Summary

On June 27, 2025, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. (KBCM) successfully closed the syndication of $350 million Senior Secured Credit Facilities for Tule River Tribe Gaming Authority, an instrumentality of the Tule River Indian Tribe. The Credit Facilities include a $100 million Revolver, $100 million Term Loan and $150 million Delayed Draw Term Loan, which will refinance existing indebtedness and fund construction of the Tribe’s Eagle Mountain Casino ~$280 million expansion project. KBCM acted as Left Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner, and Administrative Agent.

This transaction represents KBCM’s second left lead syndicated transaction with Tule River Tribe Gaming Authority.
