Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic and the United States federal government declared it a national emergency. The spread of COVID-19 has affected most segments of the global economy, including the Company’sour operations. In March 2020, the Companywe temporarily suspended operations at its North American owned, operatedour properties in the United States and managed propertiesCanada to ensure the health and safety of itsour employees, guests and the surrounding communities in which the Company operates,we operate, consistent with directives from various governmentgovernmental bodies. Following these closures,All of our properties in the CompanyUnited States were reopened itsby July 2020. Our properties as follows: (i) Paragon Casino Resort on May 20, 2020, (ii) ilani Casino Resort on May 28, 2020, (iii) Mohegan Sun on June 1, 2020, (iv) Mohegan Sun Pocono on June 22, 2020 and (v) Resorts Casino Hotel onin Canada reopened in July 2, 2020. Mohegan Sun Pocono was again2021, but were temporarily closed again from December 12, 2020January 5, 2022 through January 3, 202130, 2022, due to a resurgence of COVID-19.
COVID-19 at that time. In addition, Mohegan Sun Las Vegas opened to the publichas had a significant impact on March 25, 2021 under capacity restrictions due to COVID-19. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the MGE Niagara Resorts remain temporarily closed.
The Company cannot predict when the MGE Niagara Resorts will be able to reopen or the conditions upon which such reopening may occur, and while the Company's reopened properties have experienced some level of continued business disruption, the Company expects that these disruptions will gradually dissipate, and remains confident in its ability to mitigate the impact of any such disruption through expense management. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company'sour operations, has been significant, though the full extent of its impact will dependwhich depends on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as confidence. Such developments include the following:
the duration of COVID-19 or the extent of any resurgence or variants of COVID-19, COVID-19;
the manner in which the Company’sour guests, suppliers and other third parties respond to COVID-19, including the perception of safety and health measures taken by the Company, we implemented;
new information whichthat may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to contain or treat it, as well as it;
general economic conditionsconditions; and
consumer confidence.
Accordingly, the Companywe cannot reasonably estimate the extent to which COVID-19 will further impact itsour future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The CompanyWe could experience other potential adverse impacts as a result of COVID-19, including, but not limited to, charges from further adjustments to the carrying value of itsour intangible assets, as well as other long-lived asset impairment
charges. Actual results may differ materially from the Company’sour current estimates as the scope of COVID-19 evolves, depending largely, but not exclusively, on the duration and extent of the Company’sour business disruptions.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. As further discussed within Note 3, on January 26, 2021, the Company (i) entered into a new credit agreement which, among other things, provided for an approximately $262.9 million senior secured revolving credit facility, removed the financial covenants (other than a minimum liquidity covenant) applicable for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2020, modified the financial covenants applicable for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2021 and thereafter and extended the maturity date of the new senior secured revolving credit facility to April 14, 2023 and (ii) issued approximately $1.2 billion of new senior secured notes due February 1, 2026. The proceeds from these transactions were used to refinance certain existing indebtedness of the Company (refer to Note 3). Based on the aforementioned and the Company’s existing resources, there are no current indicators of substantial doubt as previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, and the Company expects to have sufficient resources to meet its existing obligations for the next twelve months and to remain in compliance with its financial covenants.

However, certain of our non-tribal entities are subject to income taxes in various state and local jurisdictions within the United States and in Canada.
Inspire Korea
The initial phase of Inspire Korea primarily consists of an integrated entertainment resort. Design and construction work was temporarily paused in September 2020 while we were in the process of securing the necessary financing for the project, which was completed in November 2021 (see Note 2). During this temporary pause in construction, Inspire Korea obtained approval to modify its development plan and adjust the timing of a future sub-phase of this initial phase of the project.
On December 27, 2021, Inspire Korea elected to terminate a licensing arrangement for a previously-planned sub-phase and discontinue related design work. As a result, we recognized an intangible asset impairment of $12.9 million related to the licensing arrangement and a tangible asset impairment of $17.7 million on the related construction in progress.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2019-12
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies various aspects related to the accounting for income taxes. This new standard removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASU 2019-12 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application.

ASU 2021-10
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, “Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance” (“ASU 2021-10”), which requires business entities to provide certain disclosures about government transactions that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy to other accounting guidance.

Inspire Korea Financing
Inspire Korea Credit Facility
On September 24, 2021, Inspire Korea entered into a loan agreement providing for a loan commitment of up to 1.04 trillion Korean won (“KRW”) in 2 tranches (the “Inspire Korea Credit Facility”), comprised of a 740.0 billion KRW credit facility (the “Tranche A Facility”) and a 300.0 billion KRW credit facility (the “Tranche B Facility”). The Inspire Korea Credit Facility is being used to pay for the construction, operation, financial and other project costs in connection with Inspire Korea (see Note 1). All obligations under the Inspire Korea Credit Facility are secured by liens on substantially all assets of, and equity interests in, Inspire Korea (subject to certain exceptions and limitations). The Inspire Korea Credit Facility matures 48 months after the date of the first draw, which was November 29, 2021.

