Inc.’s, a Delaware corporation (together with VICI LP, the “VICI Issuers”), private offers to exchange (the “Exchange Offers”) any and all outstanding notes (the “MGP Notes”) issued by MGM Growth Properties Operating Partnership LP (the “MGP OP”) and MGP Finance Co-Issuer, Inc.

The VICI Issuers have accepted for exchange all tendered MGP Notes in the Exchange Offers and have issued $1,024,169,000 in aggregate principal amount of new 5.625% Senior Notes due 2024, $799,368,000 in aggregate principal amount of new 4.625% Senior Notes due 2025, $480,524,000 in aggregate principal amount of new 4.500% Senior Notes due 2026, $729,466,000 in aggregate principal amount of new 5.750% Senior Notes due 2027, $349,325,000 in aggregate principal amount of new 4.500% Senior Notes due 2028 and $727,114,000 in aggregate principal amount of new 3.875% Senior Notes due 2029 (collectively, the “VICI Exchange Notes”).

Documents relating to the Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations were only distributed to eligible holders of MGP Notes who properly completed and returned an eligibility certification confirming that they were either a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or not a “U.S. person” and outside the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act for purposes of applicable securities laws.

The VICI Exchange Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or purchase, or a solicitation of an offer to sell or purchase, or the solicitation of tenders or consents with respect to, any security. No offer, solicitation, purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
