Item 1.01 Entry Into Material Definitive Agreements.

On August 25, 2016, Dover Motorsports, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Nashville Speedway U.S.A., Inc., entered into a definitive agreement to sell our Nashville Superspeedway facility along with some related equipment and assets to an entity owned by Panattoni Development Company, an international commercial real estate development company specializing in industrial, office and build-to-suit projects. The agreement provides for an aggregate purchase price of $27.5 million in cash plus the assumption by the purchaser of our obligations under certain Variable Rate Tax Exempt Infrastructure Revenue Bonds issued by the Sports Authority of the County of Wilson, Tennessee. The Bonds, which have a remaining principal balance of $17,200,000, are secured by a letter of credit provided by us which will be replaced by a letter of credit provided by the purchaser.

Our balance sheet includes a $1,783,000 contingent obligation for the estimated portion of the debt service that may not be covered by property and sales taxes at the Nashville facility if it were to remain closed. Upon closing of the transaction, we will reverse the contingent obligations which will result in a $1,783,000 increase in our pre-tax earnings.

We estimate that net proceeds from the sale will be approximately $21-$22 million after income taxes and settlement adjustments.

Closing is subject to customary due diligence and closing conditions, including zoning approvals, and is anticipated to take place in the first quarter of 2017.
