Elray Gaming Positions Itself for Potential Changes in U.S. Gaming Laws, Establishes U.S. Office

   Elray Resources, Inc (OTCBB: ELRA) has announced the establishment of a U.S. office for its online gaming division, Elray Gaming, in preparation for potential changes to U.S. gaming laws.

The Company has opened corporate offices in New York City in order to meet operational requirements put forth by lawmakers in pending state and federal legislation. Under the proposed bills, internet-enabled gaming operations must adhere to strict rules including locally based operations and technology that allows for IP address restrictions and user age verification.

Brian Goodman, the CEO of Elray Resources, commented, "With the establishment of a New York office, we feel we are fully compliant with all pending legislation changes allowing for potential entry into the U.S. online gaming market. Our technology already meets the state and federal standards proposed and the opening of our New York office is the final step."

The Company understands the importance of developing a strong communication line to its shareholders. Thus, the company has established a corporate website www.elraygaming.com to reflect the new operations.
