    % Second Mortgage Notes due 2010

Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. are offering $350 million aggregate principal amount of    % second mortgage notes due 2010. The issuers will pay interest on the second mortgage notes on            and            of each year, beginning                          , 2003. The second mortgage notes will mature on                          , 2010.

The issuers may redeem the second mortgage notes at any time on or after            , 2006. In addition, until                          , 2005, the issuers may redeem up to 35% of the second mortgage notes with the net proceeds of one or more qualified equity offerings. If we undergo a change of control or sell certain of our assets, the issuers may be required to offer to purchase the second mortgage notes from holders. The second mortgage notes may also be subject to redemption requirements imposed by gaming laws and regulations of gaming authorities in Nevada or other jurisdictions.

The second mortgage notes will be secured by (i) a first priority lien on the net proceeds of this offering, which will be deposited in a secured account pending disbursement; (ii) a second priority lien on substantially all of our other existing and future assets, subject to certain limited exceptions; (iii) a second priority lien on the $50.0 million deposited into a completion guarantee deposit account on the closing date of this offering; (iv) a second priority lien on the $30.0 million deposited into a liquidity reserve account on the closing date of this offering; (v) a second priority pledge of the equity interests held by the issuers in certain subsidiaries; and (vi) a third priority lien on certain assets pledged or assigned under a furniture, fixtures and equipment facility.

The second mortgage notes will be the issuers' general obligations and will rank senior to their existing and future subordinated indebtedness. Each guarantee of the second mortgage notes will rank senior to all of the existing and future subordinated indebtedness of each guarantor. The second mortgage notes and guarantees will be effectively subordinated to the obligations of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC under its credit facility and its facility for furniture, fixtures and equipment to the extent that the lenders under such facilities have security interests in the collateral that rank prior to the security interests in the collateral securing the second mortgage notes and the guarantees. The second mortgage notes and the guarantees will be subject to restrictions on payment and exercise of remedies that will be contained in intercreditor agreements.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

        This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. We urge you to read this entire prospectus carefully, including the financial data and related notes and the "Risk Factors" section beginning on page 16 before making an investment decision.

        The second mortgage notes will be jointly issued by Wynn Las Vegas, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp., a Nevada corporation, and guaranteed by Valvino Lamore, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and certain of its subsidiaries designated as restricted entities. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC is an indirect subsidiary of Valvino Lamore, LLC. Before the closing of this offering and the initial public offering of common stock by Wynn Resorts, Limited, a Nevada corporation, all of the members of Valvino Lamore, LLC will contribute their membership interests in Valvino Lamore, LLC to Wynn Resorts, Limited, in exchange for 40,000,000 shares of the common stock of Wynn Resorts, Limited, and Valvino Lamore, LLC will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Wynn Resorts, Limited.

        Unless otherwise indicated, information in this prospectus gives effect to the contribution of membership interests in Valvino Lamore, LLC to Wynn Resorts, Limited in exchange for shares of common stock of Wynn Resorts, Limited. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "our" and "us," as used in this prospectus, mean collectively, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiary, Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp., as issuers, Valvino Lamore, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries designated as restricted entities. References to Wynn Resorts mean Wynn Resorts, Limited, excluding any subsidiaries, references to Valvino mean Valvino Lamore, LLC, excluding any subsidiaries, references to Wynn Las Vegas mean Wynn Las Vegas, LLC, which will own and operate Le Rêve, references to Wynn Capital mean Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp., references to Wynn Macau mean Wynn Resorts (Macau), S.A. and references to Wynn Golf Course in each case mean Wynn Resorts Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valvino, excluding any subsidiaries. References to the restricted entities or the restricted group mean the issuers, Valvino, Wynn Golf Course, Wynn Design & Development, LLC, World Travel, LLC, Las Vegas Jet, LLC, Desert Inn Water Company, LLC, Desert Inn Improvement Co., and Palo, LLC. References to the guarantors in this prospectus mean Valvino and the restricted entities other than the issuers. Certain statements in this prospectus, including in this summary, constitute "forward-looking statements." See "Forward-Looking Statements."


