("GLPI") is a self-administered and self-managed Pennsylvania real estate investment trust ("REIT"). GLPI (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company") was incorporated on February 13, 2013, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Penn National Gaming, Inc. ("Penn"). On November 1, 2013, Penn contributed to GLPI, through a series of internal corporate restructurings, substantially all of the assets and liabilities associated with Penn’s real property interests and real estate development business, as well as the assets and liabilities of Hollywood Casino Baton Rouge and Hollywood Casino Perryville (which are referred to as the "TRS Properties"), and then spun-off GLPI to holders of Penn's common and preferred stock in a tax-free distribution (the "Spin-Off"). The Company elected on its United States ("U.S.") federal income tax return for its taxable year that began on January 1, 2014 to be treated as a REIT and GLPI, together with its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, GLP Holdings, Inc., jointly elected to treat each of GLP Holdings, Inc., Louisiana Casino Cruises, Inc. (d/b/a Hollywood Casino Baton Rouge) and Penn Cecil Maryland, Inc. (d/b/a Hollywood Casino Perryville) as a "taxable REIT subsidiary" ("TRS") effective on the first day of the first taxable year of GLPI as a REIT. </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">As a result of the Spin-Off, GLPI owns substantially all of Penn’s former real property assets (as of consummation of the Spin-Off) and leases back most of those assets to Penn for use by its subsidiaries, under a unitary master lease, a triple-net operating lease with an initial term of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>15 years</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> (expiring October 31, 2028) with no purchase option, followed by </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>four</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> 5-year renewal options (exercisable by Penn) on the same terms and conditions (the "Penn Master Lease"), and GLPI also owns and operates the TRS Properties through an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, GLP Holdings, Inc. In April 2016, the Company acquired substantially all of the real estate assets of Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. ("Pinnacle") for approximately </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$4.8 billion</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. GLPI originally leased these assets back to Pinnacle, under a unitary triple-net lease with an initial term of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>10 years</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> (expiring April 30, 2026) with no purchase option, followed by </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>five</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> 5-year renewal options (exercisable by Pinnacle) on the same terms and conditions (the "Pinnacle Master Lease"). On October 15, 2018, the Company completed its previously announced transactions with Penn, Pinnacle and Boyd Gaming Corporation ("Boyd") to accommodate Penn's acquisition of the majority of Pinnacle's operations, pursuant to a definitive agreement and plan of merger between Penn and Pinnacle, dated December 17, 2017 (the "Penn-Pinnacle Merger"). Concurrent with the Penn-Pinnacle Merger, the Company amended the Pinnacle Master Lease to allow for the sale of the operating assets of Ameristar Casino Hotel Kansas City, Ameristar Casino Resort Spa St. Charles and Belterra Casino Resort from Pinnacle to Boyd (the "Amended Pinnacle Master Lease") and entered into a new unitary triple-net master lease agreement with Boyd (the "Boyd Master Lease") for these properties on terms similar to the Company’s Amended Pinnacle Master Lease. The Boyd Master Lease has an initial term of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>10 years</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> (from the original April 2016 commencement date of the Pinnacle Master Lease and expiring April 30, 2026), with no purchase option, followed by </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>five</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> 5-year renewal options (exercisable by Boyd) on the same terms and conditions. The Company also purchased the real estate assets of Plainridge Park Casino ("Plainridge Park") from Penn for </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$250.0 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, exclusive of transaction fees and taxes and added this property to the Amended Pinnacle Master Lease. The Amended Pinnacle Master Lease was assumed by Penn at the consummation of the Penn-Pinnacle Merger. The Company also entered into a mortgage loan agreement with Boyd in connection with Boyd's acquisition of Belterra Park Gaming & Entertainment Center ("Belterra Park"), whereby the Company loaned Boyd </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$57.7 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> In addition to the acquisition of Plainridge Park described above, on October 1, 2018, the Company closed its previously announced transaction to acquire certain real property assets from Tropicana Entertainment Inc. ("Tropicana") and certain of its affiliates pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Real Estate Purchase Agreement") dated April 15, 2018 between Tropicana and GLP Capital L.P., the operating partnership of GLPI ("GLP Capital"), which was subsequently amended on October 1, 2018 (as amended, the "Amended Real Estate Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Real Estate Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired the real estate assets of Tropicana Atlantic City, Tropicana Evansville, Tropicana Laughlin, Trop Casino Greenville and the Belle of Baton Rouge (the "GLP Assets") from Tropicana for an aggregate cash purchase price of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$964.0 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, exclusive of transaction fees and taxes (the "Tropicana Acquisition"). Concurrent with the Tropicana Acquisition, Eldorado Resorts, Inc. ("Eldorado") acquired the operating assets of these properties from Tropicana pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 15, 2018 by and among Tropicana, GLP Capital, Eldorado and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eldorado (the "Tropicana Merger Agreement") and leased the GLP Assets from the Company pursuant to the terms of a new unitary triple-net master lease with an initial term of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>15 years</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, with no purchase option followed by </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>four</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> successive 5-year renewal periods (exercisable by Eldorado) on the same terms and conditions (the "Eldorado Master Lease"). Additionally, on October 1, 2018, the Company made a mortgage loan to Eldorado in the amount of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$246.0 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> in connection with Eldorado’s acquisition of Lumière Place Casino and Hotel ("Lumière Place") (and together with the Tropicana Acquisition, the "Tropicana Transactions").</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">GLPI’s primary business consists of acquiring, financing, and owning real estate property to be leased to gaming operators in triple-net lease arrangements. As of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">September 30, 2019</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, GLPI’s portfolio consisted of interests in </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>46</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> gaming and related facilities, including the TRS Properties, the real property associated with </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>33</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> gaming and related facilities operated by Penn, the real property associated with </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>6</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> gaming and related facilities operated by Eldorado (including one mortgaged facility), the real property associated with </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>4</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> gaming and related facilities operated by Boyd (including one mortgaged facility) and the real property associated with the Casino Queen in East St. Louis, Illinois. These facilities are geographically diversified across </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>16</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> states and were </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>100%</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> occupied at </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">September 30, 2019</span>. GLPI expects to continue growing its portfolio by pursuing opportunities to acquire additional gaming facilities to lease to gaming operators under prudent terms.
