                RESORTS INTERNATIONAL HOTEL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     A.   General:

          The  accompanying  consolidated interim financial statements, which
     are  unaudited,  include  the operations of Resorts International Hotel,
     Inc. ("RIH") and its subsidiaries.  RIH owns and operates Merv Griffin's
     Resorts  Casino  Hotel  ("Resorts Casino Hotel"), a casino/hotel complex
     located in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

          Prior  to May 3, 1994, RIH was a wholly owned subsidiary of Resorts
     I n ternational,  Inc.  ("RII").    As  part  of  a  restructuring  (the
     "Restructuring")  of  certain  publicly held debt securities of RII (the
     "Series  Notes")  which  was  effective  on  May 3, 1994 (the "Effective
     Date"),  RIH  became  a  wholly owned subsidiary of GGRI, Inc. ("GGRI"),
     which is a wholly owned subsidiary of RII.

          While  the accompanying interim financial information is unaudited,
     management  of  RIH  believes  that all adjustments necessary for a fair
     presentation  of  these  interim  results  have  been  made and all such
     adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

          S i gnificant  accounting  principles  and  policies  used  in  the
     preparation  of  the  accompanying consolidated financial statements are
     summarized below.

     Principles of Consolidation

          The  consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of RIH
     and  its  subsidiaries.    All  significant  intercompany  balances  and
     transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     Revenue Recognition

          RIH  records  as  revenue  the  win  from  gaming  activities which
     represents  the  difference  between  amounts wagered and amounts won by
     patrons.    Revenues  from  hotel  and related services and from theatre
     ticket  sales  are  recognized  at  the  time  the  related  service  is
     performed.

     Complimentary Services

          The  Consolidated Statements of Operations reflect each category of
     operating  revenues excluding the retail value of complimentary services
     provided  to  casino  patrons  without  charge.    The  rooms,  food and
     beverage,  and  other  casino/hotel  operations  departments  allocate a
     percentage  of  their  total operating expenses to the casino department
     f o r   complimentary  services  provided  to  casino  patrons.    These
     allocations  do  not  necessarily  represent  the  incremental  cost  of
     providing such complimentary services to casino patrons.

          Amounts allocated to the casino department from the other operating
     departments were as follows:

     Cash Equivalents

          RIH  considers  all  of  its  short-term  money  market  securities
     p u rchased  with  maturities  of  three  months  or  less  to  be  cash
     equivalents.    The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair
     value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

     Inventories

          Inventories  of provisions, supplies and spare parts are carried at
     the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.

     Property and Equipment

          Property  and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful
     lives using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes.

     Casino Reinvestment Development Authority ("CRDA") Obligations

          Under the New Jersey Casino Control Act ("Casino Control Act"), RIH
     is  obligated  to  purchase  CRDA  bonds, which will bear a below-market
     interest  rate,  or  make  an  alternative  qualifying  investment.  RIH
     charges  to  expense  an  estimated  discount related to CRDA investment
     obligations  as  of  the date the obligation arises based on fair market
     interest  rates  of  similar quality bonds in existence as of that date.
     On the date RIH actually purchases the CRDA bond, the estimated discount
     previously recorded is adjusted to reflect the actual terms of the bonds
     issued  and  the  then  existing  fair  market interest rate for similar
     quality  bonds.    The  discount on CRDA bonds purchased is amortized to
     interest  income over the life of the bonds using the effective interest
     rate method.

     Income Taxes

          RIH and RII's other domestic subsidiaries file consolidated federal
     income tax returns with RII.

          RIH  accounts  for  income  taxes  under  the  liability  method of
     accounting prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     109  ("SFAS  109"),  "Accounting  for  Income Taxes."  Although RIH is a
     member  of  a  consolidated  group  for federal income tax purposes, RIH
     applies  SFAS  109  on  a  separate return basis for financial reporting
     purposes.