Overview

        We are constructing and will own and operate Le Rêve, which we have designed to be the preeminent luxury hotel and destination casino resort in Las Vegas. Le Rêve will be situated on approximately 192 acres at the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada. We expect Le Rêve to cost approximately $2.4 billion to design and construct, including the cost of the land, capitalized interest, pre-opening expenses and all financing fees. We expect Le Rêve to feature approximately 2,700 luxurious guest rooms, a casually elegant 111,500 square foot casino, 18 distinctive dining establishments, an exclusive 18-hole championship golf course and a new water-based entertainment production. We have scheduled groundbreaking to occur in September 2002, with an opening to the general public scheduled for March 2005.

        Le Rêve is the concept of Stephen A. Wynn, one of Wynn Resorts' principal stockholders and its Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Wynn was previously Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mirage Resorts, Incorporated and its predecessor from 1973 to 2000. In that role, he was responsible for the development of



Bellagio, The Mirage, Treasure Island at The Mirage and the Golden Nugget—Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada, as well as the Atlantic City Golden Nugget in New Jersey and Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi. We intend for Le Rêve to set a new standard of luxury and elegance for destination casino resorts in Las Vegas.


Our Strategy

Other Financing Transactions

        Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital are indirect subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts. Concurrent with this offering, we expect that Wynn Resorts will offer shares of its common stock in an initial public offering expected to raise approximately $363.5 million in net proceeds. To develop and construct Le Rêve, we intend to use the net proceeds of this offering, borrowings of approximately $701.4 million under a $750 million revolving credit facility and $250 million under a delay draw term loan facility, facilities for which we have obtained commitments, and $178.5 million under an FF&E facility, which is currently being syndicated, together with equity contributions from Wynn Resorts. We sometimes refer to the revolving credit facility and the delay draw term loan facility as the credit facilities. Consummation of this offering is conditioned on consummation of the offering of Wynn Resorts' common stock and on Wynn Las Vegas entering into the agreements governing the credit facilities and FF&E facility.


Corporate Structure

        The following chart illustrates the organizational structure of our principal operations upon the consummation of this offering and the initial public offering of common stock by Wynn Resorts, including giving effect to the contribution of the Valvino membership interests to Wynn Resorts. This chart depicts the relationships between our various operations and our ownership interests in them. It does not contain all of our subsidiaries and, in some cases, we have combined separate entities for presentation purposes. We have also indicated which principal entities initially will be borrowers, issuers and restricted entities under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the credit facilities and the FF&E facility. All other entities, including Wynn Resorts and the Macau-related subsidiaries, will not be guarantors and will not be subject to the covenants in the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the credit facilities or the FF&E facility, except that Wynn Resorts will become a guarantor under these debt instruments, but not subject to their covenants, if it incurs, or becomes a guarantor on, other indebtedness.

        Wynn Macau, a majority-owned indirect subsidiary of Wynn Resorts, recently entered into a 20-year concession agreement with the government of the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China permitting Wynn Macau to construct and operate one or more casino gaming properties in Macau. Wynn Resorts owns its majority interest in Wynn Macau through a line of subsidiaries that is separate from the subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts that own Le Rêve. There remain a number of objectives to be met by Wynn Macau and the Macau government before Wynn Macau can pursue this Macau opportunity. We do not expect financing for this opportunity to be provided by or through any of the issuers or guarantors of the second mortgage notes. Furthermore, the assets of Wynn Resorts' Macau subsidiaries will not serve as collateral for our Le Rêve indebtedness.

Following the completion of this offering and the offering of Wynn Resorts common stock, Wynn Resorts intends to grant awards of restricted stock initially to six employees and to Mr. Franco Dragone, the creator of the new entertainment production at Le Rêve. The restricted stock will be subject to Wynn Resorts' repurchase right for a period of time.

