          PART I

General

     Riviera Black Hawk, Inc., a Colorado  corporation,formed on August 18, 1997
is wholly owned by Riviera Operating  Corporation,  a Nevada corporation,  which
is, in turn, wholly owned by Riviera Holdings Corporation, a Nevada corporation.
Riviera  Holdings  Corporation,  through its wholly  owned  subsidiary,  Riviera
Operating Corporation, owns and operates the Riviera Hotel & Casino (Riviera Las
Vegas) located on "The Strip" Las Vegas Boulevard in Las Vegas,  Nevada.  Opened
in 1955,  the Riviera Las Vegas has  developed a  long-standing  reputation  for
delivering high quality,  traditional Las Vegas-style gaming,  entertainment and
other amenities.  The Company is a development  stage enterprise at December 31,
1999 that had not commenced operations.  Riviera Black Hawk, Inc. (Riviera Black
Hawk) operates a limited-stakes  casino in Black Hawk,  Colorado which opened on
February 4, 2000. Riviera Gaming Management of Colorado, Inc. an indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of Riviera Holdings Corporation will manage the casino through
a subsidiary.

           Riviera  Black Hawk is located at the  entrance  of the City of Black
Hawk, Colorado, about forty miles west of Denver and is one of the first casinos
encountered when traveling from Denver to the Black Hawk/Central City market. It
is located on the corner of Mill and Main Street,  across from Colorado  Central
Station,  which has been the most  successful  casino in Colorado.  In addition,
Riviera  Black Hawk is located  across the street from the Isle of Capri Casino,
which is of  similar  size to our casino in terms of gaming  positions.  Riviera
Black Hawk  offers  parking for 520  vehicles,  of which 92% are  covered,  with
convenient and free self-park and valet options.

Gaming

           Riviera Black Hawk has 30,000  square feet of casino space.  The
casino has approximately  1,000 slot machines and 12 gaming  tables,  including
 blackjack, three card poker, Let It Ride(R) and Bonus 6(R).

Restaurants

           The  quality,  value and  variety of food  served  are  critical to
attracting  Black Hawk visitors.  Riviera Black Hawk offers one restaurant,  the
Red Rose, a full-service,  casual dining restaurant  located on the second floor
of the facility with a seating capacity of up to 265 people. The flexible design
of the  restaurant allows for the  conversion  of a portion of the dining area
into private seating for up to 88 people for private parties and special events.
In addition to the restaurant, our casino also includes two bars, one located in
the  entertainment  area and the other one on the casino floor.  There is also a
coffee bar, the Coffee Bean, on the ground floor near valet parking.

Entertainment

     Riviera  Black Hawk includes a 7,000 square feet,  multi-use  entertainment
center  located on the second  level of the  facility  with the capacity to seat
approximately  500 people.  This is one of the largest  facilities  in the Black
Hawk  market  enabling  us to feature  entertainment  performances  and  special
events.  When  not in use,  the  entertainment  center  is available for
meetings, parties and other promotional events.

Marketing strategy

     The initial  participants in this market were small,  privately held gaming
facilities  whose  inability  to offer  convenient  parking  and a full range of
traditional casino amenities limited market growth. Subsequently, larger casinos
offering such amenities have entered the market,  have been gaining market share
and have  contributed  to the  consistent  growth in the overall  market.  As of
December 31, 1999, there were 30 casinos in the Black  Hawk/Central City market,
with eight casinos each offering  more than 400 gaming  devices.  Isle of Capri,
located  across  the street  from our casino  with  approximately  1,100  gaming
machines and 1,000 covered parking  spaces,  has been the market leader in terms
of win per gaming device.
                                        3
<PAGE>

           We plan to attract customers to our casino by implementing  marketing
strategies and promotions designed specifically for this market. In doing so, we
hope to create customer loyalty and benefit from repeat visits by our customers.
Specific  marketing  programs to support this strategy include the Riviera Black
Hawk Player's Club and "V.I.P." services offered to repeat gaming customers. The
Riviera  Black Hawk Player's  Club is a promotion  that rewards  casino play and
repeat visits to the casino with various  privileges  and amenities such as cash
bonuses, logo gift items and invitations to special events,  including free slot
tournaments and parties.  We have used the Player's Club promotion in our casino
in Las Vegas and,  in our  capacity as manager of the  Riviera  Black Hawk,  are
tailoring it for the Black  Hawk/Central City market to implement at our casino.
"V.I.P."  services  are  available  to the highest  level of players and include
special valet and self-parking  services,  complimentary  food and entertainment
offerings and special events specifically designed for this group of customers.

           We believe that we will benefit from strong "walk-in"  traffic due to
the  proximity  of our casino to the  Colorado  Central  Station and the Isle of
Capri  Casino.  We intend to develop  specific  marketing  programs  designed to
attract  these  "walk-in"  customers.  We  emphasize  quality  food and beverage
amenities with customer  friendly  service as a marketing tool. In addition,  we
will  provide  entertainment  programs  designed to meet the tastes of the Black
Hawk/Central  City market,  such as live music  performances by popular regional
and national groups.

           We will  utilize  proven  database  marketing  techniques  previously
implemented by our casino in Las Vegas. We plan to rely on database marketing in
order to best identify target customer  segments of the population and to tailor
the casino's  promotions  and amenities to our core group of customers.  We will
use the  current  database  maintained  by  Riviera  Las Vegas to  identify  and
stratify   slot  players   living  in  Colorado  for   appropriate   incentives.
Approximately  7,500 of these slot players have been  identified  as of December
31, 1999. In addition,  we will promote our casino by  advertising in newspapers
and on billboards in the local areas.

Geographical Markets

The Black Hawk/Central City Market

     Gaming  was first  introduced  to the  Black  Hawk/Central  City  market in
October 1991 following a state-wide  referendum  where Colorado  voters approved
limited stakes gaming for three historic mining towns - Black Hawk, Central City
and Cripple  Creek.  Limited stakes gaming is defined as a maximum single bet of
five  dollars.  Black  Hawk and  Central  City  are  contiguous  cities  located
approximately  40 miles west of Denver and about ten miles  north of  Interstate
Highway 70, the main east-west artery from Denver. Historically,  these two gold
mining communities were popular tourist towns.  However,  since the inception of
casino gaming in October  1991,  many of the former  tourist-related  businesses
have been displaced by gaming establishments.

           The first casino in the Black  Hawk/Central City market was opened in
October 1991 with 14 casinos open by the end of that year. The pace of expansion
increased further in 1992 with the number of casinos in the market peaking at 42
casinos.  However,  due to a  trend  of  consolidation  in the  market  and  the
displacement  of small  casinos  by the  entry  of  larger,  better  capitalized
operators, the number of casinos has declined to 30 as of December 31, 1999.

           The Black  Hawk/Central  City market  primarily  caters to "day-trip"
customers  from  Denver,  Boulder,  Fort Collins and Golden as well as Cheyenne,
Wyoming.  An estimated  adult  population  exceeding  2.3 million  people reside
within this 100-mile radius of Black Hawk. In addition,  residents  within a 100
mile radius of the City of Black Hawk had an estimated  average household income
in excess of $50,000 per annum in 1999.

           Since 1992,  the number of gaming  devices in the Black  Hawk/Central
City market has grown  approximately  33.9% from 7,252  devices in 1992 to 9,711
devices in 1999.  The total number of slot  machines has  increased  34.9% since
1992 to 9,555 in 1999  while the  total  number  of  tables  in the  market  has
decreased  with 156  tables  in the  market at the end of 1999.  Win per  gaming
device per day has  continued  to grow  despite  the  increase  in the number of
gaming devices.
                                        4
<PAGE>

           The City of Black Hawk has  experienced  more  significant  growth in
gaming  revenues than Central City since 1992.  The  popularity of Black Hawk in
comparison to Central City is due primarily to Black Hawk's  superior  access to
major highways,  as patrons must first pass through Black Hawk to access Central
City from Denver.  Due to this superior  location,  larger casino operators have
focused on  building in the City of Black  Hawk.  As a result,  casinos in Black
Hawk now generally  feature a larger average number of gaming  devices,  a wider
variety of amenities and convenient free parking for patrons. These factors have
contributed to growth in Black Hawk gaming revenues at a compound annual rate of
29% since 1992  compared to a more  moderate  growth for Central City of 5% over
the same  period.  The number of slot  machines  and tables in the City of Black
Hawk have increased 119% and 41%,  respectively  since 1992, while the number of
slot machines and tables in Central City have declined 39% and 57%, respectively
over the same period.

           The City of Black Hawk  experienced a 30% increase in gaming  revenue
in 1999, the greatest of any gaming venue in the United States.

     The  information  contained in this  discussion  of the Black Hawk/ Central
City market was derived  from  publicly  available  data,  except  where  stated
otherwise. While we believe these sources are reasonably reliable, no assurances
can be made regarding the accuracy of such information.

Competition

           The Black Hawk/Central City gaming market is characterized by intense
competition.  The  primary  competitive  factors  in the  market  are  location,
availability  and  convenience  of parking,  number of slot  machines and gaming
tables, types and pricing of non-gaming amenities,  name recognition and overall
atmosphere. Our main competitors are the larger gaming facilities,  particularly
those with considerable on-site or nearby parking and established reputations in
the local market. As of December 31, 1999 there were 19 gaming facilities in the
Black  Hawk  market  with  seven  casinos  each  offering  more than 400  gaming
positions.  The "Mardi Gras" casino  opened in March 2000 and features  over 600
slot machines.  In addition,  Isle of Capri is  constructing a hotel addition to
its casino.  Other  projects have also been  announced,  proposed,  discussed or
rumored for the Black Hawk/Central City market.

           We expect that the gaming  facilities  near the  intersection of Main
and Mill Streets will provide  significant  competition to our casino.  Colorado
Central  Station,  which has been the most  successful  casino in  Colorado,  is
located  across  the  street  from our  casino  and has  approximately  700 slot
machines,  20 gaming tables and approximately 700 valet parking spaces. The Isle
of Capri Casino,  operated by Casino America,  which opened in December 1998, is
located  directly  across the street from our casino and features  approximately
1,100  slot  machines,  14 table  games and  1,100  parking  spaces,  and had an
extremely successful first year of operation.

           The number of hotel rooms  currently in the Black  Hawk/Central  City
market is  approximately  170, with only two gaming  facilities  providing hotel
accommodations to patrons.  These include Harvey's Wagon Wheel Casino Hotel with
approximately 120 rooms and the Lodge at Black Hawk with approximately 50 rooms.
In  addition,  the  Isle  of  Capri  Casino  began  construction  in  1999 of an
approximately 235 room hotel on top of its recently  completed  casino.  Casinos
offering  hotel  accommodations  for  overnight  stay  may  have  a  competitive
advantage  over our casino.  However,  we believe  that  self-parking  is a more
effective   utilization  of  our  available   space  and  that  providing  hotel
accommodations  will not be a significant factor, but instead will contribute to
growth in the overall market.

