     ('HCCMC'), owns and operates Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel/Casino in Central
     City, Colorado. Additionally, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary,
     Harveys Iowa Management Company, Inc. ('HIMC') is the owner and operator of
     Harveys Casino Hotel, a riverboat casino, hotel and convention center
     complex in Council Bluffs, Iowa.

     On February 2, 1999, Harveys Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation
     ('HAC'), which was formed at the direction of Colony Investors III, L. P.,
     a Delaware limited partnership ('Colony III'), merged with and into the 
     Company (the 'Merger').

     The Merger occurred pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of
     February 1, 1998 (the 'Merger Agreement') between the Company and HAC. In
     the Merger, each share of common stock ('Common Stock') of the Company
     outstanding at the time the Merger became effective (the 'Effective Time')
     (other than shares of Common Stock held in the Company's treasury) was
     converted into the right to receive $28.7343 in cash as provided in the
     Merger Agreement. At the Effective Time, shareholders of the Company were
     entitled to receive an aggregate amount equal to approximately $289.3
     million and option holders received compensation in the approximate amount
     of $10 million as buyout and/or termination of various stock options. The
     capital stock of HAC prior to the Merger became the capital stock of the
     Company after the Merger. The Company was the surviving corporation in the
     Merger and is continuing its business operations as conducted prior to the
     Merger.

     The Merger has been accounted for using purchase method accounting which 
     requires the purchase price paid in the Merger to be allocated to the 
     individual assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their 
     fair value at the Effective Time. As a result, the condensed consolidated
     financial statements for the period subsequent to the Merger are 
     presented on a different basis of accounting than those for the periods
     prior to the Merger and, therefore, are not directly comparable.

     The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     Harveys Casino Resorts and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
     intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

     The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 1998 has been
     prepared from the audited financial statements at that date. The 
     accompanying condensed consolidated financial

                                        6
<PAGE>

     statements at February 28, 1999 and 1998 have been prepared by the
     Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations
     of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain
     information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been condensed or omitted.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
     recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial
     condition, results of operations and cash flows have been included. The
     results of operations for interim periods should not be considered
     indicative of results for a full fiscal year. These financial statements
     should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
     thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
     November 30, 1998.

     Cost in Excess of Net Assets Acquired - Net assets acquired in the Merger
     are stated at fair value at the time of the Merger. Certain items 
     affecting the allocation of the purchase price are not finalized. The 
     preliminary purchase price allocation as of February 28, 1999

     Recently Issued Accounting Standards - The Financial Accounting Standards
     Board ('FASB') has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
     ('SFAS') No. 130 - Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes
     standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
     components. SFAS No. 130 requires that an enterprise classify items of
     other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and
     display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately
     from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section
     of a statement of financial position. SFAS No. 130 will be effective

                                        7
<PAGE>

     for the Company's fiscal year ending November 30, 1999. Management intends
     to comply with the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 130. Management does
     not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 130 will have a significant
     effect on the Company's earnings or its financial position.

     The FASB has issued SFAS No. 131 - Disclosures About Segments of an
     Enterprise and Related Information, which establishes new standards for
     determining a reportable segment and for disclosing information regarding
     each such segment. A reportable segment is an operating segment; (i) that
     engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs
     expenses, (ii) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the
     enterprise's chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate
     resources and in assessing performance, (iii) for which discrete financial
     information is available, and (iv) that exceeds specific quantitative
     thresholds. SFAS No. 131 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year
     ending November 30, 1999. On adoption, and to the extent practicable,
     segment information for earlier comparative years will be restated. The
     Company anticipates, with the adoption of SFAS No. 131, it will expand its
     segment disclosures relative to its Nevada, Colorado and Iowa operations.
     The Company believes the segment information required to be disclosed under
     SFAS No. 131 will have no effect on the Company's consolidated results of
     operations, financial position or cash flows, but will be more
     comprehensive than previously provided, including expanded disclosure of
     income statement and balance sheet items for each of its reportable
     operating segments.

     The FASB has issued SFAS No 132 - Employers' Disclosure about Pensions and
     Other Postretirement Benefits, which revises employers' disclosures about
     pensions and other postretirement benefit plans. It does not change the
     measurement or recognition of those plans. SFAS NO. 132 standardizes the
     disclosure requirements for pensions and other postretirement benefits to
     the extent practicable, requires additional information on changes in the
     benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets that will facilitate
     financial analysis, and eliminates certain other disclosures. SFAS No. 132
     suggests combined formats for presentation of pension and other
     postretirement benefit disclosures. SFAS No. 132 will be effective for the
     Company's fiscal year ending November 30, 1999. Management intends to
     comply with the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 132.

