MOHEGAN TRIBAL GAMING AUTHORITY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION:
The Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut (the “Mohegan Tribe” or the “Tribe”) established the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority (the “Authority”) in July 1995 with the exclusive authority to conduct and regulate gaming activities for the Tribe on Tribal lands and the non-exclusive authority to conduct such activities elsewhere. The Tribe is a federally-recognized Indian tribe with an approximately 595-acre reservation situated in Southeastern Connecticut, adjacent to Uncasville, Connecticut. Under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, federally-recognized Indian tribes are permitted to conduct full-scale casino gaming operations on tribal lands, subject to, among other things, the negotiation of a compact with the affected state. The Tribe and the State of Connecticut entered into a compact (the “Mohegan Compact”), which was approved by the United States Secretary of the Interior. The Authority is primarily engaged in the ownership, operation and development of gaming facilities. In October 1996, the Authority opened Mohegan Sun, a gaming and entertainment complex situated on an approximately 185-acre site on the Tribe's reservation. The Authority is governed by a nine-member Management Board, whose members also comprise the Mohegan Tribal Council, the governing body of the Tribe. Any change in the composition of the Mohegan Tribal Council results in a corresponding change in the Authority's Management Board.
As of June 30, 2016, the following subsidiaries were wholly-owned by the Authority: Mohegan Basketball Club, LLC (“MBC”), Mohegan Golf, LLC (“Mohegan Golf”), Mohegan Lacrosse, LLC (“Mohegan Lacrosse”), Mohegan Commercial Ventures-PA, LLC (“MCV-PA”), Mohegan Ventures-Northwest, LLC (“Mohegan Ventures-NW”), Mohegan Ventures Wisconsin, LLC (“MVW”), MTGA Gaming, LLC (“MTGA Gaming”), Downs Lodging, LLC ("Downs Lodging") and Mohegan Gaming Advisors, LLC ("Mohegan Gaming Advisors").
MBC owns and operates the Connecticut Sun, a professional basketball team in the Women's National Basketball Association (the “WNBA”). MBC currently owns a 4.2% membership interest in WNBA, LLC.
Mohegan Golf owns and operates the Mohegan Sun Golf Club in Southeastern Connecticut.
Mohegan Lacrosse holds a 50% membership interest in New England Black Wolves, LLC (“NEBW”), which was formed with an unrelated third-party to own and operate the New England Black Wolves, a professional indoor lacrosse team in the National Lacrosse League.
MCV-PA holds a 0.01% general partnership interest in each of Downs Racing, L.P. (“Downs Racing”), Backside, L.P., Mill Creek Land, L.P. and Northeast Concessions, L.P. (collectively, along with MCV-PA, the “Pocono Subsidiaries”), while the Authority holds the remaining 99.99% limited partnership interest in each entity. Downs Racing owns and operates Mohegan Sun Pocono, a gaming and entertainment facility situated on an approximately 400-acre site in Plains Township, Pennsylvania, and several off-track wagering facilities located elsewhere in Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Pennsylvania Facilities”). The Authority views Mohegan Sun and the Pennsylvania Facilities as two separate operating segments.
Mohegan Ventures-NW and a subsidiary of the Tribe hold 49.15% and 10.85% membership interests in Salishan-Mohegan, LLC (“Salishan-Mohegan”), respectively. Salishan-Mohegan was formed with an unrelated third-party to participate in the development and management of a proposed casino to be owned by the federally-recognized Cowlitz Indian Tribe (the “Cowlitz Tribe”) and to be located on the Cowlitz reservation in Clark County, Washington (the “Cowlitz Project”). Salishan-Mohegan holds a 100% membership interest in Salishan-Mohegan Two, LLC, which was formed to acquire certain property related to the Cowlitz Project.
MVW holds a 100% membership interest in Wisconsin Tribal Gaming, LLC (“WTG”), which was formed to participate in the development of a proposed casino to be owned by the federally-recognized Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin (the “Menominee Tribe”) and to be located in Kenosha, Wisconsin (the “Menominee Project”).

