Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On February 9, 2018, Wynn Results, Limited (the Company) was informed that counsel for Mr. Stephen A. Wynn submitted a letter (the Letter) to the parties in a lawsuit which is pending in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada in which Elaine P. Wynn has asserted certain cross claims against Mr. Wynn. The Letter states that, in light of the significant changed circumstances triggered by Mr. Wynns resignation as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company and of Wynn Macau, Limited, Mr. Wynn no longer contests that the Amended and Restated Stockholder Agreement, dated January 6, 2010, by and among Stephen A. Wynn, Elaine P. Wynn and Aruze USA, Inc. (the 2010 Stockholders Agreement) is invalid and unenforceable. The Letter further states that, while Mr. Wynn does not agree with Ms. Wynns bases for claiming the 2010 Stockholders Agreement is invalid and unenforceable, he does agree that it no longer binds either party and that, as such, it is Mr. Wynns position that certain of the cross claims asserted by Ms. Wynn in the pending case are now moot. A copy of the Letter is attached hereto and furnished as Exhibit 99.1. No assurance can be provided as to the outcome of such proceedings.
Mr. Wynn has informed the Company that regardless of whether the Stockholders Agreement is in effect, he has no immediate plans to sell shares that he owns and that if he elects to sell any such shares over time, he will seek to conduct such sales in an orderly fashion.
This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those we express in these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risks related to the litigation described above and the 2010 Stockholders Agreement as described in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (including under Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data Note 17 Commitments and Contingencies, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources, and Item 1A. Risk Factors Risks Related to Share Ownership and Stockholder Matters) and the Companys other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or revise its forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