                                         7<PAGE>

     B.   Restructuring of RII's Series Notes:

          RII  and  GGRI,  RII's  subsidiary which guaranteed the Series Notes,
     proposed  the  Restructuring  of  the  Series Notes which was accomplished
     through  a prepackaged bankruptcy plan of reorganization (the "Plan").  On
     March 21, 1994, after receiving the requisite acceptances for confirmation
     of  the Plan from holders of the Series Notes and equity interests in RII,
     RII  and  GGRI  filed  their  prepackaged bankruptcy cases with the United
     States  Bankruptcy  Court  for  the  District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy
     Court").  The Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on April 22, 1994
     and  on the Effective Date all conditions to the effectiveness of the Plan
     were either met or waived and the Plan became effective.

          Pursuant  to  the  Plan,  the  Series Notes were exchanged for, among
     other  things,  $125,000,000  principal  amount of 11% Mortgage Notes (the
     "Mortgage  Notes") due September 15, 2003 and $35,000,000 principal amount
     of  11.375%  Junior  Mortgage  Notes  (the  "Junior  Mortgage  Notes") due
     December 15, 2004.  Hereinafter the Mortgage Notes and the Junior Mortgage
     Notes,  collectively,  are  referred to as the "New Debt Securities."  The
     New  Debt Securities were issued by Resorts International Hotel Financing,
     Inc.  ("RIHF"),  a    subsidiary  of RII, and are guaranteed by RIH.  Also
     pursuant  to  the  Plan,  RIHF,  RIH  and RII entered into the senior note
     purchase agreement (the "Senior Facility") described below.

          The Mortgage Notes are secured by a $125,000,000 promissory note made
     by RIH (the "RIH Promissory Note"), the terms of which mirror the terms of
     the  Mortgage  Notes.    The RIH Promissory Note and RIH's guaranty of the
     Mortgage  Notes  are  secured  by  liens  on  the  Resorts  Casino  Hotel,
     consisting  of  RIH's  fee  and leasehold interests comprising the Resorts
     Casino  Hotel,  the  contiguous parking garage and property, all additions
     and  improvements  thereto,  and  related  personal  property.   The liens
     securing  the Mortgage Notes will be subordinated to the lien securing the
     Senior  Facility Notes (described below), if the Senior Facility Notes are
     issued.

          The  Junior  Mortgage  Notes  are secured by a $35,000,000 promissory
     note  made  by  RIH (the "RIH Junior Promissory Note"), the terms of which
     mirror  the terms of the Junior Mortgage Notes.  The RIH Junior Promissory
     Note  and  RIH's guaranty of the Junior Mortgage Notes are also secured by
     liens  on the Resorts Casino Hotel property as described above.  The liens
     securing  the  Junior  Mortgage  Notes  will  be  subordinated to the lien
     securing  the  Senior  Facility  Notes,  if  the Senior Facility Notes are
     issued, and are subordinated to the liens securing the Mortgage Notes.

          The  indentures  pursuant  to which the Mortgage Notes and the Junior
     Mortgage  Notes  were issued (collectively, the "Indentures") prohibit RIH
     a n d    i ts  subsidiaries  from  paying  dividends,  from  making  other
     distributions  in  respect  of their capital stock, and from purchasing or
     redeeming  their  capital  stock,  with certain exceptions, unless certain
     interest coverage ratios are attained.

          The  Indentures  also  contain certain other restrictive covenants on
     the  part  of  RIH  and  its  subsidiaries,  including  (i) limitations on
     i n c u rring  additional  indebtedness,  with  certain  exceptions;  (ii)
     restrictions  on  making  loans to an affiliate or other person other than
     (x)  intercompany  advances  to  RII  not  in  excess of $1,000,000 in the
     aggregate  at  any time outstanding and (y) loans to RII from the proceeds
     of  the  Senior  Facility (or similar working capital facility), provided,
     however,  that  RIH  can  make  certain  loans or engage in certain credit
     transactions in the operation of

