NOTE 2 — FLORIDA GAMING RECOVERIES

During February 2012, the Company received $0.8 million in proceeds upon the opening of Casino Miami Jai-Alai, a slots and jai-alai facility in Miami, Florida. These proceeds partially reimbursed Calder Race Course ("Calder") for expenditures made during 2005 related to the slot machine referendum held in Miami-Dade County. Due to uncertainties regarding collectability, the Company did not recognize a reduction of expense upon the execution of the agreement during 2005, because reimbursement was not payable until the opening of Casino Miami Jai-Alai. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recognized $0.8 million as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses from the recovery. In addition, the Company recognized $0.2 million as a reduction to its operating expenses from a recovery of pari-mutuel accounts receivable from the owners of Casino Miami Jai-Alai, which had been previously reserved due to uncertainties regarding collectability.
