Bank Credit Facilities

First Lien, First Out Credit Facility

On March 6, 2012, the Authority entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Bank Credit Facility providing for a $400.0 million term loan and a revolving loan with letter of credit and borrowing capacity of up to $75.0 million from a syndicate of financial institutions and commercial banks, with Bank of America, N.A. serving as Administrative Agent (the "Bank Credit Facility"). Principal outstanding on the term loan under the Bank Credit Facility is to be repaid at a rate of $1.0 million per quarter. The Bank Credit Facility matures on March 31, 2015, upon which date all outstanding balances are payable in full. As of June 30, 2013, there were $394.0 million in term loans and no revolving loans outstanding under the Bank Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2013, letters of credit issued under the Bank Credit Facility totaled $3.4 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, the Authority had approximately $71.6 million of borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Facility as of June 30, 2013.
Borrowings under the Bank Credit Facility incur interest as follows: (i) for base rate revolving loans, base rate plus an applicable margin based on a leverage-based pricing grid between 2.25% and 3.25%; (ii) for Eurodollar rate revolving loans, the applicable LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin based on a leverage-based pricing grid between 3.50% and 4.50%; (iii) for base rate term loans, base rate plus an applicable margin equal to 3.25%; and (iv) for Eurodollar rate term loans, the applicable LIBOR rate plus 4.50%. For Eurodollar rate term loans, LIBOR is subject to a 1.0% floor. There also is a fee of between 0.25% and 0.50%, based on a leverage-based pricing grid, charged on unused revolving commitments. Interest on Eurodollar rate loans is payable at the end of each applicable interest period for periods of three months or less and for loans of more than three months, each March, June, September or December that occurs after the beginning of such interest period. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly in arrears. As of June 30, 2013, the $394.0 million in term loans outstanding were based on the Eurodollar rate floor of 1.0% plus an applicable margin of 4.50%. The applicable margin for commitment fees was 0.50% as of June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, accrued interest, including commitment fees, on the Bank Credit Facility was $217,000 and $211,000, respectively.

The Authority's obligations under the Bank Credit Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Pocono Downs Subsidiaries, MBC, Mohegan Golf, Mohegan Ventures-NW, MVW, WTG and MTGA Gaming (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The Bank Credit Facility is collateralized by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Authority's property and assets and those of the Guarantors (other than MBC), 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 and the Guarantors, other than MBC, are collectively referred to herein as the “Grantors”). The Grantors also are required to pledge additional assets as collateral for the Bank Credit Facility as they and future guarantor subsidiaries acquire them. The liens and security interests granted by the Grantors as security for the Authority's obligations under the Bank Credit Facility are senior in priority to the liens on the same collateral securing the Term Loan Facility (as defined below) and the 2009 Second Lien Notes, 2012 Second Lien Notes and 2012 Third Lien Notes (each as defined below and, collectively, the “Secured Notes”). The collateral securing the Bank Credit Facility constitutes substantially all of the Grantors' property and assets that secure the Term Loan Facility and the Secured Notes, but excludes certain excluded assets as defined in the Bank Credit Facility.

The Bank Credit Facility contains negative covenants applicable to the Authority and the Guarantors, including negative covenants governing incurrence of indebtedness, incurrence of liens, payment of dividends and other distributions, investments, asset sales, affiliate transactions, mergers or consolidations and capital expenditures. Additionally, the Bank Credit Facility includes financial maintenance covenants pertaining to total leverage, senior leverage and minimum fixed charge coverage.
As of June 30, 2013, the Authority and the Tribe were in compliance with all respective covenant requirements under the Bank Credit Facility.

First Lien, Second Out Term Loan Facility

On March 6, 2012, the Authority entered into a loan agreement providing for a $225.0 million first lien, second out term loan with Wells Fargo Gaming Capital, LLC serving as Administrative Agent (the "Term Loan Facility"). The Term Loan Facility was issued at a price of 98.0% of par, for an initial yield of approximately 9.6% per annum. The Term Loan Facility has no mandatory amortization and is payable in full on March 31, 2016.

Loans under the Term Loan Facility incur interest as follows: (i) for base rate loans, base rate plus 6.50% per annum and (ii) for Eurodollar rate loans, LIBOR plus 7.50% per annum. In all cases, LIBOR is subject to a 1.50% floor. Interest on Eurodollar rate loans is payable at the end of each applicable interest period or every quarter in arrears, if an interest period exceeds three months. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly in arrears. As of June 30, 2013, the Authority had a $225.0 million Eurodollar rate loan outstanding, which was based on the Eurodollar rate floor of 1.50% plus an applicable margin of 7.50%. As of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, accrued interest on the Term Loan Facility was $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

The Term Loan Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Guarantors. The liens and security interests granted by the Grantors as security for the Authority's obligations under the Term Loan Facility are senior in priority to the liens on the same collateral securing any of the Secured Notes. The collateral securing the Term Loan Facility constitutes substantially all of the Grantors' property and assets that secure the Bank Credit Facility and the Secured Notes, but excludes certain excluded assets as defined in the Term Loan Facility.

The Term Loan Facility contains negative covenants and financial maintenance covenants that are substantially the same as those contained in the Bank Credit Facility. The Term Loan Facility also includes a separate first lien leverage ratio covenant.
As of June 30, 2013, the Authority and the Tribe were in compliance with all respective covenant requirements under the Term Loan Facility.

The Authority continues to monitor revenues and expenditures to ensure continued compliance with its financial covenant requirements under both the Bank Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility. While the Authority anticipates that it will remain in compliance with all covenant requirements under its bank credit facilities for all periods prior to maturity, it may need to increase revenues or offset any future declines in revenues by implementing further cost containment and other initiatives in order to maintain compliance with these financial covenant requirements. If the Authority is unable to satisfy its financial covenant requirements, it would need to obtain waivers or consents under the bank credit facilities; however, the Authority can provide no assurance that it would be able to obtain such waivers or consents. If the Authority is unable to obtain such waivers or consents, it would be in default under its bank credit facilities, which may result in cross-defaults under its other outstanding indebtedness and allow its lenders and creditors to exercise their rights and remedies as defined under their respective agreements, including their right to accelerate the repayment of the Authority's outstanding indebtedness. If such acceleration were to occur, the Authority can provide no assurance that it would be able to obtain the financing necessary to repay such accelerated indebtedness.

The Downs Lodging Credit Facility matures on July 12, 2016 and accrues interest at an annual rate of 13.0%. Under the terms of the Downs Lodging Credit Facility, accrued interest of 10.0% is payable monthly in cash during the term of the loan, with the remaining 3.0% due at maturity. In addition, a 3.0% exit fee is payable upon repayment of the loan principal. The Downs Lodging Credit Facility is a senior secured obligation of Downs Lodging, collateralized by all existing and future assets of Downs Lodging. The Downs Lodging Credit Facility subjects Downs Lodging to certain covenant requirements customarily found in loan agreements for similar transactions. As of June 30, 2013, Downs Lodging was in compliance with all covenant requirements under the Downs Lodging Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, accrued interest on the Downs Lodging Credit Facility was $375,000.
