ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
As a result of the inability of the New Jersey legislature to pass a budget, and in response to an order from the New Jersey Casino Control Commission, we have been forced to suspend gaming operations at our three Atlantic City casino hotels as of 8:00 a.m. Wednesday, July 5th. All other operating areas, including hotel, food and beverage and entertainment operations, will continue to operate under their normal schedule.
In response to the forced suspension of casino operations we have determined that all non union employees in the affected areas of operations will be given the option to 1; use accumulated vacation and paid time off, or 2; take time off without pay. Union employees will be treated in a manner consistent with their negotiated contracts but generally will be off without pay until gaming operations resume. We will monitor demand in the non casino areas of our operations during the closure and adjust operating hours and staffing levels accordingly.
