UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included herein presents the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations based upon the combined audited and unaudited historical financial statements of Eldorado Resorts, Inc., a Nevada corporation (ERI or the Company), Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. (Isle) acquired on May 1, 2017 (the Isle Acquisition), Tropicana Entertainment Inc. a Delaware corporation (Tropicana) and Elgin Riverboat Resort-Riverboat Casino, an Illinois general partnership (Elgin) after giving effect to the acquisitions, the Real Estate Sale, the ERI Financing Transactions (as defined below) and the sale of Presque Isle Downs and Lady Luck Nemacolin (the Dispositions) (together the Combined Transactions), and the adjustments described in the accompanying notes.
The Tropicana Acquisition
On October 1, 2018, the Company, filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the Original 8-K) to report the completion of its previously announced merger by and between the Company, Tropicana, Delta Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (Merger Sub), and GLP Capital, L.P., a Pennsylvania limited partnership that is the operating partnership of Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (GLP), pursuant to which (i) GLP purchased substantially all of the real property assets owned by Tropicana, other than the MontBleu Casino Resort & Spa, the Lumière Place Casino and Hotel (Lumière Place), and the Tropicana Aruba Resort and Casino, by GLP for $964 million, (ii) Tropicana St. Louis RE LLC, a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company purchased the real property associated with Lumière Place for $246 million and (iii) immediately following the consummation of the real estate transactions, Merger Sub merged with and into Tropicana, with Tropicana as the surviving entity (the Tropicana Acquisition).
On October 1, 2018, subsequent to the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition, Tropicana and Tropicana Atlantic City Corp. (Tropicana AC), wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, entered into the Master Lease, dated as of October 1, 2018, by and among Tropicana and Tropicana AC (collectively, Tenant), and Tropicana AC Sub Corp. and GLP (collectively, Landlord) pursuant to which Tropicana leased from GLP the five real property assets operated by it prior to the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition other than the MontBleu Casino Resort & Spa and Lumière. Tenants obligations under the Master Lease are guaranteed by the Companys subsidiaries that are operating the facilities leased under the Master Lease, or that own a gaming license, other license or other material asset necessary to operate any portion of the facilities. A default by Tropicana with regard to any facility will cause a default with regard to the entire portfolio. The Master Lease is a triple net master lease and has an initial term of 15 years, with renewals of up to 20 years at the Companys option. The initial annual rent under the terms of the lease is approximately $87.6 million. The payment structure under the Master Lease includes a fixed component, a portion of which is subject to an annual escalator of up to 2% if certain coverage ratio thresholds are met, and a component that is based on the performance of the facilities, which is prospectively adjusted, subject to a floor of zero. In addition to rental payments under the Master Lease, the Company is required to pay the following, among other things: (1) lease payments to the underlying ground lessor for properties that are subject to ground leases; (2) facility maintenance costs; (3) all insurance premiums for insurance with respect to the leased properties and the business conducted on the leased properties; (4) taxes levied on or with respect to the leased properties (other than taxes on the income of the lessor); and (5) all utilities and other services necessary or appropriate for the leased properties and the business conducted on the leased properties.
The Elgin Acquisition
On April 15, 2018, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Elgin (the Elgin Acquisition) for $327.5 million in cash, as adjusted pursuant to a customary working capital adjustment. The transaction closed on August 7, 2018 and was funded using cash from the Companys ongoing operations and borrowings under ERIs revolving credit facility. As a result of the Elgin Acquisition, Elgin became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Grand Victoria Casino Elgin is a riverboat casino located about forty miles west of Chicago, with an approximate 29,850 square feet facility consisting of approximately 1,100 slot machines and 36 table games.
ERI financing transactions
In connection with the Tropicana Acquisition, the Company completed an offering of $600.0 million of 6.0% Senior Notes due 2026 (the Notes). The proceeds of the Notes, together with borrowings under the Companys revolving credit facility, the Companys cash on hand and Tropicanas cash on hand, were used to (i) pay the consideration payable by the Company in the Tropicana Acquisition, (ii) repay all of the debt outstanding under Tropicanas credit facility and (iii) pay fees and costs associated with the Tropicana Acquisition. Additionally, substantially concurrent with the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition, the Company amended its credit facility to increase its revolving credit facility from $300.0 million to $500.0 million and extended the maturity of its revolving credit facility from April 2022 to the fifth anniversary following the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition (the offering of the Notes and the credit facility amendments, the ERI Financing Transactions).