     The Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of
     Certified Public Accountants has issued Statement of Position ('SOP') No.
     98-5 - Reporting on the Costs of Start- Up Activities. SOP 98-5 requires
     costs of start-up activities (commonly referred to as pre-opening costs in
     the gaming industry) to be expensed as incurred. The Company will be
     required to adopt SOP 98-5 beginning December 1, 1999. On adoption,
     restatement of previously issued financial statements will not be
     permitted. The initial effect of adopting SOP 98-5 will be reported as the
     cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The Company has not
     yet determined what effect, if any, the adoption of SOP 98-5 will have on
     the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

2.   EFFECTS OF THE MERGER FINANCING

     HAC financed the Merger and paid related fees and expenses with; (i)
     proceeds of $75 million from the issuance of shares of its Class A Common
     Stock (the 'Class A Common') and Class B Common Stock (the 'Class B
     Common') to Colony HCR Voteco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
     ('Voteco') and Colony III, respectively, (ii) proceeds of $55 million from
     the issuance of shares of its 13 1/2% Series A Senior Redeemable
     Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (the 'Series A Preferred') and 
     13 1/2% Series B Senior Redeemable Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock 
     (the 'Series B Preferred') to Voteco and Colony III, respectively, (iii)
     borrowings in the amount of $172 million under a loan agreement dated as of
     January 28, 1999 (the 'HAC Loan') between HAC as borrower and Wells Fargo
     Bank, National Association ('Wells Fargo') as lender, and (iv) the
     Company's available cash.

     Prior to the Merger, the Company was a publicly held company. Following the
     Merger, Colony III owns 97% of the Class B Common, which represents
     approximately 96% of the common equity interest in the Company. 
     Following the Merger, the Company granted to certain executive officers 
     of the Company 1,200 shares of Class A Common and 120,000 shares of 
     Class B Common; approximately 3% of the outstanding shares of each class 
     of common stock. Voteco, whose sole members, owners and managers are 
     officers of the indirect general partner of Colony III, owns 97% of the 
     voting power in the Company through the ownership of 97% of the Class A 
     Common. As a result, Voteco is able to govern all matters of the Company 
     that are subject to the vote of the Company's stockholders, including the
     appointment of directors and the amendment of the Company's Articles of
     Incorporation and Bylaws. In addition, Colony III owns 99.99% of the
     outstanding shares of the Company's preferred stock and Voteco owns .01% of
     the outstanding shares of preferred stock.

     In addition, in the Merger the directors of HAC became directors of the 
     Company. Charles W. Scharer, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, 
     President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company prior to the 
     Merger, was appointed a director, President and Chief Executive Officer 
     of the Company at the Effective Time.

3.   PREFERRED STOCK

     The Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred (together, the 'Preferred
     Stock') are entitled to quarterly dividends at an annual rate of 13 1/2% of
     the $550 per share liquidation value (the 'Liquidation Value'). To the
     extent not paid in cash, dividends will cumulate and compound quarterly at
     an annual rate of 13 1/2% of the Liquidation Value. The Series A Preferred
     and Series B Preferred are subject to mandatory redemption on February 1,
     2011 for cash at the

                                        9
<PAGE>

     Liquidation Value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends, out of any funds
     legally available therefor. The Company has the right to redeem the Series
     A Preferred and the Series B Preferred at any time for cash at the
     Liquidation Value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. If a Change of
     Control (as defined in the Certificates of Designation for the Preferred
     Stock) of the Company occurs, the Company will be required to offer to
     purchase all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred and Series B
     Preferred (the 'Change of Control Offer') for cash at a price of 101% of
     the Liquidation Value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. However, the
     Company will not be required to make the Change of Control Offer on or
     prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Company's 10 5/8%
     Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the 'Senior Subordinated Notes') have
     been repaid, repurchased or redeemed in full, and (ii) June 1, 2006, the
     date the Senior Subordinated Notes mature. The Certificates of Designation
     contain covenants which limit restricted payments or investments; limit
     consolidation, merger and the sale of assets; mandate the provision of
     financial reports; and limit business activities. In the event of a sale or
     other disposition of all but not less than all of the Series A Preferred
     and Series B Preferred by the original holders and/or certain related
     parties (but not any other transferees) to one or more persons other than
     the original holders and certain related parties, the dividend rate and
     other rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred and
     Series B Preferred may, at the election of the holders of a majority of the
     Series A Preferred, be amended so that the Series A Preferred and Series B
     Preferred would, in the opinion of an independent financial advisor chosen
     by the electing holders, have a market value of 100% of the Liquidation
     Value thereof plus any accrued and unpaid dividends; provided that in no
     event shall the reset dividend rate exceed 15 1/2% per annum.
     Alternatively, the electing holders may effectuate the foregoing by
     exchanging all of the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred for a new
     class of preferred stock having terms to which the Series A Preferred and
     Series B Preferred would have been reset as aforesaid. Upon the receipt of
     all applicable gaming approvals the Series A Preferred and Series B
     Preferred are convertible, at the per share rate of 28.7309164 shares of
     the Class A Common and Class B Common, respectively, subject to customary
     antidilution adjustments. Any accrued and unpaid dividends at the time of a
     conversion will be required to be paid in cash or, at the Company's
     election, may be satisfied with additional shares of the corresponding
     Class A Common or Class B Common.