           Historically,  the city of Black Hawk has enjoyed an  advantage  over
Central City because customers have to drive through Black Hawk to reach Central
City.  Central City has proposed the  development of a road directly  connecting
Central City and Black Hawk with  Interstate  70 which would allow  customers to
reach  Central  City  without  driving by or through  Black Hawk.  There  remain
significant financial and legal obstacles to the development of this road and it
is uncertain whether it will be developed over the near to intermediate term, or
developed at all.

           Currently,  limited  stakes  gaming in Colorado  is  constitutionally
authorized in Central City,  Black Hawk,  Cripple Creek and two Native  American
reservations in southwest Colorado.  However,  gaming could be approved in other
Colorado  communities in the future. The legalization of gaming closer to Denver
would likely have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations.
We also  compete  with  other  forms of gaming in  Colorado,  including  lottery
gaming, and horse and dog racing as well as other forms of entertainment.
                                        5
<PAGE>

           It is also  possible  that new forms of gaming could compete with our
casino.  Currently,  Colorado law does not authorize  video  lottery  terminals.
However,  Colorado law permits the  legislature,  with  executive  approval,  to
authorize new types of lottery gaming,  such as video lottery  terminals.  Video
lottery  terminals are games of chance,  similar to slot machines,  in which the
player  pushes a button that causes a random set of numbers or  characters to be
displayed on a video  screen.  The player may be awarded a ticket,  which can be
exchanged  for cash or credit play.  This form of gaming could compete with slot
machine gaming.

     Pursuant to a license agreement,  Riviera Holdings Corporation licensed the
use at the Black Hawk casino of all of the  trademarks,  service marks and logos
used by Riviera Las Vegas.  In addition,  the license  agreement  provides  that
additional  trademarks,  service marks and logos acquired or developed by us and
used at our other facilities will be subject to the license agreement.

Employees and Labor Relations

           Riviera Black Hawk opened on February 4, 2000 with  approximately 450
employees and plans to maintain that employee level. The Black Hawk/Central City
labor market is very  competitive.  Riviera  Black Hawk believes that it will be
able to maintain its current employee level. There can be no assurance, however,
that new and existing  casinos will not affect  Riviera Black Hawk's  ability to
maintain  its  current  employee  level.   There  are  currently  no  collective
bargaining agreements in Black Hawk casinos.

Regulation and Licensing

Colorado

Colorado Gaming and Liquor Regulation

Summary

         In general , Riviera Black Hawk, our principal  executive  officers and
those of Riviera  Holdings,  and any of our  employees  who are  involved in our
gaming  operations,  are  required to be found  suitable  for  licensure  by the
Colorado Gaming Commission. Colorado also requires that significant stockholders
of 5% or more of our stock be certified as suitable for licensure. Riviera Black
Hawk's retail gaming license was approved by the Colorado  Gaming  Commission on
November 18, 1999.

Background

           Pursuant to an amendment to the Colorado Constitution, limited stakes
gaming became lawful in the cities of Central City, Black Hawk and Cripple Creek
on October 1, 1991.  Limited  stakes  gaming means a maximum  single bet of five
dollars on slot machines and in the card games of blackjack and poker.

           Limited  stakes  gaming is confined to the  commercial  districts  of
these cities as defined by Central City on October 7, 1981, by Black Hawk on May
4, 1978,  and by Cripple  Creek on December 3, 1973.  In addition  the  Colorado
Amendment  restricts  limited  stakes gaming to  structures  that conform to the
architectural  styles and  designs  that were common to the areas prior to World
War I, and which  conform to the  requirements  of  applicable  city  ordinances
regardless of the age of the structures.  Under the Colorado Amendment,  no more
than 35% of the square  footage of any  building and no more than 50% of any one
floor of any building may be used for limited stakes  gaming.  Persons under the
age of 21 cannot  participate in limited stakes gaming.  The Colorado  Amendment
also  prohibits  limited  stakes gaming  between the hours of 2:00 a.m. and 8:00
a.m., and allows limited  stakes gaming to occur in  establishments  licensed to
sell alcoholic beverages.

           Further,  the Colorado  Amendment  provides  that, in addition to any
other  applicable  license  fees,  up to a maximum  of 40% of the total  amounts
wagered less  payouts to players may be payable by a licensee for the  privilege
of conducting limited stakes gaming. Such percentage is to be established by the
Colorado Commission on July 1 annually.
                                        6
<PAGE>

     The Colorado  Act declares  public  policy on limited  stakes  gaming to be
that:  (1) the  success  of  limited  stakes  gaming is  dependent  upon  public
confidence and trust that licensed  limited stakes gaming is conducted  honestly
and  competitively;  the rights of the  creditors  of licensees  are  protected;
gaming is free from criminal and corruptive  elements (2) public  confidence and
trust can be maintained  only by strict  regulation  of all persons,  locations,
practices,  associations  and  activities  related to the  operation of licensed
gaming  establishments and the manufacture or distribution of gaming devices and
equipment;  (3) all establishments  where limited stakes gaming is conducted and
where  gambling  devices  are  operated,  and  all  manufacturers,  sellers  and
distributors  of certain  gambling  devices  and  equipment  must  therefore  be
licensed,  controlled  and assisted to protect the public health,  safety,  good
order and the  general  welfare  of the  inhabitants  of the state to foster the
stability  and success of limited  stakes  gaming and to preserve  the  economy,
policies and free competition in Colorado; and (4) no applicant for a license or
other  approval  has any right to a license or to the  granting of the  approval
sought. Any license issued or other commission  approval granted pursuant to the
provisions of this Article is a revocable privilege,  and no holder acquires any
vested rights therein.

Regulatory Structure

           The  Colorado Act subjects  the  ownership  and  operation of limited
stakes gaming  facilities in Colorado to extensive  licensing and  regulation by
the  Colorado  Commission.  The  Colorado  Commission  has  full  and  exclusive
authority to promulgate,  and has promulgated,  rules and regulations  governing
the licensing,  conducting and operating of limited stakes gaming.  The Colorado
Act also created the  Colorado  Division of Gaming  within the Colorado  Revenue
Department  to license,  regulate and  supervise  the conduct of limited  stakes
gaming in Colorado.  The division is supervised and administered by the Director
of the Division of Gaming.

Gaming licenses

The Colorado Commission may issue:

slot machine manufacturer or distributor,

operator,

retail gaming,

support and

key employee gaming licenses.

           The first  three  licenses  require  annual  renewal by the  Colorado
Commission.  Support and key  employee  licenses are issued for two year periods
and are renewable by the Division  Director.  The Colorado  Commission has broad
discretion to condition, suspend for up to six months, revoke, limit or restrict
a license at any time and also has the authority to impose fines.

           An  applicant  for  a  gaming  license  must  complete  comprehensive
application forms, pay required fees and provide all information required by the
Colorado Commission and the Division of Gaming.  Prior to licensure,  applicants
must satisfy the  Colorado  Commission  that they are  suitable  for  licensing.
Applicants have the burden of proving their qualifications and must pay the full
cost of any  background  investigations.  There  is no limit on the cost of such
background investigations.

           Gaming employees must hold either a support or key employee  license.
Every retail gaming licensee must have a key employee  licensee in charge of all
limited stakes gaming  activities when limited stakes gaming is being conducted.
The Colorado  Commission may determine that a gaming  employee is a key employee
and, require that such person apply for a key employee license.

           A retail  gaming  license  is  required  for all  persons  conducting
limited stakes gaming on their  premises.  In addition,  an operator  license is
required  for all  persons who engage in the  business of placing and  operating
slot machines on the premises of a retailer. However, a retailer is not required
to hold an operator  license.  No person may have an ownership  interest in more
than three retail gaming  licenses.  A slot machine  manufacturer or distributor
license is required for all persons who manufacture,  import and distribute slot
machines in Colorado.

           The Colorado  Regulations require that every officer,  director,  and
stockholder of private  corporations or equivalent  office or ownership  holders
for non-corporate applicants, and every officer, director or stockholder holding
either a 5% or greater  interest or  controlling  interest of a publicly  traded
corporation  or owners of an  applicant  or  licensee  shall be a person of good
moral character and submit to a full background  investigation  conducted by the
Division of Gaming and the  Colorado  Commission.  The Colorado  Commission  may
require any person having an interest in a license to undergo a full  background
investigation  and pay the  cost  of  investigation  in the  same  manner  as an
applicant.

           Persons found  unsuitable by the Colorado  Commission may be required
immediately  to  terminate  any  interest,  association,  or  agreement  with or
relationship  to a  licensee.  A finding of  unsuitability  with  respect to any
officer, director, employee, associate, lender or beneficial owner of a licensee
or applicant  also may  jeopardize  the  licensee's  license or the  applicant's
application.  A license  approval may be conditioned upon the termination of any
relationship with unsuitable  persons.  A person may be found unsuitable because
of prior acts,  associations or financial conditions.  Acts that would lead to a
finding of  unsuitability  are those that would  violate the Colorado Act or the
Colorado  Regulations or that contravene the legislative purpose of the Colorado
Act.

Duties of licensees

           An  applicant  or licensee  must report to the  Division of Gaming or
Colorado  Commission  all leases not later than 30 days after the effective date
of the lease. Also, an applicant or a licensee, upon the request of the Colorado
Commission or the Division  Director,  must submit copies of all written  gaming
contracts and  summaries of all oral gaming  contracts to which it is or intends
to become a party. The Division Director or the Colorado  Commission may require
changes in the lease or gaming  contract  before an  applicant  is  approved  or
participation  in such  agreement is allowed or may require  termination  of the
lease or gaming contract.

           The Colorado Amendment and the Colorado Regulations require licensees
to maintain detailed records that account for all business transactions. Records
must be furnished upon demand to the Colorado Commission, the Division of Gaming
and other law enforcement  authorities.  The Colorado Regulations also establish
extensive  playing  procedures  and rules of play for poker,  blackjack and slot
machines.  Retail gaming  licenses  must adopt  comprehensive  internal  control
procedures.  Such  procedures  must be  approved  in advance by the  Division of
Gaming and  include the areas of  accounting,  surveillance,  security,  cashier
operations,  key control and fill and drop procedures,  among others.  No gaming
devices  may be used in  limited  stakes  gaming  without  the  approval  of the
Division Director or the Colorado Commission.