The accompanying year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In management's opinion, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals and adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Authority's operating results for the interim period, have been included. In addition, certain amounts in the accompanying 2015 condensed consolidated financial statements and supplemental condensed consolidating financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2016 presentation.
The gaming market in the Northeastern United States is seasonal in nature, with peak gaming activities often occurring at Mohegan Sun and Mohegan Sun Pocono during the months of May through August. Accordingly, the Authority's operating results for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for other interim periods or an entire fiscal year.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Authority's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Authority and its majority and wholly-owned subsidiaries and entities. In accordance with authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) pertaining to consolidation of variable interest entities, the accounts of Salishan-Mohegan are consolidated into the accounts of Mohegan Ventures-NW, the accounts of Inspire Integrated Resort are consolidated into the accounts of Mohegan

(unaudited)
Gaming Advisors and the accounts of NEBW are consolidated into the accounts of Mohegan Lacrosse as Mohegan Ventures-NW, Mohegan Gaming Advisors and Mohegan Lacrosse are deemed to be the primary beneficiaries. In consolidation, all inter-company balances and transactions were eliminated.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of deposits that are contractually restricted as to their withdrawal or use. Restricted cash primarily includes cash held by Inspire Integrated Resort in connection with its pre-approval for a license to build an integrated resort at Incheon International Airport in South Korea. In February 2016, KCC Corporation and its affiliates contributed approximately $50.0 million to Inspire Integrated Resort for a 49.81% membership interest in Inspire Integrated Resort. In July 2016, an additional $50.0 million of cash, classified as cash and cash equivalents on the June 30, 2016 condensed consolidated balance sheet, was reclassified as restricted cash.
Long-Term Receivables
Long-term receivables consist primarily of receivables from affiliates and others.
Receivables from affiliates, which are included in receivables, net, and other assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, consist of reimbursable costs and expenses advanced by Salishan-Mohegan on behalf of the Cowlitz Tribe for the Cowlitz Project (refer to Note 6) and WTG on behalf of the Menominee Tribe for the Menominee Project.
The Salishan-Mohegan receivables are payable upon: (1) the related property being taken into trust by the United States Department of the Interior and (2) the receipt of necessary financing for the development of the proposed casino. In March 2015, the Cowlitz Project site was taken into trust by the United States Department of the Interior for the benefit of the Cowlitz Tribe. In addition, in December 2015, the Cowlitz Tribal Gaming Authority (the “CTGA”) obtained financing for the Cowlitz Project. The financing provided funding for construction of the Cowlitz Project and a partial repayment of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables. The Authority maintains a reserve for doubtful collection of the remaining Salishan-Mohegan receivables, which is based on the Authority's estimate of the probability that the receivables will be collected. The Authority assesses the reserve for doubtful collection of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables for adequacy on a quarterly basis. In connection with the financing for the Cowlitz Project, the Authority reduced the reserve for doubtful collection of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables. Future developments in the construction and opening of the proposed casino or other matters affecting the Cowlitz Project could affect the collectability of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables and the related reserve. The WTG receivables, which were fully reserved, were written-off following the expiration of a release and reimbursement agreement in December 2015.
Receivables from others, which are primarily included in other assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, consist of funds loaned to a third-party in connection with the Cowlitz Project and a loan to a tenant of Mohegan Sun.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value amounts presented below are reported to satisfy disclosure requirements pursuant to authoritative guidance issued by the FASB pertaining to disclosures about fair values of financial instruments and are not necessarily indicative of amounts that the Authority could realize in a current market transaction.
The Authority applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs utilized to measure fair value into three levels:
• | Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; |
• | Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and |
10
MOHEGAN TRIBAL GAMING AUTHORITY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
(unaudited)
• | Level 3 - Valuations based on models where the significant inputs are unobservable. The unobservable inputs reflect the Authority's estimates or assumptions that market participants would utilize in pricing such assets or liabilities. |
The Authority's assessment of the significance of a particular input requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, trade payables and promissory notes and certain credit facilities approximates fair value. The estimated fair value of the Authority's financing facilities and notes were as follows (in thousands):
June 30, 2016 | |||||||
Carrying Value | Fair Value | ||||||
Senior Secured Credit Facility - Revolving | $ | 19,000 | $ | 18,355 | |||
Senior Secured Credit Facility - Term Loan A | $ | 98,288 | $ | 97,938 | |||
Senior Secured Credit Facility - Term Loan B | $ | 765,495 | $ | 771,754 | |||
2013 9 3/4% Senior Unsecured Notes | $ | 578,273 | $ | 623,025 | |||
2015 Senior Unsecured Notes | $ | 97,986 | $ | 97,625 | |||
2012 11% Senior Subordinated Notes | $ | 99,217 | $ | 100,190 |
The estimated fair values of the Authority's financing facilities and notes were based on Level 2 inputs (quoted market prices or prices of similar instruments) on or about June 30, 2016.
Share Based Compensation
The Authority accounts for share based compensation for non-employees in accordance with authoritative guidance pertaining to share based payments. Share based compensation is measured at the measurement date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized over the requisite service period. Share based compensation is recognized as an operating expense and totaled $6.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016.
Foreign Currency
The Authority accounts for foreign currency translation in accordance with authoritative guidance pertaining to currency translation. The local currency is the functional currency for Inspire Integrated Resort. For local currency functional locations, assets and liabilities are translated at the end-of-period rates, while revenue and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the period. Equity is translated at historical rates and the resulting cumulative translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are credited or charged to other comprehensive income (loss). Other assets held overseas are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates. Gains or losses from foreign currency remeasurements are included in other income (expense), net.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and Comprehensive Income
As of June 30, 2016, accumulated other comprehensive income consisted solely of foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive income included net income attributable to the Authority and all other non-stockholder changes in equity for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2016.
Additional Cash Flow Information
On June 30, 2016, the bank that administers the Authority’s debt service payments for its Senior Secured Credit Facilities made a required principal payment on behalf of the Authority totaling $5.2 million, but did not accordingly debit the Authority’s bank account for the payment. As of June 30, 2016, the Authority reflected this transaction as a reduction to current portion of long-term debt and a corresponding increase to other current liabilities. On the following banking day, the bank withdrew the $5.2 million from the Authority’s bank account, resulting in a reduction to the Authority’s cash and cash equivalents and other current liabilities. Accordingly, the Authority classified the payment made by the bank as a non-cash financing outflow and the related amount owed to the bank as a non-cash financing inflow in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2016.
In addition, in connection with the financing for the Cowlitz Project, the Cowlitz Tribe repaid $6.0 million of principal outstanding under the 2012 Mohegan Tribe Minor's Trust Promissory Note on behalf of Salishan-Mohegan. Accordingly, the Authority classified this payment as a non-cash financing outflow and the related reduction to the Salishan-Mohegan receivables
11

