The agreement also included a clause for PNG to enter into a lease with the owner of the casino property, Gaming and Leisure Properties (GLPI), for the real estate assets associated with the casino facility. Under the deal, annual rent is set at approximately $7.8m.

The transaction is expected to close in mid-2021.