           Licensees  have  a  continuing  duty  to  immediately  report  to the
Division  of Gaming the name,  date of birth and social  security  number of all
persons who obtain an ownership, financial or equity interest in the licensee of
5% or  greater,  who have the  ability to  control  the  licensee,  who have the
ability to  exercise  significant  influence  over the  licensee or who loan any
money or other  thing of value to the  licensee.  Licensees  must  report to the
Division  of  Gaming  all  gaming  licenses,  and all  applications  for  gaming
licenses, in foreign jurisdictions.

           With limited  exceptions  applicable  to licensees  that are publicly
traded  entities,  no person may sell,  lease,  purchase,  convey or acquire any
interest in a retail  gaming or operator  license or business  without the prior
approval of the Colorado Commission.
                                        8
<PAGE>

           All agreements,  contracts,  leases,  or arrangements in violation of
the Colorado  Amendment,  the Colorado Act or the Colorado  Regulations are void
and unenforceable.

Taxes, fees and fines

           The  Colorado  Amendment  requires  an annual tax of up to 40% on the
total  amount  wagered  less all  payouts to players.  With  respect to games of
poker, the tax is calculated based on the sums wagered which are retained by the
licensee as compensation. Effective July 1 of each year, the Colorado Commission
establishes  the gaming tax for the following 12 months.  Currently,  the gaming
tax is:

 .25% on the first $2 million of these amounts;

2% on amounts from $2 million to $4 million;

4% on amounts from $4 million to $5 million;

11% on amounts from $5 million to $10 million;

16% on amounts from $10 million to $15 million; and

20% on amounts over $15 million.

           The Colorado  Commission  has  eliminated  the annual  device fee for
gaming device machines, blackjack tables and poker tables.

           The  municipality of Black Hawk assesses an annual device fee of $750
per device.  There is no statutory limit on state or city device fees, which may
be  increased  at the  discretion  of the Colorado  Commission  or the city.  In
addition,  a  business  improvement  fee of as  much as $102  per  device  and a
transportation  authority  device  fee of  $77.04  per  device  also  may  apply
depending upon the location of the licensed  premises in Black Hawk. The current
annual business improvement fee is $89.04.

     Black Hawk also imposes taxes and fees on other  aspects of the  businesses
of gaming  licensees,  such as parking,  alcoholic  beverage  licenses and other
municipal  taxes and  fees.  There  can be no  assurance  that tax rates or fees
applicable  to our casino will not be  increased  in the  future,  either by the
Colorado electorate,  legislation or action by the Colorado Commission, reducing
the  profitability  of our  operations.  Additionally,  from time to time,  some
federal  legislators  have  proposed the  imposition  of a federal tax on gaming
revenues.  Any such tax increase or new tax would reduce our cash flow and could
have a material adverse effect.

           Violation  of the  Colorado  Gaming Act or the  Colorado  Regulations
constitutes  a class 1  misdemeanor  which may subject the  violator to fines or
incarceration  or both.  A licensee  who  violates  the  Colorado  Gaming Act or
Colorado  Regulations is subject to suspension of the license for a period of up
to six months, fines, or both or to license revocation.

Requirements for publicly traded corporations

           The  Colorado   Commission   has  enacted  Rule  4.5,  which  imposes
requirements on publicly traded corporations holding gaming licenses in Colorado
and on gaming  licenses  owned  directly  or  indirectly  by a  publicly  traded
corporation,  whether  through a subsidiary or  intermediary  company.  The term
"publicly traded corporation"  includes  corporations,  firms, limited liability
companies, trusts, partnerships and other forms of business organizations.  Such
requirements  automatically  apply to any ownership  interest held by a publicly
traded corporation,  holding company or intermediary company thereof,  where the
ownership  interest  directly or indirectly  is, or will be upon approval of the
Colorado  Commission,  5% or more of the entire  licensee.  In any event, if the
Colorado  Commission  determines  that  a  publicly  traded  corporation,  or  a
subsidiary,  intermediary  company or holding  company has the actual ability to
exercise  influence  over a licensee,  regardless of the percentage of ownership
possessed by said  entity,  the  Colorado  Commission  may require the entity to
comply with the disclosure regulations contained in Rule 4.5.
                                        9

           Under  Rule  4.5,   gaming   licensees,   affiliated   companies  and
controlling  persons  commencing  a public  offering of voting  securities  must
notify the Colorado Commission no later than ten business days after the initial
filing of a registration  statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Licensed publicly traded corporations are also required to send proxy statements
to the Division of Gaming within 5 days after their  distribution.  Licensees to
whom Rule 4.5 applies must include in their charter  documents  provisions that:
restrict the rights of the  licensees to issue  voting  interests or  securities
except in accordance with the Colorado Gaming Act and the Colorado  Regulations;
limit the  rights of persons to  transfer  voting  interests  or  securities  of
licensees  except in  accordance  with the Colorado  Gaming Act and the Colorado
Regulations;  and provide that  holders of voting  interests  or  securities  of
licensees  found  unsuitable by the Colorado  Commission  may, within 60 days of
such finding of unsuitability, be required to sell their interests or securities
back  to the  issuer  at the  lesser  of the  cash  equivalent  of the  holders'
investment  or the market price as of the date of the finding of  unsuitability.
Alternatively,   the  holders   may,   within  60  days  after  the  finding  of
unsuitability, transfer the voting interests or securities to a suitable person,
as  determined  by the  Colorado  Commission.  Until  the  voting  interests  or
securities  are held by suitable  persons,  the issuer may not pay  dividends or
interest,  the  securities  may not be voted,  they may not be  included  in the
voting or securities of the issuer,  and the issuer may not pay any remuneration
in any form to the holders of the securities.

Pursuant to Rule 4.5, persons who acquire direct or indirect beneficial
ownership of

5% or more of any class of voting  securities of a publicly  traded  corporation
that is required to include in its articles of organization the Rule 4.5 charter
language provisions or

5% or  more  of  the  beneficial  interest  in a  gaming  licensee  directly  or
indirectly  through any class of voting  securities  of any  holding  company or
intermediary  company of a licensee,  referred to as qualifying  persons,  shall
notify the Division of Gaming within 10 days of such  acquisition,  are required
to submit all requested  information and are subject to a finding of suitability
as required by the Division of Gaming or the Colorado Commission. Licensees also
must notify any qualifying  persons of these  requirements.  A qualifying person
other than an  institutional  investor  whose  interest  equals 10% or more must
apply to the Colorado  Commission  for a finding of  suitability  within 45 days
after  acquiring  such  securities.  Licensees  must also notify any  qualifying
persons of these requirements.  Whether or not notified,  qualifying persons are
responsible for complying with these requirements.

           A qualifying  person who is an institutional  investor under Rule 4.5
and who  individually  or in  association  with  others,  acquires,  directly or
indirectly,  the  beneficial  ownership  of 15% or more of any  class of  voting
securities  must apply to the Colorado  Commission  for a finding of suitability
within 45 days after acquiring such interests.

           The  Colorado   Regulations  also  provide  for  exemption  from  the
requirements  for a finding of suitability  when the Colorado  Commission  finds
such action to be consistent with the purposes of the Colorado Act.

           Pursuant  to Rule  4.5,  persons  found  unsuitable  by the  Colorado
Commission  must be  removed  from any  position  as an  officer,  director,  or
employee  of a  licensee,  or  from a  holding  or  intermediary  company.  Such
unsuitable  persons also are  prohibited  from any  beneficial  ownership of the
voting  securities of any such entities.  Licensees,  or affiliated  entities of
licensees,  are subject to sanctions for paying  dividends or  distributions  to
persons found unsuitable by the Colorado  Commission,  or for recognizing voting
rights of, or paying a salary or any  remuneration  for services to,  unsuitable
persons.  Licensees or their  affiliated  entities  also may be  sanctioned  for
failing to pursue  efforts to require  unsuitable  persons to  relinquish  their
interest.  The Colorado  Commission  may  determine  that anyone with a material
relationship  to, or material  involvement  with,  a licensee  or an  affiliated
company must apply for a finding of suitability or must apply for a key employee
license.

Alcoholic Beverage Licenses

           The sale of alcoholic  beverages in gaming  establishments is subject
to strict  licensing,  control and  regulation  by state and local  authorities.
Alcoholic beverage licenses are revocable and  nontransferable.  State and local
licensing authorities have full power to limit,  condition,  suspend for as long
as six months or revoke any such licenses. Violation of state alcoholic beverage
laws may constitute a criminal  offense  resulting in  incarceration, fines or
both.

           There are  various  classes of retail  liquor  licenses  which may be
issued under the Colorado Liquor Code. A gaming  licensee may sell malt,  vinous
or  spirituous  liquors  only by the  individual  drink for  consumption  on the
premises.  Even though a retail gaming licensee may be issued various classes of
retail liquor  licenses,  such gaming  licensee may only hold liquor licenses of
the same class.  An application  for an alcoholic  beverage  license in Colorado
requires notice,  posting and a public hearing before the local liquor licensing
authority  prior to approval of the same.  The Colorado  Department of Revenue's
Liquor  Enforcement  Division must also approve the  application.  Riviera Black
Hawk's  hotel  and  restaurant  license  has been  approved  by both  the  local
licensing authority and the State Division of Liquor Enforcement.

Federal Registration

     Riviera  Black Hawk,  Inc. is required to annually  file with the  Attorney
General of the United  States in  connection  with the sales,  distribution,  or
operations of slot  machines.  All  requisite  filings for the present year have
been made.

Item 2.    Property

     Riviera  Black Hawk owns the Black Hawk land,  which is located on a 71,000
square foot parcel of real  property in Black Hawk,  Colorado  and  comprised of
approximately  32,000 square feet of gaming space and parking for  approximately
520 vehicles  (substantially all of which are covered), a 265 seat casual dining
restaurant,  two bars and an entertainment center with seating for approximately
500 people.

Item 3.    Legal Proceedings

           We may be a party to several  routine  lawsuits both as plaintiff and
as defendant  arising from the normal  operations of a casino. We do not believe
that the  outcome of such  litigation,  in the  aggregate,  will have a material
adverse effect on the financial position or results of our operations.


Item 4.    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

           Not applicable.


           PART II

Item 5.    Market for the Registrant's Common Stock and Related Security Holder

Item 6.           Selected Financial Data

                  Not applicable

     Item 7.  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
Results of Operations Results of Operations

           Riviera Black Hawk, opened for business on February 4, 2000.  Results
from  Operations  will be discussed in the Form 10Q for the period  ending March
31, 2000.  Preopening  expenses for the year ending December 31, 1999, totaled
$595,000 including payroll, rent, travel and other expenses. Interest expense
not capitalized during construction was $606,000 during 1999.  There were no
operating expenses in 1998 or 1997.

