the provisions of this Warrant, up to 50,000 shares of fully paid, validly issued and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock of the Company (Common Stock), par value $.001 per share, at a price per
share equal to $1.00 (the Exercise Price), which exercise may take place at any time or from time
to time on or before 5:00 p.m., eastern standard time, on the date that is five (5) years from the
date hereof or, if such date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or bank holiday, the next date that is
not a Saturday, Sunday, or bank holiday (the Expiration Date).
This Warrant comprises a portion of a Unit being sold by the Company pursuant to the Private
Placement Memorandum dated March 1, 2010 (the Memorandum). Unless otherwise defined herein, terms
defined in this Warrant shall have the meaning as set forth in the Memorandum. The Exercise Price
is $1.00 per share. The number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon the exercise of this
Warrant may be adjusted from time to time as hereinafter set forth. The shares of

Common Stock deliverable upon such exercise, and as adjusted from time to time, are hereinafter
sometimes referred to as Warrant Shares.
A EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
(1) This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time or from time to time during the
Exercise Period; provided, however, that if such day is a day on which banking institutions in the
State of Maryland are authorized by law to close, then on the next succeeding day which shall not
be such a day. This Warrant may be exercised by presentation and surrender hereof to the Company
at its principal office with the Purchase Form annexed hereto duly executed and accompanied by
payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in such form. As soon as
practicable after each such exercise of the warrant and contingent on receipt of good and available
funds, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate for the Warrant Shares
issuable upon such exercise, registered in the name of the Holder. If this Warrant should be
exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, execute
and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the balance of the
Warrant Shares. Upon issuance of the Warrant Shares, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of
record of the shares of Common Stock, notwithstanding that certificates representing such shares of
Common Stock shall not then have been physically delivered to the Holder.
B. REDEMPTION OF WARRANT.
(1) This Warrant may be redeemed, at the option of the Company, at any time prior to the Expiration
Date, upon the notice referred to in Section (B)(2), at the price of $.001 per Warrant Share
(Redemption Price), provided that the last sales price of the Common Stock has been at least
$2.50 per share, on each of ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the third business day
prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given (Measurement Period). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company may not exercise its redemption rights unless during the Measurement
Period and from the end of the Measurement Period through the redemption date, the Company has an
effective registration statement with a current prospectus on file with the SEC pursuant to which
the Warrant Shares may be sold.
(2) In the event the Company shall elect to redeem the Warrant, the Company shall fix a date for
the redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given by the Company to the Holder of the Warrant not
less than 30 calendar days prior to the
2
date fixed for redemption (the Redemption Date). The address for such communication shall be the
address set forth in the Subscription Agreement or such other address as the Holder shall have
specified most recently by written notice.
(3) The Warrant may be exercised in accordance with Section (A) at any time after notice of
redemption shall have been given by the Company pursuant to Section (B)(2) hereof and prior to the
time and date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, the Holder shall have no
further rights except to receive, upon surrender of the Warrant, the Redemption Price.
C. FRACTIONAL SHARES.
No fractional shares or script representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of
this Warrant. The number of Warrant Shares due the Holder will be rounded up or down to the
nearest share.
D. EXCHANGE OR LOSS OF WARRANT.
This Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon presentation and
surrender hereof to the Company for other warrants of different denominations entitling the Holder
thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
hereunder. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal place of business, duly
executed, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the
Holder named in such instrument and this Warrant shall be cancelled. This Warrant may be divided
or combined with other warrants which carry the same rights upon presentation hereof at the
principal office of the Company, together with a written notice signed by the Holder hereof
specifying the denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued. The term Warrant as used
herein includes any Warrants into which this Warrant may be divided or exchanged. Upon receipt by
the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
Warrant, and in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of reasonably satisfactory indemnification,
or upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will execute and
deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.
E. RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER.
3
The Holder of this Warrant is not entitled to any rights of a shareholder in the Company, either at
law or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in the Warrant and are
not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein.
F. RESTRICTED STOCK
THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OR EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE
UPON CONVERSION OR EXERCISE HEREOF MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN
THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT HERETO OR THERETO UNDER SAID ACT OR
AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO DIAMONDHEAD CASINO CORPORATION THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
G. OFFICERS CERTIFICATE.

provisions, the Company shall file at its principal place of business, a certificate, signed by the
President of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail, the facts requiring an adjustment,
the amount of the adjustment made, and the manner of computing the adjustment. Each such
certificate shall be made available to a Holder of a Warrant upon request, during normal business
hours.
I. NONCIRCUMVENTION; RESERVATION OF SHARES.
The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of
Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will
at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may
be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and

outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and
unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, the
maximum number of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of
this Warrant then outstanding.
