| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On October 28, 2010, Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Second Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Barclays Bank PLC, as the administrative agent and the lenders party thereto (the “Second Amendment”), which amends the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 5, 2010, as previously amended (the “Credit Agreement”). The purpose of the Second Amendment was to modify the Company’s Credit Agreement in connection with the expanded scope and budget of the Company’s Baton Rouge project from $250 million to $357 million (exclusive of land acquisition costs and capitalized interest).
Specifically, the Second Amendment increased the capital expenditures limit for the Company’s Baton Rouge project from $235 million to $375 million. In addition, pursuant to the Second Amendment, the definition of commencement of construction was amended, with respect to the Company’s Baton Rouge project, to provide the spending from and after January 1, 2010 of an amount greater than $100 million (excluding certain costs such as land acquisition costs, costs to obtain a gaming license and capitalized interest). Prior to the Second Amendment, the definition of commencement of construction for the Company’s Baton Rouge project provided the spending from and after January 1, 2010 of an amount greater than $25 million (excluding certain costs such as land acquisition costs, costs to obtain a gaming license and capitalized interest).
The foregoing is only a summary of the terms of the Second Amendment, and is qualified by reference to the full text of the Second Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
