Item 1.01 Entry ~~Into~~into a Material Definitive Agreement

A. OnSupplemental May 25, 2007, Universal City Development Partners, Ltd. (“UCDP”) entered into an agreement with Warner Bros. Consumer Products Inc. (“WB”), pursuant to which UCDP licensed certain rights to the characters and other intellectual property contained in the Harry Potter™ books and motion pictures (the “WB Agreement”). Information

The WB Agreement is terminable, subject to applicable cure periods, if we fail to maintain quality standards, invest minimum required capital or use the properties in accordance with the license, or upon other customary events of default. In addition, if we sell Universal’s Islands of Adventure, or if 50% of UCDP is not owned by NBC Universal, Inc. or any of its affiliates (collectively, “NBCU”), the agreement is terminable unless there is a buyer of Universal’s Islands of Adventure or of the interests in UCDP that meets certain financial and reputation tests. In addition Universal’s Islands of Adventure must either continue to be managed by NBCU or continue to be operated under a license from NBCU that enables NBCU to maintain the quality and reputation of Universal’s Islands of Adventure (the “NBCU License Agreement”). In the event that, following such sale or change in control, in accordance with the WB Agreement, the name of the Universal’s Islands of Adventure theme park no longer contains the word “Universal” or “Universal’s”, only the Harry Potter™, Jurassic Park, Seuss Landing and Marvel Super Hero Island sections of Universal’s Islands of Adventure need to be operated under the NBCU License Agreement. In the event of termination by WB due to our default or a sale of Universal’s Islands of Adventure or a change of control of UCDP for which the foregoing requirements are not satisfied, payments due with respect to the remaining term of the agreement will be accelerated and due immediately.

We estimate our total capital investment in these attractions and the previously announced Simpsons™ attraction to range from $230.0 million to $265.0 million. This includes all capital expenditures to build these attractions. This also takes into account the net present value of all license fee payments, including license fee payments to WB that would become payable during the renewal option periods, but does not include merchandise royalties. During 2007, we expect to spend from $75.0 million to $85.0 million on these attractions.

On the same date that the WB Agreement was executed, the UCDP partnership agreement and a related license agreement were amended. The amended partnership agreement changed the definition of “Blackstone Partners” to include Blackstone UTP Capital LLC, Blackstone UTP Capital A LLC,, Blackstone UTP Offshore Capital LLC, and Blackstone Family Media III LLC, all of which are Delaware limited liability companies. The amended partnership agreement also provides that, effective as of the transfer or assignment by UCDP of the WB Agreement or a change of control as defined in the WB Agreement, if Universal’s Islands of Adventure is not managed by NBCU, NBCU shall enter into the NBCU License Agreement with UCDP or its successor for the duration of the term of the WB Agreement. The license fee would be the same as (without any duplication of) the “special fee” payable by UCDP under its amended partnership agreement. The amendments to the partnership agreement and related license agreement also change the period of time after certain changes of control during which UCDP or its successor may continue to use the name “Universal” to the latest of (i) 30 months after such change of control, (ii) 30 months after any termination of the WB Agreement prior to its scheduled expiration and (iii) the expiration of the WB agreement in accordance with its terms. In addition, the amendments to the partnership agreement and related license agreement amend the period during which certain intellectual

property rights are licensed to UCDP from NBCU to the later of (a) the expiration or termination of the WB Agreement or, if sooner, the date that neither UCDP nor its permitted successor or assign is a party to the WB Agreement, or (b) the date such intellectual property rights would otherwise (i.e., in the absence of clause (a) of this sentence) cease to be so licensed.

B.	Forward-Looking Information

Certain statements appearing in this Current Report on Form 8-K are “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenue or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions, business trends and other information that is not historical information. When used in this report, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts” or future conditional verbs, such as “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may” and variations of such words or similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Because these forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, our actual results may differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to a general economic downturn; the dependence of our business on air travel; the risks inherent in deriving substantially all of our revenues from one location; our dependence on Universal Studios, Inc. and its affiliates; the loss of key distribution channels for pass sales; competition within the Orlando theme park market; publicity associated with accidents occurring at theme parks; the loss of material intellectual property rights used in our business; and the seasonality of our business. There may also be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any forward-looking statements contained in this report.
