ITEM 8.01
|
EXPIRATION OF OPTION AGREEMENT.
|
On
December 24, 2008, the Company filed a Form 8-K announcing that its wholly owned subsidiary, Sahara Las Vegas Corp. (SLVC) entered into an Option Agreement with Las Vegas Towers, LLC (LVT), a Delaware limited liability
company, in which SLVC granted LVT an option to purchase SLVCs approximately 27-acre parcel of land, located on Las Vegas Boulevard South in Las Vegas Nevada, for a purchase price of Six Hundred Eighteen Million Ten Thousand Dollars
($618,010,000). Simultaneous with the execution of the Option Agreement, SLVC executed a Contingent Warrant (the Warrant) to purchase Series A Preferred Stock (the Preferred Stock), entitling LVT to purchase 60,000 shares of
SLVC Preferred Stock on terms and conditions set forth in the Warrant.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Option Agreement and Warrant, had
LVT exercised the Warrant prior to its expiration on April 1, 2009, then the Option Agreement would have remained valid until March 31, 2010. However, LVT elected not to exercise the Warrant before it expired, and therefore the Option
Agreement expired under its own terms on March 31, 2009.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
