Note 1.   Organization and Basis of Presentation

     MGM Grand, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation, incorporated on 
January 29, 1986.  As of June 30, 1996, approximately 72.5% of the outstanding 
shares of the Company's common stock were owned by Kirk Kerkorian and Tracinda 
Corporation ("Tracinda"), a Nevada corporation wholly-owned by Kirk Kerkorian.

     Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, MGM Grand Hotel, Inc., the Company 
owns and operates MGM Grand Hotel/Casino ("MGM Grand Las Vegas"), a hotel/casino
and entertainment complex in Las Vegas, Nevada.  MGM Grand Las Vegas commenced 
operations on December 18, 1993.

     Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, MGM Grand Australia Pty Ltd., the 
Company owns and operates the MGM Grand Diamond Beach Hotel/Casino ("MGM Grand 
Australia"), a hotel/casino resort in Darwin, Australia.  MGM Grand Australia 
commenced operations on September 7, 1995, the date of acquisition.

     The Company and Primadonna Resorts, Inc. ("Primadonna") have formed New 
York-New York Hotel, LLC ("NYNY"), a 50% joint venture, to equally own, develop 
and operate NYNY, located at the northwest corner of Tropicana Avenue and Las 
Vegas Boulevard, across from MGM Grand Las Vegas. The plans for NYNY call for 
the destination resort to include a 2,035-room hotel and casino, themed 
entertainment attractions and restaurants and retail outlets at a budget of 
$460,000,000. Completion is scheduled for the winter of 1996-1997.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals 
have been condensed or omitted.  These condensed consolidated financial

statements and notes thereto included in the 1995 Annual Report incorporated in 
Form 10-K.

     In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed 
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which include only 
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position
as of June 30, 1996, and the results of operations for the three month and six 
month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.  The results of operations for such 
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the 
full year.

statements to conform with the 1996 presentation.

     NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)


Note 3.   Long Term Debt and Notes Payable (continued)

     The Australian bank facility provides a total availability of approximately
$82,635,000 (AUS$105,000,000) and includes funding for general corporate
purposes. Interest on the facility is based on the bank reference rate or
Eurodollar rate. The loan agreement contains various restrictive covenants on
the Company and MGM Grand Australia, including the maintenance of certain
financial ratios and limitations on additional debt, dividends, and disposition
of assets. It also restricts acquisitions and similar transactions. The 
indebtedness has been wholly guaranteed by the Company and matures in December
2000.

     MGM Grand Australia has a $15,740,000 (AUS$20,000,000) uncommitted standby 
line of credit, with a funding period of 91 days for working capital purposes.  
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, $4,262,000 was borrowed with 
$2,294,000 repaid and $1,968,000 remaining outstanding under the bank facility.

     On September 20, 1995, NYNY, a joint venture between the Company and 
Primadonna Resorts, Inc. (see Note 1) completed its bank financing for up to 
$225,000,000. The non-revolving construction line of credit converts to a 
five-year reducing revolver upon completion of construction and commencement of 
operations. The Company and Primadonna Resorts, Inc. (the "Partners") have 
guaranteed completion of the project as a condition to facility availability, 
and have executed a joint and several unlimited Keep-Well Agreement, 
which provides that in the event of insufficient cash flow from NYNY to comply 
with financial covenants, the Partners will make cash infusions which are 
sufficient to bring NYNY into compliance with the financial covenants.

Note 4.   Issuance of Common Stock

     On May 24, 1995, the Company and MGM Grand Hotel, Inc. entered into a
promotion agreement with Don King Productions, Inc. ("DKP"), pursuant to which
MGM Grand Las Vegas will have the exclusive right to present the first six of
Mike Tyson's fights. In addition, MGM Grand Hotel, Inc. made a non-interest
bearing working capital advance of $15,000,000 to DKP which calls for repayment
on January 25, 1998, and the Company sold DKP 618,557 treasury shares of the
Company's common stock for $15,000,000, in exchange for a non-interest bearing
promissory note. Through June 30, 1996, two fights had occurred pursuant to the
agreement, and accordingly, the Company expensed approximately $1,753,000,
representing the accumulated per fight amortization of the difference between
the guaranteed share price and the market price of $40.00 at June 30, 1996. In
addition, at June 30, 1996, the total cash requirement of the guarantee would be
approximately $5,258,000. The remaining balance outstanding of $5,000,000 on the
non-interest bearing promissory note is reflected as a note receivable from
stock sale and is included in stockholders' equity.

      NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Note 4.   Issuance of Common Stock (continued)

     On May 7, 1996, the Company made a commitment to grant 15 shares of
Company's common stock on May 7, 1997, to each of its employees in exchange for
a commitment to continue active employment through the one year anniversary date
of the commitment. As a result of the stock grant commitment, deferred
compensation in the amount of $4,982,000 was recognized based upon 8,279
employees and a market price of $40.125 per share on the date of the commitment.
The deferred compensation is included in stockholders' equity, and is amortized
(including adjustment for employee attrition) to compensation expense monthly
over the one year commitment period. As of June 30, 1996, $789,000 had been
amortized to expense and reflected as an increase to stockholders' equity.
Note 5.   Treasury Stock

     On June 5, 1995, the Company retired all remaining shares of common stock 
held in treasury, representing 2,017,949 shares with a cost of $42,264,000, 
which thereupon resumed the status of authorized but unissued shares.

Note 6.   Earnings per Share

     Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of 
common stock and common stock equivalents, if dilutive, outstanding during each 
period.  Such amounts were 50,160,000 and 48,063,000 shares for the three month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and 49,745,000 and 
48,000,000 shares for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, 
respectively.

Note 7.   Income Taxes
 
     The Company accounts for income taxes according to Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109").  SFAS 
109 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets, net of applicable reserves,
related to net operating loss carryforwards and certain temporary differences.  
The standard requires recognition of a deferred tax asset to the extent that 
realization of such asset is more likely than not.  Otherwise, a valuation 
allowance is applied.

     The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995, is as follows (in thousands):

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations (Continued)

Quarter versus Quarter

     Consolidated net revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 1996 were 
$190,485,000, representing an increase of $22,088,000 (13.1%), when compared 
with $168,397,000 during the same period in the prior year. The improvement
for the second quarter of 1996 over the same prior year period resulted from 
stronger casino revenues and higher average daily room rates and occupancy at 
MGM Grand Las Vegas, reflecting the Company's focus on building a higher quality
customer mix while continuing to reduce revenue volatility.

     Consolidated casino revenues for the second quarter of 1996 were 
$106,737,000, representing an increase of $20,858,000 (24.3%) when compared with
$85,879,000 for the same period in the prior year.  The increase was primarily 
due to MGM Grand Las Vegas casino revenues of $100,070,000 for the second 
quarter of 1996, which increased $14,191,000 (16.5%), compared with $85,879,000 
during the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily fueled by 
better hold percentages during the 1996 period.

     MGM Grand Australia reported casino revenues for the period of $6,667,000 
(financial results for the prior year period before the September 1995
acquisition of MGM Grand Australia are not applicable). Casino revenues at MGM
Grand Australia were unfavorably affected by abnormally low win percentages. In
addition, MGM Grand Australia was under renovation for much of the quarter,
which adversely affected overall revenues.

     Consolidated room revenues of $43,624,000 for the second quarter of 1996
increased $3,131,000 (7.7%), compared with $40,493,000 in the prior year period.
MGM Grand Las Vegas room revenues were $43,070,000, reflecting an increase of
$2,481,000 (6.1%) when compared with $40,589,000 in the same period of the
prior year.  The increase was driven by improved occupancy of 99.5% and average 
room rate of $97 in the second quarter of 1996, compared with 97.6% and $92, 
respectively, in the same period of the prior year.  MGM Grand Australia 
reported room revenues of $582,000 on a hotel occupancy of 67.1% for the second 
quarter of 1996, reflecting the impact of the renovations and the lower 
occupancy which is customary during the "wet season."

     Consolidated food and beverage revenues were $19,441,000 in the second 
quarter of 1996, representing a decrease of $4,639,000 (19.3%)

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
         Results of Operations (Continued)


Quarter versus Quarter (continued)

compared with $24,080,000 in the same quarter of the prior year. The decrease 
was due to the outsourcing of three restaurants at MGM Grand Las Vegas to 
independent operators during the third and fourth quarters of 1995. MGM Grand 
Australia reported food and beverage revenues of $1,621,000 for the second 
quarter of 1996.