as a non-cash investing inflow in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2016.
New Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update on revenue recognition that will be applied to all contracts with customers. The update requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects in exchange for the goods or services. It also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance will be required to be applied on a retrospective basis, using one of two methodologies, and was to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early application not being permitted. However, in July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date by one year. This guidance will now be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim reporting periods thereafter. Entities are permitted to adopt the guidance as of the original effective date. The Authority is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The update requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. It also requires management to provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. This guidance will be required for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods thereafter, with early application permitted. The Authority is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its financial statements.
In February 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which amends existing requirements applicable to reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether certain legal entities should be consolidated. This guidance will be required to be applied either on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis and will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim reporting periods thereafter, with early application permitted. The Authority is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance pertaining to leases based on the principle that entities should recognize assets and liabilities arising from leases. This guidance does not significantly change the lessees’ recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from the previous accounting standards. Leases are classified as operating or financing. The guidance's primary change is the requirement for entities to recognize a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the leased asset and a lease liability for payments during the term of operating lease arrangements. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lessors’ accounting is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. In addition, the guidance expands disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. This guidance will be required to be applied on a modified retrospective basis, which includes a number of practical expedients, and will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods thereafter, with early application permitted. The Authority is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its financial statements.

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).
In August 2015, the Authority entered into an increase joinder and amendment agreement among the Authority, the Tribe, the Guarantors as defined below, Citizens Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto, amending the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Pursuant to the amendment, the Authority borrowed $90.0 million of increase term B loans on the same terms as the existing term B loans under the Term Loan B Facility. The net proceeds from this transaction were used to redeem outstanding 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes (further discussed below).
On May 26, 2016, the Authority entered into a second amendment agreement among the Authority, the Tribe, the Guarantors as defined below, Citizens Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto, amending the Senior Secured Credit Facilities to, among other things, permit the Authority to make additional investments relating to its joint venture arrangement to build an integrated resort at Incheon International Airport in South Korea.

