7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification of the Underwriters. The Companies and the Guarantor jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted as such expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act (a “road show”) or any Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Companies in writing by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

(b) Indemnification of the Companies and the Guarantor. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Companies, the Guarantor, each of their respective directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Companies or the Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section

-21-

20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Companies in writing by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any Pricing Disclosure Package, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following paragraphs in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the third paragraph, the second sentence of the fifth paragraph and the eighth paragraph under the heading “Underwriting”.

(c) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Underwriter shall be designated in writing by the Representatives and any such separate firm for the Companies, the Guarantor, their respective directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Companies and the Guarantor shall be designated in writing by the Companies and the Guarantor. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request, (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance

-22-

with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such Indemnifying Person shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 45 days prior to such settlement being entered into. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Companies and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Companies and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Companies and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Companies from the sale of the Securities and the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters in connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Companies and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Companies or the Guarantor or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) Limitation on Liability. The Companies, the Guarantor and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if the amount of such contribution pursuant to paragraph (d) above were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (d) and (e), in no event shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to paragraphs (d) and (e) are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

-23-

(f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

8. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

9. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the Operating Partnership, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and on or prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited by either of the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Companies or the Guarantor shall have been suspended on any such exchanges or in any over-the-counter market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities on the Closing Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

10. Defaulting Underwriter.

(a) If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the Securities of a series that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities of the applicable series by other persons satisfactory to the Companies on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities of the applicable series, then the Companies shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Securities of the applicable series on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of such series of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Companies may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Companies or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Companies agree to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this Section 10, purchases Securities of the applicable series that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a series of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Companies as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities of the applicable series that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities of the applicable series, then the Companies shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of Securities of the applicable series that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder plus such Underwriter’s pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities of the applicable series that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of the applicable series of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.

-24-

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a series of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Companies as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities of the applicable series that remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities of the applicable series, or if the Companies shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of the Companies or the Guarantor, except that the Companies and the Guarantor will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 11 hereof and except that the provisions of Section 7 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Companies, the Guarantor or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by its default.

11. Payment of Expenses.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Companies and the Guarantor, jointly and severally, agree to pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of their obligations hereunder, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Securities and any taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (including all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the fees and expenses of the Companies’ and the Guarantor’s counsel and the Companies’ and the Guarantor’s independent accountants; (iv) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration or qualification and determination of eligibility for investment of the Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and the preparation, printing and distribution of a “blue sky” memorandum (including the related reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters); (v) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Securities; (vi) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any paying agent (including related fees and expenses of any counsel to such parties); (vii) all expenses and application fees incurred in connection with the approval of the Notes for book-entry transfer by DTC; (vii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, including the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Trustee in connection with the Indenture, the Twelfth Supplemental Indenture and the Securities, (ix) [reserved] and (x) all expenses incurred by the Companies and the Guarantor in connection with any “road show” presentation to potential investors provided that private aircraft travel expenses incurred in connection with such “road show” and other meetings shall be allocated 50% to the Companies and the Guarantor, on one hand, and 50% to the Underwriters on the other hand, and the Companies and the Guarantor on one hand, and the Underwriters in the aggregate (but severally as to their portion) on the other hand, shall each pay their own expenses for all other travel expenses. Except as provided in Section 7 and in this Section 11, the Underwriters shall pay their own expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel.

(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9, (ii) the Companies for any reason fail to tender the Securities for delivery to the Underwriters (other than solely by reason of a default by the Underwriters of their obligations hereunder after all conditions hereunder have been satisfied in accordance herewith), or (iii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Companies and the Guarantor jointly and severally agree to reimburse the Underwriters (other than a defaulting underwriter) for all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby.

-25-

12. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and any controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, the officers and directors of the Companies and the Guarantor referred to herein, and the officers, directors and affiliates of each Underwriter referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

13. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Companies, the Guarantor, and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Companies, the Guarantor or the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Securities and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Companies, the Guarantor or the Underwriters.

14. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City and (c) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

Re: Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration Nos. 333-266814, 333-266814-01 and 333-266814-02)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Re: Securities Registered under Registration Statement on Form S-3

We have acted as counsel to you in connection with your filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-266814, 333-266814-01 and 333-266814-02) (as amended or supplemented, the “Registration Statement”) filed on August 12, 2022 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration of the offer of, among other securities, (i) debt securities (the “Debt Securities”) of GLP Capital, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), a Pennsylvania limited partnership, and GLP Financing II, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with the Operating Partnership, the “Issuers”) and (ii) the guarantee of the Debt Securities (the “Guarantee”) by Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Guarantor”). The Registration Statement became effective upon filing with the Commission on August 12, 2022.

Reference is made to our opinion letter dated August 12, 2022 and included as Exhibit 5.2 to the Registration Statement. We are delivering this supplemental opinion letter in connection with the prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”) filed on November 15, 2023 by the Issuers and the Guarantor with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act. The Prospectus Supplement relates to the offering by the Issuers of $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities in the form of 6.750% senior notes due 2033 (the “Notes”) and the Guarantee of the Notes by the Guarantor (the “Note Guarantee”).

The Notes and the Note Guarantee are being sold to the several underwriters named in, and pursuant to, an underwriting agreement dated November 15, 2023, by and among the Issuers, the Guarantor and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citizens JMP Securities, LLC, Fifth Third Securities, Inc. and Truist Securities, Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters (the “Underwriting Agreement”).

We have reviewed such documents and made such examination of law as we have deemed appropriate to give the opinions set forth below. We have relied, without independent verification, on certificates of public officials and, as to matters of fact material to the opinions set forth below, on certificates of officers of the Issuers and the Guarantor.

We refer to the Twelfth Supplemental Indenture, which is anticipated to be dated on or about November 22, 2023 and entered into by the Issuers, the Guarantor and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), establishing the terms of the Notes and the Note Guarantee, in a form consistent with that authorized by the Issuers and the Guarantor (the “Twelfth Supplemental Indenture”). The Twelfth Supplemental Indenture will amend and supplement the Indenture, dated as of October 30, 2013, by and among the Issuers, the Guarantor and the Trustee (the “Base Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 28, 2016, by and among the Issuers, the Guarantor and the Trustee (together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). We refer to the Indenture, as amended and supplemented by the Twelfth Supplemental Indenture as the “Notes Indenture”.

We refer to the Notes Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantee as the “Subject Documents”.

In our examination of the Subject Documents and other documents relevant to the opinions set forth below, we have assumed, without independent verification, (i) the genuineness of all signatures, (ii) the legal capacity of all natural

persons, (iii) the authenticity and completeness of all Subject Documents submitted to us as originals, (iv) the conformity to originals of any Subject Documents submitted to us as copies or by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission and (v) the truth, accuracy and completeness of information, representations and warranties contained in the Subject Documents. We have also assumed the validity and constitutionality of each relevant statute, rule, regulation and action by governmental agencies covered by this opinion letter, unless a reported decision of a court in the relevant jurisdiction has held otherwise.

The opinions set forth below are limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the law of New York.

We have assumed that each of the Guarantor and the Operating Partnership, which are not formed in Delaware, is validly existing and good standing and has duly authorized, executed and delivered its Note Guarantee and the Indenture under the law of the jurisdiction under whose law it was formed. These matters are addressed in the opinion letter of Holland & Knight LLP, which has been separately provided to you.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the additional qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following additional qualifications:

This opinion letter and the opinions it contains shall be interpreted in accordance with the Core Opinion Principles as published in 74 Business Lawyer 815 (Summer 2019).

We hereby consent to the inclusion of this opinion as Exhibit 5.2 to the Guarantor’s Current Report on Form-8-K, dated November 20, 2023, which is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and to the references to our firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Registration Statement. In giving our consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

Very truly yours,