Lumiere financing
In connection with the purchase of the real estate related to Lumière Place, in order for GLP to timely obtain the necessary regulatory approvals for the Tropicana Acquisition, (i) Tropicana St. Louis RE LLC (Tropicana St. Louis RE), a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company purchased the real property associated with Lumière Place (the Lumière Real Property) pursuant to an amendment of the Purchase and Sale Agreement and (ii) GLP, Tropicana St. Louis RE and the Company entered into a Loan Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2018 (the Lumière Loan) that provides for a loan to Tropicana St. Louis RE of an aggregate of $246 million to fund the entire purchase price of the Lumière Real Property and a guaranty by the Company of the amounts owed by Tropicana St. Louis RE. The Lumière Loan bears interest at a rate equal to (i) 9.09% until the 1-year anniversary of the closing of the Tropicana Acquisition and (ii) 9.27% until the 2-year anniversary of the closing of the Tropicana Acquisition, and matures on the second anniversary of the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition, subject to three 1-year extensions that are exercisable under specified circumstances. The Lumière Loan is secured by a first priority mortgage on the Lumière Real Property until the first anniversary of the closing.
The Dispositions
On February 28, 2018, ERI entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Presque Isle Downs and Lady Luck Vicksburg, subsidiaries of the Company, to Churchill Downs Incorporated (CDI). Under the terms of the agreements, CDI agreed to purchase Presque Isle Downs for cash consideration of approximately $178.9 million and Lady Luck Vicksburg for cash consideration of approximately $50.6 million, in each case subject to a customary working capital adjustment.
The definitive agreements provided that the transactions were subject to receipt of required regulatory approvals, termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and other customary closing conditions, including, in the case of Presque Isle Downs, the prior closing of the sale of Lady Luck Vicksburg or the entry into an agreement to acquire another asset of the Company. On May 7, 2018, the Company and CDI each received a Request for Additional Information and Documentary Materials, often referred to as a Second Request, from the Federal Trade Commission in connection with its review of the Lady Luck Vicksburg acquisition. Following receipt of, and in consideration of the time and expense needed to reply to, the Second Request, pursuant to a termination agreement and release, dated as of July 6, 2018, by and among CDI, ERI and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ERI, the Company and CDI mutually agreed to terminate the asset purchase agreement with respect to the Lady Luck Vicksburg transaction.
In connection with the termination of the Lady Luck Vicksburg acquisition, CDI agreed to pay the Company a $5.0 million termination fee, subject to the parties execution of a definitive agreement to acquire and assume the Companys rights and obligations to operate Lady Luck Nemacolin. On August 13, 2018, ERI entered into an agreement pursuant to which CDI will acquire Nemacolin for cash consideration of $100,000, subject to a customary working capital adjustment. Substantially concurrent with the execution of the purchase agreement for the Nemacolin Transaction, CDI paid the Company the $5.0 million termination fee related to Lady Luck Vicksburg.
The Isle Acquisition
On May 1, 2017, ERI completed the Isle Acquisition for a total purchase consideration of $1.93 billion and Isle became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ERI.
In connection with the Isle Acquisition, the Company completed a debt financing transaction comprised of: (a) a senior secured credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.75 billion with a (i) term loan facility of $1.45 billion and (ii) revolving credit facility of $300.0 million and (b) $375.0 million of 6.0% senior unsecured notes.

