Wynn Resorts, Limited Announces Pricing of Private Offering of  $500,000,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of Wynn Las Vegas First Mortgage Notes due 2017

LAS VEGAS, Nevada, October 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.
 
Forward-Looking Statements
 
This release contains forward-looking statements about Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp., including those related to the offering of notes and whether or not Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. will consummate the offering.  Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by Wynn Resorts or the issuers.  The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, competition in the casino/hotel and resorts industries, the issuers’ brief operating history, the issuers’ dependence on existing management, levels of travel, leisure and casino spending, general domestic or international economic conditions, and changes in gaming laws or regulations.  Additional information concerning potential factors that could affect the issuers’ financial results is included in the issuers’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and the issuers’ other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Neither Wynn Resorts nor the issuers are under any obligation to (and expressly disclaim any such obligation to) update their forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