(3)
The shaded area shows the entities that will be issuers or other restricted entities with respect to the second mortgage notes and borrowers or other restricted entities with respect to the revolving credit facility, delay draw term loan facility and FF&E facility.

For additional information regarding these entities, see "Our Affiliate's Opportunity in Macau—Ownership Structure of Macau-Related Entities."

(5)
Includes a number of wholly owned subsidiary limited liability companies. These entities include Rambas Marketing Co., LLC, Toasty, LLC, and WorldWide Wynn, LLC.

(6)
Wynn Resorts will contribute $30 million of the net proceeds of its initial public offering to Wynn Las Vegas to be held in a liquidity reserve account to support Wynn Las Vegas' obligation to complete the Le Rêve project. Such funds will be applied to the costs of the project in accordance with the disbursement agreement. See "Use of Proceeds."

(7)
Wynn Resorts will contribute $50 million of the net proceeds of its initial public offering to a special purpose subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, which will provide a $50 million completion quarantee in connection with the construction and opening of Le Rêve. See "Use of Proceeds." This special purpose subsidiary will be an unrestricted entity and will not be subject to the covenants in the credit facilities, the FF&E facility or the second mortgage notes. Similarly, it will not be a guarantor with respect to any of these debt facilities.

Ranking

 

The second mortgage notes will be general obligations of the issuers and will rank senior to any future subordinated indebtedness of the issuers.

that the lenders under the credit facilities have security interests in the collateral that rank prior to the security interests in the collateral securing the second mortgage notes;

 

 


 

that the lenders under the FF&E facility have security interests in the FF&E collateral that rank prior to the security interests in that collateral securing the second mortgage notes; and

 

 


 

of the restrictions on payment and exercise of remedies contained in the intercreditor agreements. See "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Guarantees—The Notes."

 

 

Each guarantee of the second mortgage notes will be a secured obligation of each guarantor and will rank senior to all of the existing and future subordinated indebtedness of each guarantor. Each guarantee will be effectively subordinated to the guarantee given by each guarantor:

 

 


 

for the obligations under the credit facilities to the extent that the lenders under the credit facilities have security interests in the collateral of that guarantor that rank prior to the security interests in the collateral securing that guarantor's guarantee;

 

 


 

in that the lenders under the FF&E facility have security interests in assets that do not also secure the second mortgage notes; and

 

 


 

in light of the restrictions on payment and exercise of remedies contained in the intercreditor agreements. See "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Guarantees—The Guarantees."

 

 

In the event that Wynn Resorts becomes a parent guarantor by issuing a parent guarantee, that guarantee may constitute senior or subordinated indebtedness of Wynn Resorts.

 

 

 

 

 

9

the issuers redeem the second mortgage notes within 60 days of completing the qualified equity offering; and

 

 


 

at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of second mortgage notes issued remains outstanding (excluding notes held by Wynn Resorts and its subsidiaries).

The issuers might not be able to pay you the required price for the second mortgage notes you present them at the time of a change of control, because:

 

 


 

the issuers might not have enough funds at that time; or

 

 


 

the terms of the issuers' credit facilities, FF&E facility for other debt prevent them from paying.

 

 

See "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Repurchase at the Option of the Holders—Change of Control."

 

 

 

 

 

10

11



Disbursement Agreement

 

The issuers, the trustee, representatives of the lenders under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility and a disbursement agent will enter into a disbursement agreement which will establish conditions to and sequencing of funding of equity contributions held by Wynn Las Vegas, borrowings under the credit facilities and FF&E facility and disbursements of funds from the account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes. Under the disbursement agreement, it is a condition to disbursement of the proceeds of this offering that Wynn Las Vegas first use a substantial portion of the cash equity contributions made to Wynn Las Vegas. In turn, it is a condition to disbursement of borrowings under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility that Wynn Las Vegas first use the proceeds of this offering. The disbursement agreement will also set forth procedures for approving construction change orders and amendments to the construction budget and schedule. Inspection & Valuation International, Inc. will act as construction consultant under the disbursement agreement and will be required to approve each request by Wynn Las Vegas for the disbursement of funds. See "Disbursement Agreement."

