HEALTH & SAFETY PLAN

Each operating department will have its own customized set of procedures, even more detailed than the summary presented here. It relies on the best available science on sanitization methods.

*Please note this plan, just like the pandemic, is ever changing and growing to cover new developments and ensure we are doing our best to be proactive to guest and team members needs and safety.

Spirit Mountain Casino’s health and safety plan was designed to enhance the safety of our guests and team members. It emphasizes the hygiene and sanitation practices of our entertainment complex meet, if not exceed, the recommendations of the CDC. This plan also includes new sanitation best practices that meet and exceed our already vigorous procedures and standards.

As this plan continues to grow, we have developed an example list of major additions and/or temporary safety measures that are being put into place in phase one (1) of the opening:

• All guests must be of legal gaming age 21 and older. • Limited Hours of Operation:

Sunday-Thursday 6:00 a.m. – 2:00 a.m. Friday & Sunday 6:00 a.m. – 4:00 a.m.

SAFETY TECHNOLOGY

ELECTROSTATIC SPRAYERS

THERMAL IMAGING CAMERAS/TEMPERATURE SCANNING

Electrostatic sprayers will be utilized to apply hospital grade disinfectant on high touch surfaces to be applied during temporary daily closure hours (noted below) to slot machines, tables, gaming chairs, hotel lobby, public spaces, business offices, etc. This technology, which uses the highest classification of disinfectant recommended by the CDC and WHO to treat known pathogens, is also utilized in hospitals, on airplanes and in restaurants.

Limited Hours of Operation to Allow for Daily Deep Cleaning

Sunday – Thursday 6:00 a.m. – 2:00 a.m.

Friday & Saturday 6:00 a.m. – 4:00 a.m.

All major points of entry will be limited to allow our security to conduct non-invasive temperature checks utilizing thermal imagining cameras. We have installed thermal scanning cameras at all major entrances. Any employee or guest who has a temperature of 100.4 or higher will not be allowed entry into the property and will be directed towards appropriate medical care. We have implemented employee-screening measures to assess signs and symptoms of infection and the possibility of recent exposure to someone infected with the virus. Employees will be required to go through temperature screening before entering the property. Employees that are not well or who reside with an infected individual will not be allowed to work on property. We ask that guests abide by a similar self-screening protocol prior to arriving and during your stay. If you have reason to believe you may have been exposed to the virus, we strongly urge you to follow CDC guidelines for self-quarantine and not travel to our property. We will look forward to welcoming you once the self-quarantine period is complete.

MANDATORY MASKS AND PERSONAL

PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)

Employees will be provided and required to wear an approved mask when on property. Spirit Mountain Casino require all our guests and employees to wear masks in public areas and will offer masks to those who need one, free of charge, while supplies last. Face shields are not an approved substitution for face masks at Spirit Mountain. Gloves will continue to be worn by employees who require them to perform their job duties, such as food handlers and employees who clean public areas.

• Beverage servers will be available throughout the gaming floor with increased rotations.

• Self-service beverage stations are open for guest utilization for complimentary beverages. These stations are regularly cleaned and sanitized.

RESPECTFUL DISTANCING

A respectful physical distancing policy will be in place, with signage serving as reminders throughout our property. Guests and employees are required to practice respectful distancing by giving others their space including standing in line queues, using elevators or moving around the property. Signage throughout the property displays capacity of venues as well as lines for services.

From time-to-time, respectful distancing will be challenging—in those cases, reasonable mitigating protocols will be implemented, such as plexiglass barriers. Plexiglass barriers may be installed in areas throughout the casino and lobbies, where appropriate, for the safety of our guests and employees. Signage will be installed throughout our property to help guide employees and guests on how to safely practice respectful distancing.
