EXPLANATORY NOTE: This Current Report on Form 8-K discloses events that occurred on July 16, 2010, in connection with Trump Entertainment Resorts, Inc.’s emergence from bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (as defined below). Information about other related events occurring on such date is contained in a separate Current Report on Form 8-K being filed by Trump Entertainment Resorts, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission substantially concurrently with this Current Report.

(a) Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. On July 16, 2010 (the “Consummation Date”), upon consummation of the Supplemental Modified Sixth Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code Proposed by the Debtors and the Ad Hoc Committee of Holders of 8.5% Senior Secured Notes Due 2015 (the “Ad Hoc Committee”), as filed with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey in Camden, New Jersey (the “Bankruptcy Court”), in final form, on May 7, 2010 (the “Plan of Reorganization”), Trump Entertainment Resorts Holdings, L.P. (“TER Holdings”), Trump Entertainment Resorts, Inc. (the “Company” and the “Registrant”) and certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), each as reorganized pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with Beal Bank, SSB, as collateral agent and administrative agent, and Icahn Partners LP, Icahn Partners Master Fund LP, Icahn Partners Master Fund II LP and Icahn Partners Master Fund III LP, as initial lenders. The indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement represents term loans (collectively, the “Term Loans”), in the total principal amount, as of the Consummation Date, of approximately $356.4 million, of which, as of the Consummation Date, $334.0 million comprised the Interest Bearing Component (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) and approximately $22.4 million comprised the Non-Interest Component (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). A copy of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires quarterly principal amortization payments equal to 0.25% of the total Interest Bearing Component of the Term Loans as of the Consummation Date. All indebtedness outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement matures on December 31, 2015. Until such maturity date, TER Holdings is required to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Interest Bearing Component of the Term Loans at a rate per annum equal to 12%, payable quarterly in arrears. No interest shall accrue, become due, or be required to be paid with respect to the Non-Interest Component of the Term Loans. Under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the principal balance of the Non-Interest Component of the Term Loans will be reduced by the aggregate amount of interest paid on the Interest Bearing Component from and after the Consummation Date. In addition, the principal balance of the Interest Bearing Component and/or the Non-Interest Component may be subject to reduction, to the extent and in the manner determined by the Bankruptcy Court, in connection with a pending motion made by the Company before the Bankruptcy Court seeking recharacterization of certain amounts previously paid to the lenders under the Company’s pre-petition credit agreement.

TER Holdings may elect, at its option, to prepay Term Loans outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, subject, during the eighteen (18) month period after the Consummation Date, to a prepayment premium of: (x) in the case of an optional prepayment made during the period from the Consummation Date to the date that is six (6) calendar months thereafter (the “Six Month Date”), 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Interest Bearing Component of the Term Loans then being prepaid and (y) in the case of an optional prepayment made during the period following the Six Month Date to the date that is twelve (12) calendar months thereafter, 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Interest Bearing Component of the Term Loans then being prepaid. TER Holdings may be required to make mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans in connection with asset dispositions, debt and equity issuances and extraordinary receipts. In addition, beginning on March 31, 2011, and on each subsequent anniversary of such date that occurs prior to the maturity date, TER Holdings is required to offer to the lenders to prepay portions of the Term Loans equal to 50% of the Free Cash Flow (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) for the calendar year then most recently ended.

Amounts outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries and secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

As required by the terms of the Plan of Reorganization, on the Consummation Date, the Company paid to the pre-petition first lien lenders (who are also the lenders under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) the amount of $125.0 million in cash. The balance of the outstanding loans under the pre-petition credit agreement (net of this $125.0 million payment) were restructured pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization into the new Term Loans as of the Consummation Date.

Under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants impose restrictions with respect to, among other things, (i) incurring liens, (ii) incurring debt, (iii) mergers or consolidations, (iv) sales or other dispositions of assets, (v) investments, (vi) dividends or distributions on, or repurchases of, equity interests, (vii) prepaying or repurchasing debt and (viii) certain capital expenditures.

(b) Common Stock Registration Rights Agreement. On the Consummation Date, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) no later than 30 days after the Consummation Date, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective by 60 days after the Consummation Date, a registration statement to register for resale the new common stock of the Company issued pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and held by the Backstop Parties (as defined below) and other eligible holders of new common stock who elect to become parties thereto. In addition, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Backstop Parties have piggyback registration rights and have agreed to certain limitations on their registration rights, including cutbacks and a holder standstill period.

A copy of the Registration Rights Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

(c) Amended and Restated Services Agreement. On the Consummation Date, the Company and TER Holdings entered into an amended and restated services agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with Donald J. Trump (“Mr. Trump”), Ivanka Trump (“Ms. Trump” and, together with Mr. Trump, the “Trump Parties”), which amends, restates and supersedes the previous services agreement entered into among the Company, TER Holdings and Mr. Trump in 2005. The Services Agreement provides that Mr. Trump is prohibited from consulting or providing services to, as well as being an officer, director or employee of any person (other than the Company) engaged directly, or through subsidiaries, in casino and gaming activities in any part of the designated restricted territories consisting of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware (the “Restricted Territories”). Further, Mr. Trump is limited with respect to his potential activities relating to, and any ownership by Mr. Trump of stock of, Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. The Services Agreement also provides that the Company may request either or both of the Trump Parties to participate in promotional, marketing or advertising activities on behalf of the Company on such terms as the Trump Parties and the Company may agree in their respective sole and absolute discretion. The Services Agreement will be in effect from the Consummation Date until either the Trademark License Agreement (as defined below) is terminated or upon termination pursuant to the terms of the Services Agreement, including upon 30 days notice by TER Holdings or the Company, with respect to a Trump Party in the event of such Trump Party’s death or upon notice by the Trump Parties following the occurrence of the Restricted Expiration Date (as defined in the Trademark License Agreement). A copy of the Services Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

