This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed by the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority (the “Authority”) to supplement the Authority’s Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Prior Report”), dated August 28, 2005 and filed on August 30, 2005. The Prior Report announced the results of the election for the Mohegan Tribal Council (the governing body of the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut (the “Tribe”)).

 

The Authority is governed by a nine-member Management Board consisting of the nine members of the Mohegan Tribal Council. Any change in the composition of the Mohegan Tribal Council results in a corresponding change in the Authority’s Management Board.

 

The Authority is filing this 8-K/A to announce that on October 3, 2005 the new Chairman and other officers of the Tribal Council were determined by the newly elected council members. Bruce S. Bozsum will serve as Chairman, Lynn Malerba will serve as Vice-Chairwoman, William Quidgeon Jr. will serve as Treasurer, Allison Johnson will serve as Recording Secretary and Roberta Harris-Payne will serve as Corresponding Secretary. The terms of office correspond to each officer’s term as a member of the Mohegan Tribal Council (as detailed in the Prior Report), pursuant to the Tribe’s Constitution.

 

In addition, on October 5, 2005 the members of the Authority’s Audit Committee were determined by the new Management Board. Mark F. Brown, Mark Hamilton, Roberta Harris-Payne, Allison Johnson and William Quidgeon Jr. will each serve as members of the Audit Committee for terms corresponding to their terms as members of the Management Board.

 

Information concerning material related transactions between the new Tribal Council members and the Authority was unavailable at the date of this filing.
