The Company is involved in litigation with Louis Cappelli, Concord Associates, L.P. and certain of their affiliates regarding the Sullivan County planned casino and resort development. On June 7, 2011, affiliates of Louis Cappelli, Concord Associates, L.P., Concord Resort, LLC and Concord Kiamesha LLC (the Cappelli Group), filed a complaint with the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Sullivan, against a subsidiary of the Company seeking (i) a declaratory judgment on certain of the subsidiary's obligations under a previously disclosed settlement agreement involving these entities, (ii) an order that the Company subsidiary execute the golf course lease and the “Racino Parcel” lease subject to the settlement agreement, and (iii) an extension of the restrictive covenant against ownership or operation of a casino on the Concord resort property under the settlement agreement, which covenant was set to expire on December 31, 2011. The Company subsidiaries filed counterclaims seeking related relief. The Cappelli Group subsequently obtained leave to discontinue its claims, but the counterclaims remain pending.On October 20, 2011, the Cappelli Group filed a complaint with the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Westchester against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries alleging breach of contract and breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing with respect to a casino development agreement relating to a planned casino and resort development in Sullivan County, New York. Plaintiffs are seeking specific performance with respect to such agreement and money damages of $800.0 million, plus interest and attorneys' fees. On March 7, 2012, Concord Associates, L.P. and seven other companies affiliated with Mr. Cappelli and Concord Associates, L.P. filed a new complaint against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as well as Empire Resorts, Inc. and its subsidiary Monticiello Raceway Management, Inc. (collectively, Empire), in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the District Court). On June 25, 2012, an amended complaint was served against the same parties as well as Kien Huat Realty III Limited and Genting New York, LLC (collectively, Genting). The amended complaint alleged unlawful restraint of trade, conspiracy to monopolize and unlawful monopolization, against the Company, Empire and Genting as well as tortious interference against Empire and Genting, in relation to a proposed development transaction on the same Sullivan County, New York resort property. Plaintiffs sought damages of $1.5 billion, plus interest and attorneys' fees. On September 18, 2013, the District Court dismissed plaintiffs’ federal antitrust claims against all defendants with prejudice, and dismissed the pendent state law claims against Empire and Genting without prejudice, meaning they could be further pursued in state court. The plaintiffs have filed a motion for reconsideration with the District Court, seeking permission to file a Second Amended Complaint, and also have filed a Notice of Appeal. The Company has not determined that losses related to these matters are probable. Because of the favorable ruling from the District Court and the pending appeal, together with the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation generally, the Company does not have sufficient information to determine the amount or range of reasonably possible loss with respect to these matters. The Company's assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause the Company to change those estimates and assumptions. The Company intends to vigorously defend the claims asserted against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries by the Cappelli Group and its affiliates, for which the Company believes it has meritorious defenses, but there can be no assurances as to its outcome.
