Type of Reporting Person IC INTRODUCTION This is amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed jointly by Stein Roe & Farnham Incorporated ("Stein Roe") and Keyport Life Insurance Company ("Keyport") (collectively, the "Reporting Persons") relating to the Common Stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock") of Riviera Holdings Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("Riviera"). The cover page, Item 4 and Item 6 are hereby amended. All other items remain unchanged from previous filing of this Schedule 13D. In its capacity as investment adviser for Keyport, Stein Roe has investment authority over the disposition of the Riviera Common Stock and Stein Roe may be deemed to be a "beneficial owner" within the meaning of Rule 13d- 3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 of such Common Stock. Stein Roe, however, disclaims actual beneficial ownership of the Riviera Common Stock covered by this report and held by Keyport. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. The response to Item 6 is incorporated herein. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer. In connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated September 16, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement") pursuant to which Riviera is to be acquired by R&E Gaming Corp. (the "Purchaser"), subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals, on September 16, 1997, Keyport entered into an Option and Voting Agreement (the "Option Agreement") by and among R&E Gaming Corp., as Purchaser, and Morgens, Waterfall, Vintiadis & Company, Keyport Life Insurance Company and SunAmerica Life Insurance Company (each a "Selling Shareholder"). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, which is subject to regulatory approvals, Keyport and each Selling Shareholder granted the Purchaser an option to purchase all of its shares totaling approximately 56% of the Common Shares of Riviera. In addition, Keyport and each other Selling Shareholder agreed to vote in favor of the acquisition of Riviera by the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. If the transactions contemplated by the Option Agreement and Merger Agreement are consummated, the Purchaser will become the owner of 100% of the Riviera shares of Riviera. The Option Agreement will impede the acquisition of control of Riviera by another person pending consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Option Agreement is incorporated by reference and a copy is attached as Exhibit A hereto. Item 7. Exhibits.

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Purchaser is entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Riviera Merger Agreement") with Riviera Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Purchaser ("Acquisition Sub"), and Riviera Holdings Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("RHC"), pursuant to which the Acquisition Sub shall merge with and into RHC (the "Riviera Merger"), upon the terms and conditions set forth therein; WHEREAS, each Seller desires that the Purchaser, Acquisition Sub and RHC enter into the Riviera Merger Agreement; WHEREAS, as partial consideration for the grant by the Sellers of the option hereunder, the Purchaser agrees to pay to each Seller an amount equal to 20% of the Purchase Price (as defined in Section 1.2(a) hereof) for the shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of RHC (the "Common Stock") owned by such Seller, if the transactions contemplated by the Riviera Merger Agreement are not consummated, other than as a result of certain circumstances specified herein; WHEREAS, in order to ensure payment of the obligation described in the immediately preceding paragraph, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Riviera Merger Agreement, the Purchaser has delivered a letter of credit in the face amount of $3,817,680 to Morgens, Waterfall, a letter of credit in the face amount of $2,571,480 to Keyport, and a letter of credit in the face amount of $2,285,760 to SunAmerica, each of which is substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the "Letters of Credit"), each of which shall provide that it may be drawn on in the event the transactions contemplated by the Riviera Merger Agreement are not consummated, other than as a result of certain circumstances as specified herein; WHEREAS, Morgens, Waterfall beneficially owns 1,272,560 shares of Common Stock, which shares represent approximately 25.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, Keyport beneficially owns 857,160 shares of Common Stock, which Shares represent approximately 17.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and SunAmerica beneficially owns 761,920 shares of Common Stock, which shares represent approximately 15.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (such shares of Common Stock owned by the Sellers being the "Shares"); and WHEREAS, in consideration for entering into the Riviera Merger Agreement, the Sellers desire to (i) grant to the Purchaser options to purchase, from the Sellers, all (but not less than all) of the Shares held by them as set forth above upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and (ii) vote the Shares in the manner set forth herein; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows: ARTICLE I GRANT OF OPTION SECTION 1.1 Grant of Option. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser an irrevocable option (individually, a "Purchase Option" and, together with each Purchase Option granted by each of the other Sellers, the "Purchase Options") to purchase the Shares owned by such Seller. The Purchase Option shall be exercisable, in whole and not in part, by written notice (the "Exercise Notice") by the Purchaser delivered to each Seller, at any time after the date hereof, but not later than the date on which the Riviera Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 6.1(c) thereof or, if the Riviera Merger Agreement has otherwise been terminated, then June 1, 1998 (such period being hereinafter referred to as the "Exercise Period"). No one Purchase Option shall be exercised individually unless all Purchase Options are exercised. In addition, in the event the Riviera Merger is consummated, the Purchase Options shall terminate automatically, the Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration set forth in the Riviera Merger Agreement; it being understood that the Riviera Merger Agreement provides for a reduction of the consideration payable, upon consummation of the Riviera Merger, to each of the Sellers on account of any interest previously paid to the Sellers pursuant to Section 1.2(b) hereof. Each of the Sellers hereby consents to the reduction of the consideration payable to them under the terms of the Riviera Merger Agreement by the amount of the interest paid to them pursuant to Section 1.2(b) hereof. Upon exercise of the Purchase Options, subject to the conditions contained in Article V hereof, each of the Sellers shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase and accept from each such Seller at the closing (the "Closing") to be held as soon as possible after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement (the date on which the Closing occurs shall be referred to herein as the "Closing