Intercreditor Agreement with Credit Agreement Lenders

 

Representatives of the lenders under the credit facilities, the trustee and the issuers will enter into an intercreditor agreement that will govern the relations between the holders of the second mortgage notes and lenders under the credit facilities. That intercreditor agreement will provide that note holders will have:

 

 


 

a first priority lien on the net proceeds of this offering, which, pending release to fund the disbursement requests under the disbursement agreement, will be deposited into a secured account in which the lenders do not have a security interest;

 

 


 

a second priority lien on all assets of any restricted entity and any other person that is pledged or assigned under the indenture or specified material documents (other than the net proceeds of this offering); and

 

 


 

a third priority lien on the FF&E collateral.

 

 

 

 

 

12



 

 

The intercreditor agreement will also provide that lenders under the credit facilities will have a first priority lien on all of the assets of Valvino, any restricted entity or any other person that is pledged or assigned under the indenture or specified material documents (other than the net proceeds of this offering) and a second priority lien on all of the FF&E collateral. The intercreditor agreement will also limit the exercise of remedies by the second mortgage note holders and the lenders against their respective collateral. We expect that the trustee will have the exclusive right to exercise, or not exercise, remedies against the net proceeds of this offering. See "Intercreditor Agreements—Project Lenders Intercreditor Agreement."

Intercreditor Agreement with Credit Agreement Lenders and FF&E Lenders

 

A representative of the lenders under the credit facilities and the trustee, on the one hand, and the representative of the lenders under the FF&E facility, on the other hand, and the issuers will enter into an intercreditor agreement that will govern the relations between the credit facilities lenders and the note holders, on the one hand, and the lenders under the FF&E facility on the other hand. This intercreditor agreement will provide that the lenders under the FF&E facility will have a first priority security interest in the furniture, fixtures and equipment for Le Rêve that is financed by draws on the FF&E facility. The lenders under the credit facilities will have a second priority security interest in such collateral and the second mortgage note holders will benefit from a third priority security interest in such collateral. The lenders under the FF&E facility will have, until repayment in full of the FF&E facility, the exclusive right to force a sale of any of the FF&E collateral or otherwise exercise any of the remedies available to a secured creditor in connection with the FF&E collateral. This intercreditor agreement will also limit the exercise of remedies by the lenders under the credit facilities and the second mortgage note holders against the FF&E collateral. See "Intercreditor Agreements—FF&E Intercreditor Agreement."

$50 Million Completion Guarantee

 

One of Wynn Las Vegas' wholly owned unrestricted subsidiaries, a special purpose entity, sometimes referred to as the completion guarantor. The completion quarantor will be providing a $50 million completion guarantee in favor of the trustee (for the benefit of the holders of the second mortgage notes) and the administrative agent (as the representative of the lenders under the credit facilities). The completion guarantee will, subject to a $50 million cap, guarantee completion in full of the construction and opening of Le Rêve, including all furniture, fixtures and equipment, the parking structure, the golf course and the availability of initial working capital.

 

 

Wynn Resorts will make a common equity capital contribution concurrently with the closing of its initial public offering of $50 million of the net proceeds of that offering to the completion guarantor to support its obligations under the completion guarantee. These funds will be deposited into a collateral account to be held in cash and/or certain permitted securities, and pledged to the lenders under the credit facilities on a first priority basis and the holders of the second mortgage notes on a second priority basis as security for the completion guarantee, to be applied to the costs of Le Rêve in accordance with the disbursement agreement. Any amounts then remaining in this account will be released to Wynn Resorts upon the completion and opening of Le Rêve.