(d) Second Amended and Restated Trademark License Agreement. On the Consummation Date, TER Holdings, the Company, and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Licensee Entities”) entered into a Second Amended and Restated Trademark License Agreement with the Trump Parties (the “Trademark License Agreement”), which amends, restates and supersedes the previous trademark license agreement among the Company, TER Holdings and Mr. Trump and provides that the Trump Parties grant the Licensee Entities a royalty-free license to use certain trademarks, service marks, names, domain names and related intellectual property associated with the name “Trump” and the Trump Parties (the “Trump Parties Intellectual Property”) in connection with TER Holdings’ casino and gaming activities relating to the Company’s three existing casino properties in Atlantic City, New Jersey (Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort, Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino and Trump Marina Hotel & Casino), subject to certain terms and conditions. The Trademark License Agreement shall be in effect from the Consummation Date until terminated pursuant to the terms of the Trademark License Agreement, including upon 30 days notice by TER Holdings, failure to use the Licensed Marks (as defined in the Trademark License Agreement) for 90 days, a sale of all of the casino properties, the use by the Licensee Entities of any of the Trump Parties Intellectual Property in a manner inconsistent with the Trademark License Agreement or certain other defaults by the Licensee Entities of the terms and provisions therein. A copy of the Trademark License Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

(e) DJT Warrants. On the Consummation Date, pursuant to the terms of a plan support agreement (the “DJT Settlement Agreement”) dated as of November 16, 2009, entered into among the Trump Parties, The Trump Organization, ACE Entertainment Holdings, Inc. and each of their respective affiliates or entities under the control, directly or indirectly, of the Trump Parties (collectively, the “DJT Parties”), and the holders of Second Lien Notes (as defined below), as approved by the Bankruptcy Court, and in connection with the DJT Parties waiving certain claims held by the DJT Parties against the Company and entering into the Services Agreement and the Trademark License Agreement, the Company issued to Mr. Trump warrants (the “DJT Warrants”), exercisable to purchase for cash up to 535,714 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (approximately 0.5% of the new common stock issued on the Consummation Date), at an exercise price of $123.74 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. The DJT Warrants expire five years from the Consummation Date.

A copy of the DJT Warrants is attached as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

On May 7, 2010, the Company obtained Bankruptcy Court approval to enter into a $24.0 million secured debtor-in-possession facility (the “DIP Note Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Debtors (as defined below), Wilmington Trust FSB, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “DIP Agent”), and the note purchasers party to the DIP Note Purchase Agreement. The Company subsequently entered into the DIP Note Purchase Agreement on May 25, 2010, and advances in the amount of $10.0 million were made by the lenders thereunder on June 10, 2010.

The DIP Note Purchase Agreement provided for a maturity date of the indebtedness thereunder that would be the earliest of (1)(x) six months from the closing date of such agreement and (y) five months after May 7, 2010, if that certain Amended and Restated Backstop Agreement, dated December 11, 2009 (as thereafter amended), among

2

the Company and members of the Ad Hoc Committee was not amended to extend the termination provisions thereunder, (2) the effective date of the Plan of Reorganization, (3) the date of confirmation of a plan of reorganization for the Company other than the Plan of Reorganization and (4) the acceleration of the indebtedness under the DIP Note Purchase Agreement as a result of the occurrence of an event of default (as defined therein).

The DIP Note Purchase Agreement contained various representations, warranties and covenants by the Debtors, including reporting requirements. The DIP Note Purchase Agreement provided for the payment of interest at a rate per annum equal to 10% payable on the earlier of the maturity date or the date on which an event of default occurred under the DIP Note Purchase Agreement.

On the Consummation Date, the DIP Note Purchase Agreement was canceled. All outstanding obligations under the DIP Note Purchase Agreement, consisting of $10.0 million of principal and $100,000 of accrued interest, together with fees and expenses payable to the DIP Agent, were repaid with proceeds from the sale by the Company of its new common stock pursuant to the rights offering and backstop commitments as provided for by the Plan of Reorganization.

In addition, pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the Second Lien Notes and the indenture pursuant to which such notes were issued were canceled.

As previously disclosed, on February 17, 2009 (the “Commencement Date”), the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions in the Bankruptcy Court seeking relief under the provisions of chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). These chapter 11 cases are being jointly administered under the caption In re: TCI 2 Holdings, LLC, et al Debtors, Chapter 11 Case Nos.: 09-13654 through 09-13658 through 09-13664 (JHW) (the “Chapter 11 Cases”).

On May 7, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Confirmation Order”) confirming the Plan of Reorganization proposed by the Debtors and the Ad Hoc Committee, as filed with the Bankruptcy Court, in final form, on May 7, 2010. A copy of the Confirmation Order, with a copy of the Plan of Reorganization as confirmed attached thereto, was attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May 12, 2010. A copy of a disclosure statement relating to a prior version of the Plan of Reorganization, as approved by the Bankruptcy Court previously in the Chapter 11 Cases (“AHC/Debtor Disclosure Statement”), was attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 28, 2009.

On July 16, 2010, the Plan of Reorganization became effective and the transactions contemplated by the Plan of Reorganization were consummated. A copy of the Company’s press release dated July 16, 2010, announcing the Consummation Date is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Company’s prepetition first lien lenders have appealed the Confirmation Order. That appeal was filed on May 17, 2010 and is currently pending before the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.
