In November 2013, the Authority completed a series of refinancing transactions relating to its Prior Bank Credit Facilities and 2009 and 2012 Second Lien Senior Secured Notes, including the repayment and termination of the Prior Bank Credit Facilities and the repurchase or redemption of the 2009 and 2012 Second Lien Senior Secured Notes with proceeds from new Senior Secured Credit Facilities (all further discussed below).
The Authority incurred approximately $61.1 million in costs in connection with these refinancing transactions, consisting primarily of consulting, legal and tender and consent fees. Previously deferred debt issuance costs and debt discounts totaling $22.4 million, as well as $39.9 million in new transaction costs were expensed and recorded as a loss on early extinguishment of debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. New debt issuance costs totaling $11.5 million were capitalized and included in other assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014 and will be amortized over the term of the related debt. The remaining $9.7 million in new costs was reflected as debt discount and included in long-term debt, net of current portion, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014 and will be amortized over the term of the related debt.
Prior Bank Credit Facilities
First Lien, First Out Credit Facility
In March 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 "Prior Bank Credit Facility"). In November 2013, the Authority repaid and terminated the Prior Bank Credit Facility with proceeds from new Senior Secured Credit Facilities (further discussed below). As of September 30, 2013, accrued interest, including commitment fees, on the Prior Bank Credit Facility was $61,000.
First Lien, Second Out Term Loan Facility
In March 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 "Prior Term Loan Facility" and, together with the Prior Bank Credit Facility, the "Prior Bank Credit Facilities"). In November 2013, the Authority repaid and terminated the Prior Term Loan Facility with proceeds from new Senior Secured Credit Facilities (further discussed below). As of September 30, 2013, accrued interest on the Prior Term Loan Facility was $1.1 million.
Senior Secured Credit Facilities
In November 2013, the Authority entered into a loan agreement among the Authority, the Tribe, the Guarantors as defined below, RBS Citizens, N.A. as Administrative and Collateral Agent and the other lenders and financial institutions party thereto, providing for $955.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured credit facilities (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”), comprised of a $100.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”), a $125.0 million senior secured term loan A facility (the “Term Loan A Facility”) and a $730.0 million senior secured term loan B facility (the “Term Loan B Facility"). The Senior Secured Credit Facilities mature on June 15, 2018, subject to extension based on the satisfaction of certain conditions to November 19, 2018 (in the case of the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A Facility) and November 19, 2019 (in the case of the Term Loan B Facility).
The Term Loan A Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 5.0% of the original principal amount for the first year after the closing date, 7.5% of the original principal amount for the second year after the closing date and 10.0% of the original principal amount in each year thereafter, with the balance payable on the maturity date of the Term Loan A Facility. The Term Loan B Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1.0% of the original principal amount. Amortization of the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility begins with the first full fiscal quarter after the closing date. The proceeds from the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility, together with a drawing under the Revolving Facility, were used to satisfy in full all amounts due under the Authority's Prior Bank Credit Facilities, to repurchase or redeem all of the Authority's outstanding 2009 and 2012 Second Lien Senior Secured Notes and to otherwise satisfy and discharge the obligations in respect of such notes and to pay related fees and expenses. The Revolving Facility will otherwise be available for general corporate purposes.
As of June 30, 2014, amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility, Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility totaled $20.0 million, $121.9 million and $726.4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility totaled $2.9 million, of which no amount was drawn. Inclusive of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing availability under the Revolving Facility, and after taking into account restrictive financial covenant requirements, the Authority had approximately $76.2 million of borrowing capacity under its Revolving Facility and Line of Credit as of June 30, 2014.
Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities incur interest as follows: (i) for base rate loans under the Revolving Facility and Term Loan A Facility, a base rate equal to the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points and (c) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (the highest of (a), (b) and (c), the “base rate”), plus a leverage-based margin of 250 to 350 basis points; (ii) for Eurodollar rate loans under the Revolving Facility and Term Loan A Facility, the applicable LIBOR rate plus a leverage-based margin of 350 to 450 basis points; (iii) for base rate loans under the Term Loan B Facility, the base rate (subject to a 2.0% floor) plus 350 basis points; and (iv) for Eurodollar rate loans under the Term Loan B Facility, the applicable LIBOR rate (subject to a 1.0% floor) plus 450 basis points. The Authority also is required to pay a leverage-based commitment fee of between 37.5 and 50 basis points for unused commitments under the Revolving Facility. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly in arrears. Interest on Eurodollar rate loans of three months or less is payable at the end of each applicable interest period and for Eurodollar rate loans of more than three months, interest is payable at intervals of three months duration after the beginning of such interest period.
As of June 30, 2014, the $20.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Facility was comprised of a $20.0 million Eurodollar rate loan based on a Eurodollar rate of 0.16% plus 450 basis points. The commitment fee was 0.50% as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, the $121.9 million outstanding under the Term Loan A Facility was based on a Eurodollar rate of 0.23% plus 450 basis points. As of June 30, 2014, the $726.4 million outstanding under the Term Loan B Facility was based on the Eurodollar rate floor of 1.0% plus 450 basis points. As of June 30, 2014, accrued interest, including commitment fees, on the Senior Secured Credit Facilities was $1.7 million.
The Authority's obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities 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 Senior Secured Credit Facilities are 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 Senior Secured Credit Facilities as they and future guarantor subsidiaries acquire them.
The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain customary covenants applicable to the Authority and its restricted subsidiaries, including 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 Senior Secured Credit Facilities include financial maintenance covenants pertaining to total leverage, secured leverage and minimum fixed charge coverage.
As of June 30, 2014, the Authority and the Tribe were in compliance with all respective covenant requirements under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.
The Authority continues to monitor revenues and expenditures to ensure continued compliance with its financial covenant requirements under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. While the Authority anticipates that it will remain in compliance with all covenant requirements under its Senior Secured Credit Facilities for all periods prior to maturity, it may need to increase revenues or offset any future declines in revenues by implementing additional cost saving and other initiatives to ensure 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 Senior Secured 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 Senior Secured 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 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes also are effectively subordinated to any indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of the Authority’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes. The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes rank equally in right of payment with the Authority’s other unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness, including trade payables and the senior portion of the Authority’s payment obligations under its Relinquishment Agreement. The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors.
The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes indenture contains certain covenants that, subject to certain significant exceptions, limit, among other things, the Authority’s and Guarantors’ ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends or distributions, make certain investments, create liens on assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with another company or transfer and sell assets. The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes indenture includes customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to pay certain other indebtedness, the occurrence of which is caused by a failure to pay principal, premium or interest or results in the acceleration of such indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency and certain judgment defaults.

