MGM GROWTH PROPERTIES LLC AND MGM GROWTH PROPERTIES OPERATING

PARTNERSHIP LP CONDENSED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL

STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — BUSINESS

Organization. MGM Growth Properties LLC (“MGP” or the “Company”) is a limited liability company that was organized in Delaware in October 2015. MGP conducts its operations through MGM Growth Properties Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership that was formed in January 2016 and became a subsidiary of MGP in April 2016. The Company elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2016.

MGP is a publicly traded REIT primarily engaged through its investment in the Operating Partnership which owns, acquires, leases and invests in large-scale destination entertainment and leisure properties, whose tenants generally offer casino gaming, hotel, convention, dining, entertainment and retail and other amenities. A wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership leases its real estate properties back to a wholly owned subsidiary of MGM under a master lease agreement (the “MGM-MGP Master Lease”). In February 2020, the Operating Partnership entered into certain transactions to form a venture owned 50.1% by the Operating Partnership and 49.9% by a subsidiary of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“BREIT”, such venture, the “MGP BREIT Venture”), which owns the real estate assets of MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay and leases such real estate properties back to a wholly owned subsidiary of MGM under a master lease agreement (the “MGP BREIT Venture lease”, such formation transaction, the “MGP BREIT Venture Transaction”).

As of September 30, 2021, there were approximately 268.0 million Operating Partnership units outstanding in the Operating Partnership, of which MGM owned approximately 111.4 million, or 41.6%, and MGP owned the remaining 58.4%. MGM’s Operating Partnership units are exchangeable into Class A shares of MGP on a one-to-one basis, or cash at the Fair Market Value of a Class A share (as defined in the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement). The determination of settlement method is at the option of MGP’s independent conflicts committee. MGM’s indirect ownership of these Operating Partnership units is recognized as a noncontrolling interest in MGP’s financial statements. A wholly owned subsidiary of MGP is the general partner of the Operating Partnership and operates and controls all of its business affairs. As a result, MGP consolidates the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. MGM also has ownership of MGP’s outstanding Class B share. The Class B share is a non-economic interest in MGP which does not provide its holder any rights to profits or losses or any rights to receive distributions from the operations of MGP or upon liquidation or winding up of MGP but which represents a majority of the voting power of MGP’s shares. As a result, MGP continues to be controlled by MGM through its majority voting rights and is consolidated by MGM.

In March 2021, certain subsidiaries of MGM delivered a notice of redemption to the Company covering approximately 37.1 million Operating Partnership units that they held that was satisfied with aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion using cash on hand together with the proceeds from the issuance of Class A shares. Refer to Note 8 for further discussion.

On August 4, 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an agreement with VICI Properties, Inc. (“VICI”) and MGM whereby VICI will acquire the Company in a stock-for-stock transaction (such transaction, the “VICI Transaction”). Pursuant to the agreement, MGP Class A shareholders will have the right to receive 1.366 shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each MGP Class A share outstanding and MGM will have the right to receive 1.366 units of the new VICI operating partnership (“VICI OP”) in exchange for each Operating Partnership unit held by MGM. The fixed exchange ratio represents an agreed upon price of $43 per share of MGP Class A share to the five-day volume weighted average price of VICI stock as of the close of business on July 30, 2021. In connection with the exchange, VICI OP will redeem the majority of MGM’s VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with MGM retaining approximately 12.2 million VICI OP units. MGP’s Class B share that is held by MGM will be cancelled. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, and approval by VICI stockholders (which was received on October 29, 2021).

Subsequent to quarter end, on October 29, 2021, the Company acquired the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from MGM for $400 million of cash consideration. MGM Springfield was added to the MGM-MGP Master Lease between the Company and MGM. Following the closing of the transaction, the annual rent payment under the MGM-MGP Master Lease increased by $30 million, $27.0 million of which is fixed and contractually grows at 2% per year with escalators subject to the tenant meeting an adjusted net revenue to rent ratio. Final regulatory approvals, which were not necessary for the transaction to close, are expected to be received within nine to twelve months following the close of the transaction. Until final regulatory approvals are obtained, the parties will be subject to a trust agreement, which will provide for the property to be placed into a trust (or, at MGM’s option, be returned to MGM) during the interim period in the event that the regulator finds reasonable cause to believe that the Company may not be found suitable. The property will then remain in trust until a final determination regarding the Company’s suitability is made.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), and with the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. All adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period have been included.

