Golden Nugget is offering a $1.85 billion seven-year loan to investors, according to Bloomberg. The company also plans to issue a $1.85 billion secured bond and an additional unsecured bond of the same size. Along with a new revolving credit facility, proceeds from the offerings will be used to refinance existing debt.

On Monday, Vice Chancellor Lori Will of the Delaware Chancery Court declined to drop claims accusing Klein and the SPAC’s other board members of illegally preventing shareholders from selling their shares back to the SPAC before the October 2020 merger.
