Item 1.01 — Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 12, 2010, Kansas Entertainment, LLC (“Kansas Entertainment”), a 50/50 joint venture of Kansas Speedway Development Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of International Speedway Corporation (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ICSA; OTC: ICSB) and Penn Hollywood Kansas, Inc., a subsidiary of Penn National Gaming, Inc. (“Penn”), received the final approval under the Kansas Expanded Lottery Act, along with its gaming license from the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission, to proceed with the development of a Hollywood-themed destination casino overlooking Turn 2 at Kansas Speedway (the “Facility”).
In 2009, the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas (the “Unified Government”) endorsed the project and Kansas Entertainment, which had negotiated a proposed management agreement with the Kansas Lottery Commission (the “Management Agreement”). The Management Agreement was subsequently approved by the Lottery Gaming Facility Review Board and the Management Agreement, and the obligations under the agreement, became effective upon the receipt of the final approval and the issuance of the license. The Management Agreement, which has a 15-year term commencing upon public opening, establishes the ownership of Facility assets and provides, among other things, for Kansas Entertainment’s management obligations, the compensation due to Kansas Entertainment for its management services and contains certain construction commitments.
In addition to the Management Agreement, Kansas Entertainment is a party to a Development Agreement with the Unified Government (the “Development Agreement”) that is coterminous with the Management Agreement. The Development Agreement provides for the development of the Facility, certain construction commitments, including alternatives for future construction phases, and certain local charitable commitments. The first phase of the Facility is budgeted at approximately $386 million for the construction of a 100,000-square-foot casino floor with capacity for 2,300 slot machines and 86 table games, a high-energy lounge and a variety of dining and entertainment options. Following completion of the first phase, Kansas Entertainment’s plans also include additional phases for the development of a hotel, expanded gaming space, a spa, convention center and an entertainment retail district, subject to market demands. Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture with ISC, Kansas Speedway Development Corporation contributed 101 acres at Kansas Speedway for the development of the Facility. The Company and Penn will equally share the full project development costs and Penn may under certain circumstances provide financing for the project.
