Caesars Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CZR) today announced that its indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Caesars Resort Collection, LLC (“CRC”) and CRC Finco, Inc. (“CRC Finco” and, together with the CRC, the “Issuers”), commenced a cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) for any and all of the Issuers’ outstanding 5.750% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Issuers’ Offer to Purchase, dated January 24, 2024 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the accompanying Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, dated January 24, 2024 (the “Notice of Guaranteed Delivery” and together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Tender Offer Documents”).

The "Tender Offer Consideration" for each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes validly tendered, and not validly withdrawn, and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the fixed spread for the Notes specified above plus the yield based on the bid-side price of the U.S. Treasury Reference Security specified above, as quoted on the Bloomberg Bond Trader FIT3 series of pages, at 2:00 p.m. New York City time, on January 30, 2024, the date on which the Tender Offer is currently scheduled to expire.

In addition to the Tender Offer Consideration, holders of Notes that are validly tendered and accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the settlement date for the Tender Offer, which is currently expected to be no later than 5 business day following the Expiration Time. Completion of the Tender Offer is subject to certain market and other conditions, including the completion by the Issuers of new financing on terms and conditions satisfactory to them.

If 90% or more of the outstanding Notes are tendered and accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer, the Issuers intend to redeem any Notes that were not tendered and accepted for purchase upon not less than 10 or more than 60 days’ notice following the settlement date of the Tender Offer at a price equal to the Tender Offer Consideration, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

To the extent that less than 90% of the outstanding Notes are tendered and accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer, the Issuers intend to satisfy and discharge the indenture governing the Notes, in accordance with the provisions thereof, and to redeem at par on July 1, 2024 the Notes that remain outstanding following the consummation of the Tender Offer. Following such satisfaction and discharge, the Issuers will no longer be subject to the covenants in the indenture governing the Notes.

As described in the Offer to Purchase, tendered Notes may be validly withdrawn at any time prior to or at, but not after, the withdrawal deadline, unless the Issuers amend the Tender Offer, in which case the withdrawal rights may be extended as the Issuers determine, to the extent required by law. The consummation of the Tender Offer and the Issuers’ obligations to accept for purchase, and to pay for, Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Tender Offer are subject to the satisfaction of or waiver of the financing condition and the other conditions described in the Offer to Purchase.

Statements of intent in this press release shall not constitute a notice of redemption under the indenture governing the Notes. Any such notice, if made, will only be made in accordance with the provisions of the indenture. The Issuers may amend, extend or, subject to certain conditions and applicable law, terminate the Tender Offer at any time in its sole discretion. The Tender Offer is not conditioned on any minimum amount of Notes being tendered.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to purchase or the solicitation of an offer to sell the Notes or any other securities, nor shall there be any offer or sale of any Notes or other securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any jurisdiction. The complete terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are described in the Offer to Purchase and the related Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, copies of which may be obtained from D.F. King & Co., Inc., the tender and information agent for the Tender Offer, at http://www.dfking.com/Caesars, by email at Caesars@dfking.com, by telephone at (866) 811-1442 (U.S. toll free) and (212) 269-5550 (banks and brokers) or in writing at D.F.
