                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

The accompanying  condensed  financial  statements  include those of Trump Plaza
Funding,  Inc. ("Plaza  Funding"),  a New Jersey corporation as well as those of
Trump  Plaza  Holding  Associates,   ("Plaza  Holding")  a  New  Jersey  General
Partnership,  and its 99% owned  subsidiary,  Trump  Plaza  Associates,  ("Plaza
Associates") a New Jersey General Partnership, which owns and operates the Trump
Plaza Hotel and Casino located in Atlantic City, New Jersey.  Plaza Funding owns
the  remaining  1% interest in, and is the  managing  general  partner of, Plaza
Associates. Plaza Holding's sole source of liquidity is distributions in respect
of its interest in Plaza Associates.

All significant  intercompany  balances and transactions have been eliminated in
the condensed consolidated financial statements of Plaza Holding.

The  accompanying  condensed  financial  statements  have been prepared by Plaza
Funding,  Plaza Holding and Plaza  Associates  without audit.  In the opinion of
Plaza Funding, Plaza Holding and Plaza Associates,  all adjustments,  consisting
of only normal recurring adjustments,  necessary to present fairly the financial
position,  the results of operations  and cash flows for the periods  presented,
have been made.  Certain  prior year amounts have been  reclassified  to conform
with the current period presentation.

The  accompanying  condensed  financial  statements  have been prepared by Plaza
Funding,   Plaza  Holding  and  Plaza  Associates  pursuant  to  the  rules  and
regulations  of the  Securities and Exchange  Commission.  Accordingly,  certain
information  and note  disclosures  normally  included in  financial  statements
prepared in conformity with generally accepted  accounting  principles have been
condensed or omitted.  These condensed  financial  statements  should be read in
conjunction  with the financial  statements and notes thereto  included in Plaza
Funding's,  Plaza Holding's and Plaza Associates' Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year  ended  December  31,  1994  filed  with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission.

The casino industry in Atlantic City is seasonal in nature;  therefore,  results
of operations for the nine months ended  September 30, 1995 are not  necessarily
indicative of the operating results for a full year.

$4,313,000, and loaned the proceeds to Plaza Associates.

(B) On June 25,  1993  Plaza  Holding  issued  $60,000,000  principal  amount of
12-1/2% Pay-In-Kind Notes, due 2003 (the "PIK Notes"), together with Warrants to
acquire  an  additional  $12,000,000  of PIK  Notes at no  additional  cost (the
"Warrants").  The  Warrants  were  exercised  prior to June 12, 1995 and the PIK
Notes  were  repurchased  and  redeemed  on  June  12,  1995  from  the  amounts
contributed to Plaza Holding by Trump Holdings (See Note 2). Such repurchase and
redemption  resulted in the recognition of an  extraordinary  loss of $9,250,000
relating to the redemption and the write-off of unamortized  deferred  financing
costs.

4.  CASINO LICENSE RENEWAL:

The  operation  of an Atlantic  City hotel and casino is subject to  significant
regulatory controls which affect virtually all of its operations.  Under the New
Jersey Casino  Control Act (the "Act") Plaza  Associates is required to maintain
certain licenses.

In June 1995, the New Jersey Casino  Control  Commission  ("CCC")  renewed Plaza
Associates' license to operate Trump Plaza. This license must be renewed in June
1999, is not transferable, and such renewal of the license will include a review
of the financial stability of Plaza Associates. Upon revocation,  suspension for
more than 120 days, or if the CCC fails or refuses to renew such casino license,
the Act allows for the  appointment of a conservator  to take  possession of the
hotel and casino's business and property, subject to all valid liens, claims and
encumbrances.

5.  TRUMP REGENCY OPTION:

On June 12,  1995,  Trump  exercised  its option to purchase  the Trump  Regency
("Trump Plaza Regency  Tower".) The option price of $60,000,000  was funded with
$58,150,000  from the capital  contributed  by Trump  Holdings (See Note 2), and
$1,850,000  of previous  deposits  made by Plaza  Associates.  Plaza  Associates
received the property via directed deed.

Item 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Cash flows from operating activities at Plaza Associates is the principal source
of liquidity for Plaza Funding, Plaza Holding and Plaza Associates.  During June
1995,  Trump  Holdings  made a capital  contribution  of  $146,859,000  in Plaza
Holding and Plaza  Associates.  This  contribution  was used to  repurchase  and
redeem all outstanding  12-1/2%  Pay-in-Kind notes due 2003 of Plaza Holding and
related warrants (together with related accrued interest), to purchase the Trump
Plaza Regency Tower and to fund Plaza Associates for construction costs incurred
to renovate the former  Holiday Inn ("Trump Plaza East Tower".)  Funds have been
restricted by Trump Holdings for the renovation of the Trump Plaza Regency Tower
and  further  renovation  of the  Trump  Plaza  East  Tower,  both of which  are
scheduled for completion during the first quarter of 1996. With these restricted
funds  and cash  flows  from  operating  activities,  management  believes  that
sufficient funds are available to complete the renovations. When the renovations
are completed,  Plaza  Associates will have 138,000 square feet of gaming space,
1,404 hotel rooms and additional restaurant and meeting space.