The 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes mature on September 15, 2018. The Authority may redeem the 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes, in whole or in part, at any time, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest. If a change of control of the Authority occurs, the Authority must offer to repurchase the 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest.

Interest on the 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on March 15th and September 15th. The initial interest payment on the 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes was payable entirely in cash. For any subsequent interest payment period through March 15, 2018, the Authority may, at its option, elect to pay interest on the 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes either entirely in cash or by paying up to 2% in 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes (“PIK Interest”). If the Authority elects to pay PIK Interest, such election will increase the principal amount of the 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes in an amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest for the applicable interest payment period to holders of 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes on the relevant record date.
In August 2013, the Authority repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $69.0 million 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes.

The 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes and guarantees have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
The Authority's senior subordinated notes are uncollateralized general obligations of the Authority and are subordinated to borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes. The senior subordinated notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors.
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, subject to certain exceptions, limitations on the Authority's and the Guarantors' ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or distributions, make certain investments, create liens on assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with another company, transfer or sell assets or impair assets constituting collateral.
As of June 30, 2014, 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.
Line of Credit
In November 2013, in connection with the new Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Authority entered into a new $16.5 million revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit is coterminous with the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Pursuant to provisions of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, under certain circumstances, the Line of Credit may be converted into loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Under the Line of Credit, each advance accrues interest on the basis of a one-month LIBOR Rate plus an applicable margin based on the Authority's total leverage ratio, as each term is defined under the Line of Credit. As of June 30, 2014, no amount was drawn on the Line of Credit. Borrowings under the Line of Credit are uncollateralized obligations. The Line of Credit contains negative covenants and financial maintenance covenants that are substantially the same as those contained in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. As of June 30, 2014, the Authority was in compliance with all covenant requirements under the Line of Credit. As of June 30, 2014, accrued interest on the Line of Credit was $13,000.
