MGM MIRAGE IS COMMITTED TO RESPONSIBLE
GAMING
MGM MIRAGE 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, MGM MIRAGE
has demonstrated that we are fully committed to the highest
