IMPORTANT REMINDER
June 3, 1996
Dear Stockholder:
Your proxy has not yet been received for the upcoming Annual Meeting of
Stockholders of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Inc. scheduled for Wednesday,
June 12, 1996. No matter how many or how few shares you own, your vote is
important.
Among other things, at the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to consider and
vote upon a proposal to approve increasing the number of shares issued under the
Stock Incentive Plan from 1,000,000 to 4,000,000 shares. The purpose of the
Stock Incentive Plan is to attract able persons to enter and remain in the
employ of the Company and provide a means whereby those key persons can acquire
and maintain stock ownership, thereby strengthening their commitment to the
welfare of the Company.
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote "for" the adoption of the
Amendment to the Stock Incentive Plan allowing for the increase of shares of
Common Stock reserved for issuance thereunder.
Additional information is contained in the Proxy Statement previously sent to
you. If you have any questions or need an additional copy of the Proxy
Statement, please call MacKenzie Partners, Inc., who is assisting us with the
proxy solicitation at (800) 322-2885 (toll-free) or (212) 929-5500 (collect).
Time is short. Even if you are able to attend the Annual Meeting in person,
please sign, date and return the enclosed duplicate proxy in the postage paid

We appreciate your prompt attention to voting your shares and thank you for
your continued interest in your Company.
Sincerely,
