June 15, 2020 , our wholly-owned subsidiary and operating partnership,GLP Capital, L.P. , amended and restated its master lease withTropicana Entertainment, Inc. (the "Tenant"), datedOctober 1, 2018 (as further amended and modified, the "Caesars Amended and RestatedMaster Lease "), to, (i) extend the initial term of 15 years to 20 years, with renewals of up to an additional 20 years at the option of the Tenant, (ii) remove the variable rent component in its entirety commencing with the third lease year, (iii) in the third lease year increase annual land base rent to approximately$23.6 million and annual building base rent to approximately$62.1 million , (iv) provide fixed escalation percentages that delay the escalation of building base rent until the commencement of the fifth lease year with building base rent increasing annually by 1.25% in the fifth and sixth lease year, 1.75% in the seventh and eight lease years and 2% in the ninth lease year and each lease year thereafter, (v) subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, permit the Tenant to elect to replace the Tropicana Evansville and/or Tropicana Greenville properties under the Caesars Amended and RestatedMaster Lease with one or more ofEldorado Resorts Inc. , (now doing business as Caesars Entertainment Corporation) ("Caesars") properties, namely,Scioto Downs , The Row inReno ,Isle Casino Racing Pompano Park ,Isle Casino Hotel –Black Hawk ,Lady Luck Casino –Black Hawk ,Isle Casino Waterloo ,Isle Casino Bettendorf or Isle ofCapri Casino Boonville , provided that the aggregate value of such new property, individually or collectively, is at least equal to the value of Tropicana Evansville or Tropicana Greenville, as applicable, (vi) permit the Tenant to elect to sell its interest in Belle ofBaton Rouge and sever it from the Caesars Amended and RestatedMaster Lease , subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, and (vii) provide certain relief under the operating, capital expenditure and financial covenants thereunder in the event of facility closures due to pandemics, governmental restrictions and certain other instances of unavoidable delay. The Caesars Amended and RestatedMaster Lease became effective onJuly 23, 2020 when all of the necessary regulatory approvals were received and notice periods were satisfied.
- While authorities have allowed the re-openings of many casinos across the country, subject to safety protocols and capacity constraints, the extent of our tenants’ recovery, given current economic conditions and consumer behavior, remains uncertain. As of

Mitigation Efforts and Anticipated Impact of COVID-19 Outbreak
- On
April 16, 2020 , the Company and certain of its subsidiaries acquired the real property associated with the Tropicana Las Vegas ("Tropicana") from Penn National Gaming, Inc. ("PENN") in exchange for rent credits of$307.5 million , which are to be applied for rent due under the parties’ existing leases for the months of May, June, July, August, October and a portion ofNovember 2020 , assuming the completion of theMorgantown transaction described below. PENN will otherwise be obligated to continue making cash rent payments to GLPI, including cash rent in April (which was received in full), September, November andDecember 2020 . For financial reporting and debt covenant purposes, the Company has included the amounts of non-cash rents earned in net income, FFO, AFFO, and Adjusted EBITDA. Simultaneous with GLPI’s acquisition of the Tropicana, the Company entered into a lease with PENN for the Tropicana with nominal annual rent and PENN will continue to operate the property for two years (subject to three one-year extensions at GLPI’s option) or until the Tropicana is sold, whichever is earlier. The lease is a triple net lease relieving the Company from carrying and other costs at the property during the lease term.
- Subject to receipt of required regulatory approval, the Company expects to complete the acquisition from PENN of the land under its gaming facility under construction in
Morgantown, Pennsylvania in exchange for$30.0 million in rent credits. GLPI and PENN also intend to enter into a lease for theMorgantown land which is expected to generate$3.0 million of initial annual cash rent for GLPI.
- The Company granted PENN the exclusive right until
December 31, 2020 to purchase the operations of the Company'sHollywood Casino Perryville , inPerryville, Maryland , for$31.1 million , with the closing of such purchase, provided PENN exercises its option and subject to regulatory approvals, expected to occur during calendar year 2021 on a date selected by PENN with reasonable prior notice to the Company, unless otherwise agreed upon by both parties. Upon closing, the Company will lease the real estate of thePerryville facility to PENN pursuant to a lease providing for initial annual rent of$7.77 million , subject to escalation provisions.
- PENN plans to exercise the next scheduled five-year renewal option under each of its two master leases with the Company. The terms of the master lease covering PENN’s
Hollywood Casino at Penn National Racecourse, located inGrantville, Pennsylvania , is expected to be amended to provide the Company with protection from any adverse impact on the lease escalation provisions resulting from decreased net revenues from such facility upon the openings of PENN's Category 4 facilities. The Company also granted PENN the option to exercise an additional five-year renewal term at the end of the lease term for each of the two master leases, subject to certain regulatory approvals.