Mandatory prepayments are required under the Inspire Korea Credit Facility in connection with certain specified asset dispositions or receipt of insurance proceeds, without a prepayment fee. The Inspire Korea Credit Facility may not be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part until one year after the date of the first draw. After such date, any voluntary prepayment requires a prepayment fee as defined in the Inspire Korea Credit Facility agreement.
Loans outstanding under the Tranche A Facility bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.4% per annum or a floating rate equal to the sum of a base rate and an applicable margin (as defined in the Inspire Korea Credit Facility agreement). Loans outstanding under the Tranche B Facility bear interest at a fixed rate of 7.0% per annum or a floating rate equal to the sum of a base rate and

an applicable margin (as defined in the Inspire Korea Credit Facility agreement). The Inspire Korea Credit Facility includes an interest reserve whereby a portion of loan proceeds is reserved for payment of interest. Interest on Tranche A Facility loans is fully reserved and interest on Tranche B Facility loans is reserved for 36 months. If any portion of the Inspire Korea Credit Facility is undrawn, Inspire Korea is required to pay a 0.3% commitment fee on the undrawn amount.
The Inspire Korea Credit Facility contains certain customary covenants applicable to Inspire Korea, including covenants governing: incurrence of indebtedness, incurrence of liens, investments, mergers or consolidations, asset sales, acquisitions of assets, the payment of dividends and other distributions and affiliate transactions. In addition, the Inspire Korea Credit Facility includes other covenants, representations and warranties and events of default that are customary for financing transactions of this type.
In connection with the Inspire Korea Credit Facility, the Company entered into a credit enhancement support agreement to provide up to $100.0 million credit enhancement support for Inspire Korea’s payment of principal, interest and other sums due under the Inspire Korea Credit Facility.

The Company incurred $59.1 million in costs in connection with this transaction during fiscal 2022. These debt issuance costs were reflected as a debt discount and are being amortized over the term of the Inspire Korea Credit Facility using the effective interest method.
MGE Korea Term Loan
On November 4, 2021, MGE Korea Limited (“MGE Korea”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and parent company of Inspire Korea, entered into a $275.0 million secured term loan facility agreement (the “MGE Korea Term Loan”). MGE Korea received funding from the MGE Korea Term Loan on November 24, 2021 (the “Utilisation Date”). The MGE Korea Term Loan was primarily used to make a capital contribution to Inspire Korea in order to partially fund construction-related costs for Inspire Korea. The MGE Korea Term Loan matures 66 months after the Utilisation Date.
The MGE Korea Term Loan bears payment-in-kind interest at a rate of 17.0% per annum, to be compounded and capitalized at the end of each quarter, or paid in cash if so elected by MGE Korea.
If the MGE Korea Term Loan is voluntarily prepaid, if certain mandatory prepayment events are triggered or if it is repaid following a notice of acceleration, MGE Korea must pay a prepayment fee (as defined in the MGE Korea Term Loan agreement). The MGE Korea Term Loan is secured by a fixed charge over 100% of MGE Korea’s share capital and a debenture over the assets of MGE Korea (subject to certain exceptions and limitations).
The MGE Korea Term Loan contains certain customary covenants, including covenants governing: incurrence of indebtedness, incurrence of liens, payment of dividends and other distributions, disposals, acquisitions and investments, arm’s length transactions, mergers and the development and management of Inspire Korea. In addition, the MGE Korea Term Loan includes financial maintenance covenants pertaining to net leverage and debt service coverage of MGE Korea and Inspire Korea, and contains a requirement that Inspire Korea maintain a minimum cash balance in the amounts set forth in the MGE Korea Term Loan. The MGE Korea Term Loan also contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, failure to make payments, breach of covenants and breach of representations.
The Company incurred $10.0 million in costs in connection with the MGE Korea Term Loan during fiscal 2022. These debt issuance costs were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the MGE Korea Term Loan. In addition, the allocation of proceeds to the issuance of warrants and associated put option (see below) resulted in an original issue discount on the MGE Korea Term Loan of $84.8 million, which will also be amortized over the term of the MGE Korea Term Loan using the effective interest method.
MGE Korea Warrant Agreement
In connection with the MGE Korea Term Loan, on November 4, 2021, MGE Korea Holding III Limited (“MGE Korea Holding III”), the parent company of MGE Korea, entered into a warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) to issue detachable warrants (the “Warrants”). The Warrants can be converted into up to a total of 4,400 shares of capital in MGE Korea Holding III at an initial exercise price of $0.01 per share. At the time of issuance, the Warrants represented 22.0% of the fully-diluted share capital of MGE Korea Holding III.
The Warrants are generally exercisable at any time after the third anniversary of the Utilisation Date (November 2024) until the tenth anniversary of the Utilisation Date (November 2031), but may be exercised earlier upon certain triggering events defined in the Warrant Agreement. Upon the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Utilisation Date (November 2031) and (ii) the consummation of an Exit Event (as defined in the Warrant Agreement), all unexercised Warrants will expire.

