    EVERBAY CAPITAL RELEASES LETTER TO GOLDEN ENTERTAINMENT'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS

    Proposes the immediate pursuit of a sale-leaseback of the Company's casino real estate and use of the proceeds to repay debt and pay a special dividend to shareholders.

Suggests that following the sale of the Company's real estate, the Board
