Additional Development

Recently, the Company received a letter from Golden Nugget, LLC proposing that Caesars acquire substantially all of Golden Nugget's restaurant, hospitality, entertainment and gaming businesses in exchange for a significant minority of Caesars' common shares.

The Board considered the proposal, in consultation with its legal and financial advisors, and determined that it is not consistent with the Company's plans to create and enhance shareholder value over the long term. The Board has informed Golden Nugget of its decision.

Consistent with its fiduciary duties, the Board continues to be open to reasonable alternatives to enhance long-term shareholder value.