Capital expenditures of $86,612,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
increased approximately $72,001,000,  from the comparable period in 1994 and was
primarily  attributable  to the  purchase of the Trump Plaza  Regency  Tower for
$60,000,000.  Also,  expenditures for renovation costs associated with the Trump
Plaza East Tower were  $14,296,000  for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
versus  $5,856,000 for the comparable  period in 1994. These  expenditures  were
funded from cash flows from operating activities.

At September 30, 1995, the  Partnership  had a combined  working capital deficit
totalling  approximately  $1,658,000,  compared to a working  capital deficit of
$7,130,000  at December 31, 1994.  Included in working  capital at September 30,
1995 is a receivable  from the Casino  Reinvestment  Development  Authority  for
reimbursable improvements made to the Trump Plaza East Tower for $4,194,000.

The Mortgage Note  Indenture  restricts the ability of Plaza  Associates to make
distributions to its partners,  and requires  compliance with certain  financial
ratios. Subject to the satisfaction of these restrictions,  Plaza Associates may
make  distributions  to its  partners  with  respect to their  Plaza  Associates
interests.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY CONT'D

The financial  information presented below reflects the results of operations of
Plaza  Associates.  Since  Plaza  Funding  and Plaza  Holding  have no  business
operations  other than their  interest  in Plaza  Associates,  their  results of
operations are not discussed below.

OPERATING REVENUES AND EXPENSES

COMPARISON OF THREE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994

Gaming  revenues were  $85,188,000 for three months ended September 30, 1995, an
increase of  $9,615,000  or 12.7% from gaming  revenues of  $75,573,000  for the
comparable  period in 1994.  The  increase in gaming  revenues  consisted  of an
increase in both table games and slot revenues.  The increase in gaming revenues
in 1995 is due to an  increased  level of demand  evident in the  Atlantic  City
market generally,  as well as to management's  marketing and other  initiatives,
the  introduction  of new slot  machines and table  games,  the addition of bill
acceptors on slot machines,  and an increase in casino floor square footage over
the comparable period.

Slot revenues were $58,899,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995, an
increase of $9,052,000 or 18.2% from $49,847,000 in 1994.

Table games revenues were  $26,289,000  for the three months ended September 30,
1995, an increase of $563,000 or 2.2% from $25,726,000 for the comparable period
in 1994. Table games drop (i.e., the dollar value of chips purchased)  increased
by 5.6% for the three months ended  September 30, 1995,  from 1994,  offset by a
decrease  in the table  games  hold  percentage  (the  percentage  of table drop
retained by Plaza  Associates) to 14.5% for the three months ended September 30,
1995 from 15.0% in the comparable period in 1994.

Other revenues were  $21,801,000  for the three months ended September 30, 1995,
an increase of $2,165,000  or 11.0% from other  revenues of  $19,636,000  in the
comparable  period in 1994. Other revenues  include  revenues from rooms,  food,
beverage and miscellaneous  items. The increase  primarily reflects increases in
food and beverage revenues  attendant to increased levels of gaming activity due
in part to increased promotional activities.

Promotional allowances were $12,094,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1995,  an  increase  of  $2,119,000  or 21.2%  from  promotional  allowances  of
$9,975,000 in 1994.  This increase is primarily  attributable  to an increase in
gaming activity during the three months ended September 30, 1995.

Gaming costs and expenses were  $45,296,000 for the three months ended September
30, 1995,  an increase of  $7,315,000 or 19.3% from gaming costs and expenses of
$37,981,000  for the comparable  period in 1994. This increase was primarily due
to  increased  promotional  and  operating  expense  and taxes  associated  with
increased levels of gaming revenues from the comparable period in 1994.

General and administrative  expenses were $17,080,000 for the three months ended
September  30,  1995,  a  decrease  of  $1,900,000  or 10.0%  from  general  and
administrative  expenses of $18,980,000 for the comparable  period in 1994. This
decrease is primarily the result of cost containment measures.

OPERATING REVENUES AND EXPENSES CONT'D

Income from  operations was $22,420,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1995,  an  increase  of  $4,318,000  or 23.9% from  income  from  operations  of
$18,102,000 for the comparable period in 1994.

Other non-operating  expense was $2,005,000 for the three months ended September
30, 1995, an increase of $833,000 from  non-operating  expense of $1,172,000 for
the comparable period in 1994. This increase is attributable to costs associated
with Trump Regency which ceased hotel operations on September 18, 1995.

