Section 5 – Corporate Governance and Management

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

The Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority (the “Authority”) is governed by a nine-member Management Board consisting of the nine members of the Mohegan Tribal Council (the governing body of the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut (the “Tribe”)). Any change in the composition of the Mohegan Tribal Council results in a corresponding change in the Authority’s Management Board. The registered voters of the Tribe elect all members of the Tribal Council.

On March 5, 2007, the Tribe announced the results of a special election held on March 4, 2007 wherein Cheryl Todd was chosen to be a member of the Mohegan Tribal Council. Effective as of March 5, 2007, Ms. Todd assumed the seat previously held by Roland J. Harris and will serve out the remaining portion of Mr. Harris’s term, which expires in October 2007. Mr. Harris resigned from his position in the Tribal Council, and therefore the Management Board, on December 11, 2006 to accept a position as Senior Vice President of Project Management at the Authority.