Basis for Historical Information
The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements have been prepared by management for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the results of operations, balance sheet data or other financial information of ERI would have been if the Combined Transactions had occurred as of the dates indicated or what such results will be for any future periods. The pro forma adjustments are based on the preliminary assumptions and information available at the time of the preparation of this report. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are: (1) directly attributable to the Combined Transactions, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the Unaudited Pro Forma Income Statements, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results of ERI. As such, the Unaudited Pro Forma Income Statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017 do not reflect non-recurring charges that will be incurred in connection with the Combined Transactions. The Unaudited Pro Forma Income Statements also do not reflect any cost savings from potential operating efficiencies or associated costs to achieve such savings or synergies that are expected to result from the Combined Transactions nor does it include any costs associated with severance, restructuring or integration activities resulting from the Combined Transactions, as they are currently not known, and, to the extent they arise, they are expected to be non-recurring and would not have been incurred at the closing date of the Combined Transactions. However, such costs could affect the combined company following the Combined Transactions in the period the costs are incurred. Further, the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements do not reflect the effect of any regulatory actions that may impact the results of the combined company following the Combined Transactions.

Note 1BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the pro forma effects of the following transactions on ERI:
| the Tropicana Acquisition; |
| the Elgin Acquisition; |
| the Real Estate Sale; |
| the ERI Financing Transactions; |
| the Dispositions; and |
| the Isle Acquisition. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to transactions that are (i) directly attributable to the Combined Transactions, (ii) factually supportable and (iii) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the operating results of the combined company. The historical information of ERI (including Isle), Tropicana, and Elgin is presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet (the Unaudited Pro Forma Balance Sheet) as of September 30, 2018 was prepared using the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheets of ERI and Tropicana as of September 30, 2018, and shows the combined financial position of ERI and Tropicana as if the Tropicana Acquisition, the Real Estate Sale, the ERI Financing Transactions, and the Dispositions had occurred on September 30, 2018. The Elgin Acquisition and the Isle Acquisition are already reflected in ERIs historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018. Therefore, no pro forma balance sheet adjustments are necessary to show the pro forma impact of the Elgin Acquisition and the Isle Acquisition.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations (the Unaudited Pro Forma Income Statements) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, give effect to the Tropicana Acquisition, the Elgin Acquisition, the Real Estate Sale, the ERI Financing Transactions, the Dispositions, and the Isle Acquisition as if they had occurred on January 1, 2017 and reflect pro forma adjustments that are expected to have a continuing impact on the results of operations. The Elgin Acquisition was consummated on August 7, 2018, and as such, is already reflected in ERIs historical unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the period from August 7, 2018 to September 30, 2018. Accordingly, the effect of the Elgin Acquisition is included in the unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 and for the period from January 1, 2018 to August 6, 2018. The Isle Acquisition was consummated on May 1, 2017, and as such, is already reflected in ERIs historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the period from May 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 and historical unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Accordingly, the effect of the Isle Acquisition is included in the unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations from January 1, 2017 to April 30, 2017.
ERIs historical financial and operating data for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018 is derived from the financial data in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and from its unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The historical financial and operating data for Tropicana for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018 is derived from the financial data in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and from its unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The historical financial and operating data for Elgin for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the period from January 1, 2018 to August 6, 2018 is derived from the financial data in its audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and from its unaudited financial statements for the period from January 1, 2018 to August 6, 2018.
Note that certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of Tropicana and Elgin to align their presentation in the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements to conform to ERI. Additionally, in May 2014 (amended January 2017), the FASB issued ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and eliminates existing industry guidance, including revenue recognition guidance specific to the gaming industry. Public entities were required to adopt ASC Topic 606 effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. ERI and Tropicana adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018, and elected to apply the full retrospective adoption method. All periods for ERI and Tropicana reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606. Elgin had not adopted this standard prior to the acquisition by ERI and are reflected in the reclass column.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, with ERI treated as the accounting acquirer of the Tropicana Acquisition, the Elgin Acquisition, the Real Estate Sale, and the Isle Acquisition, and reflect the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the acquired assets and liabilities based upon a preliminary estimate of fair values, using the assumptions set forth in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

Preliminary purchase price accountingTropicana
Under the acquisition method of accounting, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Tropicana are recorded at the acquisition date fair values. The pro forma adjustments on the condensed combined balance sheet are preliminary and based on estimates of the fair value and useful lives of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of September 30, 2018 and have been prepared to illustrate the estimated effect of the Tropicana Acquisition. The allocation is dependent upon certain valuation and other studies that have not yet been completed. Accordingly, the pro forma purchase price allocation is subject to further adjustment as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses and final valuations are completed. There can be no assurances that these additional analyses and final valuations will not result in significant changes to the estimates of fair value set forth below.
