Item 5. Other Events. |
On June 24, 2003, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC (the Company), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wynn Resorts, Limited, entered into an interest rate swap agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank (JPMorgan Chase) to hedge a portion of the underlying interest risk on future borrowings under the Companys existing credit facility. Pursuant to the hedge agreement, the Company will pay to JPMorgan Chase a fixed interest rate of approximately 2.69% on borrowings estimated to be incurred periodically under the Companys existing credit facility up to a maximum of $500,000,000, in exchange for payments from JPMorgan Chase on the same amounts at a variable interest rate based on the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) at the time of payment. The term of the agreement is October 26, 2004 through December 26, 2006. |
As reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Wynn Resorts, Limited on June 5, 2003, the Company has previously entered into a similar hedge agreement with JPMorgan Chase with respect to another $325,000,000 of estimated borrowings under the credit facility. As a result of these hedge agreements, the Company has effectively hedged the underlying interest risk of $825.0 million of the $1.0 billion of available borrowings under the credit facility. The Companys credit facility currently anticipates annual interest charges on outstanding borrowings at LIBOR plus 4% on revolving loans and plus 5.5% on term loans. The Company currently has no amounts outstanding under its existing credit facility. The Company cannot predict with certainty that its actual borrowings under the credit facility will match, in timing or amount, the estimated borrowings upon which the hedge arrangements are based. |
