Press Release

TROPICANA MOVES FORWARD WITH BRAND NEW SLOT EXPERIENCE IN ATLANTIC CITY
CASINO CONTRACTS WITH NEW JERSEY SLOT SUPPLIER TO BRING NEW GAMBLING DESTINATION


ATLANTIC CITY, NEW JERSEY  (March 2008)
The Tropicana Casino & Resort announced today their plans to create a new slot environment in Atlantic City. The project is a result of a co-operative partnership with AC Coin & Slot®, who will design and fabricate this unique environment for the Tropicana.  The project will convert an elevated section of gaming floor into a mixed offering of IGT® slot product and complimentary environment fabrications that will transform the area into a festive and high-energy experience for casino guests. The project is slated to be open for casino guests in May 2008.


“In this increasingly hypercompetitive market surrounded by new properties coming online in the near future, it is important for us create this unique “one of a kind” environment that will visually and interactively excite all our visitors,” said Mark Giannantonio, President and Chief Operating Officer. “I want them to immediately feel they are in an atmosphere that puts them at ease and makes them feel they are a world away. Our goal is to create a space that further encompasses the vibe of The Quarter by evoking a Cuban infused flair and extending it to the next level on the casino floor. ”


“With a project like this, the Tropicana will be leading the way again in giving customers more reasons to visit their casino and make a trip to Atlantic City.   We have completed these types of projects for other casino partners throughout North America and are proud to be part of this one”, says AC Coin & Slot Executive, Jason Seelig,. “The overall concept will compliment the entire brand experience that the Trop has just completed throughout the rest of the property.  This is similar to a store in store concept that has been in retail industry for years. Mark Giannantonio’s foresight in implementing this kind of offering to evolve the gaming experience for Atlantic City market is exceptional “, he adds.