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 began with the first full fiscal quarter after the closing date.
As of June 30, 2016, amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility, Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility totaled $19.0 million, $100.0 million and $778.2 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2016, letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility totaled $2.5 million, of which no amount was drawn. Inclusive of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing availability under the Revolving Facility, the Authority had approximately $78.5 million of borrowing capacity under its Revolving Facility and Line of Credit as of June 30, 2016.
Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities accrue interest as follows: (i) for base rate loans under the Revolving Facility and Term Loan A Facility, at 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, at 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, at 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, at the applicable LIBOR rate (subject to a 1.0% floor) plus 450 basis points. The Authority is also 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, 2016, interest on the $19.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Facility was based on a base rate of 3.50% plus 300 basis points. The commitment fee was 0.50% as of June 30, 2016. As of June 30, 2016, interest on the $100.0 million outstanding under the Term Loan A Facility was based on a Eurodollar rate of 0.46% plus 400 basis points. As of June 30, 2016, interest on the $778.2 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, 2016 and September 30, 2015, accrued interest, including commitment fees, on the Senior Secured Credit Facilities was $162,000 and $195,000, respectively.
The Authority's obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Pocono 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 Pocono 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 are also 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, 2016, 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 manage expenses and enhance operating efficiencies 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 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.
Senior Unsecured Notes
2013 9 3/4% Senior Unsecured Notes
In August 2013, the Authority issued $500.0 million Senior Unsecured Notes with fixed interest payable at a rate of 9.75% per annum (the “Initial 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes”). In August 2015, the Authority issued an additional $85.0 million of senior unsecured notes under the Initial 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes indenture (the “Additional 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes” and, together with the Initial 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, the “2013 Senior Unsecured Notes”). Subsequent to this transaction, an aggregate principal amount of $585.0 million 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes is outstanding. The net proceeds from the Additional 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes were used to redeem outstanding 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes (further discussed below).
The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes mature on September 1, 2021. The Authority may redeem the 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to September 1, 2016 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium and accrued interest (and additional interest in the case of the Additional 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, if any, pursuant to the registration rights agreement described below) to the date of redemption. On or after September 1, 2016, the Authority may redeem the 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, in whole or in part, at specified redemption prices, together with accrued interest (and additional interest in the case of the Additional 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, if any) to the date of redemption. If the Authority experiences specific kinds of change of control triggering events, the Authority must offer to repurchase the 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest (and additional interest in the case of the Additional 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, if any) to the purchase date. In addition, if the Authority undertakes certain types of asset sales and does not use the related sale proceeds for specified purposes, the Authority may be required to offer to repurchase the 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest (and additional interest in the case of the Additional 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, if any). Interest on the 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes is payable semi-annually on March 1st and September 1st.
In March 2014, the Authority completed an offer to exchange the Initial 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes for a new issue of substantially identical debt securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, with all outstanding notes being exchanged. Additionally, in March 2016, the Authority completed an offer to exchange the Additional 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes for a new issue of substantially identical debt securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, with all outstanding notes being exchanged.
As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, accrued interest on the 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes was $19.0 million and $4.8 million, respectively.
The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes are uncollateralized general obligations of the Authority and are effectively subordinated to all of the Authority’s and the Guarantors' and future guarantor subsidiaries' senior secured indebtedness, including the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes are also 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. The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors.

The 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes indenture also 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.

In November 2015, pursuant to the Facility Agreement, the Authority entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Authority, the Tribe and the purchaser named therein (the “Purchaser”). In accordance with the Note Purchase Agreement, the Authority issued floating rate senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million (the “2015 Senior Unsecured Notes”) to the Purchaser in a private offering that closed on November 20, 2015. The net proceeds from the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes were used to pursue new development opportunities and for general corporate purposes. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes are senior unsecured obligations. Pursuant to a guarantee agreement dated November 20, 2015, certain of the Authority's subsidiaries, which are the same Guarantors that guarantee the Authority's Senior Secured Credit Facilities and other senior unsecured and senior subordinated notes, have guaranteed the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes mature on December 15, 2017. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus 4.45%, payable quarterly. As of June 30, 2016, interest on the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes was based on a LIBOR rate of 0.65% plus 4.45%.