     Consolidated entertainment, retail and other revenues were $33,002,000 for 
the second quarter of 1996, representing a slight increase of $642,000 (2.0%) 
when compared with $32,360,000 in the same period of the prior year. The 
increases in revenues were attributable to MGM Grand Las Vegas, where rental 
income increased as a result of the addition of leased food and beverage outlets
and Star Lane Shops mall during the third and fourth quarters of 1995, coupled 
with increased revenues from EFX, when compared with the prior year period. Such
growth in revenues were offset by reductions in Theme Park revenues resulting 
from lower attendance, and lower revenues in the MGM Grand Garden Arena, where 
fewer events were held during the 1996 period when compared with 1995.

     Consolidated operating expenses were $140,235,000 in the second quarter of 
1996, representing a decrease of $16,744,000 (10.7%) when compared with 
$156,979,000 in the prior year period. The overall improvement in expenses was 
attributable to MGM Grand Las Vegas, where reductions in expenses reflect 
operating efficiencies, lower food and beverage expenses reflect the conversion 
of certain restaurants to tenancies, and lower MGM Grand Garden Arena expenses 
which reflect fewer entertainment events held. Additionally, the provision for 
doubtful accounts and discounts was significantly reduced, reflecting the 
adequacy of the balance in the reserves, as well as the receipt of payments on 
fully reserved casino receivables. These decreases in expenses were partially 
offset by the addition of MGM Grand Australia, which had operating expenses of 
$9,936,000.

     Consolidated operating income was $48,615,000 for the quarter ended June 
30, 1996, reflecting an increase of $39,935,000 (460.1%) over $8,680,000 for the
same period in 1995. MGM Grand Las Vegas operating income was $51,610,000 for 
the second quarter of 1996, representing an increase of $40,192,000 (352.0%) 
from $11,418,000 in the prior year quarter. MGM Grand Australia incurred an 
operating loss for the period of $1,360,000.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations (Continued)

Quarter versus Quarter (continued)

     Corporate and other expenses decreased to $1,635,000 in the second quarter
of 1996, compared with $2,738,000 in the same period of 1995, primarily
attributable to a reduction of amortization related to the Don King Productions,
Inc. boxing agreement. Corporate expenses represent operating expenses generated
by the Company, which benefit the Company and its subsidiaries and do not
directly benefit specific operations.

     Interest income of $1,841,000 for the period ended June 30, 1996 increased 
by $1,399,000 from $442,000 in the second quarter of 1995. The increase was 
attributable to higher invested cash balances at MGM Grand Las Vegas during the 
second quarter of 1996, reflecting the strong operating activity and increased 
collections on casino receivables, when compared with the lower cash balances in
the prior year.

     Interest expense in the second quarter of 1996 of $15,942,000 (net of 
capitalized interest) increased slightly compared with $15,784,000 in the same 
period of 1995. The increase in the second quarter of 1996 was primarily due to 
interest related to the MGM Grand Australia bank loan, which was not outstanding
during the same period in 1995, partially offset by capitalized interest of 
$1,117,000 for the New York-New York construction project. Additional interest 
expense was incurred in the second quarter of 1995 as a result of $15,000,000 
outstanding on the MGM Grand Las Vegas bank line of credit.

     Income tax provision of $13,696,000 was recorded at a rate of 39.9% for the
three month period ended June 30, 1996, compared with the prior year when there 
was no provision due to the benefit resulting from the reduction of the 
valuation allowance.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations (Continued)


Six Months versus Six Months

     Consolidated net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were 
$399,789,000, representing an increase of $69,507,000 (21.0%), compared with 
$330,282,000 for the same period in 1995. The overall improvement in revenues 
for the first six months of 1996 over the prior year period resulted from 
stronger casino revenues and higher average daily room rates and hotel occupancy
at MGM Grand Las Vegas, reflecting the Company's emphasis on building a higher 
quality customer mix while continuing to reduce revenue volatility.