Warrant holders do not have any rights held by holders of shares in the capital of MGE Korea Holding III to vote or to receive dividends and other distributions (other than as set forth in the Warrant Agreement). Warrant holders and shareholders of MGE Korea Holding III have certain preemptive rights in relation to any proposed issuance of equity securities by MGE Korea Holding III or certain affiliates (as defined in the Warrant Agreement), subject to customary exceptions.
Holders of unexercised Warrants have the right to require the parent of MGE Korea Holding III (the “Parent”) to purchase all of the unexercised Warrants that they hold at certain relevant times (the “Put Option”). In turn, the Parent has the right to require the holders of unexercised Warrants to sell all of the unexercised Warrants they hold at certain relevant times (the “Call Option”). Both the Put Option and the Call Option are exercisable at any time in the period from (and including) the date six years and six months after the Utilisation Date (May 2028) until the tenth anniversary of the Utilisation Date (November 2031). The aggregate cash purchase price for both the Put Option and the Call Option equals the higher of: (i) the fair market value of the relevant unexercised Warrants and (ii) $110.0 million, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of the relevant unexercised Warrants and the denominator of which is the total number of Warrants.
The Warrants and the Put Option are classified as long-term liabilities and are re-measured at their estimated fair values at each reporting date. The estimated fair value of the Warrants and the Put Option was determined by utilizing the income approach (discounted cash flow method) and a binomial lattice model. This valuation approach utilized Level 3 inputs. The primary unobservable inputs utilized were the discount rate, which was 10.5%, and the expected volatility of the underlying stock price, which was 50.0%.
Debt issuance costs incurred during fiscal 2022 and allocated to the Warrants and the Put Option totaling $4.2 million were expensed on the Utilisation Date and recorded within Corporate costs and expenses.

Contract and Contract-related Liabilities
A difference may exist between the timing of cash receipts from patrons and the recognition of revenues, resulting in a contract or contract-related liability. In general, the Company has 3 types of such liabilities: (1) outstanding gaming chips and slot tickets liability, which represents amounts owed in exchange for outstanding gaming chips and slot tickets held by patrons, (2) loyalty points deferred revenue liability and (3) patron advances and other liability, which primarily represents funds deposited in advance by patrons for gaming and advance payments by patrons for goods and services such as advance ticket sales, deposits on rooms and convention space and gift card purchases. These liabilities are generally expected to be recognized as revenues within one year and are recorded within other current liabilities.
The following table summarizes these liabilities (in thousands):

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs utilized to measure fair value into three levels:
Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and
Level 3 - Valuations based on models where the significant inputs are unobservable. The unobservable inputs reflect the Company's estimates or assumptions that market participants would utilize in pricing such assets or liabilities.
The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

New Accounting Standards
The following accounting standards were adopted during the six months ended March 31, 2021:
ASU 2016-13
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurements of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which sets forth a current expected credit loss model requiring a company to measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts. This model replaced the prior incurred loss model and applies to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, as well as certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. Effective October 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
ASU 2018-13
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13,“Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”), which added, amended and removed certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 requires enhanced disclosures on valuation techniques and inputs that a reporting entity uses to determine its measures of fair value, including judgments and assumptions that the entity makes and the uncertainties in the fair value measurements as of the reporting date. Effective October 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2018-13 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statement disclosures.
The following accounting standards will be adopted in future reporting periods:
ASU 2019-12
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies various aspects related to the accounting for income taxes. This new standard removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASU 2019-12 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2019-12 will have on its financial statements, but does not expect its adoption to have a material impact.
ASU 2020-06
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the
11

(unaudited)

accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current guidance. ASU 2020-06 also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2020-06 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures, but does not expect its adoption to have a material impact.


NOTE 2—LEASES:
Lessee
The Company leases real estate and equipment under various operating and finance lease agreements. The leases have terms ranging from approximately one month to 50 years and do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. Rental payments under these lease agreements are fixed and/or variable based on periodic adjustments for inflation, performance, usage or appraised land values. Variable components of lease payments are not included in the calculation of ROU assets and liabilities.
The Company’s lease arrangements contain both lease and non-lease components. For instances in which the Company is a lessee, the Company accounts for both lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for substantially all classes of underlying assets (primarily real estate and equipment). Leases with an expected or initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet and the related lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.

Lessor
The Company leases space at its facilities to third parties. Lease terms for these non-cancelable operating leases range from approximately one month to 21 years. Rental income under these lease agreements is fixed and/or variable based on percentage of tenant sales or periodic adjustments for inflation. Rental income is recorded within hotel and retail, entertainment and other revenues. For instances in which the Company is the lessor, and the class of underlying asset represents retail space, the Company accounts for both the lease and non-lease components, such as common area maintenance and tenant services, as a single lease component. In all other instances, non-lease components are accounted for separately in accordance with applicable guidance, most commonly ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”.