- The transactions with PENN are expected to generate incremental value both through the realization of the underlying value of the real estate in
Las Vegas at a future date as well as the yield on theMorgantown lease. The series of transactions with PENN has provided GLPI with greater visibility on intermediate-term rental income through the application of non-cash rent credits while providing PENN significantly greater liquidity to transition back to normalized operations as the economy strengthens.
- In light of the nationwide casino closures experienced this year, the Company does not expect any rent escalators for 2020. The Company's leases contain variable rent which is reset on varying schedules depending on the lease. In the aggregate, the portion of cash rents that are variable represented approximately 16% of our 2019 full year cash rental income. Of that 16% variable rent, approximately 27% resets every five years which is associated with the Company's master lease with PENN (the "PENN Master Lease") and the
Casino Queen Master Lease , 42% resets every two years and 31% resets monthly which is associated with the PENN Master Lease (of which approximately 47% is subject to a floor or$22.9 million annually forHollywood Casino Toledo ). The percentage rent in the Penn Master Lease declined by$6.6 million and$7.9 million for the three-month and six-month period endedJune 30, 2020 compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year due to the temporary closures ofHollywood Casino Columbus and to a lesser extent,Hollywood Casino Toledo frommid-March 2020 toJune 19, 2020 .
- The variable rent resets in the Boyd Gaming Corporation Master Lease and the Amended Pinnacle Master Lease reset for the two-year period ended
April 30, 2020 . As a result, reductions of$1.5 million and$5.0 million , respectively, were incurred in annual variable rent on these respective leases throughApril 30, 2022 . The Meadows Lease variable rent reset occurs inOctober 2020 . As such, we expect that the variable rent resets will be impacted by the casino closures as well as the properties’ post re-opening performance.
Dividend
On
The Company expects the dividend to be a taxable dividend to shareholders, regardless of whether a particular shareholder received the dividend in the form of cash or shares. The Company reserves the right to pay future dividends entirely in cash, and the composition of future dividends with respect to cash and stock will be made by the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis.
Portfolio Update
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

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
FFO, FFO per diluted common share, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI, which are detailed in the reconciliation tables that accompany this release, are used by the Company as performance measures for benchmarking against the Company’s peers and as internal measures of business operating performance, which is used for a bonus metric. The Company believes FFO, FFO per diluted common share, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI provide a meaningful perspective of the underlying operating performance of the Company’s current business. This is especially true since these measures exclude real estate depreciation and we believe that real estate values fluctuate based on market conditions rather than depreciating in value ratably on a straight-line basis over time. Cash NOI is rental and other property income, inclusive of rent credits recognized in connection with the Tropicana Las Vegas transaction less cash property level expenses. Cash NOI excludes depreciation, the amortization of land rights, real estate general and administrative expenses, other non-routine costs and the impact of certain generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) adjustments to rental revenue, such as straight-line rent adjustments and non-cash ground lease income and expense. It is management's view that Cash NOI is a performance measure used to evaluate the operating performance of the Company’s real estate operations and provides investors relevant and useful information because it reflects only income and operating expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents them on an unleveraged basis.
FFO, FFO per diluted common share, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI are non-GAAP financial measures, that are considered supplemental measures for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding (gains) or losses from sales of property and real estate depreciation. We have defined AFFO as FFO excluding stock based compensation expense, the amortization of debt issuance costs, bond premiums and original issuance discounts, other depreciation, the amortization of land rights, straight-line rent adjustments, losses on debt extinguishment, and loan impairment charges reduced by capital maintenance expenditures. We have defined Adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding interest, taxes on income, depreciation, (gains) or losses from sales of property, stock based compensation expense, straight-line rent adjustments, the amortization of land rights, losses on debt extinguishment and loan impairment charges. For financial reporting and debt covenant purposes, the Company includes the amounts of non-cash rents earned in FFO, AFFO, and Adjusted EBITDA. Finally, we have defined Cash NOI as Adjusted EBITDA for the REIT excluding real estate general and administrative expenses and including stock based compensation expense and (gains) or losses from sales of property.
FFO, FFO per diluted common share, AFFO, AFFO per diluted common share, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI are not recognized terms under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures: (i) do not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (iii) are not alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. In addition, these measures should not be viewed as an indication of our ability to fund all of our cash needs, including to make cash distributions to our shareholders, to fund capital improvements, or to make interest payments on our indebtedness. Investors are also cautioned that FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash NOI, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other real estate companies, including REITs due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. Our presentation of these measures does not replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP.
