(1) Upon the closing of the Acquisition (as defined in the most recent report of Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. (the “Registrant”) on Form 10-K, filed March 9, 2010), HOC entered into a seven-year $7,250 million term loan facility, all of which was drawn at the closing of the Acquisition. The outstanding borrowings under the term loan have been increased by an incremental term loan drawn in October 2009 and have been reduced by payments made subsequent to the Acquisition. The Registrant guarantees this facility, and all of the material wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of HOC have pledged their assets to secure this facility.

 

(2) Upon the closing of the Acquisition, HOC entered into the senior secured credit facilities, which include a $2,000 million revolving credit facility that was reduced to $1,630 million due to debt retirements subsequent to the closing of the Acquisition. At December 31, 2009, on an as adjusted basis after giving effect to the proposed offering, the Redemptions and the repayment of the 7.875% Notes, $1,402.9 million of additional borrowing capacity is available under HOC’s revolving credit facility, with an additional $162.2 million committed to back letters of credit. The Registrant guarantees this facility, and all of the material wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of HOC have pledged their assets to secure this facility.

 

(3) Includes $720 million aggregate principal amount of 11.25% senior secured notes due 2017 that were issued at par and $1,375 million aggregate principal amount of notes issued at a price of 96.225% of their face value, resulting in approximately $1,323 million of gross proceeds. The approximately $52 million discount, of which approximately $50 million remains at December 31, 2009, will accrete and be included in interest expense until such notes mature.


(4) “Actual” amounts include the book values of $215 million face value of 10% Second-Priority Notes due 2015, book values of $848 million face value of 10% Second-Priority Notes due 2018 issued in connection with the exchange offers that were consummated on December 24, 2008, and book values of $3,705 million face value of 10% Second-Priority Notes due 2018 issued in connection with the exchange offers that were consummated on April 15, 2009. Such amounts are inclusive of amounts paid in fees in connection with such exchange offers. The aggregate face value of such notes is $4,768 million.

 

(5)

“Actual” amounts consist of $479 million of 10.75% Senior Notes due 2016 and $9 million of 10.75%/11.5% Senior Toggle Notes due 2018. All of this indebtedness is guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the Registrant and each wholly-owned, domestic subsidiary of HOC that is a subsidiary pledgor with respect to the senior secured credit facilities and the 11 1/4% senior secured notes due 2017.

 

(6) The “Actual” unsecured senior notes consist of the book values of the following notes: $13 million face value of 8% Senior Notes due 2011, $125 million face value of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2013, $192 million face value of 5.5% Senior Notes due 2010, $792 million face value of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2015, $539 million face value of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2017, $573 million face value of 6.5% Senior Notes due 2016, $0.6 million face value of 7% Senior Notes due 2013 and $0.2 million face value of Floating Rate Contingent Convertible Senior Notes due 2024, all of which are obligations of HOC and guaranteed by the Registrant. The aggregate face value of such notes is $2,235 million. Of these notes, $340 million face value of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2015, $301 million face value of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2017, and $213 million face value of 6.5% Senior Notes due 2016 are owned by another subsidiary of the Registrant.

 

(7) The “Actual” unsecured senior subordinated notes consist of the book value of $12 million face value of 8.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011.

 

(8) Consists of the book values of the following debt: $230 million of 12.375% senior secured lien loans due 2016 incurred by Chester Downs, $25 million of 6% Secured Debt due 2010, $17 million of unsecured Uruguay bonds due 2010, $68 million of principal obligations to fund Clark County, Nevada, Special Improvement District bonds and approximately $11 million of miscellaneous other indebtedness.

As of December 31, 2009, on an as adjusted basis after giving effect to the proposed offering, the Redemptions and the repayment of the 7.875% Notes, the Registrant and its consolidated subsidiaries had $22,079.6 million face value of outstanding indebtedness, and its current debt service obligations for the 12 months subsequent to December 31, 2009, would be $1,751.2 million, which includes required interest payments of $1,676.9 million. In addition, as of December 31, 2009, on an as adjusted basis after giving effect to the proposed offering, the Redemptions and the repayment of the 7.875% Notes, HOC would have had $17,382.0 million face value of outstanding indebtedness, and HOC’s debt service obligations for the 12 months subsequent to December 31, 2009, would be $1,619.7 million, which includes required interest payments of $1,545.4 million. The amounts above do not include $554.3 million of outstanding indebtedness of PHW Las Vegas, LLC, a recently acquired unrestricted subsidiary of HOC that is not a borrower under HOC’s credit facilities or a guarantor of or pledgor under any other existing debt of HOC. This indebtedness is non-recourse to HOC, the Registrant or any other subsidiaries of the Registrant.