The initial draw under the New Senior Secured Credit Facility, together with proceeds from the 2021 Senior Secured Notes (defined below), was used to (i) prepay all amounts outstanding under the prior Senior Secured Credit Facilities, (ii) prepay all amounts outstanding under the Main Street Term Loan Facility, (iii) repay the Mohegan Tribe Subordinated Loan and (iv) pay related fees and expenses. The New Senior Secured Credit Facility will otherwise be available for general corporate purposes.
The Credit Agreement contains certain customary covenants applicable to the Company and its restricted subsidiaries, including covenants governing: incurrence of indebtedness, incurrence of liens, payment of dividends and other distributions, investments, asset sales, affiliate transactions and mergers or consolidations. Additionally, the Credit Agreement includes financial maintenance covenants pertaining to total leverage, secured leverage and fixed charge coverage, as well as a minimum liquidity covenant. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, failure to make payments, breach of covenants and breach of representations.
Borrowings under the New Senior Secured Credit Facility bear interest as follows: (i) for base rate loans, a base rate equal to the highest of (x) the prime rate, (y) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points and (z) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (the highest of (x), (y) and (z), the “base rate”), plus a leverage-based margin of 100 to 275 basis points; and (ii) for Eurodollar rate loans, the applicable LIBOR rate (subject to a 0.75% LIBOR floor) plus a leverage-based margin of 200 to 375 basis points. The Company is also required to pay a leverage-based undrawn commitment fee on the New Senior Secured Credit Facility of between 37.5 and 50 basis points. Interest on Eurodollar rate loans is payable in arrears at the end of each applicable interest period, but not less frequently than quarterly. Interest on base rate advances is payable quarterly in arrears.
The New Senior Secured Credit Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of Downs Racing, L.P., Backside, L.P., Mill Creek Land, L.P., Northeast Concessions, L.P., Mohegan Commercial Ventures PA, LLC, Mohegan Basketball Club LLC, Mohegan Ventures-Northwest, LLC and Mohegan Golf, LLC (the “Guarantors”; and the Guarantors other than Mohegan Basketball Club LLC, the “Grantors”). The New Senior Secured Credit Facility is secured on a first priority senior secured basis by collateral constituting substantially all of the Company’s and Grantors’ assets. In the future, certain other subsidiaries of the Company may be required to become Guarantors and/or Grantors in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and related loan documents.
Senior Secured Credit Facilities - Non-cash Transactions
    On March 31, 2021 and 2020, the bank that administers the Company's debt service payments for its New Senior Secured Credit Facility and prior Senior Secured Credit Facilities made principal payments on behalf of the Company totaling $3.0 million and $10.5 million, respectively, but did not accordingly debit the Company's bank account for these payments. As of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company reflected these non-cash transactions as reductions to current portion of long-term debt and corresponding increases to other current liabilities. On the respective following banking days, the bank withdrew the payments from the Company's bank account, resulting in reductions to the Company's cash and cash equivalents and other current liabilities.
Line of Credit
On January 26, 2021, in connection with the New Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Company entered into a $25.0 million revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit is coterminous with the New Senior Secured Credit Facility. Pursuant to provisions of the New Senior Secured Credit Facility, under certain circumstances, the Line of Credit may be converted into loans under the New Senior Secured Credit Facility. Each advance accrues interest at a base rate plus a spread. The Line of Credit contains negative covenants and financial maintenance covenants that are substantially the same as those contained in the New Senior Secured Credit Facility.
Main Street Term Loan Facility
On December 1, 2020, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) among the Company, the Mohegan Tribe and Liberty Bank, as lender, in connection with the Main Street Priority Loan Facility established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. The Loan Agreement provided for a senior secured term loan facility (the “Main Street Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million, subject to approval by the Federal Reserve, which was received on December 15, 2020. On December 15, 2020, the Company borrowed the full $50.0 million in principal amount under the Main Street Term Loan Facility. The proceeds from the Main Street Term Loan Facility were used: (i) to fund transaction costs in connection with the Loan Agreement and (ii) for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Main Street Term Loan Facility accrued interest at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 3%, payable quarterly in arrears, and was scheduled to mature on December 1,

On January 26, 2021, the Company issued $1.175 billion in aggregate principal amount of second priority senior secured notes due 2026 (the “2021 Senior Secured Notes”) in a private placement. On the same date, the Company, the Guarantors and the Mohegan Tribe entered into an indenture agreement (the “Indenture”) with U.S. Bank National Association, the trustee for the 2021 Senior Secured Notes.
The 2021 Senior Secured Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and mature on the earlier of February 1, 2026 and the Springing Maturity Date (as defined in the Indenture). Interest on the 2021 Senior Secured Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2021. The 2021 Senior Secured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Guarantors and will be guaranteed by each other restricted subsidiary of the Company that becomes a guarantor in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes. The 2021 Senior Secured Notes are secured on a second priority senior secured basis by collateral constituting substantially all of the Company’s and Grantors’ assets.
Prior to February 1, 2023, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus the “make-whole” premium described in the Indenture. In addition, the Company may, during the twelve-month period commencing on the issue date of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes and during the twelve-month period subsequent to such initial twelve-month period and prior to February 1, 2023, redeem in each such twelve-month period up to 10% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, provided that if the Company does not redeem 10% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes during the initial twelve-month period commencing on the issue date of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes, the Company may, in the subsequent twelve-month period prior to February 1, 2023, redeem the 2021 Senior Secured Notes in an amount that does not exceed 10% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes plus the difference between (i) 10% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of any 2021 Senior Secured Notes redeemed during such initial twelve-month period. On or after February 1, 2023, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2021 Senior Secured Notes at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.
The Indenture contains certain customary covenants, including in respect of the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends or distributions, make certain investments, create liens on assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with another company or sell assets. The Indenture includes customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to make required payments and failure to comply with certain covenants.
The proceeds from the 2021 Senior Secured Notes were used as described above.

In this filing, the words “Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment,” “MGE,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, inclusive of its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires.
We also refer to (i) our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as our “Financial Statements,” (ii) our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as our “Balance Sheets” and (iii) our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (or Loss) as our “Statements of Operations,” where applicable. Note references are to the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1. Financial Statements.
The following discussion and analysis of the financial position and operating results of Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 (the “September 30, 2021 10-K”).
The statements in this discussion regarding our expectations related to our future performance, liquidity and capital resources, and other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements.