     Consolidated casino revenues for the period were $236,993,000 compared with
$177,205,000 for the same period in 1995, reflecting an increase of $59,788,000
(33.7%). MGM Grand Las Vegas reported casino revenues of $222,817,000 for the
1996 six month period, which increased by $45,612,000 (25.7%) when compared with
$177,205,000 in the prior year period. The increase in casino revenues was
attributable to improved win in both table games and slots over the prior year
period.

     MGM Grand Australia reported casino revenues for the period of $14,176,000 
(financial results for the prior year period before the September 1995 
acquisition of MGM Grand Australia are not applicable). MGM Grand Australia 
continued to undergo renovations for much of the first six months ended June 30,
1996, which adversely affected overall revenues. In addition, casino revenues at
MGM Grand Australia were adversely impacted by abnormally low win percentages.

     Consolidated room revenues for the period were $87,425,000, representing an
increase of $8,041,000 (10.1%) compared with $79,384,000 for the prior year 
period. MGM Grand Las Vegas room revenues were higher in the 1996 period as a 
result of higher average room rates and occupancy of $99 and 96.4%, 
respectively. MGM Grand Australia reported room revenues of $905,000 on a hotel 
occupancy of 61.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1996, reflecting the impact
of the renovations and the lower occupancy which is customary during the "wet 
season."

     Consolidated food and beverage revenues were $39,535,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996, reflecting a decrease of $7,339,000 (15.7%) compared with 
$46,874,000 in the same period of the prior year. The overall decrease was 
principally due to MGM Grand Las Vegas where three restaurants were converted to
tenancies during the third and fourth quarters of 1995. MGM Grand Australia 
reported food and beverage revenues of $2,864,000 for the six months ended June 
30, 1996.

Six Months versus Six Months (continued)

     Consolidated entertainment, retail and other revenues were $62,111,000 for 
the six months ended June 30, 1996, representing a $7,101,000 (12.9%) increase, 
when compared with $55,010,000 for the same prior year period. The increase for 
the period was attributable to MGM Grand Las Vegas, where rental income grew as 
a result of increased tenancies for food and beverage, and the opening of Star 
Lane Shops mall during the third quarter of 1995, combined with increased EFX 
revenues. Such improvements were partially offset by lower Theme Park revenues 
due to lower attendance, and lower revenues in the MGM Grand Garden Arena due to
fewer events held during the 1996 period, when compared with the same period in 
the prior year.

     Consolidated operating expenses were $298,805,000 for the six months ended 
June 30, 1996, $2,275,000 (0.8%) higher than the prior year period of 
$296,530,000. MGM Grand Las Vegas reflected significant overall improvements in 
operating expenses attributable to operating efficiencies, lower food and 
beverage expenses due to the conversion of certain restaurants to tenancies, and
lower general and administrative expenses due to reduced advertising costs. 
Additionally, the provision for doubtful accounts and discounts was 
significantly reduced, reflecting the adequacy of the balance in the reserves, 
as well as the receipt of payments on fully reserved casino receivables. These 
decreases in expenses were partially offset by increased room expenses, due to 
higher occupancy, increased entertainment, retail and other expenses due to the 
Star Lane Shops mall which commenced operations during the third quarter of the 
prior year, and higher depreciation and amortization expense for property and 
equipment placed in service during the third and fourth quarters of 1995. MGM 
Grand Australia had operating expenses of $20,544,000.

     Consolidated operating income for the first six months of 1996 was 
$97,838,000, which was significantly higher by $68,851,000 (237.5%) over the 
prior year period of $28,987,000. MGM Grand Las Vegas reported operating income 
of $104,156,000, reflecting an increase of $70,404,000 (208.6%) over $33,752,000
for the same period in 1995. MGM Grand Australia incurred an operating loss of 
$3,172,000 for the six month period of 1996.

     Corporate and other expenses were $3,146,000 for the current period, which
improved by $1,619,000 (34.0%) when compared with $4,765,000 in the same period
of 1995, primarily attributable to a reduction in the amortization related to
the Don King Productions, Inc. boxing agreement. Corporate expenses represent
operating expenses generated by the Company, which benefit the Company and its
subsidiaries and do not directly benefit specific operations.

