Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Item 2.06 Material Impairments

On March 4, 2012, we entered into a definitive purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to sell the Isle Casino Hotel in Biloxi, Mississippi to Golden Nugget Biloxi, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Landry’s, Inc., for approximately $45 million, subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions.  As a result of entering into the Purchase Agreement, management determined a material impairment and will record a noncash pretax charge of approximately $112 million related to this transaction during our fourth fiscal quarter ending April 29, 2012.  Our future financial statements will present the results of operations and assets related to our Biloxi property as discontinued operations and as assets held for sale.

A copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
