Item 5. Other Events.
The Company, through its subsidiary Debbie Reynolds Management Company,
Inc., has entered into a term sheet with CS First Boston Mortgage Capital
Corporation ("First Boston") providing for financing of $8.5 million, secured by
a first mortgage on the Debbie Reynolds Hotel and Casino (including, but not
limited to, the hotel, casino, showroom, museum and all other improvements) on
approximately 6.2 acres in Las Vegas, Nevada, an assignment of leases and rents,
reserves, and certain other collateral. The financing will be evidenced by a
two-year senior note, with interest payable at the rate of LIBOR (the London
Interbank Offered Rate) plus 500 basis points, payable monthly in arrears.
Subject to certain terms and conditions outlined in the term sheet, the Company
may borrow an additional $1.5 million. If the additional $1.5 million is
borrowed, the interest rate on the entire balance will increase to LIBOR plus
600 basis points. The term sheet provides for a lending fee of $500,000
($530,000 if the additional $1.5 million is borrowed), payable $100,000 in cash
plus $100,000 of the Company's common stock (subject to additional deposits of
shares in the event the price of the Company's shares decreases) immediately as
a deposit, and the balance of the fee payable at closing of the financing.
The term sheet from First Boston is not a commitment to provide any
financing; any such commitment would arise solely pursuant to a mutually
executed definitive agreement. Payment of the cash and stock deposit on the
lending fee is non-refundable, provided that First Boston provides the financing
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the term sheet. At closing of the
financing, the portion of the deposit not applied to First Boston's expenses
(due diligence, legal, etc.) will be credited against the funding fee. In
addition, at the closing of the financing, the Company is to grant to First
Boston an option to purchase at any time 500,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock at 110% of the market price as of the date of the execution of the term
sheet, which options will provide for piggy-back registration rights. The
funding fee shall be earned when First Boston, in substantial conformance with
the term sheet, is prepared to provide the financing, or if First Boston does
not provide the financing as a result of the Company's failure to cooperate
(i.e. provide timely information, negotiate legal documents, etc.).
There can be no assurance that the proposed financing will be provided
by First Boston on the terms and conditions set forth in the term sheet, or at
all.

Mr. Todd Fisher
Debbie Reynolds Hotel and Casino
305 Convention Center Drive
Las Vegas, Nevada 89109
Re: The Debbie Reynolds Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada.
Dear Todd:
The purpose of this letter is to set forth the proposed terms and conditions to
be submitted for approval to the investment committee of CS First Boston
Mortgage Capital Corporation or any of its affiliates (the "Lender" or "CS First
Boston") for CS First Boston to provide senior first-mortgage financing (the
"financing") to the Debbie Reynolds Management Company, Inc., a single-purpose,
bankruptcy remote entity controlled by Debbie Reynolds and Todd Fisher (the
"Borrower") secured by the Debbie Reynolds Hotel and Casino (including, but not
limited to the hotel, casino, showroom, museum and all other improvements) on
+/-6.5 acres in Las Vegas, Nevada (the "Property"). The Borrower hereby
represents that it owns the Property.
The Financing will be evidenced by a senior note (the "Senior Note") in the
amount of $8,500,000 secured by a senior mortgage of a like amount (the "First
Mortgage") on the Property. The terms and conditions of the Financing are
subject to CS First Boston's commencement and completion of due diligence on the
Property and verification of Borrower's representations regarding the Property.
Borrower: The Debbie Reynolds Management Company, Inc., a Nevada
Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Debbie
Reynolds Hotel and Casino, Inc., a corporation whose
business purpose is restricted to owning and operating the
Property and which is structured as a single-purpose,
bankruptcy-remote entity. The Financing shall be
non-recourse to the Borrower except for standard carve-outs
and the carve-outs described in the sections contained
hereinafter entitled "Bankruptcy" and "Interference",
respectively.
Servicer: CS First Boston, or other entity selected by CS First
Boston.
Loan Amount: $8,500,000 (the "Loan Amount"). 43 rooms at the Property
have been converted to condominium units (the "Unit(s)")
and/or time-share conversion intervals (the "Interval(s)").
At or subsequent to the closing of the Financing. Borrower
may sell one or more Units and/or Intervals. The release
price (the "Release Price") paid to Lender for each Unit
sold shall equal $100,000. The Release Price for each
Interval sold shall equal: i) $1,250 if sold prior to
receipt by Borrower of a full gaming license (the
"License"); or ii) $2,000 if sold after receipt by Borrower
of the License. Upon a payment of the Release Price on a
Unit or Interval, the principal balance of the Financing
shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Release Price.
Borrower may not convert additional (beyond the current 43
rooms that have already been converted) rooms to
condominiums or time-share intervals prior to receiving
approval from Lender, in Lender's sole discretion, for such
conversion. Borrower shall use $1,000,000 of the Loan Amount
to pay-off existing payables and $1,000,000 to establish a
working- capital reserve.
<PAGE>
Additional Loan Amount: Subject to the terms and conditions contained in
the section hereinafter entitled Forward
Commitment, Lender may fund an additional amount
of $1,500,000 (the "Additional Loan Amount"). The
Additional Loan Amount shall be subject to the
same loan documents and terms (except that the
interest rate on the Loan Amount and the
Additional Loan Amount will increase to Libor plus
600 Bps) including the maturity date (24 months
from the funding of the Loan Amount).
Forward Commitment: If Borrower has obtained the License prior to six
months after the date of the funding of the Loan
Amount, Lender will fund the Additional Loan
Amount upon payment by Borrower to Lender of a fee
of $30,000. Borrower shall pay Lender's expenses
related to the determination of the validity of
the License and related to the funding of the
Additional Loan Amount.
Option: Upon funding of the Loan Amount, Borrower shall
grant to Lender an option to purchase at any time
500,000 shares of stock of Debbie Reynolds
Hotel/Casino Inc., at 110% of the market price as
of the date of the closing of funding of the Loan
Amount (Lender shall have piggy-back rights of
registration).