     As of December 31, 1999,  Riviera Holdings  Corporation  contributed  $15.1
million  to acquire  land for the casino in Black Hawk and $4.9  million in cash
for developing the land for the casino, for a total cash capital contribution of
$20 million.

     Future  operating  results are subject to significant  business,  economic,
regulatory and competitive  uncertainties and  contingencies,  many of which are
beyond our  control.  We  believe  that the  Riviera  Black Hawk will be able to
attract a  sufficient  number of patrons and  achieve the level of activity  and
revenues necessary to permit us to meet our obligations.  However,  there can be
no assurance that we will be able to achieve these results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The  Company  had cash and  short  term  investments  of $11.8  million  at
December 31, 1999. Restricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $7.1 million and
restricted short-term  investments totaled $2.8 million.  Restricted amounts are
for use in the  completion of the Black Hawk casino  project and for the related
13 percent First Mortgage Notes interest payments. Management believes that cash
flow from operations combined with the $11.8 million cash and short term
investments will be sufficient to cover the Company's debt service and enable
investment in budgeted capital expenditures for the next twelve months including
completion of the Black Hawk casino development.

     On June 3, 1999, the Company  completed a $45 million private  placement of
13 % First Mortgage  Notes.  The net proceeds of the placement were used to fund
the completion of Riviera Black Hawk's casino  project in Black Hawk,  Colorado.
Riviera  Holdings  Corporation  has not guaranteed the $45 million Riviera Black
Hawk notes, but has agreed to a "Keep Well Agreement" of $5 million per year (or
an aggregate  limited to $10 million) for the first three years of Riviera Black
Hawk operations to cover if (i) the $5.85 million  interest on such notes is not
paid by Riviera  Black Hawk and (ii) the amount by which Riviera Black Hawk cash
flow is less than $9.0  million per year.  The  Company  believes  that  Riviera
Holdings  Corporation  could satisfy this  requirement  if needed.  In addition,
Riviera Holdings Corporation has agreed to a "Capital Completion  Commitment" of
up to $10 million if the casino is not open by May 31, 2000.  The opening of the
casino on February 4, 2000  satisfied the  commitment  which will be released in
August of 2000. The Company has registered securities identical to the 13% Notes
under the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended.  On January 4, 2000, the Company
completed an exchange offer for such registered securities.

     Cash  flow  from  operations  may  not be  sufficient  to pay  100%  of the
principal of the $45 million 13% Notes at maturity on May 1, 2005.  Accordingly,
the  ability  of  Riviera  Black  Hawk to repay  the  Notes at  maturity  may be
dependent  upon our future cash flows and our ability to refinance  those notes.
There  can be no  assurance  that  the  Company  will be able to  refinance  the
principal  amount of the Notes at maturity.  Although  Riviera Black Hawk,  Inc.
can,  at any  time  prior  to May 1,  2001,  redeem  up to 35% of the  aggregate
principal  amount  of the 13%  notes at 113% with the  proceeds  of a  qualified
public  offering,  the subsidiary may not redeem 100% of the 13% Notes until May
1, 2002, at premiums  beginning at 106.5% and declining each  subsequent year to
par in 2004.

         The 13% Note Indentures provide that, in certain circumstances, Riviera
Black Hawk must offer to repurchase the Notes upon the occurrence of a change of
control or certain other events.  In the event of such  mandatory  redemption or
repurchase  prior to maturity,  the Company would be unable to pay the principal
amount of the Notes without a refinancing.

         The Note Indenture contains certain covenants,  which limit the ability
of Riviera  Black  Hawk,  Inc.  subject to  certain  exceptions,  to : (i) incur
additional indebtedness;  (ii) pay dividends or other distributions,  repurchase
capital  stock or other equity  interests or  subordinated  indebtedness;  (iii)
enter into certain transactions with affiliates; (iv) create certain liens; sell
certain  assets;  and (v) enter into certain  mergers and  consolidations.  As a
result of these  restrictions,  the ability of the  Company to incur  additional
indebtedness to fund operations or to make capital  expenditures is limited.  In
the  event  that  cash  flow  from  operations  is  insufficient  to cover  cash
requirements, the Company would be required to curtail or defer certain of their
capital  expenditure  programs  under these  circumstances,  which could have an
adverse effect on operations. At December 31, 1999, the Company believes that it
is in compliance with the covenants.

     In July 1999, the Company committed to a $11.1 million capital lease line
for 60 months at approximately 11.2 percent for gaming equipment,  furniture and
fixtures at the Black Hawk, Colorado casino.

     The Company  made draws on the  capital  lease line  beginning  in February
through  March 6 of 2000 in the  amount  of  $9,500,000  at a  weighted  average
interest rate of 10.5 percent. The Company does not expect to make further draws
on the lease line.

     Recently Adopted Accounting Standards - The American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants' Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of
Position No. 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities.  This standard
provides guidance on the financial reporting for start-up costs and organization
costs.  This standard  requires costs of start-up  activities  and  organization
costs to be expensed as incurred,  and is effective  for fiscal years  beginning
after December 15, 1998, although earlier application is encouraged.  Management
adopted  this  standard  in 1999.  The  effect  was to  recognize  approximately
$595,000 of pre-opening  expenses in the current year that would  otherwise have
been deferred.

     Recently Issued Accounting  Standards - The Financial  Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 133,  "Accounting for Derivatives," which is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. This statement  defines  derivatives
and  requires  qualitative  disclosure  of  certain  financial  and  descriptive
information about a company's  derivatives.  The Company will adopt SFAS No. 133
in the year ending December 31, 2001.  Management has not finalized its analysis
of this SFAS or the impact of this SFAS on the Company or the  Company's  future
consolidated financial statements.

Year 2000

         The Company  conducted a comprehensive  review of its computer  systems
and other systems for the purpose of assessing its potential  Year 2000 Problem,
and modified or replaced those systems which were not Year 2000 compliant. Based
upon  this  review,  systems  were  compliant  by  December  1999.  However,  if
modifications had not been made or completed on schedule,  the Year 2000 Problem
could have had a significant impact on the Company's operations.

         All costs  related to the Year 2000 Problem were  expensed as incurred,
while the cost of new hardware and software was  capitalized  and amortized over
its expected  useful life. The costs  associated  with Year 2000 compliance were
not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. As of
December 31,  1999,  the Company has incurred  costs of  approximately  $2,000
(primarily for internal labor) related to the system applications.

         In  addition,  the  Company  communicated  with its major  vendors  and
suppliers  to  determine  their  state of  readiness  relative  to the Year 2000
problem and the  company's  possible  exposure to Year 2000 issues of such third
parties.  The Company,  through  correspondence from major vendors or statements
obtained at Year 2000 disclosure  sites of major vendors,  was advised that such
vendors' software or products were Year 2000 compliant.  The Company experienced
no failure of a major vendor or supplier which impacted operations.

Forward Looking Statements

         The Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1998 provides a "safe
harbor" for certain  forward-looking  statements.  Certain matters  discussed in
this  filing  could  be  characterized  as  forward-looking  statements  such as
statements  relating  to plans for future  expansion,  as well as other  capital
spending,  financing  sources and effects of regulation  and  competition.  Such
forward-looking  statements involve important risks and uncertainties that could
cause  actual  results  to  differ  materially  from  those  expressed  in  such
forward-looking statements

Item 7a. Quantitative and  Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

         Market risks relating to our operations  result  primarily from changes
in interest  rates.  We invest our cash and cash  equivalents  in U.S.  Treasury
Bills with maturities of 90 days or less.

         As of  December  31,  1999,  we had $45.7  million in  borrowings.  The
borrowings  include  $45  million  notes  maturing  in 2006 and a vehicle loan
maturing in 2004. Interest on the $45 million notes is 13%
with  contingent  interest  if  certain  operating  results  are  achieved.  The
vehicle loan  has an interest rate of 9.0%.  The borrowings
also include $.7 million in a special  improvement  district  bond offering with
the City of Black  Hawk.  The  Company's  share of the debt on the SID  bonds of
$1,120,000 when the project is complete,  is payable over ten years beginning in
2000.  The special  improvement  district  bonds bear  interest  at 5.5%.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Riviera Black Hawk, Inc.
  (A Development Stage Company):

We have audited the  accompanying  balance sheets of Riviera Black Hawk, Inc. (a
Development Stage Company) (the "Company") as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and
the related  statements of operations  for the year ended  December 31, 1999 and
for the period from August 18, 1997 (date of  inception)  through  December  31,
1999, and of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1999, and for the period
from  August 18,  1997 (date of  inception)  through  December  31, 1999 and the
statements  of  stockholder's  equity for the years ended  December 31, 1999 and
1998, for the period from August 18, 1997 (date of inception)  through  December
31, 1997.  These financial  statements are the  responsibility  of the Company's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the  United  States of  America.  Those  standards  require  that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial  statement  presentation.   We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our  opinion,  such  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects,  the  financial  position of the  Company as of December  31, 1999 and
1998, and the results of its operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 and
for the period from August 18, 1997 (date of  inception)  through  December  31,
1999, and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, for the
period from August 18, 1997 (date of  inception)  through  December 31, 1999, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

The Company is in the  development  stage at December 31, 1999.  As discussed in
Note 1 to the  financial  statements,  successful  completion  of the  Company's
development program and, ultimately,  the attainment of profitable operations is
dependent upon future events,  including  achieving a level of revenues adequate
to support the Company's cost structure.

RIVIERA BLACK HAWK, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Organization  and Basis of  Presentation  - On  August  18,  1997  (date of
inception),  Riviera Black Hawk,Inc.(the "Company") was formed. The Company is a
wholly  owned  subsidiary  of Riviera  Holdings  Corporation.  The  Company is a
development  stage  enterprise  at  December  31,  1999  that had not  commenced
operations.  The  principal  purpose  of the  Company is to develop a casino and
entertainment  complex in Black Hawk,  Colorado,  which commenced  operations on
February 4, 2000. The Company bagan  construction  on this casino in Black Hawk,
Colorado, on a site that was purchased for $15.1 million in August 1997.

     Cash and Cash  Equivalents  and Short-Term  Investments - All highly liquid
investment  securities with a maturity of three months or less when acquired are
considered  to  be  cash  equivalents.   The  Company  accounts  for  investment
securities  in  accordance  with  Statement  of Financial  Accounting  Standards
("SFAS")  No.  115,  "Accounting  for  Certain  Investments  in Debt and  Equity
Securities."