Liquidity Reserve Account

 

The second mortgage notes will be secured by, among other things, a second priority lien on a liquidity reserve account. Wynn Resorts will, concurrently with the closing of this offering, make a common equity capital contribution to Wynn Las Vegas in an amount equal to $30 million. Wynn Las Vegas will deposit these funds in the liquidity reserve account to be held in cash and/or permitted securities. The lenders under the credit facilities will have a first priority lien on this account and the holders of the second mortgage notes will have a second priority lien on this account. The liquidity reserve account will secure completion of the construction and opening of Le Rêve, including costs of the design, construction and operation of Le Rêve in accordance with the disbursement agreement. Following completion of Le Rêve, the liquidity reserve account will secure payment of debt service until the account is released in accordance with the following paragraph.

 

 

 

 

 

14



 

 

Any amounts remaining in the liquidity reserve account following the completion and opening of Le Rêve will be available to meet Wynn Las Vegas' debt service needs. At such time as Wynn Las Vegas has met prescribed cash flow tests for a period of four consecutive calendar quarters after the opening of Le Rêve, any remaining funds will be used to reduce the outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility but without reducing the revolving credit facility commitment.

Use of Proceeds

 

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering, along with the borrowings under the credit facilities and FF&E facility and equity contributions from Wynn Resorts, to design, construct, develop, equip and open Le Rêve. The net proceeds of this offering will be deposited in a secured account pending disbursement. The trustee under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, for the benefit of the holders of the second mortgage notes, will have a first priority security interest in the net proceeds held in the secured account. Neither the lenders under the credit facilities nor the FF&E facility will have a security interest in the secured account or the funds held in that account. The funds in the secured account will be required to be invested in permitted securities at the discretion of Wynn Las Vegas. The disbursement agreement will require, among other conditions, that a substantial portion of the cash equity contribution made by Wynn Resorts be expended on the Le Rêve project before the proceeds of this offering are released from the secured account and applied to the project. None of the proceeds of this offering of second mortgage notes will be used to fund the development or construction of Wynn Macau's casino(s) in Macau.

Risk Factors

 

Investing in the second mortgage notes involves substantial risks. See "Risk Factors" for a description of certain of the risks you should consider before investing in the second mortgage notes.

15



RISK FACTORS

        The value of an investment in the second mortgage notes will be subject to significant risks inherent in our business. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus, before purchasing any second mortgage notes. If any of the following risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition or operating results could be harmed substantially. In that event, Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Capital and the guarantors of the second mortgage notes may be unable to meet their obligations under the second mortgage notes and you may lose all or part of your investment in the second mortgage notes.

        Certain statements in "Risk Factors" constitute "forward-looking statements." Actual results could differ substantially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors and uncertainties set forth below and elsewhere in this prospectus. See "Forward-Looking Statements."


Risks Associated with Our Construction of Le Rêve

There are significant conditions to the funding of the financing for the Le Rêve project.

        Concurrent with the closing of this offering and Wynn Resorts' initial public offering of common stock, we will enter into agreements to govern the credit facilities and the FF&E facility. The closing of this offering, Wynn Resorts' initial public offering, the credit facilities and the FF&E facility will be conditioned on each other.

        We intend to deposit all of the net proceeds from the offering of the second mortgage notes in a secured account pledged to the second mortgage note holders pursuant to an agreement with the trustee for the second mortgage note holders.