     At February 28, 1999, the aggregate Liquidation Value of the Series A
     Preferred and Series B Preferred was $55 million. Additionally, at February
     28, 1999 there were accrued, undeclared dividends of $618,750 relative to
     the Preferred Stock. The Company was in compliance with the covenants under
     the Certificates of Designation as of February 28, 1999.

4.   LONG-TERM DEBT

     Note Payable to Banks - Immediately following the Merger, the Company used
     an initial disbursement of $172 million under an Amended and Restated
     Credit Agreement dated December 9, 1998 among the Company and certain of
     its subsidiaries as borrowers, (the 'Borrowers'), Wells

                                       10
<PAGE>

     Fargo Bank as swingline lender, letter of credit issuer and agent and the
     lenders party thereto to repay the $172 million outstanding under the HAC
     Loan. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated December 9, 1998 (the
     'Credit Facility') which has a total availability of $185 million, provides
     for a revolving loan facility, and a swingline facility and a letter of
     credit facility under each of which the Company may borrow up to $5
     million.

     Interest on the outstanding principal balance accrues at a base rate equal
     to the higher of (i) the prime rate, and (ii) the Federal Funds Rate (as
     defined in the Credit Facility) plus one-half of one percent; plus an
     applicable margin which is initially 1.75%. The Company may under certain
     circumstances elect to have interest accrue at the London Inter-Bank
     Offering Rate ('LIBOR') plus an applicable margin which is initially 3.0%.
     In the future, the applicable margins may be changed, based on the ratio of
     the Borrower's total funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes,
     depreciation and amortization ('EBITDA').

     The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's and
     the other Borrowers' assets including, subject to applicable gaming
     approvals, a pledge of all of the capital stock of each of HTMC, HCCMC,
     HIMC and HCR Services Company, Inc. ('HCRSC'), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
     the Company, mortgages on all material real property owned or leased by the
     Borrowers and the accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and intangibles
     of the Borrowers. The Credit Facility will mature and be fully due and
     payable on February 2, 2004. The permitted principal balance of the Credit
     Facility will be reduced on a quarterly basis, commencing on August 31,
     2000. The Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other
     things, subject to applicable gaming approvals, restrict the ability of the
     Company and the other Borrowers to dispose of assets, incur additional
     indebtedness, prepay the Senior Subordinated Notes, pay dividends, create
     liens on assets, make investments, loans or advances, engage in mergers or
     consolidations, change the business conducted by the Company or the other
     Borrowers or engage in certain transactions with affiliates and otherwise
     restrict certain corporate activities. In addition, under the Credit
     Facility, the Company and the other Borrowers will be required to maintain
     specified financial ratios and net worth requirements, satisfy specified
     financial tests, including interest coverage tests, and maintain certain
     levels of annual capital expenditures. The Credit Facility contains events
     of default customary for facilities of this nature. Specifically, the
     Credit Facility prohibits the payment of cash dividends on the Preferred
     Stock, unless the Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3 to 1. 'Leverage
     Ratio' is calculated by reference to the Borrowers and any other
     subsidiaries of the Company subsequently designated as a 'Restricted
     Subsidiary' under the Credit Facility and refers to the ratio of total
     indebtedness to EBITDA. The Company was in compliance with the covenants
     under the Credit Facility as of February 28, 1999.

     The Credit Facility replaced the Company's existing credit facility at the
     Effective Time. Consequently, the unamortized deferred loan fees and other
     financing costs associated with the existing credit facility were expensed
     at that time as an extraordinary item, net of tax. Loan fees and other
     financing costs related to the Credit Facility are being amortized to
     interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility.