     The  Company's  investment  securities,  along with  certain  cash and cash
equivalents  that are not deemed  securities  under SFAS No. 115, are carried on
the consolidated balance sheets in the cash and cash equivalents category.  SFAS
No. 115  addresses  the  accounting  and  reporting  for  investments  in equity
securities that have readily determinable fair values and for all investments in
debt securities, and requires such securities to be classified as either held to
maturity, trading, or available for sale.

     Management  determines  the  appropriate  classification  of its investment
securities at the time of purchase, including the determination as to restricted
versus nonrestricted assets, and re-evaluates such determination at each balance
sheet date.  Held-to-maturity securities are required to be carried at amortized
cost. At December 31, 1999 and 1998,  securities  classified as held to maturity
comprised debt securities issued by the U.S. Treasury and other U.S.  government
corporations and agencies, and repurchase agreements,  with an amortized cost of
$2,820,000 and $0, respectively, maturing in three months or less.

     Property and  Equipment - Property and  equipment  are stated at cost,  and
capitalized lease assets are stated at the present value of future minimum lease
payments at the date of lease inception.  Interest incurred during  construction
of new facilities or major  additions to facilities is capitalized and amortized
over the life of the asset. Depreciation will be computed, upon the commencement
of gaming  operations,  using the  straight-line  method over the shorter of the
estimated useful lives or lease terms, if applicable, of the related assets. The
costs of normal  maintenance and repairs will be charged to expense as incurred.
Gains or losses on disposals will be recognized as incurred.

     The Company  periodically  assesses  the  recoverability  of  property  and
equipment  and  evaluates  such  assets  for  impairment   whenever   events  or
circumstances  indicate  that  the  carrying  amount  of an  asset  may  not  be
recoverable.  Asset  impairment is determined to exist if estimated  future cash
flows,  undiscounted  and without interest  charges,  are less than the carrying
amount.

     Other  Assets  - The  Company  is in the  development  stage  and  incurred
organizational  costs,  which are  capitalized  until  operations  of the casino
commence,  at which  time such  organizational  costs will be  amortized  over a
five-year  period.   Organizational   costs  consist  primarily  of  legal  fees
associated with establishing the gaming licenses for business.

     Restricted Cash and Short-term Investments - Amounts related to the Riviera
Black Hawk Casino project in Black Hawk, Colorado, are restricted in use to that
project or for the related 13 percent First Mortgage Notes interest payments.

Fair Value Disclosure as of December 31, 1999 and 1998:

     Cash and Cash Equivalents,  Short-term Investments (including  restricted),
Accounts  Payable and Accrued  Expenses - The carrying value of these items is a
reasonable estimate of their fair value.

     Long-Term Debt -The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated
based on the  quoted  market  prices  for the same or  similar  issues or on the
current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining  maturities.
Based on the borrowing  rates  currently  available to the Company for debt with
similar terms and average maturities, the estimated fair value of long-term debt
is approximately $49,413,000 and $687,000 in 1999 and 1998, respectively.

     Estimates and  Assumptions  - The  preparation  of financial  statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles requires management to
make estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and
liabilities,  disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial  statements,  and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results may differ from estimates.

     Recently Adopted Accounting Standards - The American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants' Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of
Position No. 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities.  This standard
provides guidance on the financial reporting for start-up costs and organization
costs.  This standard  requires costs of start-up  activities  and  organization
costs to be expensed as incurred,  and is effective  for fiscal years  beginning
after December 15, 1998, although earlier application is encouraged.  Management
adopted  this  standard  in 1999.  The  effect  was to  recognize  approximately
$595,000 of pre-opening  expenses in the current year that would  otherwise have
been deferred.

     Recently Issued Accounting  Standards - The Financial  Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 133,  "Accounting for Derivatives," which is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. This statement  defines  derivatives
and  requires  qualitative  disclosure  of  certain  financial  and  descriptive
information about a company's  derivatives.  The Company will adopt SFAS No. 133
in the year ending December 31, 2001.  Management has not finalized its analysis
of this SFAS or the impact of this SFAS on the Company or the  Company's  future
consolidated financial statements.

     Federal Income Taxes - Riviera  Holdings  Corporation  allocated income tax
expense or benefit to the Company as if the Company  were  filing  separate  tax
returns pursuant to a tax sharing  arrangement.  The Company accounts for income
taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."

2.    RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     As of December 31, 1999,  Riviera Holdings  Corporation  contributed  $15.1
million  to acquire  land for the casino in Black Hawk and $4.9  million in cash
for developing the land for the casino, for a total cash capital contribution of
$20 million.

     At December  31,  1998,  the Company  owed  approximately  $6.2  million to
Riviera  Holdings  Corporation,  representing  advances made by Riviera Holdings
Corporation  for costs  related to the  development  of the  Riviera  Black Hawk
casino.  The advances were repaid from the proceeds of the $45 million bond
offering discussed in Note 4.

     The  Company has  entered  into a  management  agreement  (the  "Management
Agreement") with Riviera Gaming Management of Colorado, Inc., (the "Manager") an
indirect wholly owned  subsidiary of Riviera  Holdings  Corporation,  which will
manage the  Company.  The  management  fee will  consist of a revenue  fee and a
performance  fee.  The revenue fee will be based on one percent of net  revenues
(gross revenues less  complimentaries)  and is payable quarterly in arrears. The
performance fee will be based on the following  percentages of EBITDA  (earnings
before  interest,  taxes,  depreciation and  amortization,  whose components are
based on generally  accepted  accounting  principles):  (1) 10 percent of EBITDA
from $5 million to $10 million, (2) 15 percent of EBITDA from $10 million to $15
million and (3) 20 percent of EBITDA in excess of $15 million.  The  performance
fee  will  be  based  on the  preceding  quarter's  EBITDA,  paid  in  quarterly
installments  subject to year-end  adjustment.  The  management fee will go into
effect on the date of the opening of the Riviera Black Hawk casino.

     If there is any default under the  management  agreement,  the manager will
not be  entitled  to receive  management  fees,  but the  manager  will still be
entitled to intercompany service fees billed at cost.

     On June 3, 1999, the Company  completed a $45 million private  placement of
13 % First Mortgage  Notes.  The net proceeds of the placement were used to fund

million) for the first three years of RBH  operations  to cover if (i) the $5.85
million  interest  on such notes is not paid by RBH and (ii) the amount by which
RBH cash flow is less than $9.0 million per year. In addition,  Riviera Holdings
Corporation has agreed to a "Capital Completion Commitment" of up to $10 million
if the casino is not open by May 31, 2000. The opening of the casino on February
4, 2000 satisfied the  commitment  which will be released in August of 2000. The
Company  has  registered  securities  identical  to  the  13%  Notes  under  the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. On January 4, 2000, the Company completed an
exchange offer for such registered securities.

   The notes were issued at a cost in the amount of $3.5 million. The deferred
financing cost is being amortized over the life of the notes on a straight-lines
basis, which approximates the effective interest method.

     The  13%  First   Mortgage  Note   Indenture   provides  that,  in  certain
circumstances,  the Company must offer to  repurchase  the 13 percent Notes upon
the  occurrence of a change of control or certain other events.  In the event of
such mandatory redemption or repurchase prior to maturity,  the Company would be
unable  to  pay  the  principal  amount  of  the  10  percent  Notes  without  a
refinancing.

     The 13% First Mortgage Note Indenture  contains  certain  covenants,
which  limit the  ability  of RBH and its  restricted  subsidiaries,  subject to
certain exceptions, to: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends or
other  distributions  and repurchase  capital stock or other equity interests or
subordinated   indebtedness;   (iii)  enter  into  certain   transactions   with
affiliates;  (iv) create  certain liens and sell certain  assets;  and (v) enter
into curtail mergers and consolidations.  As a result of these restrictions, the
ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness to fund operations or to
make  capital  expenditures  is  limited.  In the  event  that  cash  flow  from
operations  is  insufficient  to cover cash  requirements,  the Company would be
required to curtail or defer certain of their capital expenditure programs under
these circumstances,  which could have an adverse effect on RBH's operations. At
December 31, 1999, RBH believes that it is in compliance with the covenants.

     The 5.5 percent Special Improvement  District Bonds were issued by the City
of Black Hawk, Colorado, in July 1998 for $2,940,000. The proceeds were used for
road improvements and other infrastructure projects benefiting the Riviera Black
Hawk Casino and another nearby casino. The projects are expected to be completed
in 2000 at an estimated cost of $2,240,000, including interest and reserves. The
excess proceeds have been returned to the bondholders by the City of Black Hawk,
Colorado.  RBH is  responsible  for 50 percent of the debt payable over 10 years
beginning in 2000.

5.    FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

     The  Company  computes  deferred  income  taxes  based upon the  difference
between the financial  statement and tax basis of assets and  liabilities  using
enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the  differences  are expected
to reverse.  The Company had no operations in 1998 and,  accordingly,  no income
tax amounts are presented for that year.

     The effective income tax rates on income  attributable to operations differ
from the  statutory  federal  income tax rates for the year ended  December  31,
1999, as follows (in thousands):

6.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCES

     Deposit Account - Pursuant to a deposit account agreement, dated as of June
3, 1999, among Bank of America as deposit bank, Riviera Holdings Corporation and
First  American  Title  Insurance  Company,  Riviera  Holdings  Corporation  has
deposited  $5.0 million to insure First American  against  mechanics lien claims
against the Black Hawk property.  If no mechanics  liens are outstanding 30 days
after the casino opens and other  conditions are met, such $5.0 million  deposit
will be released to Riviera Holdings Corporation.

     Keep-Well  Agreement  - RBH and  Riviera  Holdings  Corporation  entered  a
Keep-Well  Agreement  wherein,  if (1) RBH does not have the necessary  funds to
make a payment of fixed  interest  on the notes  during its first three years of
operations or (2) consolidated cash flow is less than $9.0 million in any of the
first three years of operations,  Riviera Holdings Corporation will be obligated
to  contribute  cash to RBH to make up those  amounts  (up to a maximum  of $5.0
million for any one operating year and $10.0 million in the aggregate).

     In July 1999, the Company committed to a $11.1 million capital lease line
for 60 months at approximately 11.2 percent for gaming equipment,  furniture and
fixtures at the Black Hawk, Colorado casino.

     The Company  made draws on the  capital  lease line  beginning  in February
through  March 6 of 2000 in the  amount  of  $9,500,000  at a  weighted  average
interest rate of 10.5 percent. The Company does not expect to make further draws
on the lease line.

