Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On
April 15, 2010, MGM MIRAGE (the Company), a Delaware
corporation, entered into a purchase
agreement for the sale of $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of its 4.25% convertible
senior notes due 2015 (the Notes) in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers in
reliance on an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
Securities Act). The Company has granted to the initial
purchasers an option to purchase up to $150 million in
aggregate principal amount of additional Notes to cover over-allotments, if any. The Notes will be the Companys senior unsecured obligations, guaranteed by
substantially all of the Companys wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, which also guarantee the
Companys other senior indebtedness, and equal in right of payment with, or senior to, all existing
or future unsecured indebtedness of the Company and each guarantor. The Notes will be issued
pursuant to an indenture among the Company, the guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association,
as trustee, to be entered into in connection with the closing of the offering, which is expected to
occur on April 20, 2010, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The Notes will pay interest semi-annually at a rate of 4.25% per annum and mature on April
15, 2015. The Notes will be convertible at an initial conversion rate of approximately 53.83 shares of the
Companys common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, representing an initial conversion
price of approximately $18.58 per share of the Companys common stock and a conversion premium of
27.5% based
on the last reported sale price per share of the Companys common stock on the New
York Stock Exchange on April 15, 2010 of $14.57 per share. The initial conversion rate is
subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The Notes will be convertible into shares of
the Companys common stock at any time prior to the close of
business on the third scheduled
trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the Notes.
The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $975.6
million (or approximately $1.12 billion if the initial purchasers exercise in full their option to
purchase additional Notes) after payment of the initial purchasers discounts and offering
expenses.
The
Notes, and any shares of the Companys common stock issuable
upon conversion of the Notes, have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities law and
may not be offered or sold in the United States or to any U.S. persons absent registration under
the Securities Act, or pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject
to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The
Company is offering and selling the Notes to the initial purchasers in reliance upon the exemption from
registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and
any shares of the Companys common stock issued upon
conversion of the Notes will also be issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration
provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. The
Notes, and any shares of the Companys common stock issuable
upon conversion of the Notes, will be offered by the initial purchasers only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule
144A of the Securities Act.