COMPARISON OF NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994

Gaming revenues were  $224,499,000  for nine months ended September 30, 1995, an
increase of $27,431,000 or 13.9% from gaming  revenues of  $197,068,000  for the
comparable  period in 1994.  This  increase in gaming  revenues  consisted of an
increase in both table games and slot  revenues.  While the first nine months of
1994 were adversely  affected by unfavorable winter weather and construction and
management turnover, management believes that the increase in gaming revenues in
1995 is also due to an increased  level of demand  evident in the Atlantic  City
market generally,  as well as management's marketing and other initiatives,  the
introduction  of new  slot  machines  and  table  games,  the  addition  of bill
acceptors on slot machines, and an increase in casino floor square footage.

Slot revenues were $152,318,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, an
increase of $24,534,000 or 19.2% from $127,784,000 in 1994.

Table games revenues were  $72,181,000  for the nine months ended  September 30,
1995, an increase of  $2,897,000 or 4.2%,  from  $69,284,000  in the  comparable
period  1994.  Table  games drop  (i.e.,  the dollar  value of chips  purchased)
increased by 5.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 from 1994.

Other revenues were $55,261,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, an
increase of  $5,133,000  or 10.2%,  from other  revenues of  $50,128,000  in the
comparable  period in 1994. Other revenues  include  revenues from rooms,  food,
beverage and miscellaneous  items. The increase  primarily reflects increases in
food and beverage revenues  attendant to increased levels of gaming activity and
increased promotional expenses.

Promotional  allowances were $28,611,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1995,  an  increase  of  $3,481,000  or 13.9%  from  promotional  allowances  of
$25,130,000 in 1994.  This increase is primarily  attributable to an increase in
gaming activity during the nine months ended September 30, 1995.

Gaming costs and expenses were  $121,987,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1995, an increase of $17,887,000,  or 17.2 %, from gaming costs and expenses
of $104,100,000  for the comparable  period in 1994. This increase was primarily
due to increased  promotional  and operating  expense and taxes  associated with
increased levels of gaming revenues from the comparable period in 1994.

OPERATING REVENUES AND EXPENSES CONT'D

General and  administrative  expenses were $51,073,000 for the nine months ended
September  30,  1995,  a  decrease  of  $3,855,000  or  7.0%  from  general  and
administrative  expenses of $54,928,000 for the comparable  period in 1994. This
decrease is primarily the result of cost containment measures.

Income from  operations was  $48,217,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1995,  an increase of  $14,265,000,  or 42.0% from  income  from  operations  of
$33,952,000 for the comparable period in 1994.

Other  non-operating  expense was $3,847,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1995, an increase of $118,000 from  non-operating  expense of $3,729,000 for
the comparable period in 1994. This increase is attributable to costs associated
with the Trump Plaza East Tower.

The  extraordinary  loss of $9,250,000  for the nine months ended  September 30,
1995 relates to the redemption and write-off of unamortized  deferred  financing
costs  relating to the  repurchase  and  redemption of PIK Notes and Warrants on
June 12, 1995.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1 -- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

General

Plaza  Associates,  its  partners,  certain  members  of  its  former  Executive
Committee,  and certain of its  employees,  have been  involved in various legal
proceedings.  In general,  Plaza Associates has agreed to indemnify such persons
and entities,  against any and all losses, claims, damages,  expenses (including
reasonable  costs,  disbursements  and counsel fees) and liabilities  (including
amounts paid or incurred in satisfaction of  settlements,  judgments,  fines and
penalties) incurred by them in said legal proceedings. Such persons and entities
are vigorously  defending the allegations  against them and intend to vigorously
contest any future proceedings.

Other Litigation

Various  legal  proceedings  are now pending  against  Plaza  Associates.  Plaza
Funding considers all such proceedings to be ordinary litigation incident to the
character  of its  business  and  not  material  to its  business  or  financial
condition.  The  majority  of such  claims are  covered by  liability  insurance
(subject  to  applicable  deductibles),  and  Plaza  Funding  believes  that the
resolution  of these claims,  to the extent not covered by insurance,  will not,
individually  or in  the  aggregate,  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on the
financial condition or results of operations of Plaza Funding.

Plaza Associates is also a party to various administrative proceedings involving
allegations that it has violated  certain  provisions of the Casino Control Act.
Plaza Funding  believes that the final  outcome of these  proceedings  will not,
either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on Plaza
Funding or on the ability of Plaza  Associates to otherwise  retain or renew any
casino or other licenses required under the Casino Control Act for the operation
of Trump  Plaza.  At this  juncture,  the  prospects  of a favorable  outcome in
actions  described  above  cannot  be  assessed.  Plaza  Associates  intends  to
vigorously contest the allegations made against it.