If the Authority experiences specific kinds of change of control events, undertakes certain types of asset sales or experiences certain swap-related credit determinations, it will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes at purchase prices set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement. In addition, if any gaming regulatory authority requires a holder of the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes to be licensed, qualified or found suitable under applicable gaming laws, and such holder does not obtain such license, qualification or finding of suitability within a specified time, the Authority can call for redemption of the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes held by such holder.
The 2015 Senior Unsecured 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 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes are uncollateralized general obligations of the Authority and are effectively subordinated to all of the Authority’s and the Guarantors’ and future guarantor subsidiaries’ senior secured indebtedness, including the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes are also effectively subordinated to any indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of the Authority’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes rank equally in right of payment with the Authority’s other unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness, including trade payables. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors.
The Note Purchase Agreement contains certain covenants that, subject to certain significant exceptions, limit, among other things, the Authority’s and the 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 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. In addition, if the Authority undertakes certain types of asset sales or suffers events of loss, and the Authority does not use the related sale or insurance proceeds for specified purposes, the Authority may be required to offer to repurchase the 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest.

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 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes are uncollateralized general obligations of the Authority and are subordinated to borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the 2013 and 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes. The 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors.
The 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes indenture contains 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, 2016, the Authority and the Tribe were in compliance with all respective covenant requirements under the senior and senior subordinated note indentures and other debt agreements.
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, the Authority entered into a $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, 2016, no amount was drawn on the Line of Credit. Borrowings under the Line of Credit are uncollateralized general obligations of the Authority. 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, 2016, the Authority was in compliance with all covenant requirements under the Line of Credit. As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, accrued interest on the Line of Credit was $20,000 and $23,000, respectively.

The Downs Lodging Credit Facility accrued interest at an annual rate of 13.0%.
In July 2015, Downs Lodging prepaid approximately $4.5 million of the Downs Lodging Credit Facility, plus accrued interest and fees.