                                          8<PAGE>

     Resorts  Casino  Hotel,  if  such loans or credit transactions are in the
     ordinary  course  of  business  of  operating  a  casino/hotel; and (iii)
     restrictions  from  entering into certain transactions with affiliates on
     terms  less  favorable  to  RIH  or its subsidiaries than an arm's length
     transaction.     In  this  regard,  the  Indentures  specifically  permit
     affiliated  transactions  in  connection  with  the  Senior Facility, the
     Griffin  Services  Agreement  described  in  Note  F, the parent services
     agreement  with  RII  which  provides  for  payment  of the three percent
     services  fee  described  in Note F, and a tax sharing agreement with RII
     which limits RIH's tax payments to RII to reimbursements of cash payments
     made  by  RII  for  income  or alternative minimum taxes arising from the
     earnings or operations of RIH.

          The  Senior  Facility  among RIHF, RII and RIH and certain funds and
     accounts  advised  or  managed  by Fidelity Management & Research Company
     ("Fidelity")  is  available  for  a single borrowing of up to $20,000,000
     during  the  one-year  period ending May 2, 1995, through the issuance of
     notes  (the  "Senior  Facility  Notes").   If issued, the Senior Facility
     Notes  will  bear  interest  at  11% and will be due in 2002.  The Senior
     Facility Notes will be senior obligations of RIHF secured by a promissory
     note  from  RIH  in  an  aggregate  principal amount of up to $20,000,000
     payable  in  amounts  and  at times necessary to pay the principal of and
     interest on the Senior Facility Notes.  The Senior Facility Notes will be
     guaranteed  by  RIH  and  secured  by  a lien on the Resorts Casino Hotel
     property  as  described  above.    The Senior Facility Notes will also be
     secured  by  a pledge by GGRI of all issued and outstanding shares of RIH
     common  stock.  In addition, the Senior Facility Notes will be guaranteed
     by  RII, which guaranty will be secured by a pledge of all the issued and
     outstanding stock of GGRI and RIHF.

          The Restructuring also prescribed the following transactions between
     RIH and its affiliates:

       -  RIH  issued  the  RIH  Promissory  Note  and  the  RIH  Junior
          Promissory Note in repayment of RIH's balance due to RII on the
          Effective Date with the remainder a distribution to RII.  RIH's
          retained earnings of $53,896,000 at April 30, 1994 was included
          in that distribution.

       -  GGRI  exchanged  the $325,000,000 Second Amended RIH-GGRI Notes
          (see  Note  E)  for  999,900 shares of common stock of RIH.  In
          o r der  to  accomplish  this,  RIH  authorized  an  additional
          4,997,500 shares of its common stock.

       -  RII  contributed  to GGRI the 100 shares of common stock of RIH
          which  RII  owned.    This resulted in RIH's becoming a wholly-
          owned  subsidiary  of  GGRI  and an indirect subsidiary of RII.
          RIH  now  has  a  total  of  5,000,000  shares  of common stock
          a u t h orized,  of  which  1,000,000  shares  are  issued  and
          outstanding.

       -  R I H  distributed  to  GGRI,  as  a  return  of  surplus,  the
          $50,000,000 RIB Note (see Note D).

       -  RIH  distributed  all  of its cash and equivalents in excess of
          $15,000,000 as of the Effective Date to GGRI.  GGRI distributed
          such  cash to RII so that RII, in turn, could distribute Excess
          Cash (as defined in the Plan) to holders of Series Notes.

          For pro forma effects of the Restructuring on continuing operations
     of  RIH  assuming the Restructuring occurred on January 1, 1993 see "Pro
     Forma Financial Data" following Note I.

     C.   Reverse Repurchase Agreements:

          Cash  equivalents  at  June  30, 1994 included a reverse repurchase
     agreement (federal government securities purchased under an agreement to
     resell those securities) with National Westminster Bank NJ in the amount
     of  $13,836,000 under which RIH had not taken delivery of the underlying
     securities.  The agreement matured on July 1, 1994.

