<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On June&nbsp;8, 2016, John Farahi, the Company&#146;s Co-Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, addressed the stockholders at the Annual Meeting.&#160; Among other things, Mr.&nbsp;Farahi gave an update with respect to the ongoing construction at Monarch Casino Black Hawk.&#160; As previously disclosed, the Company is working on its master plan to expand and convert Monarch Casino Black Hawk into a full-scale casino resort.&#160; Construction of a new 9-story parking structure began in the first quarter of 2015 and will increase on-site parking from approximately 500 spaces to approximately 1,500 spaces.&#160; Upon completion of the new parking structure, the existing parking structure will be razed to make room for the new hotel tower and casino expansion.&#160; The general contractor has informed the Company that it estimates completion of the new parking structure will be delayed by approximately three months, or to the third quarter of 2016.&#160; The Company does not expect the construction delay to increase the construction costs of the parking structure.&#160; The remaining cost of the parking structure-related work is expected to be approximately $7-$10 million, which the Company expects to fund primarily from operating cash flow and, to a lesser extent, from its credit facility.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As a result of the delay, the Company now expects to begin construction of the new hotel tower and casino expansion during the first quarter of 2017.&#160; The new 23-story tower will nearly double the existing casino space and will include approximately 500 hotel rooms, an upscale spa and pool facility, three additional restaurants and additional bars.&#160; Tower floors will be opened as they are finished beginning with the casino expansion and additional restaurants.&#160; The Company currently expects opening of the entire tower in the first quarter of 2019 at a total cost of approximately $229-$234 million.&#160; The cost is expected to be financed through a combination of operating cash flow and an amendment or replacement of the Company&#146;s credit facility.&#160; The Company&#146;s current credit facility will mature in November&nbsp;2016, and before that time, it expects to negotiate a new or amended credit facility with sufficient borrowing capacity to complete the expansion.&#160; The Company can provide no assurance that any project will be completed on schedule, if at all, or within established budgets, or that any project will result in increased earnings to it.&#160; In addition, no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to enter into a new or amended credit facility on a timely basis, if at all, or upon terms favorable to it.</font></p>