See “Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment was established by the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut (the “Mohegan Tribe”) in July 1995. We have the exclusive authority to conduct and regulate gaming activities for the Mohegan Tribe on tribal lands and the non-exclusive authority to conduct such activities elsewhere. The Mohegan Tribe is a sovereign Indian nation with independent legal jurisdiction over its people and land.
We are primarily engaged in the ownership, operation and development of integrated entertainment facilities. We currently own two facilities in the United States and operate five facilities in the United States and Canada. We are also currently developing a facility in South Korea, the Inspire Entertainment Resort located adjacent to the Incheon International Airport (“Inspire Korea”).
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic and the United States federal government declared it a national emergency. The spread of COVID-19 has affected most segments of the global economy, including our operations. In March 2020, we temporarily suspended operations at our properties in the United States and Canada to ensure the health and safety of our employees, guests and the surrounding communities in which we operate, consistent with directives from various governmental bodies. All of our properties in the United States were reopened by July 2020. Our properties in Canada reopened in July 2021, but were temporarily closed again from January 5, 2022 through January 30, 2022 due to a resurgence of COVID-19.
COVID-19 has had a significant impact on our operations, the full extent of which depends on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. Such developments include the following:
the duration of COVID-19 or the extent of any resurgence or variants of COVID-19;
the manner in which our guests, suppliers and other third parties respond to COVID-19, including the perception of safety and health measures we implemented;
new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to contain or treat it;
general economic conditions; and
consumer confidence.
Accordingly, we cannot reasonably estimate the extent to which COVID-19 will further impact our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We could experience other potential adverse impacts as a result of COVID-19, including, but not limited to, charges from further adjustments to the carrying value of our intangible assets, as well as other long-lived asset impairment charges. Actual results may differ materially from our current estimates as the scope of COVID-19 evolves, depending largely, but not exclusively, on the duration and extent of our business disruptions.
16


Discussion of Consolidated Operating Results
The most significant factors and trends that impacted our operating and financial performance were as follows:
full periods of operations at most of our properties;
a return to relatively normal operating conditions at most of our properties;
a temporary resurgence of COVID-19 during January 2022;
higher interest expense; and
impairment charges related to Inspire Korea.

Mohegan Sun
Revenues
Net revenues increased $26.5 million, or 14.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Net revenues increased $112.1 million, or 31.6%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. The growth in net revenues was due to increased non-gaming revenues, combined with higher slot and table game revenues. In general, these results were driven by strong overall business volumes reflecting a return to relatively normal operating conditions compared with the same periods in the prior year, which were negatively impacted by various COVID-19 restrictions. Overall non-gaming revenues also benefited from a full entertainment calendar compared with the same periods in the prior year in which the Mohegan Sun Arena was closed due to COVID-19. Slot revenues increased principally due to higher slot handle, while the growth in table game revenues reflected higher hold percentage. Net revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 were negatively impacted by a temporary resurgence of COVID-19 during January 2022.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses increased $33.6 million, or 24.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Operating costs and expenses increased $84.8 million, or 30.7%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. These increases primarily reflected higher overall operating costs and expenses commensurate with the increases in net revenues and return to relatively normal operating conditions, including increased payroll costs, cost of goods sold, slot win contribution and direct entertainment expenses, as well as higher costs related to utilities and certain other administrative services.
Mohegan Sun Pocono
Revenues
Net revenues increased $9.8 million, or 18.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Net revenues increased $35.9 million, or 39.7%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. The growth in net revenues was primarily due to higher slot revenues driven by increased slot handle, as well as higher non-gaming revenues. In general, these results were driven by strong overall business volumes reflecting a return to relatively normal operating conditions compared to the same periods in the prior year, which were negatively impacted by various COVID-19 restrictions and the temporary closure of Mohegan Sun Pocono from December 12, 2020, through January 3, 2021. Net revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 were negatively impacted by a temporary resurgence of COVID-19 during January 2022.

Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses increased $6.0 million, or 13.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Operating costs and expenses increased $22.0 million, or 26.6%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. These increases primarily reflected higher Pennsylvania slot machine tax expenses driven by the increases in slot revenues, combined with higher overall operating costs and expenses commensurate with the return to relatively normal operating conditions.
MGE Niagara Resorts
Revenues
Net revenues increased $38.4 million, or 278.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Net revenues increased $88.3 million, or 329.2%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. These results reflect relatively full periods of operations compared with the same periods in the prior year. The MGE Niagara Resorts were temporarily closed effective March 18, 2020, following the outbreak of COVID-19, and reopened on July 23, 2021 under various COVID-19 related restrictions. The MGE Niagara Resorts were temporarily closed again from January 5, 2022, through January 30, 2022, due to a resurgence of COVID-19 at that time. Net revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021 primarily reflect fixed service provider fees pursuant to the terms of our Casino Operating and Services Agreement with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses increased $24.4 million, or 97.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Operating costs and expenses increased $54.9 million, or 108.4%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. These increases primarily reflected higher operating costs and expenses commensurate with the growth in net revenues, combined with higher overall costs and expenses associated with relatively full periods of operations.
Management, Development and Other
Revenues
Net revenues decreased $4.7 million, or 23.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Net revenues decreased $4.1 million, or 12.2%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. The declines in net revenues were primarily driven by lower management fees from ilani Casino Resort.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses decreased $8.0 million, or 53.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease in operating costs and expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily reflected lower pre-opening costs and expenses related to Inspire Korea. Operating costs and expenses increased $28.7 million, or 109.9%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. As described in Note 1, the increase in operating costs and expenses for the six months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily driven by $30.5 million in impairment charges related to Inspire Korea.
All Other
Revenues
Net revenues totaled $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net revenues totaled $23.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022.