     D.   Note Receivable from Affiliate:

          In   1988,  RIH  loaned  $50,000,000  pursuant  to  a  pre-arranged
     back-to-back  loan  to  Resorts  International  (Bahamas)  1984  Limited
     ("RIB"),  an  indirect wholly owned subsidiary of RII which was disposed
     of  as part of the Restructuring, in exchange for a promissory note (the
     "RIB  Note").    Such note was payable on demand and bore interest at 13
     1/2%  per  annum,  with interest payments due each May 1 and November 1.
     The  note  was  guaranteed  by  certain  of  RIB's  subsidiaries.    The
     guarantees  were  secured  by  mortgages on the Paradise Island Resort &
     Casino,  the  Ocean Club Golf & Tennis Resort, and the Paradise Paradise
     Beach  Resort  on  Paradise  Island  in  The Bahamas, and all furniture,
     machinery  and equipment used in connection therewith.  The RIB Note was
     cancelled pursuant to the Restructuring.  See Note B.

     E.   Notes Payable to Affiliate:

          In  1988,  GGRI  issued  $325,000,000  principal amount of publicly
     traded  notes.  GGRI loaned the proceeds of the notes to RIH in exchange
     for  (i)  two  promissory  notes payable to GGRI (the "RIH-GGRI Notes");
     (ii)  a  first  mortgage  on  the  Resorts  Casino  Hotel  and the other
     properties  owned  by RIH, and a first priority security interest in the
     personal  property  of RIH; and (iii) the assignment of the RIB Note and
     mortgages securing such note. 

          In  1990  the  terms  of  the RIH-GGRI Notes were modified and such
     amended  notes were pledged as collateral for the Series Notes issued by
     RII.    In 1992 the notes were further amended (the "Second Amended RIH-
     GGRI Notes").  The sole purpose of the Second Amended RIH-GGRI Notes was
     to  collateralize RII's Series Notes.  The Second Amended RIH-GGRI Notes
     were  payable  on  demand  after  April  15,  1994 and were non-interest
     bearing, but the principal due on demand by GGRI accreted according to a
     schedule.   The Second Amended RIH-GGRI Notes were cancelled pursuant to
     the Restructuring.  See Note B.  

     F.   Related Party Transactions:

     Affiliated Charges from RII

          RII  charges  RIH  a  fee  of  three  percent of gross revenues for
     administrative  and other services.  Recapitalization costs reflected on
     the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Operations  represent RIH's allocated
     portion    of  RII's  consolidated  recapitalization  costs.   Also, RII
     charges RIH $325,000 annually for rental of a warehouse.





                                        10<PAGE>

          In  addition to the above, charges for insurance cost are allocated
     to RIH based on relative amounts of operating revenue, payroll, property
     value, or other appropriate measures.

     License and Services Agreement

          In  April  1993, RII, RIH and The Griffin Group, Inc. (the "Griffin
     Group"), a corporation controlled by Merv Griffin, Chairman of the Board
     of  RII,  entered  into  a  license and services agreement (the "Griffin
     Services  Agreement")  effective  as  of  September  17,  1992, upon the
     expiration of a previous license and services agreement.

          Pursuant  to  the Griffin Services Agreement, Griffin Group granted
     RII and RIH a non-exclusive license to use the name and likeness of Merv
     Griffin  to  advertise  and promote the facilities and operations of RII
     and  its subsidiaries.  Also pursuant to the Griffin Services Agreement,
     Mr.  Griffin  is  to  provide certain services to RII and RIH, including
     serving  as  Chairman  of  the  Board of RII and as a host, producer and
     featured  performer  in  various shows to be presented in Resorts Casino
     Hotel, and furnishing marketing and consulting services.

          The  Griffin  Services  Agreement  will  continue  in  force  until
     September 17, 1997 unless earlier terminated under certain circumstances
     including, among others, a change of control (as defined) of the Company
     and Mr. Griffin ceasing to serve as Chairman of the Board of RII.  

