Corporate Governance

General. The Company’s by-laws provide that the number of members of the Board shall be determined from time to time by resolution of the directors. The Company’s Board should neither be too small to maintain the needed expertise and independence, nor too large so as to be inefficient in functioning.

Although none of the Company’s securities are listed on a national securities exchange and the Company is not subject to the rules of any national securities exchange, the independence of our directors is determined under the corporate governance rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market. The independence rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market include a series of objective tests, including that an “independent” person will not be employed by us and will not be engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, the Board is required to make a subjective determination as to each person that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the person’s responsibilities. The Board determined that, other than George Boyer, Darrell Burks and Charles Moore each of the directors on the Board was independent under the independence standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market. As discussed above, George Boyer resigned as a director of the Company on January 31, 2013, effective as of February 11, 2013. The Board determined that Mr. Burks is not independent under the standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market because his brother is a partner of Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s outside auditor. The Board determined that Mr. Moore is not independent under the standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market because he is a principal of Conway MacKenzie, Inc. which provided financial advisory services to the Company in 2010.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, the Board met 12 times. Each of the directors participated in 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and committee(s) on which he or she served during the 2012 fiscal year, during the period for which he or she was a director and/or a member of such committee.

It is the policy of our Board that directors are encouraged, but are not required, to attend all annual stockholders meetings. All of the members of the Board attended the 2012 Annual Meeting of stockholders.

The standing committees of the Board include an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and a Regulatory Compliance Committee.

Audit Committee. During the period beginning January 1, 2012 and ending May 22, 2012, the Audit Committee was comprised of John Bitove, Benjamin C. Duster IV and Yvette E. Landau. From May 22, 2012 to August 14, 2012, the Audit Committee was comprised of John Bitove, Darrell Burks and Benjamin C. Duster IV. Since August 14, 2012, the Audit Committee has been comprised of James A. Barrett, Jr., John Bitove and Darrell Burks. Mr. Duster acted as Chairman of the Audit Committee until May 22, 2012, at which time Mr. Burks assumed the role of Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accountants, examining the results of audits, reviewing internal accounting controls, and reviewing related party transactions. The duties of the Audit Committee are fully set forth in the charter adopted by that committee, a copy of which is available on the “investor info” page of our website at www.greektowncasino.com. The Board has determined that, with the exception of Mr. Burks, all Audit Committee members are “independent” as defined by the NASDAQ rules. The Audit Committee met five times in fiscal 2012.

Compensation Committee. From January 1, 2012 to August 14, 2012, the Compensation Committee was comprised of John Bitove, George Boyer and Freman Hendrix. During the period beginning August 14, 2012 and ending November 8, 2012, the Compensation Committee was comprised of John Bitove, Charles Moore and Freman Hendrix. Since November 8, 2012, the Compensation Committee has been comprised of John Bitove, James A. Barrett, Jr., and Freman Hendrix. Mr. Bitove acted as Chairman of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is comprised of two non-employee directors, whom the Board has determined are “independent” in accordance with applicable NASDAQ rules. Mr. Boyer acted as a member of the Compensation Committee, but was not an independent director. The Compensation Committee met five times in fiscal 2012. The Compensation Committee has a written charter, which is available on the “investor info” page of our website at www.greektowncasino.com.

The Compensation Committee’s principal functions are to:

●

develop and oversee the implementation of the Company’s compensation philosophy with respect to the directors and senior management of the Company;

●

assure that the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are compensated effectively in a non-discriminatory manner consistent with such compensation philosophy, internal equity considerations, market practice and the requirements of the appropriate employment laws and regulatory bodies; and

●

perform other functions or duties deemed appropriate by the Board.

