The Maryland Jockey Club adheres to the American Gaming Association (AGA) Code of Conduct for Responsible Gaming, which became effective on September 15, 2004. Our company has always taken steps to promote responsible gaming, and has long established many of the AGA-prescribed measures. The AGA Code of Conduct represents a broad commitment by the entire gaming industry to make the public aware of responsible gaming resources, and incorporate responsible gaming into business operations.

Through our company's past performance as well as our implementation of the AGA Code of Conduct, The Maryland Jockey Club has demonstrated that we are fully committed to the highest level of ethical and responsible policies and procedures in our gaming practices.

To promote responsible gaming, the Maryland Jockey Club will continue to:

• Educate our employees through a variety of programs and methods on responsible gaming policies and procedures