                                       11
<PAGE>

     Senior Subordinated Notes - Prior to the Merger, the Company amended the
     indenture which governs the Senior Subordinated Notes (the 'Indenture')
     with the changes becoming operative at the Effective Time. The Company
     sought and received the consent of the holders of its Senior Subordinated
     Notes to: (i) the one-time waiver of the applicability of the Indenture to
     the Merger, including the waivers of (a) the change of control covenant in
     the Indenture and (b) the 'Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets'
     provision in the Indenture that might have restricted the financing of the
     Merger and related transactions, and (ii) the amendment of the definition
     of 'Consolidated Cash Flow' in the Indenture to add back certain costs
     related to the Merger.

     The fair market value of the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes
     immediately following the Merger was 105% of the principal amount. Applying
     purchase method accounting to the Merger, a premium of $7.5 million was
     recorded relative to the Senior Subordinated Notes. The premium is being
     amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining term of the
     Senior Subordinated Notes.

5.   EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

     Long-Term Incentive Plan - The Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan and the
     rights to participate therein were terminated at the Effective Time in
     exchange for lump sum payments in the aggregate amount of approximately
     $3.1 million.

     Supplemental Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefits - The rights of
     certain executives (each an 'Executive' and together the 'Executives') to
     participate in a supplemental executive retirement plan (the 'SERP') were
     terminated at the Effective Time and the accrued SERP benefits due the
     Executives as agreed upon between each of the Executives and the Company
     were approximately $2.6 million in the aggregate. One-half of the amount
     due each executive was paid in a lump sum and the remaining amounts were
     deemed to be distributed to each Executive and invested pursuant to certain
     deferred compensation agreements entered into between the Company and each
     of the Executives.

     At the Effective Time, members of the Company's board of directors who were
     asked to resign were paid a lump sum payment of the compensation due under
     the Company's Outside Directors' Retirement Plan. The aggregate of the lump
     sum payments was $750,000.

     Purchase method accounting required the recognition of a liability to the
     extent the projected benefit obligation of the Company's pension plan
     exceeded plan assets at the time of the Merger. Any previously existing
     unrecognized net gain or loss, unrecognized prior-service cost, and
     unrecognized net obligation was eliminated. Likewise, a liability for the
     accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation in excess of the fair value
     of plan assets relative to the Company's postretirement medical benefit
     plans was recognized. As a result of the foregoing, the Company recognized
     an increase in the net liability attributable to its supplemental
     retirement plans and postretirement benefit plans of approximately $7.2
     million.

                                       12

6.   CONSENT FEE AND MERGER RELATED COSTS

At the time of the Merger, the Company recognized approximately $19.9 million 
of expense related to: (i) a consent fee paid to the consenting holders of 
the Senior Subordinated Notes, (ii) compensation and pension benefits due to 
certain members of management and the board of directors due to the change of 
control resulting from the Merger, and (iii) financial advisory services and 
other costs.

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

OVERVIEW

On February 2, 1999, HAC merged with and into the Company, completing the

Note to the operating results

(1)  EBITDA (operating income plus depreciation and amortization and excluding
     non-recurring items) should not be construed as an indicator of the
     Company's operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from
     operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The Company has presented
     EBITDA solely as supplemental disclosure because the Company believes that
     it allows for a more complete analysis of results of operations. Because
     companies do not calculate EBITDA identically, the presentation of EBITDA
     herein is not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of
     other companies. EBITDA is not intended to represent and should not be
     considered more meaningful than, or an alternative to, measures of
     operating performance as determined in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, QUARTER ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 1999 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED
FEBRUARY 28, 1998

As a result of the Merger, the results of operations for the period subsequent
to the Merger are presented on a different basis of accounting than those for
the period prior to the Merger and, therefore, the combined results for the
three months ended February 28, 1999 are not directly comparable to the results
for the three months ended February 28, 1998. However, management believes that
a comparison of the three month periods provides a meaningful discussion of the
results of operations at its three operating properties. The items of
comparability most affected by the Merger are depreciation and amortization,
interest expense and income taxes.

