The Amendment modifies the Existing Credit Agreement to remove certain of the limitations imposed during the covenant relief period by a prior amendment on (i) the Company’s ability to refinance debt previously incurred under the ratio debt basket and (ii) the Company’s ability to repay junior secured or unsecured indebtedness, such that, during the covenant relief period, subject to certain limitations, including the achievement of a total net leverage ratio of 5.50 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis, the absence of events of default, pro forma compliance with financial covenants (to the extent applicable during the covenant relief period), the use of no more than $200 million of proceeds of borrowings under the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement for such purpose and no use of any cash or cash equivalents held in casino cages for such purpose, the Company may repay junior secured or unsecured indebtedness with cash on hand and borrowings under such revolving credit facility. 4.750% Senior Notes due June 2031 On June 8, 2021, we issued $900 million aggregate principal amount of 4.750% senior notes due June 2031 (the "4.750% Notes due 2031"). The 4.750% Notes due 2031 require semi-annual interest payments on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2021.

The net proceeds from the 4.750% Notes due 2031 and cash on hand were used to finance the redemption of our outstanding 6.375% senior notes due April 2026 ("6.375% Notes") and 6.000% senior notes due August 2026 ("6.000% Notes"). In conjunction with the issuance of the 4.750% Notes due 2031, we incurred approximately $14.5 million in debt financing costs that have been deferred and are being amortized over the term of the 4.750% Notes due 2031 using the effective interest method. At any time prior to June 15, 2026, we may redeem the 4.750% Notes due 2031, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date, plus a make whole premium. In addition, at any time prior to June 15, 2024, we may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 4.750% Notes due 2031 at a redemption price (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) equal to 104.750%, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest.

The Company used operating cash to pay the redemption premium, accrued and unpaid interest, fees, expenses and commissions related to this redemption.

The redemption was funded through the issuance of the 4.750% Notes due 2031 and cash on hand.

Covenant Compliance On May 8, 2020, we amended the Bank Credit Agreement to, among other things, waive the financial covenants for the period beginning on March 30, 2020 through the earlier of (x) the date on which the Company delivers to the administrative agent a covenant relief period termination notice, (y) the date on which the administrative agent receives a compliance certificate with respect to the Company’s fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021, and (z) the date on which the Company fails to satisfy the conditions to covenant relief set forth in the amendment.
