions of Article XIII hereof.

     SECTION 12.2   Lessee shall have the right at any time and from time to
time during the Term hereof to sublet all or any part or parts of the Demised
Premises and to assign, encumber, extend, or renew any sublease, provided that:

          (a)  each such sublease shall expressly be made subject to the
     provisions of this Lease;

          (b)  each such sublease shall expire, by its express terms, no later
     than the end of the Term of this Lease;

          (c)  Lessee remains primarily obligated to perform Lessee's
     obligations hereunder; and

          (d)  Lessee shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that each sublease
     entered into after the Term of this Lease commences shall contain a
     provision requiring the sublessee, so long as the terms of such sublease
     are recognized and honored, to attorn to Lessor if Lessee defaults under
     this Lease, and if the subtenant is notified of Lessee's default and
     instructed to make subtenant's rental payments to Lessor.

     SECTION 12.3   Lessor agrees, upon written request by Lessee and subject to
the prior agreement of sublessees, to attorn and make payments to Lessor as
provided in Section 12.2 hereof, and that Lessor shall execute a non-disturbance
and attornment agreement upon commercially reasonable terms and in a form and
substance acceptable to Lessor and the holder of the Fee Mortgage, which shall
not require Lessor or the holder of the Fee Mortgage to assume any obligation to
construct the Bazaar improvements.

of Default shall be deemed to have occurred:

          (a)  if default shall be made in the payment of any Property Rent
     payable under this Lease or any part thereof, when and as the same shall
     become due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of
     ninety (90) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; or

          (b)  if default shall be made in the payment of any other amounts
     payable under this Lease or any part thereof, when and as the same shall
     become due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of
     forty-five (45) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; or

          (c)  notwithstanding the foregoing, if any mechanics' lien encumbers
     the Demised Premises (other than as may be created by Lessor or its agents)
     for more than twenty (20) days following actual notice to Lessee, and
     Lessee shall have failed to bond around same in accordance with applicable
     law, or have deposited an equivalent amount with the holder of the Fee
     Mortgage. Any amount so deposited shall be released to the party entitled
     to same upon the resolution of the claim underlying the mechanics lien.

     SECTION 14.2   If any Event of Default occurs arising from the nonpayment
of any Property Rents or any other amounts payable under this Lease, Lessor
shall have the right to sue for each installment of such Property Rent or such
other amounts as the same becomes due.

     SECTION 14.3   If any Event of Default occurs other than one arising from
the nonpayment of rents ("Nonmonetary Default"), this Lease shall remain in full
force and effect and, if no resolution regarding the Event of Default can be
obtained by agreement of the parties, Lessor shall be required to obtain its
remedies by arbitration in accordance with the REA; provided, however, that
following an arbitration decision requiring Lessee to cure a Nonmonetary
Default, Lessee shall have an additional thirty (30). days after the issuance of
the said decision to cure any such default and, if the default cannot be cured
within such thirty (30) day period, Lessee shall diligently pursue such cure.


                                         -13-

     SECTION 14.4   No failure by Lessor or Lessee to insist upon the strict
performance of any provision of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy
consequent upon a breach hereof and no acceptance of full or partial rent during
the continuance of any such breach (and/or the application thereof toward cure
of the earliest occurring default) shall constitute a waiver of any such breach
or of such provision. No provision hereof to be complied with by Lessee or
Lessor, and no breach thereof shall be waived, terminated, altered or modified,
except by a written instrument executed by Lessor and Lessee. No waiver of any
breach shall affect or alter this Lease, but each and every provision of this
Lease shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then
existing or subsequent breach thereof.

     SECTION 14.5   The remedies provided herein may be exercised by the parties
entitled thereto singly, in combination, and cumulatively.

     SECTION 14.6   Amounts payable under this Lease which become delinquent
shall bear interest, from the delinquency date until paid in full, at the rate
set forth in Section 20.9 of the REA. When the party who owes the delinquent
amount pays it, the party shall also pay the interest accrued thereon. No amount
shall be considered delinquent hereunder until after the expiration of any
applicable notice period or grace period.