The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Tropicana, with the excess recorded as goodwill (dollars in thousands):

b) | Represents the estimated adjustment to step up Tropicanas property, plant and equipment (PP&E) (excluding the real property acquired by GLP pursuant to the Real Estate Sale) to a fair value of approximately $435.9 million, which is an increase of approximately $82.5 million, from the carrying values. The fair value estimates are preliminary and subject to change. |
The fair value of land (excluding the real property acquired by GLP pursuant to the Real Estate Sale) was determined using the market approach, which arrives at an indication of value by comparing the site being valued to sites that have been recently acquired in arms-length transactions. The market data is then adjusted for any significant differences, to the extent known, between the identified comparable sites and the site being valued. Building and site improvements were valued using the cost approach using a direct cost model built on estimates of replacement cost. With respect to personal property components of the assets, personal property assets with an active and identifiable secondary market such as riverboats, gaming equipment, computer equipment and vehicles were valued using the market approach. Other personal property assets such as furniture, fixtures, computer software, and restaurant equipment were valued using the cost approach which is based on replacement or reproduction costs of the asset. The cost approach is an estimation of fair value developed by computing the current cost of replacing a property and subtracting any depreciation resulting from one or more of the following factors: physical deterioration, functional obsolescence, and/or economic obsolescence. The income approach incorporates all tangible and intangible property and served as a ceiling for the fair values of the acquired assets of the ongoing business enterprise, while still taking into account the premise of highest and best use. In the instance where the business enterprise value developed via the income approach was exceeded by the initial fair values of the underlying assets, an adjustment to reflect economic obsolescence was made to the tangible assets on a pro rata basis to reflect the contributory value of each individual asset to the enterprise as a whole.
In connection with the Tropicana Acquisition and the Real Estate Sale, certain real estate assets were sold to GLP. Substantially concurrent with the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition, ERI entered into the Master Lease with GLP pursuant to which the Company leased the real estate acquired by GLP in the Real Estate Sale. Under the terms of Master Lease, ERI determined that the length of the lease, including optional renewal periods, would represent substantially all (90% or more) of the remaining economic lives of the properties and facilities subject to the lease, and the terms of the renewal options give ERI the ability to renew the lease at a rate that has the potential of being less than a fair market value rate as determined at the time of renewal. Accordingly, ERI determined that the transaction did not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting.
The real estate assets that were sold to GLP and leased back by ERI were first adjusted to fair value concurrent with the Tropicana Acquisition. The fair value was determined based on the highest and best use of the real estate assets, where the highest and best use represents the value determined from a REITs perspective, which increased the value due to its tax-advantaged status and lower cost of capital. The fair value of the properties was determined utilizing the direct capitalization method of the income approach. In allocating the fair value to the underlying acquired assets, a fair value for the buildings and improvements was determined using the above mentioned cost approach method. To determine the underlying land value, the extraction method was applied wherein the fair value of the building and improvements was deducted from the fair value of the property as derived from the direct capitalization approach to determine the fair value of the land. The fair value of GLPs real estate assets is determined to be $957.3 million, which is an increase of approximately $517.5 million, from the carrying values. ERI also recognized a failed sale-leaseback financing obligation equal to this fair value (see Note 3(n) for the related liability).
GLP or its affiliate loaned the Company an aggregate of $246.0 million to fund the entire purchase price of the Lumiere Real Property. The fair value of the Lumiere Real Property is estimated to be $246.0 million.
11
Adjustments to depreciation expense for property and equipment were based on comparing the historical depreciation recorded during the periods presented to the revised depreciation. The revised depreciation was calculated by dividing, on a straight-line basis, the fair value assigned to Elgins and Tropicanas property and equipment by the estimated remaining useful lives assigned to the assets. The following table illustrates the pro forma adjustments to depreciation expense (dollars in thousands):

c) | Represents the estimated adjustment for Tropicanas intangible assets, the elimination of historical Tropicana intangible assets and goodwill and the recognition of the preliminary goodwill for the purchase consideration in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired in connection with the Tropicana Acquisition. The fair value of Tropicanas intangibles assets is approximately $130.5 million, an increase of approximately $61.8 million from Tropicanas historical carrying value. The fair value estimate is preliminary and subject to change.

