Penn National's $5.82 billion takeover is off
By DEBORAH YAO Associated Press
Published: Jul 04, 2008

PHILADELPHIA - Two investment firms pulled the plug Thursday on their $5.82 billion acquisition of Penn National Gaming Inc. after the racetrack and casino operator's stock price tumbled.

But they will pay for pulling out. Penn National will get $225 million in cash as a termination fee, plus $1.25 billion in what amounts to no-cost capital until 2015.

Penn National Gaming this year has been pursuing two possible development sites in Atlantic City. The city government is considering rezoning land along Route 30 for casino use in response to Penn National interest, and the company also has offered $800 million to buy Bader Field, the resort's largest tract of undeveloped land.

Penn National officials weren't available Thursday to comment on whether the failed buyout would affect its Atlantic City ambitions. More