     SECTION 14.7   If default shall be made by Lessor in the performance of any
obligations of Lessor under this Lease and such default shall continue for a
period of thirty (30) days, and Lessor fails within such period to commence to
cure such default and continuously and diligently thereafter to proceed with the
curing of such default by the earliest date by which it may through continuous,
diligent effort be cured (it being intended that in connection with a default
not susceptible of being cured with due diligence within thirty (30) days, the
time of Lessor within which to cure the same shall be extended for such period
as may be necessary to complete the same with all due diligence), then Lessee
shall have all rights and remedies available at law or in equity and not
otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Lease or the REA. The holder of
the Fee Mortgage shall be entitled to receive notice and exercise the same or
reciprocal rights as a Leasehold Mortgagee has under Section 11.3 in connection
with a default by Lessee hereunder.

                         INVALIDITY OF PARTICULAR PROVISIONS

     SECTION 15.1   If any provision of this Lease or the application thereof to
any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable,
the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such provision to persons or
circumstances other than those to which it is held invalid or unenforceable,
shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Lease shall be valid
and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

and agree that the proper forum for the litigation of any and all disputes or

alleged by the certifying party, and (e) setting forth any other matters
reasonably required by the requesting party. Any such statements may be relied
upon by any existing owner or prospective purchaser or any present or
prospective lender upon the security of the Demised Premises. The failure of
either party to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive and
binding upon that party (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect, without
modification except as may be represented by the requesting party, and that the
status of rent payments is as certified by the requesting party, (ii) that there

                              Employment Agreement


                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      This Employment Agreement ("Agreement"), is made and entered into by and
between Aladdin Gaming LLC ("Company"), Aladdin Holdings, LLC, ("Aladdin
Holdings") and Lee Galati ("Executive").

      WHEREAS, the Company considers it important and in its best interest and
the best interest of its owners to foster the employment of key management
personnel and desires to retain the services of Executive on the terms and
subject to the conditions in this Agreement;

      WHEREAS, the Executive desires to accept employment by the Company to

this Agreement;

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the following mutual
covenants and agreements, the parties agree as follows:

      1. Employment. The Company hereby employs Executive as Senior Vice
President - Human Resources of the Aladdin Hotel and Casino and Executive hereby
accepts such employment with the Company for the compensation and on the terms
and subject to the conditions in this Agreement.

      2. Term. The term of the Executive's employment under this Agreement
("Term") shall commence on July 1, 1997 ("Commencement Date") and shall continue
for four (4) years, to and including June 30, 2001, unless earlier terminated as
provided in this Agreement. (The date of any termination of this Agreement as
provided herein is the "Termination Date".)

      3. Duties and Responsibilities. During the Term, Executive will serve as
Senior Vice President - Human Resources of the Aladdin Hotel and Casino and will
have such authority, responsibilities and duties as are customarily associated
with this position. At all times Executive shall faithfully and to the best of
his abilities perform his duties and responsibilities hereunder to the

devote his full time, efforts and attention to the business and affairs of the
Company, use his best efforts to further the interest of the Company and at all

                                        1

      4. Compensation.

            a. Salary. For his services hereunder, the Company shall pay
      Executive a base salary ("Base Salary") of $150,000.00 for each
      consecutive 12-month period during the Term beginning with the
      Commencement Date. (Each such consecutive 12-month period is an
      "Employment Year"). Executive's Base Salary will be prorated for any
      partial Employment Year. The Board of Directors will consider increases in
      the Base Salary no less frequently than annually, commencing at the end of
      the first Employment Year hereunder and will be based upon criteria
      determined by the Board of Directors and applicable to other members of
      the executive management group. Any such increases, however, shall be in
      the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, but there shall be no
      reduction in Base Salary during the Term. The Base Salary shall be payable
      in equal periodic installments subject to customary deductions for social
      security, other taxes and amounts customarily withheld from salaries of
      employees of the Company, all in accordance with the Company's usual and
      customary payroll practices.

            b. Annual Bonus. From and after the Operational Date as defined in
      Section 4(f)(1)(i) hereof, Executive is eligible to receive from the
      Company an annual cash bonus, provided Executive is employed by the
      Company on the date the Board of Directors grants the bonus. The bonus
      will be based on relevant criteria or performance standards as determined
      by the Board of Directors in a bonus plan which will be competitive with
      industry standards.