The Company's consolidated net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1999
amounted to approximately $75.6 million, a new record for the Company's first
quarter and an increase of $6.9 million, or 10.0%, over net revenues recorded in
the first quarter of fiscal 1998. The improvement was attributable to net
revenue increases at the Lake Tahoe and Iowa properties. Net revenues from the
Company's Lake Tahoe property increased by approximately $3.5 million, or 12.6%.
Net revenues at Harveys Casino Hotel in Iowa improved by $3.7 million or 14.0%.
The net revenue increases were driven by increased casino revenue at both the
Lake Tahoe and Iowa properties. Harveys Wagon Wheel Hotel/Casino experienced a
2.2% decrease in net revenues, down $0.3 million. The decrease was experienced
primarily in casino revenues and is the result of new competition coming online
in late December in nearby Black Hawk, Colorado.

Casino revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 amounted to 
approximately $60.1 million, an improvement of $5.7 million over the 
comparable quarter of the prior year. The gaming activity in Council Bluffs 
produced an increase of approximately $3.2 million in casino revenues over 
the comparable quarter of the prior year. The Company's Lake Tahoe casino 
revenues improved by approximately $2.7 million over the first quarter of 
1998. The increase in casino revenues at Lake Tahoe was the result of an 
increase in wagering volume and was achieved despite a decrease in the win 
percentages. In Iowa, the increase in casino revenues was the result of 
increased volume and a stronger slot machine win percentage. Harveys Wagon 
Wheel Hotel/Casino decreased approximately $0.2 million in casino revenues 
over the prior year comparable quarter due primarily to the new competition. 
Casino costs and expenses increased for the comparable periods, up $3.0 
million to $30.1 million for the current year period. The Council Bluffs 
casino accounted for $1.5 million of the increase while Colorado operations 
accounted for approximately $0.2 million of the increase and the Lake Tahoe 
operations recorded a $1.3 million increase in casino costs. The increase in 
casino costs and expenses was attributable principally to increases in gaming 
taxes and licenses and promotional expenses. 

Lodging revenues for the fiscal 1999 first quarter improved by approximately 
$1.2 million over the prior year first quarter and amounted to $8.8 million. 
The hotel facility at Lake Tahoe contributed $1.1 million of the 
quarter-over-quarter increase. The improvement in lodging revenues was mainly 
due to an increase in the occupancy rate. Lodging profits improved by 
approximately $1.4 million.

                                       15
<PAGE>

Food and beverage revenues for the current fiscal year first quarter amounted to
approximately $11.9 million, an improvement of nearly $1.2 million, or 10.9%,
over prior year first quarter. Food and beverage revenues from the Lake Tahoe
property contributed an increase of approximately $0.7 million, while Council
Bluffs revenues increased approximately $0.5 million. Food and beverage profits
and margins increased for the quarter-to-quarter comparison due to improvements
at both the Lake Tahoe and Council Bluffs properties resulting from increased
revenues and the controlling of related costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.1
million, or 5.7%, to $20.0 million for the current fiscal year first quarter.
The Lake Tahoe operations recognized an increase in overall selling, general and
administrative expenses of approximately $0.9 million from the first quarter of
fiscal 1998 compared to the current fiscal year first quarter, while these
expenses increased by $0.4 million at the Central City property and $0.2 million
at the Iowa property. Corporate expenses decreased by approximately $0.4
million. The quarter-to-quarter increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses resulted from increased advertising and promotional expenses, taxes and
licenses, and employee programs.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by approximately $0.2 million,
primarily as the result of amortization of the cost in excess of net assets
acquired in the Merger.

At the time of the Merger, the Company recognized approximately $19.9 million 
of expense related to: (i) a consent fee paid to the consenting holders of 
the Senior Subordinated Notes, (ii) compensation and pension benefits due to 
certain members of management and the board of directors due to the change of 
control resulting from the Merger, and (iii) financial advisory services and 
other costs.

Interest expense, net of interest income increased by approximately $0.9 million
to $4.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The increase was
attributable to the additional borrowing from the Credit Facility.

The Company recognized an extraordinary loss of approximately $0.9 million, 
net of tax, on the early retirement of its previously existing credit 
facility which was retired at the Effective Time.

As a result of the above, the net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 
amounted to $12.7 million compared to net income of $1.5 million for the 
first quarter of fiscal 1998. Excluding the loss on early retirement of debt, 
net of tax, and excluding the after tax effect of approximately $13.8 million 
attributable to the consent fee and merger costs, net income for the first 
quarter of fiscal 1999 would have been approximately $1.9 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Effects of the Merger Financing - At the Effective Time the leverage and fixed
charge obligations of the Company substantially increased. HAC financed the
Merger with (i) proceeds of $75 million from the issuance of its Class A Common
to Voteco and its Class B Common to Colony III, (ii) proceeds of $55 million
from the issuance of its Series A Preferred to Voteco and its Series B Preferred
to Colony III, (iii) borrowings of $172 million under the HAC Loan and (iv) the
Company's available cash (collectively, the 'Merger Financing'). Upon
consummation of the Merger, the HAC Loan was refinanced through the Credit
Facility.