Six Months versus Six Months (continued)

     Interest income of $3,422,000 for the period ended June 30, 1996 increased 
by $2,432,000 from $990,000 in the same period of 1995. The increase was 
attributable to higher invested cash balances at MGM Grand Las Vegas during the 
1996 period, reflecting the strong operating activity and increased collections 
on casino receivables, when compared with the lower cash balances in the 1995 
period.

     Interest expense in the period ended June 30, 1996 of $31,739,000 (net of 
capitalized interest) increased slightly by $625,000, compared with $31,114,000 
in the same period of 1995. The increase in the June 30, 1996 period was 
primarily due to interest related to the MGM Grand Australia bank loan (see Note
3), which was not outstanding during the same period in 1995, partially offset 
by capitalized interest of $2,233,000 for the New York-New York construction 
project. Additional interest expense was incurred in the 1995 period as a result
of $15,000,000 outstanding on the MGM Grand Las Vegas bank line of credit.

     Income tax provision of $13,696,000 was recorded at a rate of 19.9% for the
six month period ended June 30, 1996, reflecting the utilization of the 
remaining valuation allowance when compared with the prior year period when 
there was no provision recognized due to the benefit resulting from the 
reduction of the valuation allowance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the Company held cash and cash 
equivalents of $210,194,000 and $110,017,000, respectively. Cash provided by 
operating activities for the first six months of 1996 was $108,465,000 versus 
$23,371,000 for the same period of 1995.

     Capital expenditures during the first six months of 1996 were $23,202,000, 
consisting primarily of $13,365,000 related to MGM Grand Las Vegas general 
property improvements (including $1,720,000 for the Master Plan project), 
$9,680,000 at MGM Grand Australia for the renovation program which was completed
on June 5, 1996 (including enhanced guest accommodations, public areas, and 
other property improvements), and $157,000 for furniture and equipment at the 
Corporate offices. The total capital expenditures remaining for 1996 associated 
with general property improvements and renovations (excluding the Master Plan) 
are approximately $38,243,000, with $36,723,000 and $1,520,000 related to MGM 
Grand Las Vegas and MGM Grand Australia, respectively.

     On May 6, 1996, MGM Grand Las Vegas announced details of a 30-month, 
$250,000,000 Master Plan designed to transform the facility into "The City of 
Entertainment" thus creating additional exciting food, beverage, entertainment 
and retail venues. The Master Plan features a series of substantive improvements
and additions throughout its 112-acre destination resort property, including 
refurbishment of the lion entry, the porte cochere, casino areas, luxury suites,
parking facilities, and the theme park. In addition, new facilities include a 
convention center and entertainment/retail complex, and a second porte cochere 
entrance. The Company is evaluating the alternative use and/or disposition of 
certain existing assets, which could be affected by the implementation of the 
Master Plan. Although the specific assets to be redeployed, or disposed of, in 
conjunction with the Master Plan have not yet been determined, the write-down of
the carrying value of such assets is not currently expected to exceed 
$50,000,000. Approximately $40,000,000 is expected to be expended during 1996 
related to the Master Plan, of which $1,720,000 has been expended to date.

     On September 20, 1995, bank financing of up to $225,000,000 was completed 
by NYNY. The first draw down occurred on September 30, 1995, and as of June 30, 
1996, $185,600,000 had been drawn down under the facility. Additional financing 
of up to $75,000,000 is anticipated during 1996. The Company will contribute 
additional equity for its share of the amount necessary to complete the project.
As a lender requirement for the project financing, both the Company and 
Primadonna were required to enter into a joint and several completion guarantee,
as well as a Keep-Well Agreement (see Note 3).

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations (Continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

     On July 1, 1996, the Company completed its new $500,000,000 senior reducing
revolving credit facility with BA Securities, an affiliate of Bank of America 
NT&SA, ("BofA"). The facility also allows the Company the right to accept an 
additional commitment of $100,000,000 as arranged by BofA, which is anticipated 
to be effective during the third quarter 1996. The funds are to be used to: (i) 
refinance certain existing indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, 
(ii) finance initial development costs for a new project in Atlantic City, and 
(iii) fund general Corporate purposes. As of August 6, 1996, $61,000,000 had 
been drawn down against the facility, with $40,000,000 related to the defeasance
of the MGM Grand Hotel Finance Corp. First Mortgage Notes (see Note 3), and 
$21,000,000 related to acquisitions of property and property rights for MGM 
Grand Atlantic City (see Exhibit I).