     THIS MASTER LEASE  AGREEMENT  ("Lease" or  "Agreement") is made and entered

         WHEREAS, First Party desires to lease to Second Party, and Second Party
desires to lease from First Party in  accordance  with the terms and  conditions
contained  herein,  certain equipment more fully described in the Lease Schedule
or Schedules,  referred to herein as a "Lease Schedule" or "Lease Schedules", as
may from time to time be executed by Second Party.
         NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants and conditions
set forth  below and other good and  valuable  consideration,  the  receipt  and
sufficiency of which all parties acknowledge, it is agreed as follows:

                                    AGREEMENT

1. LEASE. This Lease establishes the general terms and conditions by which First
Party shall lease the  Equipment  (defined  below) to Second  Party.  Each Lease
Schedule  shall be in the form provided by First Party and shall  incorporate by

Schedules shall be collectively  referred to as the "Equipment" and individually
referred to as a "Unit" and is to be installed  in and to be used in  connection
with  the  business   location   described  in  the   Certificate  of  Delivery,
Installation  and  Acceptance  executed  by Second  Party in  connection  with a
particular Lease Schedule ("Premises").

2.       TERM:  RENT AND PAYMENT.

2.1.  Term.  The term of this Lease shall commence on the date set forth in each
Lease Schedule (the "Commencement Date") and continue as specified in such Lease
Schedule ("Term").

2.2. Rent and Payment. Second Party's obligation to pay rent
for the Equipment shall commence on the  Commencement  Date and continue for the
Term. The Basic Rent, as set forth and defined in the Lease Schedules,  shall be
payable in such amount and on such date as set forth in the Lease Schedule.  Any
amounts  payable  by  Second  Party,  other  than  Basic  Rent,  shall be deemed
Additional  Charges.  Additional  Charges shall be due and payable in accordance
with the terms of the Lease Schedule or if not set forth  therein,  on the Basic
Rent payment date following the date upon which the aforesaid Additional Charges
accrue,  or the last day of the Term,  whichever is earlier.  Second Party shall
make all payments at the address of First Party set forth above or at such other
address as First Party may designate in writing. As used herein, the term "Rent"
shall  mean all Basic Rent and  Additional  Charges  as  described  in the Lease
Schedules.

2.3.  Late Charge.  If any Rent is not received by First Party or its  assignees
within ten (10) days after written  notice then a late charge on such Rent shall
be due and payable with such Rent in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the
amount past due or any part thereof,  as reimbursement for administrative  costs
and not as a penalty.

2.4.  ACH.  Second Party shall  complete,  execute and deliver to First Party an
Authorization  for Automatic  Payment form  authorizing  First Party to initiate
variable  entries to Second Party's  checking or savings  account at a specified

contemplated  by this Lease and the Lease  Schedules.

2.5. Additional Fees and Charges. Second Party further agrees to pay all of
First Party's  out-of-pocket  costs and expenses incurred by First Party (not to
exceed the lessor of  $50,000.00  or 3% of the total Lease  Schedule  amount) in
connection  with the  closing of all  transactions  contemplated  by this Lease,
without  limitation:  (a) the fees and costs of legal counsel  utilized by First
Party  (including  in-house  counsel);  (b)  all  other  out-of-pocket  expenses
incurred by or on behalf of First Party; and (c) a $500.00 document  preparation
fee for each Lease Schedule.

2.6. First Party's  Performance of Second Party's  Obligations.  If Second Party
fails to comply with any of its covenants or  obligations  herein within 10 days
after written notice, First Party may, at its option,  perform such covenants or
obligations on Second Party's behalf without  thereby waiving such conditions or
obligations  or the failure to comply  therewith  and all sums advanced by First
Party in connection  therewith  shall be repayable by Second Party as Additional
Charges.  No such  performance  shall be deemed to relieve  Second  Party of its
obligations herein.

3.  CERTIFICATE OF ACCEPTANCE.  Second Party shall deliver to First Party a
Certificate of Delivery, Installation and Acceptance
("Certificate of Acceptance") in the form provided by the First Party.

<PAGE>
4. NET LEASE.  Except as provided in Section 13 below and except as specifically
provided  elsewhere  herein this Lease  including  each Lease  Schedule is a net
lease and Second Party's  obligation to pay all Rent due and the rights of First
Party or its assignees in, and to, such Rent shall be absolute and unconditional
under all circumstances,  notwithstanding: [i] any setoff, abatement, reduction,
counterclaim,  recoupment,  defense or other right which  Second  Party may have
against First Party,  its assignees,  the manufacturer or seller of any Unit, or
any other person for any reason whatsoever,  including,  without limitation, any
breach by First  Party of this  Lease;  [ii] any  defect  in  title,  condition,
operation,  fitness for use, or any damage to or  destruction  of, the Equipment

any  interruption  or cessation of use or  possession  of the  Equipment for any
reason whatsoever; or (iv) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or similar

5.       LOCATION, USE, MAINTENANCE, IDENTIFICATION AND INSPECTION.
5.1.     Location, Use, Maintenance and Repairs.

5.1.1.  Second Party shall keep and use the  Equipment on the Premises and shall
not  relocate  or remove any Unit  without the prior,  written  consent of First
Party.

5.1.2. Second Party shall at all times and, at its sole cost and expense,
properly use and maintain the Equipment in good operating condition,  other than
the  normal  wear and tear,  and make all  necessary  repairs,  alterations  and
replacements thereto (collectively,  "Repairs"),  all of which shall immediately

5.1.3.  Second Party shall comply with manufacturer instructions relating to the
Equipment, and any applicable laws and governmental regulations.

5.1.4.   Second Party shall pay all costs and expenses associated with removal
and return of the Equipment.

security requirements,  Second Party shall permit First Party's  representatives
to enter the Premises where any Unit is located to inspect such Unit.

6.       LOCATION: PROPERTY RIGHTS: LIENS AND ENCUMBRANCES.
6.1.  Personal  Property.  Each Unit is personal property and Second Party shall
not affix any Unit to realty  so as to change  its  nature to a fixture  or real
property and agrees that each Unit shall  remain  personal  property  during the
Term. First Party expressly retains ownership and title to the Equipment. Second
Party  hereby  agrees  that it shall  be  responsible  for all of First  Party's
obligations  as required  by the state  gaming  laws and  regulations  regarding
maintenance, use, possession and operation of the Equipment. Second Party hereby
authorizes,  empowers,  and grants a limited power of attorney to First Party to
record and/or  execute and file, on Second  Party's  behalf,  any  certificates,
memorandums,  statements,  refiling,  and  continuations  thereof as First Party
deems  reasonably  necessary  or  advisable to preserve and protect its interest
hereunder.  The parties intend to create a lease agreement and the  relationship
of  lessor  and  lessee  between  themselves.  Nothing  in this  Lease  shall be
construed or  interpreted to create or imply the existence of a finance lease or
installment lease contract.  First Party makes no  representation  regarding the
treatment of this Lease, the Equipment or the payment of obligations  under this
Lease for financial statement reporting or tax purposes.

6.2.  Protection of First Party's Property Rights.  First Party has the right to
place on each Unit,  a medallion  or other  marker of suitable  size  stating in
substance [i] that the  Equipment is the property of First Party,  and [ii] that
First  Party,  to protect its rights,  has filed or retains the right to file in
appropriate government offices a UCC Financing Statement covering the Equipment.
Second Party will cooperate with First Party in preparing,  executing and filing
such UCC  Financing  Statements.  Second Party hereby agrees that a copy of this
Lease or any Lease  Schedule  signed by the Second  Party when  attached  to any
financing statement or similar  instrument,  the filing of which is necessary to
perfect a security  interest,  shall be deemed Second Party's  signature on such
instrument.

6.3. Liens and  Encumbrances.  Unless otherwise  provided  herein,  Second Party
shall not  directly or  indirectly  create,  incur or suffer a mortgage,  claim,
lien, charge,  encumbrance or the legal process of a creditor of Second Party of
any kind upon or against this Lease or any Unit. Second Party shall at all times
protect and defend,  at its own cost and expense,  the title of First Party from
and against such  mortgages,  claims,  liens,  charges,  encumbrances  and legal
processes of creditors of Second Party and shall keep all the Equipment free and
clear  from all such  claims,  liens  and legal  processes.  If any such lien or
encumbrance is incurred,  Second Party shall immediately  notify First Party and
shall take all actions required by First Party to remove the same.

7.       RETURN OF EQUIPMENT.
7.1. Duty of Return.  At the  expiration of any Term or upon  termination of the
Lease,  Second Party at its expense shall return each Unit to First Party or its
designee at the First Party's  distribution  facility in Las Vegas,  Nevada,  in
accordance  with  appropriate  gaming  laws and  regulations  and the  terms and
conditions  of  the  Lease   Schedule.   Each  Unit  shall  include  all  parts,
                                        2

scratches,  dents,  and  chips to the  exterior  of the  device  and wear to the
interior components of the Unit that is consistent with components of comparably
aged machines.  Upon return of the Unit,  Second Party agrees to reimburse First
Party for the full retail cost of equipment that is  non-functioning  or missing

thereof,  that  Second  Party  fails to  comply  with the  terms of this  return
provision, until all of the Equipment is returned, as provided herein.

8.       RISK OF LOSS: INSURANCE.
8.1. Risk of Loss. Second Party shall bear the risk of all loss or damage to any
Unit or caused by any Unit  during the period  from the time the Unit is shipped
by First  Party or the Unit's  vendor  until the time it is returned as provided
herein.

8.2. Unit Replacement. If any Unit is lost, stolen, destroyed, seized by
governmental  action or, in Second  Party's  opinion or First  Party's  opinion,
damaged  ("Event of Loss"),  this  Lease  shall  remain in full force and effect
without  abatement of Rent and Second Party shall promptly  replace such Unit at
its sole expense with a Unit of equivalent  value and utility,  and similar kind
and in substantially  the same condition as the replaced Unit immediately  prior
to the Event of Loss. Title to such replacement unit immediately  shall vest and
remain in First  Party,  and such unit shall be deemed a Unit under this  Lease.
Upon such  vesting of title and provided  Second  Party is not in default  under
this Lease,  First Party shall cause to be paid to Second Party or the vendor of
the replacement unit any insurance proceeds actually received by First Party for
the  replacement  Unit.  Second Party shall  promptly  notify First Party of any

and deliver such documentation, as First Party shall request with respect to the
replacement of any such Unit.

waiver of  subrogation  to First Party (workers  compensation  only);  and [iii]

20. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  The parties hereby  knowingly and  voluntarily  waive
their  right to a jury  trial on any  claim or  cause of  action  based  upon or
arising out of, directly or indirectly,  this Lease or any Lease Schedules,  any
dealings  between the parties  relating to the subject matter hereof or thereof,
and/or the relationship that is being established between the parties. The scope
of this waiver is intended to be all  encompassing  of any and all disputes that
may be filed in any court (including, without limitation,  contract claims, tort
claims,  breach of duty claims,  and all other common law and statutory claims).
This  waiver  may not be  modified  orally,  and the waiver  shall  apply to any
subsequent amendment, renewals, supplement or modifications to this Agreement or
the loan  agreements.  In the event of litigation,  this Lease may be filed as a
written consent to a trial by the court.

