Bank Credit Facility

In December 2008, the Authority entered into a Third Amended and Restated Bank Credit Facility. The Bank Credit Facility was amended in October 2009. As amended, the Bank Credit Facility provides for a revolving loan and letter of credit borrowing capacity of up to $675.0 million from a syndicate of financial institutions and commercial banks, with Bank of America, N.A., serving as Administrative Agent. The Bank Credit Facility has no mandatory amortization provision and is payable in full on March 9, 2012. As of December 31, 2011, $505.0 million was drawn on the Bank Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2011, letters of credit issued under the Bank Credit Facility totaled $3.8 million, of which no amount was drawn. Inclusive of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing availability under the Bank Credit Facility, and after taking into account restrictive financial covenant requirements under the Bank Credit Facility and the Authority's Line of Credit and note indentures, the Authority had approximately $62.1 million of borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Facility as of December 31, 2011. The Authority plans to refinance or replace the Bank Credit Facility at or prior to maturity (refer to Note 2).

Under the Bank Credit Facility, at the Authority's option, each advance of loan proceeds accrues interest on the basis of a Base Rate or on the basis of a one-month, two-month, three-month, six-month or twelve-month Eurodollar Rate, plus in either case, an Applicable Rate based on the Authority's total leverage ratio, as each term is defined under the Bank Credit Facility. The Authority also pays commitment fees for the unused portion of borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Facility on a quarterly basis equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Applicable Rate for commitment fees by the average daily unused borrowing capacity for that calendar quarter. The Applicable Rate for Base Rate loans is between 1.25% and 2.75%. The Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Rate loans is between 2.50% and 4.00%. The Applicable Rate for commitment fees is between 0.20% and 0.50%. The Base Rate is the higher of Bank of America's announced Prime Rate, the Eurodollar Rate for one-month contracts plus 1.25% or the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. Interest on Base Rate loans is payable quarterly in arrears. Interest on Eurodollar Rate loans is payable at the end of each applicable interest period or quarterly in arrears, if earlier. As of December 31, 2011, the Authority had $7.0 million in Base Rate loans and $498.0 million in Eurodollar Rate loans outstanding. The Base Rate loans outstanding at December 31, 2011 were based on Bank of America's Prime Rate of 3.25% plus an Applicable Rate of 2.25%. The Eurodollar Rate loans outstanding at December 31, 2011 were based on one-month Eurodollar Rates ranging from 0.27% to 0.30% plus an Applicable Rate of 3.50%. The Applicable Rate for commitment fees was 0.50% as of December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, accrued interest, including commitment fees, on the Bank Credit Facility was $932,000 and $1.0 million, respectively.

The Bank Credit Facility is collateralized by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Authority's assets, including the assets that comprise Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs and a leasehold mortgage on the land and improvements that comprise Mohegan Sun. The Authority also is required to pledge additional assets as collateral for the Bank Credit Facility as it or its existing and future guarantor subsidiaries acquire them. The Authority's obligations under the Bank Credit Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Pennsylvania Entities, MBC, Mohegan Golf, MCV-PA, Mohegan Ventures-NW, MVW, WTG and MTGA Gaming. The Bank Credit Facility includes non-financial covenant requirements of the types customarily found in loan agreements for similar transactions. The Bank Credit Facility also subjects the Authority to a number of restrictive financial covenant requirements. These financial covenant requirements include, among other things, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum total leverage and senior leverage ratios and maximum capital expenditures and investments.

As of December 31, 2011, the Authority and the Tribe were in compliance with all respective covenant requirements under the Bank Credit Facility.

The senior subordinated notes rank equally in right of payment with each other and Junior Relinquishment Payment obligations under the Relinquishment Agreement that are then due and owing.

Refer to Note 9 for condensed consolidating financial information of the Authority and its guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor entities.

The senior and senior subordinated note indentures contain certain non-financial and financial covenant requirements with which the Authority and the Tribe must comply. The non-financial covenant requirements include, among other things, reporting obligations, compliance with laws and regulations, maintenance of licenses and insurances and continued existence of the Authority. The financial covenant requirements include, among other things, limitations on the Authority's ability to make restricted payments, as defined under the note indentures, and incur additional indebtedness. Under these financial covenant requirements, the Authority is generally able to make restricted payments, including distributions to the Tribe, and incur additional indebtedness that otherwise may be restricted, provided the Authority's pro forma fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 2.0 to 1.0. If the Authority's pro forma fixed charge coverage ratio was to fall below 2.0 to 1.0, its ability to make restricted payments and incur additional indebtedness would be limited and subject to other applicable exceptions under the note indentures. Additionally, while the Authority may continue to borrow under the Bank Credit Facility pursuant to exceptions contained in the note indentures, its ability to incur other additional indebtedness to raise capital also would be limited. Further, if the Authority's pro forma fixed charge coverage ratio was to fall below 2.0 to 1.0, the Authority would be unable to refinance or replace its outstanding subordinated indebtedness with senior indebtedness without waivers or consents from certain of its creditors, thus limiting the options available to the Authority to refinance or replace its outstanding indebtedness. In such event, the Authority can provide no assurance that it would be able to obtain such waivers or consents or that it would be able to refinance or replace its outstanding indebtedness or that financing options available, if any, would be on favorable or acceptable terms. As of December 31, 2011, the Authority's fixed charge coverage ratio was above 2.0 to 1.0.

As of December 31, 2011, the Authority and the Tribe were in compliance with all respective covenant requirements under the senior and senior subordinated note indentures.

The Authority or its affiliates may, from time to time, seek to purchase or otherwise retire outstanding indebtedness for cash in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Any such transaction will depend on prevailing market conditions and the Authority's liquidity and covenant requirement restrictions, among other factors.

As of December 31, 2011, the Authority had a $16.5 million revolving loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit matures on March 9, 2012.