Net revenues decreased $2.4 million, or 86.1%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year.

Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $9.8 million, or 23.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. Interest expense increased $12.8 million, or 15.1%, for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in the prior year. These increases were partially offset by $5.7 million and $9.7 million in capitalized interest related to the Inspire Korea construction during the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively. The increases in interest expense were due to higher weighted average interest rate and weighted average outstanding debt. See Note 2 for additional information.
Loss on Modification and Early Extinguishment of Debt
Loss on modification and early extinguishment of debt represents transaction costs expensed in connection with our January 2021 refinancing transactions.
Loss on Fair Value Adjustment
Loss on fair value adjustment is driven by changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants and put option related to Inspire Korea. See Note 2 for additional information.
Income Tax
Income tax benefit or provision is primarily driven by taxable losses incurred or taxable income generated by the MGE Niagara Resorts.
Seasonality
The gaming markets in the Northeastern United States and Niagara Falls, Canada, are seasonal in nature, with peak gaming activities often occurring during the months of May through August. Accordingly, our operating results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for other interim periods or an entire fiscal year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, we held cash and cash equivalents of $167.7 million and $149.8 million, respectively, of which MGE Niagara Resorts held $26.8 million and $25.1 million, respectively. As a result of the cash-based nature of our business, operating cash flow levels tend to follow trends in our operating income, excluding the effects of non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization and impairment charges. Inclusive of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing availability, we had $220.8 million of borrowing capacity under our senior secured credit facility and line of credit as of March 31, 2022. In addition, inclusive of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing availability, the MGE Niagara Resorts had $103.7 million of borrowing capacity under the MGE Niagara revolving facility and MGE Niagara swingline facility as of March 31, 2022.
Cash provided by operating activities increased $62.1 million, or 92.4%, to $129.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with $67.2 million in the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was driven by higher net income, after factoring in non-cash items, reflecting a return to relatively normal operating conditions at our properties. See “Discussion of Consolidated Operating Results” for additional information.
20


Cash used in investing activities increased $117.8 million, or 331.6%, to $153.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with $35.5 million in the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily driven by higher capital expenditures related to Inspire Korea.
Cash provided by financing activities totaled $409.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022 compared with cash used in financing activities of $25.0 million in the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily driven by additional borrowings to fund the development of Inspire Korea.
Sufficiency of Resources
We believe that existing cash balances, financing arrangements and operating cash flows will provide us with sufficient resources to meet our existing debt obligations, finance and right-of-use operating lease obligations, distributions to the Mohegan Tribe, capital expenditures and working capital requirements for the next twelve months; however, we can provide no assurance in this regard.     
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Overview
Our Company
We were established in July 1995 by the Mohegan Tribe, a federally-recognized Indian tribe with an approximately 595-acre reservation situated in southeastern Connecticut, adjacent to Uncasville, Connecticut. Under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, federally-recognized Indian tribes are permitted to conduct full-scale casino gaming operations on tribal lands, subject to, among other things, the negotiation of a compact with the affected state. The Mohegan Tribe and the State of Connecticut entered into such a compact, the Mohegan Compact, which was approved by the United States Secretary of the Interior. We were established as an instrumentality of the Mohegan Tribe, with the exclusive authority to conduct and regulate gaming activities for the Mohegan Tribe on tribal lands and the non-exclusive authority to conduct such activities elsewhere. We are governed and overseen by a nine-member Management Board, whose members also comprise the Mohegan Tribal Council, the governing body of the Mohegan Tribe. Any change in the composition of the Mohegan Tribal Council results in a corresponding change in our Management Board.
We are primarily engaged in the ownership, operation and development of integrated entertainment facilities, both domestically and internationally. This ownership, operation and development includes the following: (i) ownership and operation of Mohegan Sun, a gaming and entertainment complex located on an approximately 196-acre site in Uncasville, Connecticut, (ii) ownership and operation of Mohegan Sun Pocono, a gaming and entertainment facility located on an approximately 400-acre site in Plains Township, Pennsylvania, (iii) operation of the Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort, Casino Niagara and the 5,000-seat Niagara Falls Entertainment Centre under a Casino Operating and Services Agreement (the “Casino Operating and Services Agreement”), all in Niagara Falls, Canada (collectively, the “MGE Niagara Resorts”), (iv) development and management of ilani Casino Resort in Clark County, Washington, and development rights to any future development at ilani Casino Resort, (v) management of Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey and ownership of 10% of the casino’s holding company and its subsidiaries, including those conducting or licensing online gaming and retail sports wagering in New Jersey, (vi) management of Paragon Casino Resort in Marksville, Louisiana, (vii) operation of the Mohegan Sun Casino at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas (“Mohegan Sun Las Vegas”) in Las Vegas, Nevada, (viii) development and construction of an integrated resort and casino project to be located adjacent to the Incheon International Airport in South Korea and (ix) development and construction of an integrated resort and casino project to be located near Athens, Greece.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
    In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic and the United States federal government declared it a national emergency. The spread of COVID-19 has affected most segments of the global economy, including our operations. In March 2020, we temporarily suspended operations at our North American owned, operated and managed properties to ensure the health and safety of our employees, guests and the surrounding communities in which we operate, consistent with directives from various government bodies. Following these closures, we reopened our properties as follows: (i) Paragon Casino Resort on May 20, 2020, (ii) ilani Casino Resort on May 28, 2020, (iii) Mohegan Sun on June 1, 2020, (iv) Mohegan Sun Pocono on June 22 2020 and (v) Resorts Casino Hotel on July 2, 2020. Mohegan Sun Pocono was again temporarily closed from December 12, 2020 through January 3, 2021 due to a resurgence of COVID-19 at that time. In addition, Mohegan Sun Las Vegas opened to the public on March 25, 2021 under capacity restrictions due to COVID-19. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the MGE Niagara Resorts remain temporarily closed.
We cannot predict when the MGE Niagara Resorts will be able to reopen or the conditions upon which such reopening may occur, and while our reopened properties have experienced some level of continued business disruption, we expect that these disruptions will gradually dissipate, and remain confident in our ability to mitigate the impact of any such disruption through expense management. The impact of COVID-19 on our operations has been significant, though the full extent of its impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the duration of COVID-19 or the extent of any resurgence of COVID-19, the manner in which our guests, suppliers and other third parties respond to COVID-19, including the perception of safety and health measures taken by us, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to contain or treat it, as well as general economic conditions and consumer confidence. Accordingly, we cannot reasonably estimate the extent to which COVID-19 will further impact our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We could experience other potential adverse impacts as a result of COVID-19, including, but not limited to, charges from further adjustments to the carrying value of our intangible assets, as well as other long-lived asset impairment charges. Actual results may differ materially from our current estimates as the scope of COVID-19 evolves, depending largely, but not exclusively, on the duration and extent of our business disruptions.
In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, we have
22


evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. As further discussed within “Liquidity and Capital Resources”, on January 26, 2021, we (i) entered into a new credit agreement which, among other things, provided for an approximately $262.9 million senior secured revolving credit facility, removed the financial covenants (other than a minimum liquidity covenant) applicable for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2020, modified the financial covenants applicable for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2021 and thereafter and extended the maturity date of the new senior secured revolving credit facility to April 14, 2023 and (ii) issued approximately $1.2 billion of new senior secured notes due February 1, 2026. The proceeds from these transactions were used to refinance certain of our existing indebtedness. Based on the aforementioned and our existing resources, there are no current indicators of substantial doubt as previously disclosed in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, and we expect to have sufficient resources to meet our existing obligations for the next twelve months and to remain in compliance with our financial covenants.

The most significant factors and trends that impacted our operating and financial performance were as follows:
COVID-19 and the resulting temporary closures and capacity restrictions at our properties;
cost saving and expense management initiatives to mitigate the operating and financial impact of COVID-19;
higher management fees earned;
higher interest expense;
an approximately $24 million non-operating loss on modification and early extinguishment of debt principally related to our January 2021 refinancing transactions; and
a $126.6 million impairment charge related to Mohegan Sun Pocono's intangible assets during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Mohegan Sun
Revenues
    Net revenues increased by $6.7 million, or 3.7%, to $189.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $182.3 million in the same period in the prior year. The increase in net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was driven by higher overall gaming revenues which benefited from a full period of operations at Mohegan Sun
23


during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in the prior year. Mohegan Sun temporarily closed, effective March 18, 2020, following the outbreak of COVID-19, and certain portions reopened to the public on June 1, 2020. The increase in gaming revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 also reflected higher slot and table game hold percentages. Net revenues declined by $70.7 million, or 16.6%, to $354.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $425.6 million in the same period in the prior year. The decline in net revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2021 was principally due to overall capacity restrictions at Mohegan Sun driven by COVID-19.

These reductions primarily reflected lower overall operating costs and expenses commensurate with the capacity restrictions at Mohegan Sun, combined with various cost saving and expense management initiatives to mitigate the operating and financial impact of COVID-19.
Mohegan Sun Pocono
Revenues
Net revenues declined by $0.7 million, or 1.3%, to $52.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $53.1 million in the same period in the prior year. Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 reflected higher overall gaming revenues which benefited from strong table game and interactive gaming business. These results were offset by lower non-gaming revenues due to capacity restrictions at Mohegan Sun Pocono driven by COVID-19. Net revenues declined by $24.6 million, or 21.4%, to $90.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $115.1 million in the same period in the prior year. The decline in net revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2021 was principally due to overall capacity restrictions at Mohegan Sun Pocono driven by COVID-19.
Operating Costs and Expenses

These reductions primarily reflected the impact of a $126.6 million impairment charge related to Mohegan Sun Pocono’s various gaming licenses that was recorded in the same periods in the prior year, combined with lower overall operating costs and expenses commensurate with the capacity restrictions at Mohegan Sun Pocono and various cost saving and expense management initiatives to mitigate the operating and financial impact of COVID-19.

These results reflect the temporary closure of the MGE Niagara Resorts, effective March 18, 2020, following the outbreak of COVID-19. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the MGE Niagara Resorts remain temporarily closed. Net revenues for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2021 primarily reflect fixed service provider fees pursuant to the terms of our Casino Operating and Services Agreement with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation.