NOTE 5—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
Slot Win and Free Promotional Slot Play Contributions
In May 1994, the Tribe and the State of Connecticut entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”), which sets forth certain matters regarding implementation of the Mohegan Compact. The MOU stipulates that a portion of revenues from slot machines must be paid to the State of Connecticut (“Slot Win Contribution”). Slot Win Contribution payments are not required if the State of Connecticut legalizes any other gaming operation with slot machines, video facsimiles of games of chance or other commercial casino games within the State of Connecticut, except those consented to by the Tribe and the MPT. For each 12-month period commencing July 1, 1995, Slot Win Contribution payments shall be the lesser of: (1) 30% of gross revenues from slot machines or (2) the greater of (a) 25% of gross revenues from slot machines or (b) $80.0 million.
In September 2009, the Authority entered into a settlement agreement with the State of Connecticut regarding contribution payments on the Authority's free promotional slot play program. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, effective July 1, 2009, the State of Connecticut agreed that no value shall be attributed to free promotional slot plays utilized by patrons at Mohegan Sun for purposes of calculating monthly contribution payments, provided that the aggregate amount of free promotional slot plays during any month does not exceed a certain threshold of gross revenues from slot machines for such month. In the event free promotional slot plays granted by the Authority exceed such threshold, contribution payments are required on such excess face amount of free promotional slot plays at the same rate as Slot Win Contribution payments, or 25%. The threshold before contribution payments on free promotional slot plays are required is currently 11% of gross revenues from slot machines.
The Authority reflected expenses associated with the combined Slot Win Contribution and free promotional slot play contribution totaling $37.0 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and $109.6 million and $107.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Pennsylvania Race Horse Development and Gaming Act stipulates that holders of Category One slot machine licenses must pay a portion of revenues from slot machines to the PGCB on a daily basis (“Pennsylvania Slot Machine Tax”), which includes local share assessments to be paid to the cities and municipalities hosting Mohegan Sun Pocono and amounts to be paid to the Pennsylvania Harness Horsemen's Association, Inc. (the “PHHA”). The Pennsylvania Slot Machine Tax is currently 55% of gross revenues from slot machines, 2% of which is subject to a $10.0 million minimum annual threshold to ensure that the host cities and municipalities receive an annual minimum of $10.0 million in local share assessments. Downs Racing maintains a $1.5 million escrow deposit in the name of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for Pennsylvania Slot Machine Tax payments, which was included in other assets, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Authority reflected expenses associated with the Pennsylvania Slot Machine Tax totaling $31.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and $91.8 million and $88.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, outstanding Pennsylvania Slot Machine Tax payments totaled $3.4 million and $4.7 million, respectively.
Pennsylvania Table Game Tax
In January 2010, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania amended the Pennsylvania Race Horse Development and Gaming Act to allow slot machine operators in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to obtain a table game operation certificate and operate certain table games, including poker. Under the amended law, holders of table game operation certificates must pay a portion of revenues from table games to the PGCB on a weekly basis (“Pennsylvania Table Game Tax”). The Pennsylvania Table Game Tax was 12%, plus 2% in local share assessments. Effective August 1, 2016, the Pennsylvania Table Game Tax was increased to 14%, plus the 2% local share assessments.
The Authority reflected expenses associated with the Pennsylvania Table Game Tax totaling $1.6 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $4.7 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, outstanding Pennsylvania Table Game Tax payments totaled $157,000 and $148,000, respectively.
Pennsylvania Regulatory Fee
Slot machine licensees in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania are required to reimburse state gaming regulatory agencies for various administrative and operating expenses (“Pennsylvania Regulatory Fee”). As of June 30, 2016, the Pennsylvania Regulatory Fee was 1.5% of gross revenues from slot machines and table games. Effective August 1, 2016, the Pennsylvania Regulatory Fee was increased to 1.7% of gross revenues from slot machines and table games.
The Authority reflected expenses associated with the Pennsylvania Regulatory Fee totaling $1.2 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and $3.5 million and $3.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, outstanding Pennsylvania Regulatory Fee payments to the PGCB totaled $94,000 and $70,000, respectively.
Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board Loans
The PGCB was initially granted $36.1 million in loans to fund start-up costs for gaming in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which are to be repaid by slot machine licensees (the "Initial Loans"). The PGCB was subsequently granted an additional $63.8 million in loans to fund ongoing gaming oversight costs, which are also to be repaid by slot machine licensees (the "Subsequent Loans"). Repayment of the Initial Loans will commence when all 14 authorized gaming facilities are opened in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Currently, 12 of the 14 authorized gaming facilities have commenced operations. As of June 30, 2016, the Authority has concluded that a repayment contingency for the Initial Loans is probable but not reasonably estimable since the PGCB has not yet established a method of assessment of repayment for the Initial Loans and, as such, the Authority has not recorded a related accrual for such repayment. In June 2011, the PGCB adopted a method of assessment of repayment for the Subsequent Loans pursuant to which repayment commenced on January 1, 2012 and will continue over a 10-year period in accordance with a formula based on a combination of a single fiscal year and cumulative gross revenues from slot machines for each operating slot machine licensee.
The Authority reflected expenses associated with this repayment schedule totaling $156,000 and $155,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $469,000 and $468,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

NOTE 6—COWLITZ PROJECT:
In September 2004, Salishan-Mohegan entered into development and management agreements with the Cowlitz Tribe in connection with the Cowlitz Project, which agreements have been amended from time to time.

The management agreement is subject to approval by the National Indian Gaming Commission. The Cowlitz Tribe’s Class III Tribal-State gaming compact with the State of Washington became effective in August 2014 and was amended in April 2015. As amended, the compact authorizes the operation of up to 3,000 total gaming machines and 75 table games in a single facility, through the Cowlitz Tribe’s direct allocation of 1,075 gaming machines and 60 table games and the ability to lease additional units from other tribes. The compact is in effect until terminated by written agreement of both parties.
In March 2013, litigation commenced challenging the decision of the Assistant Secretary—Indian Affairs of the Department of the Interior to take the Cowlitz Project site into trust. In December 2014, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia granted summary judgment in favor of the federal government and Cowlitz Tribe, upholding the Record of Decision to take the site into trust. The plaintiffs appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. On July 29,

