Item 1.01 | Entry into Material Definitive Agreement. |
On May 12, 2017, Caesars Entertainment Resort Properties, LLC (CERP), a subsidiary of Caesars Entertainment Corporation (CEC), entered into an Amendment No. 1 (the Amendment), by and among CERP, Caesars Entertainment Resort Properties Finance, Inc. (CERP Finance), the other loan parties party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Citicorp North America, Inc., as Administrative Agent (the Administrative Agent). The Amendment amends the First Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2013, among CERP, CERP Finance, the other loan parties party thereto, the lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent (the First Lien Credit Agreement).
Among other things, the Amendment (a) reduces the interest rate margins applicable to approximately $211 million of CERPs existing $270 million revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility) to, at CERPs option, the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) plus 3.50% in the case of Eurocurrency Loans (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) or the ABR (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) plus 2.50% in the case of ABR Loans (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement), with further reductions to the Eurocurrency Rate plus 3.25% or the ABR plus 2.25%, respectively, at such time as CERPs Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 3.75 to 1.0 and (b) reduces the interest rate margins applicable to CERPs existing approximately $2.4 billion term loan facility to, at CERPs option, the Eurocurrency Rate plus 3.50% in the case of Eurocurrency Loans or the ABR plus 2.50% in the case of ABR Loans. The portion of the Revolving Facility that was not repriced under the Amendment will remain in effect with the existing interest rate margins.
The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Amendment were made only for purposes of the Amendment and as of the specific date (or dates) set forth therein, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Amendment and are subject to certain limitations as agreed upon by the contracting parties. In addition, the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Amendment may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries of the Amendment and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants contained therein, or any descriptions thereof, as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of CERP. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Amendment, which subsequent developments may not be reflected in CERPs public disclosure.
The description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