                                       16
<PAGE>

The maximum borrowings available under the Credit Facility at February 28, 1999
was $185 million. The maximum principal balance of the Credit Facility will
reduce on a quarterly basis, commencing on August 31, 2000. The Credit Facility
will mature and be fully due and payable on February 2, 2004. Interest on
borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility will be payable, at the
Company's option, at either the LIBOR or an alternative base rate, in each case
plus an applicable margin. In the future, the applicable margins may be changed,
based on the ratio of the Borrowers' total funded debt to EBITDA. The Credit
Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, subject to
applicable gaming approvals, restrict the ability of the Company and the other
Borrowers to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, prepay any of the
Senior Subordinated Notes, pay dividends, create liens on assets, make
investments, loans or advances, engage in mergers or consolidations, change the
business conducted by the Company or the other Borrowers or engage in certain
transactions with affiliates and otherwise restrict certain corporate
activities. In addition, under the Credit Facility, the Company and the other
Borrowers are required to maintain specified financial ratios and net worth
requirements, satisfy specified financial tests, including interest coverage
tests, and maintain certain levels of annual capital expenditures. The Credit
Facility contains events of default customary for facilities of this nature.
Specifically, the Credit Facility prohibits the payment of cash dividends on the
Preferred Stock, unless the Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3 to 1.
'Leverage Ratio' is calculated by reference to the Company, HCCMC, HIMC, HLVMC
and HTMC and any other subsidiaries of the Company subsequently designated under
the Credit Facility and refers to the ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA.

The Preferred Stock is entitled to quarterly dividends at an annual rate of 13
1/2% of the $550 per share Liquidation Value. To the extent not paid in cash,
dividends will cumulate and compound quarterly at an annual rate of 13 1/2% of
the Liquidation Value. The Preferred Stock is subject to mandatory redemption on
February 1, 2011 for cash at the Liquidation Value plus any accrued and unpaid
dividends, out of any funds legally available therefor. The Company has the
right to redeem the Preferred Stock at any time for cash at the Liquidation
Value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The Certificates of Designation
contain covenants which limit restricted payments or investments; limit
consolidation, merger and the sale of assets; mandate the provision of financial
reports; and limit business activities. Upon the receipt of all applicable
gaming approvals the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred are convertible,
at the per share rate of 28.7309164 shares of the Class A Common and Class B
Common, respectively, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Any
accrued and unpaid dividends at the time of a conversion will be required to be
paid in cash or, at the Company's election, may be satisfied with additional
shares of the corresponding Class A Common or Class B Common in an amount to be
determined in accordance with the conversion rate.

The Senior Subordinated Notes are governed by an indenture (the 'Indenture') 
and are general unsecured obligations of the Company, subordinated in right 
of payment to all existing and future Senior Debt of the Company (as defined 
in the Indenture). The Senior Subordinated Notes are guaranteed by each of 
the Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company (as defined in the Indenture). 
Each guarantee is a general unsecured obligation of the guaranteeing 
Restricted Subsidiary, subordinated in right of payment to all existing and 
future Senior Debt of each guaranteeing Restricted Subsidiary. The 
guaranteeing Restricted Subsidiaries are HCCMC, HIMC, HLVMC and HTMC. 

                                       17
<PAGE>

Interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 
and December 1 of each year. The Senior Subordinated Notes will mature on 
June 1, 2006. The Senior Subordinated Notes are redeemable at the option of 
the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after June 1, 2001 at 
prices ranging from 105.313% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid 
interest, to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest 
beginning June 1, 2004 and thereafter.

Prior to the Merger, the Company amended the Indenture with the changes becoming
operative at the Effective Time. The Company sought and received the consent of
the holders of its Senior Subordinated Notes to: (i) the one-time waiver of the
applicability of the Indenture to the Merger, including the waivers of (a) the
change of control covenant in the Indenture and (b) the 'Merger, Consolidation
or Sale of Assets' provision in the Indenture that might have restricted the
financing of the Merger and related transactions, and (ii) the amendment of the
definition of 'Consolidated Cash Flow' in the Indenture to add back certain
costs related to the Merger. 