The fair value of the gaming licenses was determined using the excess earnings or replacement cost methodology, based on whether the license resides in gaming jurisdictions where competition is limited to a specified number of licensed gaming operators. The excess earnings methodology is an income approach methodology that estimates the projected cash flows of the business attributable to the gaming license intangible asset, which is net of charges for the use of other identifiable assets of the business including working capital, fixed assets and other intangible assets. Under the respective states gaming legislation, the property specific licenses can only be acquired if a theoretical buyer were to acquire each existing facility. The existing licenses could not be acquired and used for a different facility. The properties estimated future cash flows were the primary assumption in the respective valuations. Cash flow estimates included net gaming revenue, gaming operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, and tax expense. The replacement cost methodology is a cost approach methodology based on replacement or reproduction cost of the gaming license as an indicator of fair value.
ERI has preliminarily assigned an indefinite useful life to the gaming licenses, in accordance with its review of the applicable guidance of ASC 350. The standard required ERI to consider, among other things, the expected use of the asset, the expected useful life of other related asset or asset group, any legal, regulatory, or contractual provisions that may limit the useful life, ERIs own historical experience in renewing similar arrangements, the effects of obsolescence, demand and other economic factors, and the maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected cash flows. In that analysis, ERI determined that no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors limit the useful lives of these intangible assets. Tropicana currently has licenses in New Jersey, Missouri, Mississippi, Nevada, Indiana, and Louisiana. The renewal of each states gaming license depends on a number of factors, including payment of certain fees and taxes, providing certain information to the states gaming regulator, and meeting certain inspection requirements. However, ERIs historical experience has not indicated, nor does ERI expect, any limitations regarding its ability to continue to renew each license. No other competitive, contractual, or economic factor limits the useful lives of these assets. Accordingly, ERI has preliminarily concluded that the useful lives of these licenses are indefinite.
Trademarks are valued using the relief from royalty method, which presumes that without ownership of such trademarks, ERI would have to make a stream of payments to a brand or franchise owner in return for the right to use their name. By virtue of this asset, ERI avoids any such payments and records the related intangible value of ERIs ownership of the brand name. The primary assumptions in the valuation included revenue, pre-tax royalty rate, and tax expense. ERI has preliminarily assigned an indefinite useful life to the trademark.
12
Player relationships were valued using the cost approach and the incremental cash flow method under the income approach. The incremental cash flow method is used to estimate the fair value of an intangible asset based on a residual cash flow notion. This method measures the benefits (e.g., cash flows) derived from ownership of an acquired intangible asset as if it were in place, as compared to the acquirers expected cash flows as if the intangible asset were not in place (i.e., with-and-without). The residual or net cash flows of the two models is ascribable to the intangible asset.
Adjustments to amortization expense for definite-lived intangibles were based on comparing the historical amortization recorded during the periods presented to the revised amortization. The revised amortization was based on the estimated fair value amortized over the respective useful lives of the intangible assets. The following table illustrates the pro forma adjustments to amortization expense (dollars in thousands):

g) | ERI and Tropicana anticipate incurring approximately $1.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for a total of $2.3 million in transaction related costs, as described in Note 3(a) as cash payout. Such costs consist primarily of legal, financial advisor, gaming license transfer fees, accounting and consulting costs, and was shown as a pro forma adjustment reducing retained earnings. These costs are not reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations because they are nonrecurring items that are directly related to the acquisitions. Approximately $21.8 million was related to financing and was capitalized and netted against debt balance as described in Note 3(e) above. |

The related impact to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations as a result of the fair value adjustments of the assets and liabilities of Isle as a result of the Isle Acquisition have been included in the discussion of pro forma adjustments above.
