Sixth Amending Agreement to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement among Magna Entertainment Corp., Guarantors, and Bank of Montreal (December 22, 2006)

Summary

This agreement, dated December 22, 2006, is between Magna Entertainment Corp. (the borrower), certain guarantors, and Bank of Montreal (as lender and agent). It amends a prior credit agreement by increasing the maximum loan commitment to $40 million, extending the loan's maturity date to March 30, 2007, and updating certain financial covenants. The agreement also confirms the ongoing guarantees and security interests of most guarantors, while releasing one guarantor from its obligations. The lender consents to a related increase in a separate construction loan for Gulfstream Park.
