As previously disclosed, on March 2, 2009, Station Casinos, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a forbearance agreement (the “Note Forbearance Agreement”) with the holders (the “Holders”) of a majority in principal amount of each of the 6% Senior Notes due 2012 (the “2012 Senior Notes”), 7¾% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “2016 Senior Notes”), 6½% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the “2014 Subordinated Notes”), 67/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 (the “2016 Subordinated Notes”) and 65/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 (the “2018 Subordinated Notes” and, together with the 2012 Senior Notes, the 2016 Senior Notes, the 2014 Subordinated Notes and the 2016 Subordinated Notes, the “Notes”).  In addition, on March 2, 2009, the Company also entered into a forbearance agreement with the lenders (the “Lenders”) holding a majority in principal amount of the loans and commitments under its Credit Agreement dated as of November 7, 2007 (the “Credit Forbearance Agreement” and together with the Note Forbearance Agreement, the “Forbearance Agreements” and, individually, each a “Forbearance Agreement”).

 

On April 14, 2009, the Company and the Holders entered into an Amendment to Forbearance Agreement (the “Amendment to the Note Forbearance Agreement”), pursuant to which the Holders agreed to extend the “Forbearance Period” from April 15, 2009 to May 15, 2009.

 

On April 14, 2009, the Company and the Lenders also entered into a First Amendment to Forbearance Agreement (the “Amendment to Credit Forbearance Agreement”, together with the Amendment to the Note Forbearance Agreement, the “Amendment to Forbearance Agreements” and, individually, each an “Amendment to Forbearance Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to, among other things, (a) extend the forbearance period for the Company from April 15, 2009 to May 15, 2009, and (b) modify the termination events for guarantor forbearance.

 

The Company said that the extended forbearance period will permit it to continue ongoing discussions regarding the terms of its restructuring with the Lenders and the holders of its Notes.