The agenda for meetings of the Compensation Committee is determined by its Chairman. The Compensation Committee establishes, amends, reviews and approves the compensation and benefit plans with respect to officers and employees, including determining individual elements of total compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers, and reviewing the performance of the Company and its executive officers with respect to these elements of compensation. The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain, at the expense of the Company, outside legal or other expert advice, including financial advice, to the extent it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time. There were no changes to executive compensation in fiscal year 2012. Generally, however, in determining the compensation levels of the Company’s executive officers, the Compensation Committee may consider proposals from the Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of the Board with respect to the appropriate levels of bonus and equity compensation for the Company’s executive officers (other than the Chief Executive Officer). The Committee may delegate its duties and responsibilities to the Chief Executive Officer or the Chairman of the Board if it determines that such delegation is in the best interest of the Company and it is not prohibited by law from doing so. Neither the Company nor the Compensation Committee has engaged any compensation consultants to assist in determining or recommending the amount or form of compensation to be paid to the Company’s executive officers.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. During the period beginning January 1, 2012 and ending August 14, 2012, the Nominating Committee was comprised of George Boyer, Michael Duggan and Freman Hendrix. From August 14, 2012 to November 8, 2012, the Nominating Committee was comprised of Michael Duggan, Soohyung Kim and Freman Hendrix. Since November 8, 2012, the Nominating Committee has been comprised of Freman Hendrix, Charles Moore and, until his resignation on April 10, 2013, Soohyung Kim. Mr. Hendrix acts as Chairman of the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee is comprised of two non-employee directors, of whom the Board has determined are “independent” in accordance with applicable NASDAQ rules. Mr. Boyer acted as a member of the Nominating Committee, but was not an independent director. The purposes of the Nominating Committee are to assist the Board by identifying individuals qualified to become Board members and members of Board committees, lead the Board in its annual review of the Board’s and management’s performance, monitor the Company’s corporate governance structure, and periodically review and recommend to the Board any proposed changes to the Corporate Governance Guidelines. The duties of the Nominating Committee are fully set forth in the charter adopted by that committee, a copy of which is available on the “investor info” page of our website at www.greektowncasino.com. The Nominating Committee met eight times during fiscal 2012.

In consultation with, and with the assistance of, the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer, the Nominating Committee, among other things: (i) identifies candidates for election to the Board; (ii) gathers information on such candidates; (iii) conducts interviews and holds meetings with candidates; (iv) makes recommendations to the full Board as to particular candidates to fill vacancies on the Board from time to time; and (v) makes recommendations to the full Board as to the slate of candidates for membership on the Board to be presented to the stockholders for consideration at the Company’s Annual Meeting of stockholders.

The Nominating Committee considers many factors when evaluating candidates for nomination to the Board, with the goal of fostering a Board comprised of directors with a variety of experience and backgrounds. The Committee is authorized to retain expert advice from third parties to the extent it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time, but did not retain any third party for such purposes during fiscal 2012. We have no formal policy regarding board diversity, nor do we maintain any specific minimum qualification for director candidates. Our priority in selection of Board members is identification of members who will further the interests of our stockholders through their management experience, financial expertise, knowledge of our business and the gaming industry, understanding of the competitive landscape, familiarity with our targeted markets and experience with the regulatory framework to which we are subject. Important factors that will be considered as part of the Nominating Committee’s evaluation include (without limitation) whether the proposed member has the attributes and skills to make him or her suitable to serve as our director, in light of our highly regulated casino and hotel business, our complex operations and large number of employees.

Regulatory Compliance Committee. The Board has also established a Regulatory Compliance Committee. From January 1, 2012 through May 22, 2012, the Regulatory Compliance Committee was comprised of Yvette E. Landau, Michael Duggan and Benjamin C. Duster IV. From May 22, 2012 through November 8, 2012, the Regulatory Compliance Committee was comprised of Darrell Burks, Yvette E. Landau and Michael Duggan.

The duties of the Regulatory Compliance Committee are fully set forth in the charter adopted by that committee, a copy of which is available on the “investor info” page of our website at www.greektowncasino.com. The Regulatory Compliance Committee met four times during fiscal 2012.

Shareholder Communication. The Company does not have a formal procedure for stockholder communication with its Board. The Company welcomes any informal or formal correspondence and has determined that a formal procedure is not necessary. Stockholders who wish to contact the Board, a committee of the Board or an individual director should send their correspondence to Greektown Superholdings, Inc., 555 East Lafayette, Detroit, Michigan 48226, Attention: Board of Directors. Any such communication should specify the applicable addressee or addressees to be contacted, as well as the general topic of the communication. The Company will initially receive and process a communication before forwarding it to the addressee or addressees. The Company generally will not forward a stockholder communication to its directors if it determines that such communication is primarily commercial in nature or is abusive, threatening or otherwise inappropriate.

Code of Ethics. We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to the Company’s directors, as well as senior executive management and employees engaged in finance, accounting, information technology, surveillance, public reporting, compliance, and internal auditing, which meets the requirements of a “code of ethics” as defined in Item 406 of Regulation S-K, and we maintain procedures for the confidential and anonymous submission by employees of complaints regarding our accounting, internal accounting controls, auditing matters and other issues. A copy of our code of ethics is available on the “investor info” page of our website at www.greektowncasino.com. The Company will disclose on its website any amendment to, or wavier from, a provision of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and that relates to any element of such code enumerated in item 406(b) of Regulation S-K.

