Harrah’s Chester has become the second largest facility in the region with over $326 million in<br />
2010. Sands Bethlehem and Penn National are the fourth and fifth largest with over $286<br />
million and $268 million, respectively. Mount Airy sits in sixth with $163 million in revenue.<br />
Sugar House, which opened in September 2010, had revenue of $54 million in 2010, but is not<br />
included in the table because it did not have a full year of operation. The table below shows the<br />
share of revenue for each property in the Eastern Region from 2007 to 2010.<br />

Mohegan Sun, PARX, and Chester have seen their share of positions fall from 2007 to 2010 as<br />
well, while the total positions in the Eastern Region has grown from approximately 6,100 to over<br />
19,000 positions. No single facility dominates the region in terms of positions, as the largest<br />
share of positions belongs to PARX, which only claims 19.6% of the region’s positions. One<br />
thing to note is that Mt. Airy, unlike the other facilities, has not expanded its position offerings<br />
significantly since starting operations. Mt. Airy has only added approximately 300 positions<br />
between opening and 2010, 2 while Chester added 750 positions and Mohegan Sun and PARX<br />
have each added more than 1,500 positions. Even Penn National and Sands Bethlehem have<br />
increased their position count despite only being open for a few years. The regional breakdown<br />
of positions is shown below.<br />
2 Mount Airy currently has 250 fewer slot machines than it did at opening, but it has added 72 tables.<br />