13

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period presentation.

Principles of consolidation. The Company identifies entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights and to determine which business enterprise is the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities (“VIE”). A VIE is an entity in which either (i) the equity investors as a group, if any, lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company identifies the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the enterprise that has both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the entity. The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary beneficiary. The Company may change its original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposition of all or a portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary. The Company performs this analysis on an ongoing basis. The consolidated financial statements of MGP include the accounts of the Operating Partnership, a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary, as well as its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, which represents all of MGP’s assets and liabilities. As MGP holds what is deemed a majority voting interest in the Operating Partnership through its ownership of the Operating Partnership’s sole general partner, it qualifies for the exemption from providing certain of the required disclosures associated with investments in VIEs. The consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, MGP Lessor LLC, which is the MGM-MGP Master Lease landlord, a VIE of which the Operating Partnership is the primary beneficiary. As of September 30, 2021, on a consolidated basis, MGP Lessor, LLC had total assets of $9.0 billion primarily related to its real estate investments, and total liabilities of $577.7 million primarily related to its deferred revenue and operating lease liabilities.

For entities determined not to be VIEs, the Company consolidates such entities in which the Company owns 100% of the equity. For entities in which the Company owns less than 100% of the equity interest, the Company consolidates the entity under the voting interest model if it has controlling financial interest based upon the terms of the respective entities’ ownership agreements. If the entity does not qualify for consolidation under the voting interest model and the Company has significant influence over the operating and financial decisions of the entity, the Company accounts for the entity under the equity method, such as the Company’s MGP BREIT Venture, which does not qualify for consolidation as the Company has joint control, given the entity is structured with substantive participating rights whereby both owners participate in the decision making process which prevents the Company from exerting a controlling financial interest, as defined in ASC 810.

Noncontrolling interest. MGP presents noncontrolling interest and classifies such interest as a component of consolidated shareholders’ equity, separate from the Company’s Class A shareholders’ equity. Noncontrolling interest in MGP represents Operating Partnership units currently held by subsidiaries of MGM. Comprehensive income or loss of the Operating Partnership is allocated to its noncontrolling interest based on the noncontrolling interest’s ownership percentage in the Operating Partnership except for income tax expenses. Ownership percentage is calculated by dividing the number of Operating Partnership units held by the noncontrolling interest by the total Operating Partnership units held by the noncontrolling interest and the Company. Issuance of additional Class A shares and Operating Partnership units changes the ownership interests of both the noncontrolling interest and the Company. Such transactions and the related proceeds are treated as capital transactions.

MGM may tender its Operating Partnership units for redemption in exchange for cash equal to the market price of MGP’s Class A shares at the time of redemption or for unregistered Class A shares on a one-for-one basis. Such election to pay cash or issue Class A shares to satisfy an Operating Partnership unitholder’s redemption request is solely within the control of MGP’s independent conflicts committee.

Redeemable noncontrolling interest and redeemable capital. On January 14, 2020 the Operating Partnership agreed to waive its right following the closing of the MGP BREIT Venture Transaction to issue MGP Class A shares, in lieu of cash, to settle redemptions of Operating Partnership units held by MGM up to a maximum cash redemption amount of $1.4 billion. In connection with the waiver, the Operating Partnership and the Company reclassified, from permanent equity to temporary equity, the carrying value of Operating Partnership units that could require cash redemption and remeasured the units to their redemption value. The Operating Partnership units that comprised the $1.4 billion redemption amount were determined based on a 3% discount to the ten-day average closing price prior to the date of determination.

