Indefinite-life intangible assets increased by $125.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to the $100 million of gaming license fees for Hollywood Gaming at Dayton Raceway and Hollywood Gaming at Mahoning Valley Race Course, as well as the $25 million gaming license fee associated with Plainridge Park Casino (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). Half of the gaming license fee for both Ohio racinos has been paid ($10 million for each facility in the second quarter of 2014 and $15 million upon opening for each facility) with the remaining $50 million ($25 million for each facility) due one year from commencement of operations. The remaining gaming license fees to be paid are included in accrued expenses within the condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2014. Intangible asset amortization expense was $0.6 million and $11.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to $5.1 million and $11.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. The amortization of the gaming license for Argosy Casino Sioux City, which began in April 2013 with the awarding of the gaming license to another gaming operator, was completed in June 2014 (see Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details).