21.      MISCELLANEOUS.
21.1. Amendments or  Modifications.  This Lease shall not be modified or
amended  except by an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of the
parties hereto.

21.2. Binding  Effect. This Lease shall be binding  upon and inure to the
benefit of the  parties and their  respective,  permitted successors, heirs,
executors, administrators, assigns, and all persons claiming by, through or
under them.

21.3. Captions,  Headings and Titles. The captions,  headings and titles of the
various  sections of this Lease are for  convenience  only and are not to be
construed as confining or limiting in any way the scope or intent of the parties
or the provisions hereof. Whenever the context requires or permits, the singular
shall  include  the  plural,  the plural  shall  include  the  singular  and the
masculine, feminine and neuter shall be freely interchangeable.

21.4. Compliance with All Laws. The Second Party shall not to violate any law or

industry  or  otherwise  jeopardizes  the  other  party's  ability  to engage in
business with  businesses  licensed by any  applicable  regulatory  authorities.

First Party shall use its good faith  judgment in  determining  whether any such
violation,  act or  omission  of  Second  Party or its  directors,  officers  or
managers,  if any,  places First  Party's  business or licenses at risk and upon
such  determination  First Party shall have the right to  immediately  terminate
this Lease or any Lease  Schedule  without  further  liability to Second  Party.

21.5. Conduct.  Second Party acknowledges that First Party, its subsidiaries and
affiliates,  have a positive  reputation in the finance and gaming  industry and
that First Party and its  subsidiaries  and affiliates are subject to regulation
and  licensing  and desire to maintain  their  reputation  and receive  positive
publicity.  Second  Party  therefore  agrees that  throughout  the Term,  Second
Party`s directors, officers and managers will not conduct themselves in a manner
which is contrary  to the best  interests  of, nor in any manner that  adversely
affects or is detrimental to, First Party, its  subsidiaries or affiliates,  and
will not directly or indirectly  make any oral,  written or recorded  private or
public  statement  or  comment  that is  disparaging,  critical,  defamatory  or
otherwise not in the best  interests of PDS or its  subsidiaries  or affiliates.
First Party shall use its good faith business  judgment in  determining  whether
the conduct of Second Party`s directors,  officers or managers adversely affects
PDS, its subsidiaries or affiliates,  and upon such determination PDS shall have
the right to  immediately  terminate this Lease or any Lease  Schedules  without
further liability to Second Party.

21.6.    Confidentiality.
21.6.1.  Second Party shall not disclose  information relating to the operations
of PDS, its affiliates or subsidiaries,  to persons other than the management of
PDS  or  to  those  governmental  or  regulatory  authorities  having  competent
jurisdiction  over PDS or it's  business,  unless  PDS shall  have  given  prior
written  consent for the  release of such  information.  PDS may require  Second
Party to execute a nondisclosure agreement in connection with this Agreement and
Second Party, if so requested by PDS, agrees to execute the same.

21.6.2.   PDS  and  its  employees  shall  keep  all   statistical,   financial,
confidential,  and/or personal data requested, received, stored or viewed by PDS
in connection with this Agreement in the strictest confidence. PDS agrees not to
divulge to third parties,  without the written consent of Second Party, any such
information  unless:  [i] the information is known to PDS prior to obtaining the
same;  [ii] the  information  is, at the time of  disclosure by PDS, then in the
public domain;  [iii] the  information is obtained by PDS from a third party who
did not receive same,  directly or  indirectly  from Second Party and who has no
obligation of secrecy with respect thereto; or [iv] the information is requested
by and divulged to a  governmental  or  regulatory  authority  having  competent
jurisdiction  over PDS or it's  business.  PDS further  agrees that it will not,
without the prior written  consent of Second Party,  disclose to any third party
any  information  developed  or  obtained  by  PDS in the  performance  of  this
Agreement  except to the extent that such  information  falls  within one of the
categories described above.

21.7. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in as many counterparts as may be
deemed necessary and convenient, and by the different parties hereto on separate
counterparts,  each of  which,  when  so  executed,  shall  be  deemed  to be an
original,  but all such  counterparts  together shall constitute but one and the
same document.

<PAGE>
21.8.  Effective Only Upon Execution by Authorized  Officer.  Neither this Lease
nor any Lease Schedule shall be deemed to constitute an offer or be binding upon
First  Party  until   executed  by  First   Party's   authorized   officer.   No
representations  made by any First Party's  salespersons or anyone else shall be
binding unless  incorporated  herein in writing.  21.9. Entire  Agreement.  This
Lease  along  with any Lease  Schedules  and  related  instruments  executed  in
connection  therewith  constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the  subject  matter  hereof  and  supersedes  all prior  agreements,
promises,  negotiations,  representations or understandings,  whether written or
oral, between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter of this Lease or
any   Lease   Schedules.   Any   prior   agreements,   promises,   negotiations,
representations  or  understandings,  either oral or written,  not expressly set
forth in this Lease,  any Lease  Schedule,  or related  instruments  executed in
connection therewith shall no force or effect.

21.10. Further Assurances. The parties further covenant and agree to do, execute
and deliver, or cause to be done, executed and delivered, and covenant and agree
to use their best efforts to cause their  successors  and assigns to do, execute
and deliver, or cause to be done, executed and delivered, all such further acts,
transfers and assurances,  for  implementing  the intention of the parties under
this Agreement,  as the parties  reasonably shall request.  The parties agree to
execute any additional  instruments or agreements necessary to effect the intent
of this Lease.

21.11.   Governing Law.
21.11.1.  The  substantive  and  procedural  laws of the State of Colorado shall
govern the validity, construction,  interpretation,  performance and enforcement
of this Agreement and the parties agree to jurisdiction in Colorado. The parties
also hereby agree that any action  and/or  proceeding  in  connection  with this
Agreement  shall  only be  brought  in the  venue of  Gilpin  County,  Colorado.

21.11.2.  In the event that  Second  Party is an Indian  Tribe as defined by the
Indian Gaming  Regulatory Act, 25 U.S.C.  ss.2701 et seq. or a sovereign nation,
the parties  agree that the  immediate  section above shall be null and void and
Second Party hereby grants a limited waiver of its Sovereign  Immunity,  for the
sole benefit of First Party,  such waiver being  limited to actions or claims by
First Party against Second Party, or by Second Party against First Party,  which
shall arise directly from, or are related to, this Agreement. Any action brought
by or against  First  Party may be brought  only in the United  States  District
Court most near Second Party`s primary place of business.  The law to be applied
by said United States  District Court in any such action shall be the law of the
State of Nevada,  including the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted by the State
of Nevada, without reference to any Nevada choice of law provisions.

21.11.3.  Without in any way limiting the  generality of the  foregoing,  Second
Party expressly authorizes any governmental or other agency authorities who have
the right and duty under applicable law to take any and all action authorized or
ordered by any court, including without limitation,  entering the land of Second
Party and  repossessing the Equipment or otherwise giving effect to any judgment
entered. It is the intent of the parties that First Party will be able to obtain
possession  of the  Equipment in  accordance  with the rights  afforded it under
applicable laws and/or any court order.

21.12. Governmental  Regulations.  Notwithstanding anything in this Lease or any
Lease Schedule to the contrary, in the event any federal,  state, local or other
governmental    body's    statutes,    laws,    rules,    or   regulations   are
enacted/promulgated,  the impact of which  will  materially  impact the  methods
and/or  costs of First Party under this Lease or any Lease  Schedule,  then,  in
that event,  First Party,  upon written  notice to Second  Party,  may request a
renegotiation  of this Lease or any Lease Schedule.  Any  modifications  to this
Lease or any Lease  Schedule  resulting  from such  renegotiation  shall  become
effective on the latest date as permitted by the governmental body. In the event
the  parties  are  unable  to  reach  a  satisfactory   agreement   during  said
renegotiations,  First  Party  shall  have the right to cancel  the Lease or any
Lease Schedule at any time by not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice
to Second  Party,  whereupon the Lease and/or Lease  Schedule  shall be null and
void.

21.13.  Independence of Parties.  All persons hired or employed by each party in
the discharge of this Lease shall be considered  employees of that party and not
of any other party to this Lease and shall be solely and  exclusively  under the
hiring or employing party's direction and control.  Neither party nor any of its
employees  [i] shall be held or deemed  in any way to be an agent,  employee  or
official of the other party,  or [ii] shall have the authority to bind the other
party in any manner  whatsoever.  Each party further  agrees to have all persons
employed by it properly covered by worker's compensation or employer's liability
insurance,  as  required  by law and to assume and pay at its own cost all taxes
and  contributions  required  by an  employer  under  any and  all  unemployment
insurance,  old age pensions,  and other  applicable  so-called  Social Security
Acts.

and to any intellectual property rights (including software,  patent,  copyright
and/or trademark) to any part of the Equipment.

21.15. Lease Irrevocable. This Lease is irrevocable for the full Term hereof and
the Rent shall not abate by reason of  termination  of Second  Party's  right of
possession  and/or the taking of  possession by the First Party or for any other
reason.

21.16.  License and  Permits.  Each party shall  obtain and  maintain on an
active and current basis, all licenses,  permits,  registrations,  approvals and
other authority as may be required from any applicable  federal,  state,  tribal
and local  governments and agencies having  jurisdiction over the subject matter
of this Lease and any Lease Schedule.

21.17.  Multiple Second Parties.  If more than one Second Party is named in this
Lease or a Lease  Schedule  the  liability  of each shall be joint and  several.

21.18. No Joint Venture, Partnership or Agency Relationship.  Neither this Lease
nor any Lease Schedule shall create any joint venture or partnership between the
parties.  Nothing  contained in this Lease and any Lease  Schedule  shall confer
upon  either  party  any  proprietary  interest  in,  or  subject a party to any
liability  for or in  respect  of  the  business,  assets,  profits,  losses  or
obligations of the other. Nothing herein contained shall be read or construed so
as to make the parties a  partnership,  nor shall anything  contained  herein be
read or  construed in any way to restrict the freedom of either party to conduct
any  business or activity  whatsoever  without any  accountability  to the other
party. Neither party shall be considered to be an agent or representative of the
other  party  or  have  any  authority  or  power  to act for or  undertake  any
obligation  on behalf of the other party except as expressly  authorized  by the
other party in writing. Any such unauthorized  representation or action shall be
considered a breach of this Lease and any Lease Schedule.