At each subsequent reporting period, the carrying value of temporary equity was remeasured to the greater of: (1) the carrying value of the number of units then considered redeemable, inclusive of the comprehensive income and losses attributed based on a per unit or share basis in accordance with ASC 810 or (2) the redemption value of the number of units that are then redeemable based on the remaining aggregate cash redemption amount and the per share redemption value, except that decreases in the per unit or share redemption were limited to the amount of previous increases, with the differences between the carrying value and the remeasured value being recorded as an adjustment in additional paid-in capital (in lieu of retained earnings) or limited partners’ capital.

The $1.4 billion maximum cash redemption amount was completed by the $700 million redeemed on May 18, 2020 and the $700 million redeemed on December 2, 2020.

Property transactions, net. Property transactions, net are comprised of transactions related to long-lived assets, such as gains and losses on the disposition of assets.

Fair value measurements. Fair value measurements are utilized in the accounting and impairment assessments of the Company’s real estate investments, investment in unconsolidated affiliate, and certain of its financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured according to a hierarchy that includes: Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices in an active market; Level 2 inputs, which are observable inputs for similar assets; or Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs. The Company used the following inputs in its fair value measurements:

• Level 2 inputs for its debt fair value disclosures. See Note 6; and

• Level 2 inputs when measuring the fair value of its interest rate swaps. See Note 7.

Reportable segment. The Company’s operations consist of investments in real estate, both wholly-owned and through its investment in MGP BREIT Venture, for which all such real estate properties are similar to one another in that they consist of large-scale destination entertainment and leisure properties and related offerings, whose tenants generally offer casino gaming, hotel, convention, dining, entertainment and retail amenities, have similar economic characteristics and are governed by triple-net operating leases. The operating results of the Company’s wholly owned and equity method real estate investments are regularly reviewed, in the aggregate, by the chief operating decision maker. As such, the Company has one reportable segment.

Income tax provision. For interim income tax reporting, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies it to its year-to-date ordinary income. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur. The Company’s effective income tax rate was a provision of 2.8% and 2.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and 2.7% and 8.4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

The Company and MGM join in the filing of a New Jersey consolidated corporation business tax return and have entered into a tax sharing agreement which provides for an allocation of taxes due in the consolidated New Jersey return. No amounts were due to MGM under the tax sharing agreement between the Company and MGM as of September 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

15

Recently issued accounting standards. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASC 848, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”. ASC 848 provides optional expedients for applying U.S. GAAP to reference rate reform related contracts, hedging relationships and other qualifying transactions. Application of these expedients preserve the presentation of derivative instruments consistent with past presentation. The guidance is optional and may be elected when or as reference rate reform activities occur. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will elect practical expedients if and when its hedging and related activities are impacted.

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATE

As of September 30, 2021, the Operating Partnership’s investment in unconsolidated affiliate was comprised of its 50.1% interest in MGP BREIT Venture. The Operating Partnership recorded its share of income as “Income from unconsolidated affiliate” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Operating Partnership received $23.5 million and $70.5 million in distributions from MGP BREIT Venture during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $22.9 million and $58.1 million in distributions from MGP BREIT Venture during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

Summarized results of operations of MGP BREIT Venture are as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020

Net income		50,001		50,320		151,314		127,799

MGP BREIT Venture guarantee. The Operating Partnership provides a guarantee for losses incurred by the lenders of the $3.0 billion indebtedness of the MGP BREIT Venture arising out of certain bad acts by the Operating Partnership, its venture partner, or the venture, such as fraud or willful misconduct, based on the party’s percentage ownership of the MGP BREIT Venture, which guarantee is capped at 10% of the principal amount outstanding at the time of the loss. The Operating Partnership and its venture partner have separately indemnified each other for the other party’s share of the overall liability exposure, if at fault. The guarantee is accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial.