          The Griffin Services Agreement provides for compensation to Griffin
     Group in the amount of $2,000,000 for the year ended September 16, 1993,
     and in specified amounts for each of the following years, which increase
     at  approximately  5% per year.  In accordance with the Griffin Services
     Agreement,  upon signing RIH paid Griffin Group $4,100,000, representing
     compensation  for the first two years.  Thereafter, the Griffin Services
     Agreement calls for annual payments on September 17, each representing a
     prepayment  for  the  year  ending  two years hence.  In the event of an
     early  termination  of  the Griffin Services Agreement, and depending on
     the  circumstances  of  such  early termination, all or a portion of the
     compensation  paid  to Griffin Group in respect of the period subsequent
     to the date of termination may be required to be repaid to RII and RIH.

          RII  and  RIH agreed to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Griffin
     Group  and  Mr. Griffin against certain claims, losses and costs, and to
     maintain  certain  insurance coverage with Mr. Griffin and Griffin Group
     as named insureds.

          As  part  of  the  Restructuring,  the payment due Griffin Group on
     September  17, 1994 was settled by applying $2,310,000 as a reduction of
     the  balance  of  a  note payable to RII by Griffin Group.  On August 1,
     1994  RII  agreed to issue 1,940,000 shares of common stock of RII to an
     affiliate  of  Griffin  Group  in  satisfaction  of  the  final  payment
     obligation  of  RIH  and RII under the Griffin Services Agreement.  This
     payment  of  $2,425,000  would have been due on September 17, 1995.  The
     fair  value  of RII's common stock, based on the average of the high and
     low trading prices on the American Stock Exchange on August 1, 1994, was
     $1.03  per share.  RII is to issue the shares as soon as is practicable.
     The  shares  will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and
     will be restricted securities.

     G.   Income Taxes:

          Deferred  income  taxes  reflect  the  net tax effects of temporary
     differences  between  the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
     financial  reporting  purposes  and  the  amounts  used  for  income tax
     purposes.   Significant components of RIH's deferred tax liabilities and
     assets as of June 30, 1994 were as follows:

     (In Thousands of Dollars)                                               

     Deferred tax liabilities:
       Basis differences on land                            $(19,300)
       Other                                                  (1,000)
         Total deferred tax liabilities                      (20,300)

     Deferred tax assets:

       Tax credit carryforwards                                2,000
       Basis differences on affiliated notes                   1,900
       Basis differences on property and
        equipment, excluding land                              1,900
       Other                                                   3,000
         Total deferred tax assets                            85,300

       Valuation allowance for deferred
        tax assets                                           (84,400)
         Deferred tax assets, net of
          valuation allowance                                    900

     Net deferred tax liabilities                           $(19,400)
                                                                             

         For federal tax purposes RIH had net operating loss carryforwards of
     approximately  $188,000,000  at  June  30,  1994  which expire from 2003
     through  2005.   These loss carryforwards were produced in periods prior
     to  a  change  in  ownership of the consolidated group of which RIH is a
     p a rt;  therefore,  these  loss  carryforwards  are  limited  in  their
     availability to offset future taxable income.

         At  June  30,  1994, RIH had net operating loss carryforwards in New
     Jersey  of  approximately  $156,000,000,  which expire from 1994 through
     1997.

         Also,  for federal tax purposes, RIH had tax credit carryforwards of
     $2,000,000 at June 30, 1994 which expire from 1998 through 2008.

