Item

7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On February 2, 2012, Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. (“CEOC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Caesars Entertainment Corporation (the “Registrant”), announced its intent to seek amendments to its senior secured credit facilities to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity of up to $4.0 billion aggregate principal amount of B-1, B-2 and B-3 term loans held by consenting lenders (“Extending Term Lenders”) from January 28, 2015 to January 28, 2018 and increase the interest rate with respect to such extended term loans (“Extended Term Loans”); (ii) convert original maturity revolver commitments held by consenting lenders to Extended Term Loans and promptly following such conversion, repay Extended Term Loans held by any consenting lender in an amount equal to 10% of the amount of revolver commitments that such lender elected to convert; (iii) extend the maturity of original maturity revolver commitments held by consenting lenders who elect not to convert their commitments to term loans, from January 28, 2014 to January 28, 2017 and increase the interest rate and the undrawn commitment fee with respect to such extended revolver commitments and upon the effectiveness of such extension, terminate 20% of extended revolver commitments on a pro rata basis; and (iv) modify certain other provisions of the credit facilities. In connection with the proposed amendment, CEOC intends to raise up to $1.25 billion of senior secured indebtedness and use up to $1.0 billion of the net cash proceeds to repay a portion of the term loans held by each Extending Term Lender on a pro rata basis, with such repayment being applied, first, to such Extending Term Lender’s non-extended B-1, B-2 and B-3 term loans and, second, to such Extending Term Lender’s Extended Term Loans. The proposed amendment of the senior secured credit facilities and related transactions are subject to market and other conditions, and may not occur as described or at all.