Reynolds and Todd Fisher (the "Principals") shall
immediately have unconditional, absolute and
unlimited recourse for the full amount of the
Financing and all losses, costs and expenses
incurred by Lender relating to the Financing.
Interference: In the event that CS First Boston elects to pursue
any of its rights or remedies available under the
Loan Documents, following an event of default by
Borrower and Borrower's failure to cure said
default in accordance with the cure provisions
contained in the loan documents, the Principals
shall immediately have unconditional, absolute and
unlimited recourse for the full amount of the
Financing and all losses, costs and expenses if CS

cash and $100,000 worth of stock in Debbie
Reynolds Hotel/Casino Inc. based on the
then-current market value of such stock. If the
market value of such stock shall decline by more
than 20% Borrower shall pay to Lender additional
stock in an amount such that Lender continues to
hold $100,000 worth of such stock. The Good Faith
Deposit shall be non-refundable provided the
Lender provides the Financing in accordance with
the terms contained in this letter (with such
modifications as may be agreed upon by Borrower
and Lender) and Lender's other general loan terms
(with such modifications as may be agreed upon by

fails to provide the Financing, Lender will refund
the Good Faith Deposit less its reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with the
Financing. At closing of the Financing, the
portion of the Good Faith Deposit not applied to
expenses will be credited against the Funding Fee.
The Funding Fee shall be earned when Lender, in
substantial conformance with this letter, is
prepared to provide the Financing. The Funding Fee
shall also be earned if Lender does not provide
the Financing as a result of Borrower's failure to
cooperate (i.e. provide timely information,
negotiate legal documents, etc.) with Lender
towards the closing of the Financing.
<PAGE>
This letter has been prepared for the sole purpose of discussing with Borrower
an opportunity to finance the Property. This is not a commitment by CS First
Boston to provide any financing whether described herein or otherwise. Any such
commitment would arise solely pursuant to a mutually executed definitive
agreement regarding a commitment to provide financing by CS First Boston.
Upon execution of this letter, Borrower acknowledges that it is working solely
with CS First Boston to procure financing for the Property. Please acknowledge
your acceptance of the terms and conditions relating to the Financing described
herein by executing the acknowledgement below and enclosing the Good Faith
Deposit. By your signature below, you agree to facilitate and assist CS First
Boston in its continued due diligence for the purpose of proceeding in good
faith towards the Financing. If CS First Boston has received an originally

continue to perform its due diligence and commence with the preparation of a
submission to the investment committee of CS First Boston for approval. In the
event the Financing is approved, the Financing will occur on or before 20 days
after this letter is executed by Borrower and Lender and the Good Faith Deposit
is paid to Lender. In any event, CS First Boston's willingness to proceed on the
basis of the terms and conditions described herein terminates at the close of
business on April 19, 1996. If you have any questions, please call me at (212)