            c. Benefits. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to receive
      from the Company such health, pension, retirement and other employee
      benefits as the Company provides to other members of the executive
      management group. During the Term, the Company at its expense will provide
      Executive with term life insurance in the amount of Executive's annual
      Base Salary. During the Term, the Company at its expense will provide
      Executive with long-term disability coverage under a group long-term
      disability plan the Company provides other members of the executive
      management group.

            d. Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to two (2) weeks paid
      vacation for each Employment Year, prorated for any partial Employment
      Year. The Board of Directors in its discretion may increase Executive's
      vacation entitlement. The timing and duration of specific vacations will
      take into account the business needs of the Company and will be mutually
      agreed to by the parties. In the event any such vacation is not used by
      Executive in any Employment Year, the Executive has a right to accumulate
      and carry forward such number of unused vacation days from year to year as
      may be consistent with the Company's policy therefor for other


                                        2
<PAGE>

      members of the executive management group, in effect from time to time.
      Upon termination of employment, all unused vacation time shall be paid to
      Executive.

            e. Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company shall pay all reasonable
      expenses incurred by Executive in the performance of his duties and
      responsibilities for the Company. Executive shall submit to the Company
      statements and documentation reflecting such expenses so incurred, with
      such detail, backup and confirmation as the Company may reasonably
      require. Subject to any audit the Company deems necessary, the Company
      shall promptly reimburse Executive the full amount of any such expenses
      incurred by Executive.

            f. Right to Purchase LLC Membership Interest. On the Commencement
      Date, Executive has the right to purchase a membership interest equal to
      twenty-five hundredths (0.25%) percent of the total membership interests
      of the Company for a total purchase price of $150.00, which amount equals
      100% of the fair market value of Executive's membership interest on the
      date of purchase (the "Restricted Membership Interest").

            (1)   During the Term, the Restricted Membership Interest vests as
                  follows:

                        (i) 25% of the Restricted Membership Interest on the
                  date that the Company opens and begins operating the newly
                  renovated and expanded Aladdin Hotel & Casino (the
                  "Operational Date"); and

                        (ii) 25% of the Restricted Membership Interest on each
                  succeeding annual anniversary of the Operational Date to the
                  Termination Date;

            (2)   Upon expiration of the four-year term of this Agreement
                  (provided Executive was employed by the Company at such
                  expiration), any unvested Restricted Membership Interest vests
                  only as follows:

                        (i) if the Company does not continue to employ Executive
                  for reason(s) not constituting Cause as defined in Section
                  5(d)(1-4) hereof or if the Executive does not continue his
                  employment at the request of the Company for reason(s)
                  constituting Good Reason as defined in Section 5(d)(5), then
                  an additional 25% of the Restricted Membership Interest vests;
                  or


                                        3
<PAGE>

                        (ii) if the Executive's employment with the Company
                  continues, the 25% of the Restricted Membership Interest
                  continues to vest in accordance with Section 4(f)(1)(ii) above
                  as though there had been no Termination Date.

            (3)   If Executive's employment terminates, the Company has the
                  right to repurchase any unvested portion of the Restricted
                  Membership Interest for the purchase price originally paid by
                  Executive.

            (4)   If, after the Operational Date, the Company remains an LLC,
                  has profits from operations but does not make to Executive
                  membership distributions sufficient to pay Executive's tax
                  obligations from such profits, then the Company will
                  distribute sufficient cash for Executive to satisfy such
                  obligations, but only to the extent such distributions are not
                  sufficient to meet such tax obligations.

            g. Executive's Put Right. Executive has the right but not the
      obligation to sell his vested Restricted Membership Interest (or shares
      exchanged by such Interest) back to the Company only in the following
      circumstances:

            (1)   The Company's IPO has not occurred upon expiration of the
                  original four-year term of this Agreement and Company does not
                  continue to employ Executive for reason(s) not constituting
                  Cause as defined in Section 5(d)(1-4) hereof or the Executive
                  does not continue his employment at the request of the Company
                  for reason(s) constituting Good Reason as defined in Section
                  5(d)(5). This Put right must be exercised in writing by
                  Executive within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the
                  four-year term hereunder or it shall become void and without
                  further effect.

            (2)   The Company's IPO has not occurred upon Executive becoming
                  100% vested in Restricted Membership Interest. This Put right
                  must be exercised in writing by Executive within 30 days of
                  Executive being 100% vested or it shall become void and
                  without further effect.