     I.   Commitments and Contingencies:

     CRDA

          The  Casino Control Act, as originally adopted, required a licensee
     to  make  investments  equal  to  2% of the licensee's gross revenue (as
     defined  under the Casino Control Act) (the "investment obligation") for
     each  calendar  year,  commencing  in  1979, in which such gross revenue
     exceeded  its "cumulative investments" (as defined in the Casino Control
     Act).    A licensee had five years from the end of each calendar year to
     satisfy  this investment obligation or become liable for an "alternative
     tax"  in  the  same amount.  In 1984, the New Jersey legislature amended
     the  Casino  Control  Act  so  that  these  provisions now apply only to
     investment  obligations for the years 1979 through 1983.  Certain issues
     have  been  raised  concerning  the  satisfaction  of  RIH's  investment
     obligations  for  the  years  1979 through 1983.  Although these matters
     have  been  dormant  for  some  time, RIH was  verbally contacted by the
     State  of New Jersey Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") in late
     1993 and expects further communication regarding the Treasury's proposal
     for  a  resolution  of  these  matters.   If these issues are determined
     adversely,  RIH  could be required to pay the relevant amount in cash to
     the  CRDA.   In the opinion of management, based upon advice of counsel,
     the aggregate liability, if any, arising from these issues will not have
     a  material  adverse  effect  on the accompanying consolidated financial
     statements. 

     Litigation

          RIH  is  a  defendant  in  certain  litigation.   In the opinion of
     management,  based  upon the advice of counsel, the aggregate liability,
     if  any,  arising  from such litigation will not have a material adverse
     effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.






                             PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

          S e t   forth  below  is  certain  unaudited  pro  forma  financial
     information for RIH.  The pro forma statements of operations information
     for  the  year  ended December 31, 1993 and the half ended June 30, 1994
     gives  effect to the Restructuring as if it occurred on January 1, 1993.
     The  pro  forma  statements of operations information excludes the costs
     associated  with the Restructuring.  The unaudited pro forma information
     is not necessarily indicative of future results or what RIH's results of
     operations  would  actually  have  been had the transactions occurred on
     January  1,  1993.    Such  information should not be used as a basis to
     project results for any future period.

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

     FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Liquidity

          At  June  30,  1994 RIH had working capital of $6,829,000 including
     $24,686,000  of  unrestricted  cash  and  equivalents.    The day-to-day
     operations of RIH require approximately $10,000,000 of currency and coin
     on  hand  which amount varies by days of the week, holidays and seasons.
     Additional  cash  balances are necessary to meet current working capital
     needs.

          As   described  in  Note  B  of  Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial
     Statements,  RII  recently  restructured  its Series Notes pursuant to a
     prepackaged  bankruptcy  plan.  The Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy
     Court  on  April 22, 1994 and became effective on May 3, 1994.  Pursuant
     to  the  Plan, through its affiliated notes payable to RIHF, RIH will be
     the  principal  source of funds for servicing the Mortgage Notes and the
     Junior  Mortgage  Notes,  as  well  as  the Senior Facility Notes to the
     extent  issued.    Annual interest expense on the Mortgage Notes and the
     Junior  Mortgage  Notes  will total approximately $17,700,000.  Based on
     projected  operating  results,  management believes that RIH's liquidity
     will  continue  to  be  satisfactory;  however,  management  can give no
     assurances  as  to  RIH's  future  liquidity  due  to the possibility of
     unanticipated events and circumstances inherent in any projections.

     Capital Expenditures

          During  the  first  half of 1994 RIH expended almost $3,000,000 for
     the  purchase  of 115 slot machines, most of which were replacements for
     older  models,  and  for  capital maintenance projects at Resorts Casino
     Hotel.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          RIH operates in one business segment.  Following is a discussion of
     the  results of operations for the second quarter and first half of 1994
     compared to 1993.  The discussion should be read in conjunction with the
     Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

     Revenues

          Casino  revenues  were  up by $4,778,000 for the second quarter and
     $3,520,000  for  the  first half of 1994.  Poker and simulcasting, which
     activities  commenced in late June 1993, accounted for $2,204,000 of the
     increase  for the second quarter and a $4,380,000 increase for the half.
     Both  the  Company  and  the  Atlantic City casino industry had a slight
     decline  in  table  and  slot  win  combined  for the first half of 1994
     compared  to  the  prior  year.    The  Company  believes that increased
     competition  from  other  newly  opened  or expanded jurisdictions which
     permit  gaming  has slowed the growth of gaming revenue in Atlantic City
     and,  for the Company, has significantly increased the cost of obtaining
     additional  revenue.    In  addition, poor weather conditions during the
     first  quarter  of  1994  adversely affected operations as the principal
     means of transportation to Atlantic City is by automobile or bus.