2016, the Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment of the District Court in its entirety. The Authority can provide no assurance as to whether the appellants will seek further review by the U.S. Supreme Court or the outcome of such a petition or other legal action.
In March 2015, the Cowlitz Project site was taken into trust by the United States Department of the Interior for the benefit of the Cowlitz Tribe. In connection with this event, the Cowlitz Tribe leased a substantial portion of the Cowlitz Project site back to Salishan-Mohegan for a nominal rental fee. The carrying value of the land totaling approximately $20.0 million was transferred to the Cowlitz Tribe at the time the site was taken into trust. This transfer resulted in additional receivables due from the Cowlitz Tribe. In April 2016, the remaining land totaling approximately $686,000 was transferred to CTGA. In connection with this transfer, Salishan-Mohegan assigned the outstanding balance of the promissory note that funded the acquisition of this portion of the land totaling approximately $342,000 to CTGA. The remaining $344,000 was recorded as an additional receivable due from the Cowlitz Tribe.
Construction of the Cowlitz Project commenced in September 2015 and is anticipated to be completed in late spring of 2017. The Authority can provide no assurance that remaining permits or approvals related to construction and opening or other remaining steps and conditions for the Cowlitz Project site to be approved for gaming will be satisfied.
In December 2015, the CTGA obtained financing for the Cowlitz Project. The financing provided funding for construction of the Cowlitz Project and a partial repayment of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables. In connection with this transaction, Salishan-Mohegan was repaid $19.4 million of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables, a portion of which was used to repay certain outstanding debt of Salishan-Mohegan. Under the terms of the development agreement, the remaining outstanding Salishan-Mohegan receivables are to be repaid in equal monthly installments over a seven-year period commencing the first month following the opening of the Cowlitz Project. The remaining outstanding Salishan-Mohegan receivables accrue interest at an annual rate equal to 1.0% above the Cowlitz Project financing rate, or 12.5%. Pursuant to the development agreement, repayment of the remaining outstanding Salishan-Mohegan receivables may accelerate depending on the level of available cash at the end of each fiscal year, subject to certain conditions as set forth in the development agreement, including conditions of the Cowlitz financing. Also in connection with the Cowlitz financing, Salishan-Mohegan assigned the lease for the Cowlitz Project site to CTGA.
The Authority maintains a reserve for doubtful collection of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables, which is based on the Authority's estimate of the probability that the receivables will be collected. The Authority assesses the reserve for doubtful collection of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables for adequacy on a quarterly basis. Following the Cowlitz financing, the Authority reduced the reserve for doubtful collection of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables. Future developments in the construction and opening of the proposed casino or other matters affecting the Cowlitz Project could affect the collectability of the Salishan-Mohegan receivables and the related reserve. As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, the Salishan-Mohegan receivables, including accrued interest, totaled $78.6 million and $90.7 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, related reserves for doubtful collection totaled $15.7 million and $21.2 million, respectively. The Salishan-Mohegan receivables were included in receivables, net, and other assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Authority earned $1.5 million and $7.3 million in development fees, including accrued interest, for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.
NOTE 7—SEGMENT REPORTING:
As of June 30, 2016, the Authority owns and operates, either directly or through wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mohegan Sun, the Connecticut Sun franchise and the Mohegan Sun Golf Club, and has partnered with an unrelated third-party to own and operate the New England Black Wolves franchise (collectively, the “Connecticut Facilities”), and the Pennsylvania Facilities. Substantially all of the Authority's revenues are derived from these operations. The Connecticut Sun franchise, the Mohegan Sun Golf Club and the New England Black Wolves franchise are aggregated with the Mohegan Sun operating segment because these operations all share similar economic characteristics, which is to generate gaming and entertainment revenues by attracting patrons to Mohegan Sun. The Authority's executive officers review and assess the performance and operating results and determine the proper allocation of resources to the Connecticut Facilities and the Pennsylvania Facilities on a separate basis. Accordingly, the Authority has two separate reportable segments: (1) Mohegan Sun, which includes the operations of the Connecticut Facilities and (2) Mohegan Sun Pocono, which includes the operations of the Pennsylvania Facilities. The Authority's operations related to investments in unconsolidated affiliates and certain other Corporate development and management operations have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in Corporate and other in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results.
