On January 23, 2015, Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. (“CEOC”), a majority owned subsidiary of Caesars Entertainment Corporation (“CEC”), received a notice (the “Notice”) from Wilmington Trust, National Association that holders of a majority in principal amount of 10.75% Senior Notes due 2016, issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of February 1, 2008 (as amended and supplemented to the date hereof, the “Indenture”), among CEOC, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, have appointed Wilmington Trust, National Association as successor trustee under the Indenture. The Notice indicates that the appointment has been accepted and is effective.

Expiration of Consent Process for Bank Lenders

On January 26, 2015, CEOC announced the expiration of the process for seeking consents from lenders under CEOC’s credit agreement to support restructuring of CEOC’s outstanding obligations and liabilities, which included consenting to the form of Restructuring Support and Forbearance Agreement (the “Bank RSA”) that was provided to the lenders. The consent period for the Bank RSA expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 26, 2015 and the Bank RSA has not become effective per its terms. The expiration of the consent period for the Bank RSA does not affect the Third Amended and Restated Restructuring Support and Forbearance Agreement, dated as of January 14, 2015 (the “Bond RSA”), among CEC, CEOC and holders of claims in respect of CEOC’s first lien notes, which remains in effect since becoming effective per its terms on January 9, 2015, as previously disclosed by CEC’s and CEOC’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 9, 2015.
