ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On August 31, 2000, we entered into the Amendment to Credit Agreement;
Modifications to Third Waiver and Related Documents; Amendment to Manager
Subordination Agreement; and Other Agreements Amongst the Parties. The terms of
this agreement provide for the following amendments and modifications to certain
of our existing agreements:
o The agreement (1) amends our credit agreement to, among other things,
change the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
("EBITDA") maintenance requirements with which we are required to comply through
the quarter ended December 31, 2000; (2) subject to certain limitations,
re-establishes our $25 million revolving line of credit, and; (3) grants
additional waivers to allow Harrah's Entertainment, Inc. and Harrah's Operating
Company to advance up to an additional $10 million (in addition to the $40
million previously advanced) under their minimum payment guaranty of the $100
million minimum annual payment that we are required to pay to the Louisiana
Gaming Control Board under our casino operating contract, subject to certain
limitations, including the requirement that we must first borrow all of the $25
million available under our revolving line of credit before we may draw
additional amounts under the minimum payment guaranty. Advances under the
minimum payment guaranty are secured by a first priority lien on substantially
all of our assets.
o The agreement amends our limited forbearance agreement with Harrah's
New Orleans Management Company and Harrah's Operating Company to permit us to
continue to forbear until April 1, 2001, the payment of certain amounts,
including amounts presently due and becoming due under the administrative
services agreement, reimbursable costs due under our management agreement and
the rent and certain additional charges with respect to certain equipment that
we lease from Harrah's Operating Company.
o Harrah's Operating Company, Inc. repurchased from our bank lenders
approximately $145.5 million of our present obligations to the bank lenders,
which it had previously guaranteed under the Guaranty and Loan Purchase
Agreement, and agreed to provide the funding for the balance of our $25 million
revolving line of credit as it is drawn from the banks.