a) | Represents an adjustment to historical depreciation and amortization expense as a result of fair value of PP&E and intangible assists recognized for the period from January 1, 2017 to April 30, 2017. |
18
b) | Represents additional interest expense of $19.6 million for the period from January 1, 2017 to April 30, 2017 as a result of refinancing activity incurred in conjunction with the Isle Acquisition off-set by the write-off of Isle historical interest expenses of $21.5 million for the period from January 1, 2017 to April 30, 2017 as a result of debt paying down by ERI. |
c) | The income tax adjustment assumes income taxes based on ERIs historical statutory tax rate. |
n) | Failed sale-leaseback financing obligation is primarily related to the real estate assets that were sold to GLP and leased back to ERI pursuant to the Tropicana Acquisition. Under the terms of the agreements, ERI determined that the transaction did not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting, and therefore, recognized a failed sale-leaseback financing obligation equal to the fair value of the leased real estate assets. |
When cash proceeds are exchanged, a failed sale-leaseback financing obligation is equal to the proceeds received for the assets that are sold and then leased back. However, in the absence of cash proceeds, the value of the failed sale-leaseback financing obligations recognized in this transaction was determined to be the fair value of the leased real estate assets as described in Note 3(b). In subsequent periods, a portion of the periodic lease payment under the Master Lease will be recognized as interest expense with the remainder of the lease payment reducing the failed sale-leaseback financing obligation using the effective interest method. However, the failed sale-leaseback obligations will not be reduced to less than the net book value of the leased real estate assets as of the end of the lease term, which is estimated to be $236.3 million.
The fair value of the real estate assets and the related failed sale-leaseback financing obligations were estimated based on the present value of the estimated future lease payments over the lease term of 35 years, including renewal options, using an imputed discount rate of approximately 10.25%. The value of the failed sale-leaseback financing obligations is dependent upon assumptions regarding the amount of the lease payments and the estimated discount rate of the lease payments required by a market participant. The market participants were determined to be REIT companies, which have a tax-advantaged status and lower cost of capital.
The pro forma future lease payments were estimated primarily based on the lease provisions further described herein. The pro forma future lease payments amounts include the minimum lease payments and were adjusted to include estimated lease payments as described in the agreements, including an annual escalator of up to 2%.
The pro forma future payments related to the failed sale-leaseback financing obligations, as September 30, 2018, are estimated as follows:

Note 4Unaudited pro forma financial statement reclassification adjustments
Certain reclassifications have been recorded to the historical financial statements of Elgin and Tropicana to provide comparability and consistency for the anticipated post-combined company presentation.
Reclassifications were made between certain balance sheet accounts to provide consistency in presentation.
Reclassifications were made among revenue components to classify certain revenue streams consistently between the companies. These included presenting expired slot tickets in gaming revenue and other supporting revenue activities such as spa and room rentals as other revenue.
Reclassifications were also made between expense line items, such as casino, gaming taxes and other costs, as well as marketing and promotions and general and administrative. Certain reclassifications were required to remain consistent with the changes made within revenue reclassifications.
As indicated in Note 1, ERI and Tropicana adopted ASC Topic 606 effective January 1, 2018. Elgin had not adopted this standard prior to the acquisition by ERI. Accordingly, reclassifications and adjustments were made to reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606 to the historical financial statements of Elgin to provide comparability and consistency for the anticipated post-combined company presentation.
The reclassifications reflect the anticipated presentation of the post-combination companys financial statements and are subject to change.
Note 5Financing agreements
In connection with the Tropicana Acquisition, the Company completed an offering of $600.0 million of the Notes. The proceeds of the Notes, together with borrowings under the Companys revolving credit facility, the Companys cash on hand and Tropicanas cash on hand, were used to (i) pay the Merger Consideration, (ii) repay all of the debt outstanding under Tropicanas credit facility and (iii) pay fees and costs associated with the Tropicana Acquisition. Additionally, substantially concurrent with the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition, the Company amended its credit facility to increase the Companys revolving credit facility from $300.0 million to $500.0 million and extend the maturity of its revolving credit facility to five years following the consummation of the Tropicana Acquisition.
The pro forma financial statements reflect an estimate of interest rates for the various debt facilities based on current market conditions and rates currently available and based on facilities with similar terms and tenors. For pro forma purposes, the interest rate utilized to estimate interest expense associated with the Notes is a fixed rate of 6.0%.
