Material Changes and Agreements

This amendment was requested by the Nevada Gaming Control Board and the New Jersey Casino Control Commission. The key provision restricts the Borrower from requesting revolving facility loans or issuing letters of credit if doing so would cause the unutilized portion of the revolving facility commitments to fall below the amount of certain patron deposits held by the Borrower or its subsidiaries.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
The filing includes a standard cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements, noting that actual results may differ materially from projections due to known and unknown risks. No specific financial guidance or outlook for future periods is provided in this document. The primary contingency noted is the regulatory requirement to maintain sufficient unutilized credit capacity relative to patron deposits.
Investor Verification Checklist
