These covenants are subject to exceptions and qualifications set forth in the indenture.
Credit Facility
On October 1, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other lenders party thereto, providing for senior secured financing of up to $2.565 billion, consisting of a senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.945 billion (the “Term Loan Facility”), which was to mature in 2028, and a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $620.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). In February 2026, total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility had been reduced to approximately $519.3 million following certain commitment reductions, including reductions in connection with the Bally’s Twin River sale-leaseback transaction, which were partially offset by incremental commitments. As of March 31, 2026 (Successor), there was $183.6 million available under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.
In September 2025, the Company executed a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 3”) and an Incremental Joinder Agreement that collectively extended and increased the revolving credit facility and updated certain covenants and pricing provisions. Following the effectiveness of these amendments in January 2026, a portion of the revolving credit facility will mature in 2028, while the remaining portion will mature in 2026. In February 2026, the Company also executed a Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 4”), which increased the interest rate margins applicable to revolving loans and swingline loans.
The credit facilities allow the Company to increase the size of the Term Loan Facility or request one or more incremental term loan facilities or increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or add one or more incremental revolving facilities in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $325.0 million and 50% of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA for the most recent four-quarter period plus or minus certain amounts as specified in the Credit Agreement, including an unlimited amount subject to compliance with a consolidated total secured net leverage ratio as set out in the Credit Agreement.
The credit facilities are guaranteed by the Company’s restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, and secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s and each of the guarantors’ assets, subject to certain exceptions.
The Company’s borrowings under the credit facilities bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (1) the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), adjusted for certain additional costs and subject to a floor of 0.50% in the case of term loans and 0.00% in the case of revolving loans or (2) a base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate, (c) the one-month SOFR rate plus 1.00%, (d) solely in the case of term loans,1.50% and (e) solely in the case of revolving loans,1.00%, in each case of clauses (1) and (2), plus an applicable margin. In addition, on a quarterly basis, the Company is required to pay each lender under the Revolving Credit Facility a 0.50% or 0.375% commitment fee in respect of commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, with the applicable commitment fee determined based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio.
The credit facilities contain covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments, sell assets, make certain investments and grant liens. These covenants are subject to exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility contains a financial covenant regarding a maximum first lien net leverage ratio that, following the effectiveness of Amendment No. 3, applies when utilization under the Revolving Credit Facility exceeds 25% of the total revolving commitment.
In May 2026, the Required Revolving Lenders and Administrative Agent under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility conditionally waived compliance with the consolidated net leverage ratio covenant for each fiscal quarter ending during the period commencing March 31, 2026 through the earlier of (i) the Company’s election to terminate the waiver upon certifying compliance with the covenant as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) the date immediately preceding the delivery of the compliance certificate for the quarter ending March 31, 2027 (the “Covenant Waiver Period”). The waiver remains subject to the Company’s ongoing satisfaction of certain liquidity maintenance requirements, restrictions on additional secured indebtedness, compliance with the covenants under the Company’s term loan credit agreement and agreement to enter into an amendment to the revolving credit facility within a specified period in order to incorporate certain covenants from the Company’s term loan credit agreement. Failure to satisfy any such condition will result in automatic termination of the waiver and reinstatement of the covenant in full force and effect. As of the date of this filing, the Company was in compliance with all applicable terms of the waiver. The Company expects to remain in compliance through the Covenant Waiver Period and, for applicable covenants, through the next twelve months.
In an effort to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with the Company’s variable rate credit facilities, the Company utilizes interest rate and cross currency swap derivative instruments. Refer to Note 11 “Derivative Instruments” for further information.
