Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On April 25, 2016, ALST Casino Holdco, LLC’s (the “Company”) wholly-owned subsidiary, Aliante Gaming, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Aliante Gaming” and with the Company, the “Loan Parties”), as borrower, entered into a Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”), as administrative agent and lender, providing for a secured revolving loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million (the “Revolving Loan Facility”). The Company guaranteed the Revolving Loan Facility. The Revolving Loan Facility provides for three options to increase the principal amount of the Revolving Loan Facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20,000,000. The Revolving Loan Facility will mature on April 24, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”) and interest will accrue at (i) LIBOR or (ii) a base rate, plus a margin based on the Loan Parties’ total leverage ratio. Aliante Gaming borrowed the full $50.0 million under the Revolving Loan Facility on April 25, 2016. The Revolving Loan Facility requires Aliante Gaming to make quarterly interest payments on any base rate loan and make interest payments at the end of any applicable 3 month or 6 month interest period for any LIBOR loan. The Revolving Loan Facility shall be subject to mandatory quarterly reduction in revolving loan commitments commencing June 30, 2017 and at the end of each calendar quarter thereafter. All outstanding principal and interest will be due on the Maturity Date.

The proceeds of the Revolving Loan Facility were principally used to refinance existing indebtedness, as described further above under Item 1.02 and to pay fees, commissions and expenses incurred in connection with the Revolving Loan Facility and other general business purposes of the Company.

The Revolving Loan Facility contains customary events of default and covenants, including a financial covenant that requires the Borrower to (a) maintain a leverage ratio (defined in the Credit Agreement) of at least (i) 4.00:1.00 until June 29, 2017, (ii) 3.75:1.00 from June 30, 2017 to June 29, 2018 (iii) 3.50:1.00 from June 30, 2018 to June29, 2019, (iv) 3.00:1.00 from June 30, 2019 to June 29, 2020 (v) 2.50:1.00 from June 30, 2020 to June 29, 2021, and (vi) 2.00:1.00 from June 30, 2021, (b) have a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter of not less than 1.05:1.00 and (c) a minimum adjusted EBITDA of the Loan Parties at the end of any fiscal quarter of not less than $12.0 million. The Company’s obligations to the Lender are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets.

The foregoing description of the Revolving Loan Facility is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Credit Agreement, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1.

Item 1.02.