Date"), such Seller's rights, title and interest in and to the Shares in exchange for the Purchase Price (as defined below). SECTION 1.2 Purchase Price. (a) Upon exercise of the Purchase Options, the Purchaser agrees to pay to each of the Sellers, on the Closing Date, in consideration for the purchase of the Shares, an aggregate amount equal to $15 per Share, (the "Initial Purchase Price" and, when adjusted as provided in this Section 1.2, the "Purchase Price"), for an aggregate amount of $43,374,600 payable as follows: (i) $19,088,400 shall be paid to Morgens, Waterfall, (ii) $12,857,400 shall be paid to Keyport and (iii) $11,428,800 shall be paid to SunAmerica, in addition to any accrued but unpaid interest payments required by Section 1.2(b). (b) During the period commencing on June 1, 1997 and ending on the date immediately preceding the earlier of the Closing Date or the date this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the Purchaser agrees to pay to each of the Sellers their pro rata portion, based on the number of Shares owned, of the daily interest of $8,318.42 per day, which represents interest calculated at 7% per annum on the Initial Purchase Price for all Shares, payable monthly in arrears no later than 5 days after the date of each monthly anniversary of such execution, unless otherwise provided in this Section 1.2(b). The first payment to be made by the Purchaser shall be made on the date of execution and shall consist of all amounts due and payable until such date under this Section 1.2(b). All payments required to be made in accordance with this Section 1.2(b) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as each Seller shall have designated on Exhibit B hereto. (c) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock shall have been changed (or RHC shall have declared a record date with respect to a prospective change of the Common Stock) into a different number of shares or a different class of shares by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares, this Agreement (including the terms "Share" and "Common Stock") will be deemed to relate to all securities issued with respect to the Common Stock, and the Purchase Price shall be correspondingly adjusted to reflect such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares. (d) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, any dividend or other distribution (other than a stock dividend, which shall require the adjustment set forth in clause (c) above) is declared or paid upon the Common Stock (whether in cash, property or securities), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the per share amount of such dividend or distribution (in the case of non-cash dividends or distributions, by an amount equal to the fair market value thereof). (e) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, RHC or any of its subsidiaries shall repurchase or otherwise acquire any shares of Common Stock (other than shares issued pursuant to warrants, options, convertible securities and other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock referred to in Section 2.2 of the Riviera Merger Agreement or issued in accordance with Section 4.1 thereof), and the per share consideration paid by RHC or its subsidiaries (in the case of non-cash consideration, valued of the fair market value thereof) exceeds the Purchase Price, the total Purchase Price for all Shares shall be reduced to the price determined by dividing (i) the difference between (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such repurchase or redemption multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such purchase or redemption minus (B) the consideration, if any, paid by RHC for such repurchase or redemption, by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such repurchase or redemption. SECTION 1.3 Termination of Riviera Merger Agreement. (a) The Sellers shall be entitled to receive, as partial consideration for the grant by the Sellers of the Purchase Options to the Purchaser hereunder, an amount equal to $3,817,680 (in the case of Morgens, Waterfall), $2,571,480 (in the case of Keyport) and $2,285,760 (in the case of SunAmerica), if (A) the Riviera Merger Agreement is terminated (except pursuant to a Non- Payment Termination Event (as defined herein) or (B) the Riviera Merger does not occur in accordance with the terms thereof on or before April 2, 1998 (or, if the termination date of the Riviera Merger Agreement is extended in accordance with Section 6.1(c) thereof, June 2, 1998) for any reason other than the occurrence of a Non-Payment Termination Event, provided that the Sellers shall be entitled to the consideration described above if the Riviera Merger is not consummated as a result of the breach of the Riviera Merger Agreement by Purchaser, Acquisition Sub, or Allen E. Paulson of any covenants or warranties made by or about them in the Riviera Merger Agreement; and provided further, in any event, that no Seller shall be entitled to such compensation if the Riviera Merger Agreement is not consummated as a result of the breach of this Agreement by such Seller. A "Non-Payment Termination Event" shall mean the termination of the Riviera Merger Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.1(a), 6.1(b), 6.1(c) (because of the failure to satisfy Sections 5.1(a), 5.1(c), 5.1(d), 5.2(b) or 5.2(c)), 6.1(d), 6.1(e)(iii) or 6.1(e)(iv) thereof. In addition, in the event that the Riviera Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 6.1(c) because of the failure of Purchaser, Acquisition Sub or Mr. Allen E. Paulson to obtain the required approvals of the Gaming Authorities, then such event shall constitute a Non-Payment Termination Event, unless Mr. Allen E. Paulson is in breach of his representation and covenant contained in Section 6.2(c) of the Riviera Merger Agreement. (b) In order to ensure payment of the obligation described in Section 1.3(a) hereof, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall deliver a Letter of Credit in the face amount of $3,817,680 to Morgens, Waterfall, a Letter of Credit in the face amount of $2,571,480 to Keyport and a Letter of Credit in the face amount of $2,285,760 to SunAmerica. In the event that any Seller shall be entitled to receive compensation pursuant to Section 1.3(a) hereof, such Seller shall be entitled to receive demand payment under the Letter of Credit issued to such Seller. (c) In the event that the Riviera Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to a Non-Payment Termination Event other than Sections 6.1(a) or 6.1(c) thereof, each Seller shall immediately pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to all payments received by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement (each such payment, an "Option Payment"); provided, that the Sellers shall be entitled to retain such payments if either (i) all Shares shall be purchased pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) the Riviera Merger is not consummated as a result of the breach by the Purchaser, Acquisition Sub, or Allen E. Paulson of any covenants or warranties made by or about them in the Riviera Merger Agreement. ARTICLE II REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SECTION 2.1 Representations and Warranties of the Sellers.
