Boyd Gaming Debt

Credit Facility

On March 29, 2017, the Company, as borrower, entered into Amendment No. 2 and Refinancing Amendment (the "Refinancing Amendment") with the lenders party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A. ("Bank of America"), as administrative agent. The Refinancing Amendment modifies the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended prior to the execution of the Refinancing Amendment, the "Existing Credit Agreement"), dated as of August 14, 2013, among the Company, certain financial institutions, and Bank of America, as administrative agent. The Refinancing Amendment modified the Existing Credit Agreement and is referred to as the "Amended Credit Agreement" (together referred to as the "Credit Facility").

The Amended Credit Agreement provides for (i) commitments to make Term B Loans in an amount equal to $1,264.5 million (the "Refinancing Term B Loans"), with the proceeds used to refinance in full the Company’s Term B-1 Loans and Term B-2 Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and (ii) certain other amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement.

Interest and Fees

The interest rate on the outstanding balance of the Refinancing Term B Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement is based upon, at the Company’s option, either: (i) the Eurodollar rate or (ii) the base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin. Such applicable margin is a percentage per annum determined in accordance with the Company’s secured leverage ratio and ranges from 2.25% to 2.50% (if using the Eurodollar rate) and from 1.25% to 1.50% (if using the base rate).

Optional and Mandatory Prepayments

The Company shall make repayments of the Refinancing Term B Loans on or before the last business day of each fiscal quarter of the Company commencing with the first full fiscal quarter of the Company after the Refinancing Effective Date in an amount equal to (x) 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Refinancing Term B Loans plus (y) 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of any increased Refinancing Term B Loan, as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement. The Company shall repay the outstanding principal amount of all Refinancing Term B Loans on the maturity date for the Refinancing Term B Loans, which shall be September 15, 2023.

Amounts outstanding under the Refinancing Amendment may be prepaid without premium or penalty, and the commitments may be terminated without penalty, subject to certain exceptions, including a 1.00% prepayment premium for any full or partial prepayment of the Refinancing Term B Loans effected prior to the six-month anniversary of the Refinancing Effective Date that results in a lower interest rate.

The outstanding principal amounts under the Credit Facility are comprised of the following:



	March 31,		December 31,

Revolving Credit Facility	$	240,000	$	245,000
