NorAm Gaming & Entertainment Inc. Enters Into Agreement to Purchase 45% Interest
in Honduras Slot Operation for $1.6 Million

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 7, 2001--NorAm Gaming & Entertainment Inc. (OTCBB:NORE - news) Julius Csurgo, CEO, announced today that the company has entered into an agreement to purchase a 45% interest in Casino 777 from Catuca S.A. for $1.6 million.

The agreement is structured as a convertible debenture with conversion rights up to 3 years to a Preferred Series of stock. The conversion price is set at $2.00 in year one, $5.00 in year two and $7.50 in year three. This Preferred Series has a 10 to 1 conversion ratio of common stock, but cannot be converted to common stock for two years from the date of conversion to preferred. ``Casino 777 is the company's first `Slotsino.' We consulted on this project and since it's grand opening Casino 777 has exceeded revenue projections. This transaction will bring immediate revenues to the company since this `Slotsino' has been operating for over 3 months,'' said Csurgo.

Casino 777, located in Tegucigalpa, the capital city of Honduras, is an upscale boutique ``Slotsino'' with 100 slot machines in operation and also offering food and beverage services. Csurgo added, ``With gross revenues projected to be around $2.5 million annually we feel that we can bring 15 percent to the bottom line for NorAm. If all goes as planned this transaction could mean $0.01 - $0.015 (EPS). This is in line with our business plan which projects that every 100 unit `Slotsino' the company acquires brings a minimum of $0.01 EPS based on the current common stock that is outstanding.'' The closing of the transaction is expected to take place within 30 days.

NorAm Gaming & Entertainment is a multi-faceted gaming company concentrating on the Latin American marketplace.