Board Leadership Structure. We recognize that different board leadership structures may be appropriate for companies in different situations and believe that no one structure is suitable for all companies. The roles and responsibilities of the Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer are as follows:

The Chairman has the responsibility to: (1) coordinate with the Chief Executive Officer in establishing the agenda for the Annual Meeting of stockholders as well as the agenda for Board meetings; (2) provide strategic oversight; (3) provide management with direction and input regarding Board priorities, mandates and suggestions; and (4) perform such other functions as the directors may designate from time to time. Mr. Hendrix acts as Chairman.

Our Chief Executive Officer has authority regarding day to day operations of the Company, oversight over all other officers of the Company and responsibility for executing strategies approved by the Board. The Chief Executive Officer reports to the Board. Michael Puggi serves as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

The Board has reviewed the Company’s current Board leadership structure in light of the composition of the Board, the Company’s size, the nature of the Company’s business, the regulatory framework under which the Company operates, the Company’s stockholder base and other relevant factors, and has determined that this Board leadership structure is appropriate for the Company. The Board will continue to evaluate whether the current leadership structure continues to be optimal for the Company and its stockholders.

The Board is responsible for overseeing the overall risk management process at the Company. Responsibility for managing risk rests with executive management while the Board participates in the oversight of the process. The oversight responsibility of the Board is expected to be enabled by management reporting processes designed to provide visibility to the Board about the identification, assessment, and management of critical risks. These areas of focus include strategic, operational, financial and reporting, succession and compensation, compliance, and other risks.

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us during or with respect to fiscal 2012, or written representations that no Forms 5 were required, we believe that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, other than the eight reports identified in the following sentence, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us during or with respect to fiscal 2012, each of Darrell Burks, Charles Moore, Glen Tomaszewski, Freman Hendrix, Richard Vitali and Standard General L.P. (along with Nicholas Singer and Soohyung Kim as additional reporting persons) filed one Section 16(a) report late and James A. Barrett filed two Section 16(a) reports late.

Except as disclosed below, none of the following persons has any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction to which we are a party since our incorporation or in any proposed transaction to which we are proposed to be a party:

(A)	Any of our directors or officers;

The Company has entered into the following transactions with related persons since January 1, 2012:

On April 8, 2013, Athens entered into a Stockholders Agreement with the Company, which provides for, among other things, the provisions summarized below:

●

The Stockholders Agreement provides that from the date that Athens acquires control of the Company until the later to occur of (i) December 31, 2013 and (ii) six months after Athens has acquired control of the Company, Athens will grant all non-Athens stockholders of the Company at least two opportunities for liquidity at $90 per share on an unconverted basis.

●

The two opportunities for liquidity may be provided by any means, including by merger or otherwise, so long as the economic result is the same. If effected through a merger, Athens must permit any non-Athens stockholders the right to elect to receive either cash or securities in the surviving entity.

●

In order to participate in any liquidity event under the Stockholders Agreement, Standard General Fund L.P. and certain affiliated funds and Brigade Leveraged Capital Structures Fund Ltd. must first execute an Investor Rights Agreement whereby each will:

provide a release of all existing claims against Athens and its affiliates and the Company and its affiliates; and

in addition to the liquidity rights provided by the Stockholders Agreement, receive a right to put its shares to Athens at $90 per share on an unconverted basis until the later to occur of (i) December 31, 2013 and (ii) six months after Athens has acquired control of the Company.

●

Minority Director Representation. The Stockholders Agreement provides that there must be at least two independent directors on the Board of Directors, one of which shall be a representative of then-current non-Athens stockholders (“Minority Independent Director”) until the time that Athens has acquired 90% of each class of Company securities, at which time Athens is obligated to cause the Company to effect a short-form merger under Delaware law.

●

Minority Independent Director Consent Rights. One of the Minority Independent Directors will be tasked with protecting the non-Athens stockholders through the exercise of certain consent rights over the following actions:

the Company’s entry into certain related-party transactions;

changes to the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ organizational documents which changes would disproportionately and adversely affect the non-Athens stockholders of the Company; and

issuances of Company securities in connection with any joint venture or strategic partnership entered into by the Company.

Tag-Along and Preemptive Rights:

●

Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, all non-Athens stockholders will be granted;

●

“tag-along” rights on certain sales of Company securities by Athens; and

●

preemptive rights over certain equity issuances by the Company and debt issuances by the Company to Athens or its affiliates.

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Registration:

Athens has also agreed to cause the Company to continue as a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission registrant unless and until Athens effects a short-form merger, except with the prior approval of the Minority Independent Director.

●

The Stockholders Agreement terminates upon the earliest to occur of:

Athens and the Company effectuating a short-form merger;

the consummation of a sale or transfer of Company securities whereby neither Athens nor any of its affiliates beneficially owns a majority of Company securities; and

the time when all Company securities are owned by Athens and/or its affiliates.
