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, whose members also comprise the Mohegan Tribal Council (the “Tribal Council”), the governing body of the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut (the “Tribe”). Any change in the composition of the 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 August 30, 2015, the Tribe announced the results of the general election wherein four of the nine seats on the Tribal Council were chosen pursuant to staggered term provisions in the Tribe’s Constitution. Cheryl A. Todd, Thayne D. Hutchins, Jr., Mark F. Brown and Joseph W. Smith were elected as members of the Tribal Council. Each of these elected Tribal Council members will serve four-year terms, commencing October 5, 2015.

Cheryl A. Todd, Thayne D. Hutchins, Jr. and Mark F. Brown are currently members of the Tribal Council. Joseph W. Smith will succeed Mark M. Sperry, who did not seek re-election and will remain as a member of the Tribal Council until his successor is seated on October 5, 2015. Information concerning material related transactions between the newly elected Tribal Council members and the Authority, as well as information regarding committees of the Management Board to which these newly elected Tribal Council members will be named after they are seated, was unavailable at the date of this filing.