                                        18<PAGE>

          The  Company's  increase  in  casino revenue for the second quarter
     resulted from increased slot win and poker and simulcast revenues.  Slot
     win  was  up  due to an increase in amounts wagered by patrons and, to a
     lesser  extent, an increase in the slot hold percentage (ratio of casino
     win to total amount wagered for slots or total amount of chips purchased
     for  table  games).  Table game win was down slightly as the effect of a
     decrease  in  amounts wagered more than offset the effect of an increase
     in the table game hold percentage.

          The  Company's increase for the first half resulted as increases in
     simulcast  and  poker revenue and slot win more than offset the decrease
     in table game win.  Slot win increased as an increase in amounts wagered
     by  patrons  more  than  offset  the  effect  of a reduction in the hold
     percentage.   The decrease in table game win was due to both a reduction
     in  amounts wagered by patrons and the effect of a reduction in the hold
     percentage.

     Earnings from Operations

          Casino,  hotel and related operating results for the second quarter
     of  1994 increased by $4,423,000 due to the increased revenues described
     above.    Total  operating expenses for this period were virtually flat.
     The most significant variances in operating expenses were an increase in
     the accrual for management incentive bonuses ($1,300,000), a decrease in
     advertising expense ($500,000) and a decrease in food and beverage costs
     ($500,000).   The decrease in advertising resulted as the second quarter
     of 1993 had higher advertising costs associated with the introduction of
     the  "cash-back"  program,  a  promotion  which  rewards slot players by
     giving  cash  back to patrons based on their level of play, and the 15th
     anniversary  celebration  of Resorts Casino Hotel.  The decrease in food
     and  beverage  costs  resulted  primarily  from reduced patronage at the
     Company's "all-you-can-eat" Beverly Hills Buffet due to price increases,
     although  there  has  been  a  general  decline in the number of patrons
     served at all of the Company's food and beverage outlets.  Prices at the
     Beverly  Hills  Buffet were increased as management determined that this
     promotion was not cost effective.

          Casino,  hotel  and related operating results for the first half of
     1994  increased  by  $288,000 as increased revenues discussed above were
     almost  completely  offset by a net increase in operating expenses.  The
     most  significant  increase in operating expenses was casino promotional
     costs  ($2,300,000),  due  primarily  to  the  "cash-back" program noted
     above,  which  commenced in late April 1993.   Since the introduction of
     the  "cash-back"  program  the Company has reduced cash giveaways to bus
     patrons  and through other promotional mailings.  Other significant cost
     increases were in fees associated with simulcasting ($1,100,000) and the
     a c crual  for  management  incentive  bonuses  ($800,000).    The  most
     significant  decrease  in  operating  expenses  was in food and beverage
     costs ($900,000) due to the reasons described above.

     Other Income (Deductions)

          RIH's   interest  income  has  been  largely  attributable  to  the
     $50,000,000 note receivable from RIB, a former Bahamian affiliate.  This
     note was cancelled as part of the Restructuring.






                                        19<PAGE>

          RIH's  interest  expense  before  the  Restructuring was limited to
     minor  amounts  incurred  on  capitalized  lease obligations.  After the
     Restructuring  RIH  is to bear, indirectly, the interest on the Mortgage
     Notes,  the  Junior Mortgage Notes and, to the extent issued, the Senior
     Facility Notes, through notes payable to RIHF, the terms of which mirror
     the  terms  of  such  debt of RIHF.  See Note B of Notes to Consolidated
     Financial Statements for the terms of such new debt.
