Item 8.01.
Other Events.

As a result of the potential impact of Hurricane Irene, Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa closed at 6 p.m. Eastern on Friday, August 26th and reopened at 12:00 p.m. Eastern on Monday, August 29th. There was minimal property damage to Borgata as a result of Hurricane Irene, the amount of which is currently estimated to be less than the related casualty insurance deductible; thus, no casualty insurance claim is expected to be filed.

The press releases issued by Borgata announcing the temporary closure and the reopening are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 and are incorporated herein by reference.