            The Put purchase price is the fair market value of such Interest (or
      shares) on the Valuation Date. Under this Agreement, the Valuation Date is
      (i) the expiration of the four-year term of this Agreement, in the event
      of a Put under Section 4(g)(i), or (ii) the date Executive becomes 100%
      vested, in the event of a Put under Section 4(g)(2). In either case of (i)
      or (ii) in the preceding sentence, the fair market value shall be
      determined by an independent appraisal firm mutually agreed to by the


                                        4
<PAGE>

      Company and Executive, with the cost of such appraisal being paid by the
      Company. If Executive exercises the Put hereunder, the Company must
      purchase the Restricted Membership Interest or shares within ninety (90)
      days of Executive's exercise of the Put.

            h. Company's Call Right. If, prior to the date of the Company's IPO,
      the Company terminates Executive for Cause as defined in Section 5(d)
      hereof (including Executive quitting without Good Reason under Section
      5(d)(5)), then the Company shall have the right but not the obligation to
      purchase any vested Restricted Membership Interest (or shares exchanged by
      such Interest) within thirty (30) days of the Termination Date at a price
      equal to two (2) times the price Executive originally paid the Company for
      such Restricted Membership Interest. The Call right must be exercised in
      writing by the Company within thirty (30) days of the Termination Date or
      it shall become void and without further effect. If the Company exercises
      the Call hereunder, Executive must tender such Interest or shares and
      otherwise complete the transaction hereunder within thirty (30) days of
      the Company's exercise of the Call.

            i. Auto Allowance. During the Term, the Company shall pay Executive
      an auto allowance of $300.00 per month.

      5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate in accordance with the
following provisions:

            a. Expiration of the Term. Unless earlier terminated in accordance
      with the provisions hereof, this Agreement shall terminate upon expiration
      of the four-year term as provided in Section 2.

            b. Death. If the Executive dies during the Term, this Agreement
      shall terminate, with the Termination Date being the date of the
      Executive's death.

            c. Disability. If the Executive has been absent from service to the
      Company as required in this Agreement for a period of ninety (90) days or
      more during any one-hundred eighty (180) day period during the Term as a
      result of any physical or mental disability, the Company has the right to
      terminate this Agreement, the Termination Date being ten (10) days after
      notice thereof is given to Executive.

            d. Termination by Company for Cause. The Company has the right to
      terminate this Agreement for Cause as defined herein, such termination to
      be effective immediately upon notice thereof from the Company to
      Executive. For


                                        5
<PAGE>

      purposes of this Agreement, Cause shall mean Executive's (1) conviction of
      any felony; (2) embezzlement or misappropriation of money or property of
      the Company; (3) denial, rejection, suspension or revocation of any gaming
      license or permit; (4) Executive's material breach of Section 6 hereof
      which material breach has an adverse impact on the Company; (5) Executive
      quits his employment with the Company without Good Reason. Good Reason is
      defined as (i) the assignment to Executive of duties materially
      inconsistent with his position and title without his consent, or (ii) a
      material reduction in Executive's duties, authorities and responsibilities
      without his consent, or (iii) a reduction by the Company in Executive's
      Base Salary, in effect immediately prior to such reduction, without his
      consent, provided Executive gives the Company written notice specifying
      such assignment or reduction and the Company has not cured or abated such
      assignment or reduction within 20 days thereafter.

            e. Termination by Company Without Cause (Termination by Executive
      With Good Reason). Subject to Section 5(f), the Company has the right to
      terminate this Agreement without Cause (and the Executive has the right to
      terminate this Agreement for Good Reason as defined in Section 5(d)
      hereof) by giving the other party written notice thereof and the Company
      shall provide Executive with the benefits set forth in Section 8(e). A
      termination under this Section 5(e) includes Executive's termination
      without Cause following a Change of Control. For purposes of this
      Agreement, a Change of Control shall be deemed to occur only if any two of
      the three directors who are serving on the Board of Directors of the
      Company as representatives of the Sommer Family Trust or related entities
      on the date of the execution of this Agreement cease to be directors of
      the Company.

            f. Special Right of Company to Terminate this Agreement. If, within
      twelve (12) months from the Commencement Date, substantially complete
      project financing sufficient for substantially full renovation and
      construction for the Aladdin Hotel & Casino Redevelopment and Expansion
      Project as set forth in the presentation to GW Vegas prepared by Westwood
      Capital LLC and dated July, 1996 (or as subsequently modified) and as
      finally approved by the Clark County Commission, has not been secured, the
      Company shall have the right but not the obligation to terminate Executive
      and this Agreement and Executive shall only be entitled to the benefits in
      Section 8(f) hereof.