21.19. Nondiscrimination. Neither party shall discriminate against any person on
the basis of race,  color,  sex,  national origin,  disability,  age,  religion,
handicapping condition (including AIDS or AIDS related conditions), or any other
class protected by United States federal law or regulation.

21.20. Non-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing herein, whether express or implied shall
be construed to give any person other than the parties, and their successors and
permitted  assigns,  any legal or equitable  right,  remedy of claim under or in
respect  of this  Lease and any  Lease  Schedule;  but this  Lease and any Lease
Schedule shall be held to be for the sole and exclusive  benefit of the parties,
and their successors and assigns.

21.21. Notices. Except as otherwise required by law, all notices required herein
shall be in writing and sent by prepaid certified mail or by courier,  addressed
to the party at the address or addresses of the party  specified  herein or such
other address  designated  in writing.  Notices are deemed to have been received
[i] on the fourth  business  day  following  posting  thereof in the U.S.  Mail,
properly  addressed  and postage  prepaid,  [ii] when  received in any medium if
confirmed or receipted for in the manner  customary in the medium  employed,  or
[iii] if  acknowledged in any manner by the party to whom the  communication  is
directed.

21.22. Privileged Licenses.

21.22.1.  Second  Party  acknowledges  that First  Party,  its  parent  company,
subsidiaries  and  affiliates,  are businesses that are or may be subject to and
exist because of privileged  licenses  issued by  governmental  authorities.  If
requested to do so by First Party,  Second Party, and its agents,  employees and
subcontractors,  shall obtain any license, qualification,  clearance or the like
which  shall be  requested  or  required  of any of them by  First  Party or any
regulatory authority having jurisdiction over First Party or any parent company,
subsidiary  or  affiliate  of First  Party.  If  Second  Party,  or its  agents,
employees,  or  subcontractors,  fails to satisfy such  requirement  or if First
Party or any parent company,  subsidiary or affiliate of First Party is directed
to cease business with Second Party or its agents,  employees or  subcontractors
by any such authority, or if First Party shall in good faith determine, in First
Party's sole and exclusive  judgment,  that Second Party,  or any of its agents,
employees,  subcontractors, or representatives [i] is or might be engaged in, or
is about  to be  engaged  in,  any  activity  or  activities,  or [ii] was or is
involved in any  relationship,  either of which could or does  jeopardize  First
Party's business or such licenses,  or those of a parent company,  subsidiary or
affiliate, or if any such license is threatened to be, or is, denied, curtailed,
suspended  or  revoked,  this Lease and any Lease  Schedule  may be  immediately
terminated by First Party without  further  liability to Second Party.

21.22.2.  Second Party further  acknowledges its  understanding  that it is
illegal for a denied gaming license applicant or a revoked gaming licensee, or a
business entity under such a person's control, to enter or attempt to enter into
a contract with First Party, its parent company,  subsidiaries or any affiliate,
without the prior approval of the Nevada Gaming  Commission or other  applicable
gaming authorities.  Second Party affirms that it is not such a person or entity
and that it is not under the  control  of such a person;  and  agrees  that this
Lease and any Lease Schedule is subject to immediate termination by First Party,
without further  liability to Second Party, if Second Party is or becomes such a
person or entity or is under the control of such a person.

21.23. Pronouns.Masculine or feminine pronouns shall be substituted for the
neuter form and vice versa, and the plural shall be substituted for the singular
form and vice versa, in any place or places herein in which the context requires
such substitution or substitutions.
                                        11
<PAGE>
21.24. Regulatory Approvals. Certain transactions contemplated by this Lease and
any  Lease  Schedule  may  require  the  approval  of  governmental   regulatory
authorities. Those transactions are entirely conditional upon and subject to the
prior approval of such authority.  If the transactions are not so approved, they
shall be null and void ab initio.  The parties shall  cooperate with one another
and move  promptly  with due diligence and in good faith to request any required
or  appropriate  regulatory  approvals.   If  the  action  or  inaction  of  any
governmental  regulatory  authority renders the parties unable to consummate any
transaction  contemplated  by this Lease and any Lease  Schedule  which  thereby
denies a party a  material  benefit  contemplated  by this  Lease  and any Lease
Schedule  resulting in the unjust  enrichment  of the other  party,  the parties
shall  negotiate in good faith an amendment to this Lease and any Lease Schedule
which fairly compensates the party denied the benefit.

21.25.  Riders. In the event that any riders are attached hereto and made a part
hereof and if there is a conflict between the terms and provisions of any rider,
including any Lease Schedule and the terms and provisions  herein, the terms and
provisions  of the rider or Lease  Schedule  shall control to the extent of such
conflict.

21.26.  Setoffs.  The monies owed by Second  Party  herein shall be paid in full
when due under the terms of this Lease and any Lease  Schedule  without right of
setoff  of any  monies  owed by First  Party to  Second  Party  under  any other
agreement or for any other purpose.  21.27.  Severability.  Each term, covenant,
condition or provision of this Lease and any Lease  Schedule  shall be viewed as
separate and distinct, and in the event that any such term, covenant,  condition
or provision  shall be held by a court of competent  jurisdiction to be invalid,
the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

21.28. Subcontracting. Second Party shall not subcontract any of its obligations
herein,  or any portion  thereof,  without First Party's prior written  consent.
Consent by First Party to any  subcontracting  of Second Party`s  obligations or
responsibilities  as set forth in this Lease and any Lease Schedule shall not be
deemed  to  create  a  contractual  relationship  between  First  Party  and the
subcontracting party.

21.29.  Suitability.  Second Party  understands and acknowledges that this Lease
and any Lease Schedule,  at First Party's  discretion,  may be subject to Second
Party  and  its  principals  completing  and  submitting  to  First  Party a due
diligence compliance  questionnaire  (including an Authorization for the Release
of Information) and being found suitable by First Party's Compliance  Committee.
Notwithstanding  any other provision in this Lease and any Lease Schedule to the
contrary,  First Party may terminate this Lease and any Lease  Schedule  without
further  obligation  or  liability  to Second Party if, in the judgment of First
Party's  Compliance  Committee,  the  relationship  with  Second  Party  or  its
principals could subject First Party to disciplinary action or cause First Party
to lose or become  unable  to obtain or  reinstate  any  federal,  state  and/or
foreign registration,  license or approval material to First Party's business or
the business of any First Party subsidiary.

21.30.  Survival of  Indemnities.  All indemnities of Second Party shall survive
and continue in full force and effect for events  occurring  prior to the return
of  the  Equipment  to  the  First  Party,  notwithstanding  the  expiration  or
termination of the Term.

21.31. Third Party Beneficiary.  Second Party agrees that First Party is an
express Third Party Beneficiary of the covenants and representations made in the
Indenture  (as  defined  in  section  12 of this  Lease)  and all  documents  or
instruments  executed by and between  Second  Party and its parent  corporation,
Riviera Holdings  Corporation,  including,  but not necessarily  limited to that
Keep-Well  Agreement  dated as of June 3, 1999,  and that First  Party  shall be
entitled to rely on the terms  contained  therein and to enforce  this Lease and
any Lease Schedules.

21.32.  Time of  Essence.  Time is of the  essence  of this  Lease and any Lease
Schedules.  In the  event the  provisions  of this  Lease or any Lease  Schedule
require  any  act to be done  or to be  taken  hereunder  on a date  which  is a
Saturday,  Sunday or legal  holiday,  such act or action shall be deemed to have
been validly done or taken on the next  succeeding  day which is not a Saturday,
Sunday or legal holiday.

21.33. Waiver. The failure of any party to insist, in any one or more instances,
upon performance of any of the provisions of this Lease or any Lease Schedule or
to take advantage of any of its rights  hereunder  shall not operate as a waiver
thereof or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power.  Accordingly,  the acceptance of rent by First Party after
it is due shall not be  deemed to be a waiver of any  breach by Second  Party of
its obligations under this Lease or any Lease Schedule.

the  expiration of the 31st month of this Amended Lease  Schedule  (collectively

Replacement   Equipment  from  Lessor  under  a  new  Equipment  lease  schedule
reflecting  terms and rental factor  consistent with terms  generally  available
from Lessor at that time,  and (v) Lessee  delivers  the  returned  Equipment to
Lessor in like new condition, normal wear and tear excepted. Upon receipt of the
returned  Equipment and execution of the  appropriate  documents  evidencing the
obligation of the Lessee to lease the Replacement Equipment, Lessor shall reduce

exercise of the  Purchase  Option,  execute and deliver to Lessee a Bill of Sale
for the Equipment  described in the Amended Lease Schedule.  Upon failure of the
Lessor  to so  deliver a Bill of Sale,  this  Option  shall  then  constitute  a
conveyance  of the  Equipment  in  accordance  herewith.  Payment in full of the
Exercise Price shall be due and payable on or before the expiration of the Term,
Renewal Term or Automatic  Renewal Term. If Lessee has not been in default under
the terms of the Lease at the expiration of the Term,  Renewal Term or Automatic
Renewal Term, Lessee may, upon 120 days advance written notice, notify Lessor of
its decision to terminate the Amended Lease Schedule and thereupon Lessee shall,
at Lessee's expense,  return the Equipment to Lessor at a facility designated by
Lessor, according to the terms of the Lease. Lessee shall in all respects remain
obligated under the Lease for payment of Rent, care, maintenance,  delivery, use
and insurance of the Equipment  until Lessor inspects and accepts the Equipment.
In the event it shall at any time be  determined  that by reason of the  options
hereby given or otherwise  that the lease of the Equipment to which the Purchase
Option or the  Renewal  Option  applies  was in fact a sale to the Lessee of the
Equipment,  the Lessee agrees that neither it nor its  successors or assigns has
or will have any claim or cause of action  against  Lessor,  its  successors  or
assigns, for any reason for loss sustained by virtue of such determination.
c. Lessee  acknowledges  that the  Equipment  sold by Lessor  under the Purchase
Option is being sold in an "as is, where is" condition.  Lessor makes,  and will
make, no representations or warranties regarding the Equipment,  its suitability
for Lessee's purpose, or its compliance with any laws. Lessee hereby assumes all
liability for the Equipment and agrees to indemnify  Lessor per the terms of the
Lease for any claims whatsoever arising out of the purchase of the Equipment.
