RIVERBOAT CORPORATION OF MISSISSIPPI - VICKSBURG AGREEMENT I.
This AGREEMENT is by and between the United States Department of the Treasury, Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) and Riverboat Corporation of Mississippi - Vicksburg, d/b/a Isle of Capri - Vicksburg (“ICV”), pursuant to 31 U.S.C. § 5321(a)(1) of the Bank Secrecy Act and 31 C.F.R. § 103.47(f), thereunder. II. Between January 1 through December 31, 1994, ICV failed to file at least 31 Currency Transaction Report by Casinos (“CTRC”) forms for currency transactions in an amount greater than $10,000 within the time required by 31 C.F.R. § 103.22, promulgated under § 5313 of the Bank Secrecy Act. III. FinCEN has determined that in failing to file the CTRCs as described in Paragraph II, above, ICV willfully violated the currency reporting provisions of the Bank Secrecy Act. Therefore, FinCEN has determined to assess a civil money penalty pursuant to 31 U.S.C. § 5321 and 31 C.F.R. § 103.47(f). IV. In order to resolve this controversy between the parties, and without admitting or denying the facts in Paragraph III, above, or admitting or denying liability under the Bank Secrecy Act, ICV consents to payment of a civil money penalty in the amount of $150,000.

VII. ICV understands and agrees that this AGREEMENT embodies the entire agreement between ICV and FinCEN relating to the assessment of civil money penalties under the Bank Secrecy Act. ICV further understands and agrees that there are no express or implied promises, representations, or agreements between ICV and FinCEN other than those expressly set forth or referred to in this document and that nothing in this document is binding on any other agency of government, whether federal, state, or local. This Agreement constitutes a complete settlement of civil liability of ICV for any reporting violations of the Bank Secrecy Act, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, which were identified by FinCEN in its letter to ICV dated June 24, 1998. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude any proceedings brought by FinCEN to enforce the terms of this Agreement, nor shall it constitute a waiver of any right, power, or authority of any other representatives of the United States or agencies thereof, including the Department of Justice, to bring other actions deemed appropriate.