The Indenture contains certain covenants that impose limitations on, among other
things, (i) the incurrence of additional indebtedness by the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) the payment of dividends, (iii) the repurchase of
capital stock and the making of certain other Restricted Payments and Restricted
Investments (as defined in the Indenture) by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary, (iv) mergers, consolidations and sales of assets by the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary, (v) the creation or incurrence of liens on the assets
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, and (vi) transactions by the
Company or any of its subsidiaries with Affiliates (as defined in the
Indenture). These limitations are subject to a number of qualifications and
exceptions as described in the Indenture.

As of February 28, 1999, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under
the Credit Facility, the Certificates of Designation and the Indenture.

At the time of the Merger the Company borrowed $172 million under the Credit 
Facility and used the proceeds to retire the HAC Loan. Additionally, the 
Company paid approximately $23.0 million in the aggregate for: (i) the 
consent fee due to the consenting holders of the Senior Subordinated Notes, 
(ii) debt issuance costs of the Credit Facility, and (iii) compensation and 
pension benefits due to the change of control resulting from the Merger.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company received $10.0 million 
from the sale of marketable securities and received payment in full of the 
approximate $1.8 million due the Company under notes from a related party 
trust. During the first quarter, the Company expended approximately $6.4 
million on capital improvements and replacements, including approximately 
$1.0 million on the parking garage under construction at Harveys Casino Hotel 
in Council Bluffs. The Company has budgeted approximately $18.6 million for 
maintenance capital expenditures and property improvements and approximately 
$15.0 million for construction of the parking garage in fiscal 1999. From the 
Effective Time through February 28, 1999, the Company reduced the outstanding 
balance under the Credit Facility by $27.0 million. 

                                       18
<PAGE>

At February 28, 1999, the Company had $295.0 million in long-term debt 
consisting of $150.0 million of Senior Subordinated Notes and $145.0 million 
outstanding under the Credit Facility. The Company had approximately $27.3 
million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $39.2 million 
available under the Credit Facility, net of an outstanding letter of credit 
and subject to compliance with certain financial covenants.

The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows 
from operations and its borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility will be 
sufficient to meet the cash requirements of its existing operations during, 
at the least, the next twelve months, including capital improvements and 
replacements at the operating properties and debt service requirements. The 
Company currently believes that its capital expenditures in respect to 
existing operations beyond the next twelve months will consist of debt 
service requirements and capital improvements and replacements in the 
ordinary course, which the Company expects to be met by then-existing cash, 
cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility. 
The Company does not currently anticipate incurring balloon or other 
extraordinary payments on long-term obligations or any other extraordinary 
demands or commitments beyond the next twelve months. The Company does not 
expect that cash dividends will be paid on the Preferred Stock prior to 2004 
because of, among other reasons, restrictions in the Credit Facility and the 
Indenture on the payment of cash dividends.

YEAR 2000

Many technological systems (including those that employ embedded technology such
as microcontrollers) rely on hardware, software and components that were
originally designed to recognize a date by using the last two digits of a four
digit year. Tasks performed by technological systems using these truncated
fields may not work properly for dates from 2000 and beyond. This could result
in system failures or miscalculations causing disruptions of, or the inability
to engage in, normal business operations. This is generally known as the "Year
2000 Problem".

The Company has established a task force to coordinate its response to the 
Year 2000 Problem. This task force includes the Company's Chief Executive 
Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and the Director of Information Systems as 
well as support staff.

The Year 2000 compliance programs developed for the Company consist of the 
following phases: (i) compilation of an inventory of systems and equipment 
that may cause a Year 2000 Problem ('Critical Systems and Equipment'), (ii) 
identification and prioritization of the Critical Systems and Equipment from 
the inventory compiled and inquiries of third parties with whom the Company 
does significant business (i.e., vendors and suppliers) as to the state of 
their Year 2000 readiness, (iii) analysis of the identified Critical Systems 
and Equipment to determine which systems and equipment are not Year 2000 
compliant and evaluation of the costs to repair or replace those systems, and 
(iv) repair or replacement and testing of noncompliant Critical Systems and 
Equipment and the testing of Critical Systems and Equipment for which 
representation as to Year 2000 compliance has not been received or for which 
representation has been received but has not been confirmed.

                                       19
<PAGE>

The Company is not currently planning to use any independent verification and
validation process to assure the reliability of their risk and cost estimates.
However, this position will continue to be reevaluated as the Year 2000
compliance programs proceed at the Company's facilities.

