This Amendment No. 8 amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D
(as previously amended, the "Schedule 13D"), relating to the common stock, $.01
par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of MGM Grand, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), previously filed by Mr. Kerkorian and Tracinda
Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("Tracinda"). Terms used herein and not
defined in this Amendment have the meaning set forth in the Schedule 13D.
1. Item 2 "Identity and Background" of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended
to change the address of Tracinda's executive offices as follows:
150 Rodeo Drive, Suite 250
Beverly Hills, California 90212
2. Item 4 "Purpose of Transaction" and Item 5 "Interest in Securities of
the Issuer" of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended to add the following
information:
Pursuant to a tender offer by the Company, which expired on July 31,
1998, the Company is acquiring 6,000,000 shares of its Common Stock. As a
result of such tender offer, the aggregate percentage of Common Stock held
by Mr. Kerkorian and Tracinda will increase from approximately 62.5% of the
outstanding shares to approximately 69.7% and the percentage ownership of
Tracinda will increase to approximately 62.2%. Depending upon market
conditions and subject to compliance with all applicable laws, Tracinda may
seek to increase its ownership of Common Stock through purchases in the
open market, in private transactions, through tender offers or otherwise.
Tracinda and Mr. Kerkorian do not intend to engage in any transactions
which would result in the Company's Common Stock being held of record by
less than 300 persons or not being listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
3. Except as specifically provided herein, this amendment does not modify
any of the information previously reported on the Schedule 13D.
