LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 9, 2009--
Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ: WYNN) announced today the pricing by Wynn
Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. (the “issuers”), each a
direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wynn Resorts, Limited, of
$500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of new 7.875% First Mortgage
Notes due 2017. The notes will be issued at a discount of 97.823% of
par. The notes will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers
and outside the U.S. in accordance with Rule 144A and Regulation S,
respectively, under the Securities Act of 1933. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC
plans to use the net proceeds of the offering to repay amounts
outstanding under its revolving credit facilities and term loan facility.
The notes will rank pari passu in right of payment with borrowings under
Wynn Las Vegas, LLC’s credit facilities and its outstanding 6.625% First
Mortgage Notes due 2014 (the “existing notes”). The notes will be senior
secured obligations of the issuers, will be guaranteed by certain of
Wynn Las Vegas, LLC’s subsidiaries and will be secured by a first
priority lien on substantially all of the existing and future assets of
the issuers and guarantors and, subject to approval from the Nevada
Gaming Commission, a first priority lien on the equity interests of Wynn
Las Vegas, LLC, all of which is the same collateral that secures
borrowings under Wynn Las Vegas, LLC’s credit facilities and the
existing notes.
The notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or
under any state securities laws. Therefore, the issuers may not offer or
sell the notes within the United States to, or for the account or
benefit of, any United States person unless the offer or sale would
qualify for a registration exemption from the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws. The issuers have agreed to make an
offer to exchange the notes for registered, publicly traded notes that
have substantially identical terms as the notes.