The Company also initiated a more limited review of the Year 2000 Problem as it
relates to business associates of the Company, including material vendors,
suppliers, financial institutions and utility and communications providers. The
scope of the review was generally limited to inquiries of such business
associates. Based on the responses received, the Company is not aware of any
Year 2000 Problem impact on a material business associate that would have a
material adverse affect on the Company's business operations. However, there can
be no assurances that all of the Company's material business associates will be
Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner.

The Company relies on systems in many areas of its business operations
('Systems') including casino operations, retail outlets, hotel operations,
accounting and finance, facilities and environmental, communications and
administration. The Company has not developed a comprehensive contingency plan,
although a number of Systems are 'backed up' by manual procedures that have been
employed during times Systems have been unavailable. The Company will continue
to assess the need for a comprehensive contingency plan as implementation of the
corrective action plan continues and as the review of business associates'
readiness progresses.

The Company is in the process of implementing its corrective action plan. The 
Company is utilizing internal resources and external resources to achieve the 
plan objectives. The Company anticipates that the required modifications, 
upgrades and replacements of Systems will most likely be completed in the 
second quarter of fiscal year 1999, allowing for additional testing and 
revisions, if necessary, before 2000. The Company believes that its 
corrective action plan, including the timelines, is adequate and realistic. 
Nevertheless, if one or more of the Company's Systems has been overlooked or 
if implementation of the corrective action plan fails to achieve Year 2000 
compliance for one or more Systems, or if a key business associate fails to 
provide necessary products or services due to Year 2000 Problem business 
disruptions, there could be a material adverse impact on the Company's 
business operations or financial performance. With respect to the Company's 
Systems, the most reasonable likely worst case scenario if a Year 2000 
Problem occurred would be the necessity to perform manually those procedures 
customarily performed by a noncompliant System. This could result in a 
slowdown of normal business operations and would likely be more costly. The 
performing of procedures manually would continue until such time as the 
noncompliant System could be made compliant or a suitable alternative could 
be found and installed. With respect to a key business associate, the most 
reasonable likely worst case scenario if a Year 2000 Problem occurred would 
be the failure to deliver to the Company essential utilities, which could 
result in the inability of one or more of the Company's hotel/casinos to 
operate and require the affected property or properties to close until such 
utilities could be restored.

                                       20
<PAGE>

The Company estimates that the costs to achieve Year 2000 compliance, including
those costs that are capitalizable, will be approximately $4.4 million and will
be expended through 2000. The Company incurred costs of approximately $1.0
million in fiscal year 1998, including approximately $0.7 million that was
capitalized. An additional $1.9 million has been expended in the first quarter
of fiscal 1999, of which approximately $1.6 million has been capitalized. The
Company expects to incur an additional cost of approximately $1.5 million in
fiscal 1999, approximately $1.4 million of which will be for capital
acquisitions. The Company believes that its expenditures in fiscal 2000 will not
be material. These estimates are based on the Companys' evaluation and
experience to date and are subject to modification as implementation of the
corrective action plan progresses. There can be no assurances that the estimated
costs are adequate or achievable, and actual costs could materially differ from
the estimate.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. The
Company had no variable rate debt at November 30, 1998, however, as a result of
the financing of the Merger in part through the Credit Facility, the Company now
has variable rate debt. The amount outstanding under the Credit Facility at
February 28, 1999 was $145 million, subject to a one-month LIBOR based interest
rate of 7.94%. Assuming an identical outstanding balance for the remainder of
the fiscal year, a hypothetical immediate 100 basis point increase in interest
rates would increase interest expense for the remainder of the year by
approximately $1.1 million.

Additionally, the fair value of the Company's fixed rate long-term debt,
consisting of the $150 million of Senior Subordinated Notes and the $7.5
million premium on the Senior Subordinated Notes at February 28, 1999, and the
fair value of the Company's fixed rate Preferred Stock issued as part of the
Merger financing, are sensitive to differences between market interest rates and
rates at the time of issuance. A hypothetical immediate 100 basis point increase
in interest rates at February 28, 1999 would have decreased the fair value of
the Company's fixed rate long-term debt by approximately $14.2 million.
Conversely, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would have increased
the fair value of the Company's outstanding long-term debt at February 28, 1999
by approximately $17.3 million. A hypothetical immediate 100 basis point
increase in interest rates would have decreased the fair value of the Company's
fixed rate Preferred Stock by approximately $3.8 million at February 28, 1999.
Conversely, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would have increased
the fair value of the Preferred Stock by approximately $4.4 million.

The Company did not enter into any derivative financial contracts in fiscal 1998
or the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The Company may use derivative financial
instruments in the future as a risk management tool. The Company does not use
derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