Operating costs and expenses totaled $50.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $156.6 million in the same period in the prior year. These results reflect reduced overall operating costs and expenses due to the temporary closure of the MGE Niagara Resorts.

in net revenues were due to higher management fees from ilani Casino Resort driven by strong performance at the property, combined with additional revenues from Mohegan Sun Las Vegas, which opened to the public on March 25, 2021.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses increased by $6.9 million, or 87.3%, to $14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $7.9 million in the same period in the prior year. Operating costs and expenses increased by $8.3 million, or 46.6%, to $26.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $17.8 million in the same period in the prior year. The increases in operating costs and expenses were primarily driven by higher pre-opening costs and expenses related to Project Inspire, along with additional operating costs and expenses associated with Mohegan Sun Las Vegas.
Corporate
Revenues
Net revenues totaled $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $0.1 million in the same period in the prior year. Net revenues totaled $2.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $0.2 million in the same period in the prior year. The increases in net revenues were primarily driven by additional revenues generated by our construction group, which managed a construction project at Mohegan Sun on behalf of a third-party.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses increased by $4.5 million, or 80.4%, to $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $5.6 million in the same period in the prior year. Operating costs and expenses increased by $5.1 million, or 39.8%, to $17.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $12.8 million in the same period in the prior year. The increases in operating costs and expenses primarily reflect additional construction related expenses and higher payroll costs.
Other Expenses
Other expenses increased by $31.2 million, or 94.8%, to $64.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $32.9 million in the same period in the prior year. Other expenses increased by $36.9 million, or 54.2%, to $105.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $68.1 million in the same period in the prior year. The increases in other expenses were primarily driven by a loss on modification and early extinguishment of debt in connection with our January 2021 refinancing transactions, combined with higher interest expense, net of capitalized interest.
On January 26, 2021, we completed a series of refinancing transactions, including (i) entering into a new senior secured credit facility, (ii) issuing new senior secured notes, (iii) prepaying our prior senior secured credit facilities, (iv) prepaying our Main Street term loan facility and (v) repaying our Mohegan Tribe subordinated loan. We incurred $24.0 million in costs in connection with these refinancing transactions. Previously deferred debt issuance costs and debt discounts totaling $23.7 million, as well as $0.1 million in new transaction costs were expensed and recorded as a loss on modification and early extinguishment of debt. New debt issuance costs totaling $4.5 million were capitalized as an asset and will be amortized over the term of the related debt. The remaining $19.4 million in new debt issuance costs was reflected as debt discount and will be amortized over the term of the related debt.
Interest expense, net of capitalized interest increased by $11.4 million, or 36.8%, to $42.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $31.0 million in the same period in the prior year. Interest expense, net of capitalized interest increased by $17.9 million, or 27.0%, to $84.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $66.4 million in the same period in the prior year. The increases in interest expense, net of capitalized interest were due to higher weighted average outstanding debt and weighted average interest rate, combined with the impact of the capitalization of interest related to Project Inspire in the same periods in the prior year. Weighted average outstanding debt was $2.13 billion and $2.11 billion for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, compared to $2.06 billion and $2.05 billion for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2020, respectively. Weighted average interest rate was 8.0% for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to 7.0% for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2020.
Seasonality
The gaming markets in the Northeastern United States and Niagara Falls, Canada, are seasonal in nature, with peak gaming activities often occurring during the months of May through August. Accordingly, our operating results for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for other interim periods or an entire fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2020, we held cash and cash equivalents of $127.8 million and $112.7 million, respectively, of which the MGE Niagara Resorts held $12.3 million and $15.1 million, respectively. Inclusive of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing availability, we had $137.7 million of borrowing capacity under our New Senior Secured Credit Facility and line of credit as of March 31, 2021. As a result of the cash based nature of our business, operating cash flow levels tend to follow trends in our operating income, excluding the effects of non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization and impairment charges.
Cash provided by operating activities totaled $67.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to cash used in operating activities of $16.9 million in the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was driven by a significant reduction in working capital requirements, including lower working capital requirements associated with the MGE Niagara Resorts resulting from the continued closure of these facilities due to COVID-19. These results were partially offset by lower net income after factoring in non-cash items.
Cash used in investing activities declined by $32.7 million, or 47.9%, to $35.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $68.2 million in the same period in the prior year. The decline in cash used in investing activities primarily reflected lower capital expenditures, combined with the impact of an investment in Mohegan Hotel Holding, LLC, in the same period in the prior year.
    Cash used in financing activities totaled $25.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $104.6 million in the same period in the prior year. These results reflect the impact of higher borrowings in the same period in the prior year to ensure maximum financial flexibility in response to COVID-19, combined with the payment of transaction costs associated with our January 2021 refinancing transactions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. As of March 31, 2021,2022, our primary exposure to market risk was interest rate risk associated with our credit facilities which accrued interest on the basis of base rate, or Eurodollar rate and Bankers’ Acceptance rate formulas, plus applicable rates, as defined under the credit facilities.
We attempt to manage Based on our interest rate risk through a controlled combination of long-term fixed rate borrowings and variable rate borrowings in accordance with established policies and procedures. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
    The following table presents information about ouroutstanding debt obligations as of March 31, 2021 that were sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table presents principal payments and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. Weighted average variable interest rates were based on implied forward rates in respective yield curves, which should not be considered to be precise indicators of actual future interest rates. Fair values for our debt obligations were based on quoted market prices or prices of similar instruments as of March 31, 2021.