      6. Executive's Covenants: The Executive acknowledges that the Company has
a substantial, legitimate and continuing interest in the protection of its
business relationships with others including without limitation current and
prospective employees, consultants, advisors, customers, vendors, suppliers,
partners or joint venturers, and


                                        6
<PAGE>

financing sources, and in the protection of its Confidential Information, and
has invested substantial sums, time and effort and will continue to invest
substantial sums, time and effort to develop, maintain and protect such
relationships and Information. Accordingly, Executive covenants and agrees as
follows:

            a. Confidentiality. During the Term and thereafter, Executive shall
      keep secret and retain in strictest confidence and shall not, without the
      prior written consent of the Company, furnish, make available or disclose
      to any third party or use for the benefit of himself or any third party
      any Confidential Information. Confidential Information is information
      related to or concerning the Company and its businesses which is
      confidential, proprietary or not generally known to and cannot be readily
      ascertained through proper means by persons or entities (including the

      Executive quitting without Good Reason under Section 5(d)(5)). Under this
      paragraph, Executive agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly,
      whether as employee, owner, partner, agent, director, officer, consultant,
      independent consultant or stockholder (except as the beneficial owner of
      not more than 2% of the outstanding shares of a corporation, any of the
      capital stock of which is listed on any national or regional securities
      exchange or quoted in the daily listing of over-the-counter market
      securities and, in each case, in which the Executive does not undertake
      any management or operational or advisory role) or in any other capacity,
      for his own account or for the benefit of any other person or entity,
      establish, engage, work for or be connected in any manner with any person
      or entity which is, at the time, engaged in a business which is in
      competition with the business of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries
      or affiliates); it being understood that for purposes of this Section
      6(b), the business of


                                        7
<PAGE>

      owning, managing, operating or financing a casino or similar gaming
      activities in Clark County, Nevada, shall be deemed to be business in
      which the Company is engaged; provided, however, nothing herein prohibits
      Executive from working for a competing business outside Clark County,
      Nevada, so long as Executive's work outside Clark County, Nevada, does not
      involve competition with the business of the Company in Clark County,
      Nevada.

            c. Employees of the Company. For one (1) year following the
      Termination Date, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, or
      cause others to solicit, for employment by any person or entity other than
      the Company, any employee of the Company or encourage any such employee to
      leave employment with the Company.

            d. Property of the Company. Executive acknowledges and agrees that
      all memoranda, notes, lists, records and other documents or papers,
      including copies thereof, containing or reflecting Confidential
      Information (whether or not such items are kept or stored in computer
      memories, microfiche, hard copy or any other manner) made or compiled by
      Executive or made available to Executive are and remain the property of
      the Company ("Company Property") and shall be delivered to the Company
      promptly upon any termination of this Agreement under Section 5 hereof.
      Executive shall retain no copies of Company Property following the
      Termination Date.

            e. Reasonableness and Severability of Covenants. The Executive
      acknowledges and agrees that the Executive's Covenants herein are
      necessary for the protection of the Company's legitimate interests, are
      reasonable and valid in duration and geographical scope, and in all other
      respects. If any court determines that any of the Executive Covenants, or
      any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the
      Restrictive Covenants shall not thereby be affected and shall be given
      full effect without regard to the invalid portions.

            f. Blue-Pencilling. If any court determines that any of the
      Executive Covenants, or any part thereof, is unenforceable because of the
      duration or geographical scope of such provision, such court shall have
      the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case
      may be, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be
      enforceable.

      7. Non-Disparagement. Each of the parties agrees that after the
Termination Date, neither shall, publicly or privately, disparage or make any
statements (written or oral) that could impugn the integrity, acumen (business
or otherwise), ethics or business practices, of the other, except in each case,
to the extent (but solely to the extent)