        Pursuant to the disbursement agreement, we are required to first use the net cash proceeds that Wynn Resorts contributes to us, other than the funds to be deposited in the liquidity reserve account, to fund the development, construction and pre-opening costs of Le Rêve. When these funds are depleted, we will be required to use the proceeds of the second mortgage notes, followed by proceeds of borrowings under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility. We do not expect to borrow under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility until approximately 16 to 19 months after the closing of this offering and after applying all of the proceeds of this offering towards the development and construction of Le Rêve. Our ability to borrow under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility, from time to time, to fund the development, construction and pre-opening costs of Le Rêve will be subject to various conditions precedent. As such, we cannot assure you that we will be able to draw upon the credit facilities and the FF&E facility after we have applied the proceeds of the second mortgage notes toward the development, construction and pre-opening costs of Le Rêve. In addition to other customary conditions to funding for these types of facilities, our ability to draw on the credit facilities and the FF&E facility will be subject to the following conditions:

16


        We cannot assure you that we will be able to satisfy the conditions to funding at the time disbursements or drawdowns are required to make payments of our construction costs. Satisfaction of various conditions is subject to the discretion of our lenders and the disbursement agent and is therefore beyond our control.

        Although these conditions must also be satisfied before we may draw funds from the second mortgage notes secured account, the lenders under our credit facilities and the FF&E facility will not confirm that, from their perspective, such conditions have been satisfied until we request draws under their respective facilities. Any failure to satisfy the conditions to drawdowns under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility could severely impact our ability to complete Le Rêve and could arise before or after some or all of the proceeds of this offering, or before or after any of the borrowings under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility, have been expended on the project. If this failure occurs after we have made our initial borrowings under these facilities, and if this failure causes a default under the agreements governing these facilities, any recovery by the second mortgage note holders effectively would be subordinated to the lenders under these facilities, given that these facilities are secured by liens that are prior to the liens securing the second mortage notes. In addition, if we fail to maintain the ability to drawdown funds under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility, neither we nor Wynn Resorts may have access to alternative sources of funds necessary to complete Le Rêve on satisfactory terms or at all. Even if we are able to procure alternative sources of funds, the terms and conditions of those funds could materially impair our competitive position and reduce our future cash flows.

Development costs of Le Rêve are estimates only and actual development costs may be higher than expected.

        We expect the total development cost of Le Rêve to be approximately $2.4 billion, including the budgeted design and construction costs, cost of the land, capitalized interest, pre-opening expenses and all financing fees. The required cash interest payments and commitment fees on the credit facilities, FF&E facility, second mortgage notes and any other

17



indebtedness and obligations of ours which will become due through the estimated commencement date of operations of Le Rêve have been included in our estimate of the total development cost.

        Of the estimated $2.4 billion total development cost for Le Rêve, the design and construction costs are budgeted to be approximately $1.4 billion, including the cost of constructing the new golf course and principal parking garage. The $1.4 billion of budgeted design and construction costs does not include costs such as:

        While we believe that the overall budget for the development costs for Le Rêve is reasonable, these development costs are estimates and the actual development costs may be higher than expected. For example, a delay in the commencement of construction beyond the scheduled commencement date may increase the overall budget for Le Rêve and under certain circumstances we may be responsible for the increased costs. Although we have a $34.3 million contingency to cover cost overruns, this contingency may not be sufficient to cover the full amount of such overruns. Moreover, the disbursement agreement imposes conditions on the use of this contingency. If we are unable to use this contingency or if this contingency is not sufficient to cover these costs, we may not have access to the funds required to pay the excess costs. Our inability to pay development costs as they are incurred will negatively affect our ability to complete Le Rêve and thus may significantly impair our business operations and prospects.

Not all of the construction costs of Le Rêve are covered by our guaranteed maximum price construction contract and we will be responsible for any cost overruns of these excluded items.

        We have entered into a guaranteed maximum price construction contract with Marnell Corrao covering approximately $919 million of the budgeted $1.4 billion design and construction costs for Le Rêve. The approximately $919 million guaranteed maximum price is subject to increases because of, among other items, scope changes to the project. We are responsible for cost overruns with respect to the remaining approximately $485 million of the $1.4 billion budgeted design and construction cost expenditures that are not part of the guaranteed maximum price contract, such as:

18


        Neither the guaranteed maximum price nor the other provisions relating to cost overruns in the construction contract with Marnell Corrao will provide any safeguards against increased costs related to items not covered by that construction contract. While we may in the future enter into other agreements that may seek to limit our exposure to construction cost increases, the actual costs for these items may exceed budgeted costs.