     On July 2, 1996, the Company completed the public offering (the "Offering")
of 8,625,000 shares of common stock (including underwriter's option to purchase 
1,125,000 shares of common stock) in an underwritten offering. Based upon the 
Offering price of $39.50 per share, and estimated offering costs, the net 
proceeds were approximately $328,000,000. The proceeds from the Offering were 
used for the defeasance of the First Mortgage Notes (see below).

     On July 3, 1996, the Company drew down $40,000,000 on the BofA facility, 
used net proceeds of approximately $328,000,000 from the Offering and cash on 
hand of $161,000,000 to fund the defeasance of the MGM Grand Hotel Finance Corp.
First Mortgage Notes (see Note 3). The combined funds totaling approximately 
$529,000,000 were deposited ("Defeasance Deposit") with the Trustee in the form 
of U.S. Government securities. The Defeasance Deposit will be used to fund the 
redemption and call premiums on the First Mortgage Notes through May 1, 1997, as
well as the interest payments and related expenses through that date. The 
defeasance will result in an extraordinary charge of approximately $31,000,000 
in the quarter ending September 30, 1996, net of tax benefits, to reflect the 
extinguishment of the First Mortgage Notes and the expenses related thereto.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

     On April 5, 1996, a lawsuit was filed in the Superior Court of California, 
County of Los Angeles by Sheldon Gordon and Randy Brant against the Company.  
The suit alleges that the Company breached an oral joint venture agreement to 
have real estate developers Gordon/Brant design and develop a retail and 
entertainment center at the portion of the hotel/casino which fronts the Strip. 
They are suing for $350,000 in costs advanced in anticipation of the project 
being constructed, as well for damages in excess of $100,000,000 from lost 
profits that would have resulted from the project, and damage to their 
reputations.  Management believes that the claims are totally without merit and 
does not expect that the lawsuit will have material adverse effect on the 
Company's financial condition or results of operations.

                 MGM GRAND ACQUIRES LAND IN ATLANTIC CITY FOR
                 --------------------------------------------

                DEVELOPMENT OF A WORLD-CLASS DESTINATION RESORT
                -----------------------------------------------


LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - JULY 9, 1996 -- MGM Grand, Inc. (NYSE:MGG) announced today 
that it has entered into an agreement with Forest City Ratner Companies to 
develop approximately 30 acres of land on the Atlantic City boardwalk 
immediately adjacent to the Showboat casino. Additionally, MGM Grand intends to 
work with the local authorities to plan and develop the adjoining casino zoned 
land, which consists of approximately 40 additional acres.

MGM Grand plans to construct and own on the site a world-class destination 
casino resort which, as part of a major development plan will include, among 
other features, a 335,000 square foot entertainment and retail complex to be 
constructed and owned by Forest City Ratner Companies.

J. Terrence Lanni, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MGM Grand, Inc., 
said: "The public officials of Atlantic City and the State of New Jersey have 
created an excellent environment for the rejuvenation of Atlantic City, and we 
are very pleased to play a significant role in shaping its bright future."

Construction of the MGM Grand Atlantic City is subject to the receipt of various
governmental approvals.

Alex Yemenidjian, President, Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Financial 
Officer of MGM Grand, Inc., said: "We intend to invest in excess of $700 million
to develop a majestic destination resort that will be the pride of Atlantic 
City, and we will complete it as quickly as the entitlement process will allow 
us."

MGM Grand, Inc. is an entertainment, hotel and gaming company headquartered in 
Las Vegas, Nevada. The company operates the MGM Grand hotel/casino in Las Vegas,
the MGM Grand hotel/casino in Darwin, Australia, and owns a 50% interest in New 
York-New York, a 2,035-room hotel/casino scheduled to open in Las Vegas in the 
winter of 1996-1997.