MGP BREIT Venture excess cash flow guarantee. The MGP BREIT Venture loan agreement requires that the tenant EBITDAR to MGP BREIT Venture cash interest ratio is maintained above a specified level. If this ratio is not met for two consecutive fiscal quarters, then the borrowers will be unable to distribute excess cash flows to the venture partners unless and until an excess cash flow guarantee is provided. The ratio was not met for the two consecutive quarters ended December 31, 2020, and, as a result, in April 2021, the Operating Partnership and an entity affiliated with BREIT each delivered an excess cash flow guarantee to the lenders covering all distributions since January 1, 2021. The guarantee provides that the MGP BREIT Venture may distribute an aggregate amount of cash not to exceed 9.9% of the principal amount of the MGP BREIT Venture’s outstanding indebtedness under the loan agreement, after which distributions must remain at the MGP BREIT Venture in a restricted cash account until such time as the tenant EBITDAR to MGP BREIT Venture cash interest ratio is met for two consecutive quarters. In addition, in the event of a default under the loan agreement while the ratio is not met, the Company may be required to return its respective share of distributions received during the period covered by the guarantee.

NOTE 5 — LEASES

MGM-MGP Master Lease. The MGM-MGP Master Lease is accounted for as an operating lease and has an initial lease term of ten years that began on April 25, 2016 (other than with respect to MGM National Harbor, as described below) with the potential to extend the term for four additional five-year terms thereafter at the option of the tenant. The lease provides that any extension of its term must apply to all of the real estate under the lease at the time of the extension. With respect to MGM National Harbor, the initial lease term ends on August 31, 2024. Thereafter, the initial term of the lease with respect to MGM National Harbor may be renewed at the option of the tenant for an initial renewal period lasting until the earlier of the end of the then-current term of the lease or the next renewal term (depending on whether MGM elects to renew the other properties under the lease in

16

connection with the expiration of the initial ten-year term). If, however, the tenant chooses not to renew the lease with respect to MGM National Harbor after the initial MGM National Harbor term under the lease, the tenant would also lose the right to renew the lease with respect to the rest of the properties when the initial ten-year lease term ends related to the rest of the properties in 2026. The lease has a triple-net structure, which requires the tenant to pay substantially all costs associated with the lease, including real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and routine maintenance, in addition to the base rent. Additionally, the lease provides MGP with a right of first offer with respect to any future gaming development by MGM on the undeveloped land adjacent to Empire City, which MGP may exercise should MGM elect to sell such property in the future.

Rent under the lease consists of a “base rent” component and a “percentage rent” component. As of September 30, 2021, the base rent represents approximately 91% of the rent payments due under the lease and the percentage rent represents approximately 9% of the rent payments due under the lease. The base rent includes a fixed annual rent escalator of 2.0% for the second through the sixth lease years (as defined in the lease). Thereafter, beginning on April 1, 2022, the annual escalator of 2.0% will be subject to the tenant and, without duplication, the operating subsidiary sublessees of the tenant, collectively meeting an adjusted net revenue to rent ratio of 6.25:1.00 based on their net revenue from the leased properties subject to the lease (as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, adjusted to exclude net revenue attributable to certain scheduled subleases and, at the tenant’s option, reimbursed cost revenue). The percentage rent will initially be a fixed amount for approximately the first six years and will then be adjusted every five years based on the average annual adjusted net revenues of the tenant and, without duplication, the operating subtenants, from the leased properties subject to the lease at such time for the trailing five calendar-year period (calculated by multiplying the average annual adjusted net revenues, excluding net revenue attributable to certain scheduled subleases and, at the tenant’s option, reimbursed cost revenue, for the trailing five calendar-year period by 1.4%).

NOTE 7 —   DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Operating Partnership uses derivative instruments to mitigate the effects of interest rate volatility inherent in its variable rate senior credit facility and forecasted debt issuances for the duration and amount of its interest rate swap agreements, which such variable rate could unfavorably impact future earnings and forecasted cash flows. The Operating Partnership and the Company do not use derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

In May 2021, the Operating Partnership terminated interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $1.2 billion which resulted in a loss of less than $0.1 million. Additionally, in June 2021, the Operating Partnership modified and extended certain of its existing interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $900 million, effective June 30, 2022. The weighted average fixed rate paid under the modified swap agreements is 1.940% and the variable rate received resets monthly to the one-month LIBOR with no minimum floor. The maturity dates were extended to June 30, 2027.
