The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal
Nation of Connecticut continues to renegotiate more than $2 billion in casino debt.
The tribe entered into a forbearance agreement with its lenders. The agreement runs until January 20, 2010, giving the tribe more time to renegotiate debt without punitive action.
The tribe reportedly owes as much as $2.3 billion related to the financing of Foxwoods Resort Casino and MGM Grand at Foxwoods.
Slot machine revenues have fallen over the past year as the economy fell into recession.