        If the cost of the items described above exceeds the $485 million budget for those items, we may need to raise additional funding, which may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all, or we may choose to reduce the scope of the work and design components to reduce the costs of constructing the project. Any such reduction in scope, however, would be subject, under specified circumstances, to obtaining the consent of the lenders under the credit facilities and, under certain circumstances, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage note holders as required under the disbursement agreement. Any such reduction in scope could adversely affect the economic prospects of Le Rêve and its value to the detriment of the second mortgage note holders. Any such budget overrun could significantly impair our ability to complete Le Rêve.

We may have to provide allowances for improvements to retail tenants in excess of our budgeted amounts.

        We expect to lease approximately eight of the retail shops at Le Rêve to third parties and intend to provide some of our retail tenants an allowance for improvements as part of the lease arrangements. We will own and operate the remaining approximately 18 retail shops at Le Rêve and will be responsible for constructing any improvements. These construction costs and allowances are included in our design and construction budget for Le Rêve. Design and/or construction costs in excess of an allowance are intended to be the responsibility of the particular retail tenant. Nevertheless, if we are unable to successfully negotiate leases consistent with our design and construction budget, we may have to fund or construct, at our cost, additional improvements in connection with the leases relating to the space.

Not all plans and specifications regarding the design of Le Rêve are finalized.

        Although we have determined the overall scope and general design of Le Rêve, not all of the detailed plans and specifications have been finalized. Specifically, as of the date of this

19



prospectus, and with regard to the portion of the construction budget covered by the approximately $919 million Marnell Corrao construction contract:

        With respect to the construction components for which plans and specifications have not been finalized, the guaranteed maximum price contract is based on master concept plans and agreed upon design and other premises and assumptions for the detailed plans to be created. Construction will commence before completion of all drawings and specifications. Delays in completing the drawings and specifications could cause delays in the substantial completion of the work and, under specified circumstances, could defer the contractor's obligation to deliver the completed project by the scheduled completion date.

        Inconsistencies between the completed drawings and specifications and the premises and assumptions on which the approximately $919 million guaranteed maximum price was based, could, under specific circumstances, cause us to be responsible for costs in excess of the guaranteed maximum price. For example, if the initial drawings, when finalized, are inconsistent with the premises and assumptions, we will be responsible for the increase, if any, in the cost to construct the work covered by those drawings over the previously agreed upon amounts designated for such work in the guaranteed maximum price. Furthermore, the premises and assumptions may not be sufficiently specific to determine, as between the contractor and us, who is responsible for cost overruns in specific situations. We may not have access to sufficient funds to pay for these increases in the guaranteed maximum price and, therefore, these increases could severely impair our ability to complete Le Rêve.

        Due to the lack of final plans for substantial portions of the project, the construction contract does not require Marnell Corrao to adhere to specific cost limits on a line item basis. Rather, it only obligates Marnell Corrao to complete the construction within an overall guaranteed maximum price subject to certain general balancing and other requirements. Therefore, there is a risk that the funds earmarked for the guaranteed maximum price could be exhausted before substantial completion of the project should Marnell Corrao spend greater amounts on certain line items in the earlier stages of construction. The construction contract addresses this risk by requiring Marnell Corrao to demonstrate that it has sufficient funds to complete the work if it reasonably appears, at any stage of the construction work, that the cost to complete the work will exceed the guaranteed maximum price. If Marnell Corrao is unable to provide this evidence, then we may not be able to demonstrate to the disbursement agent and the construction consultant as required by the disbursement

20



agreement that we have sufficient funds available to cover all remaining construction costs, plus required contingency, in accordance with our construction budget. Accordingly, if Marnell Corrao is unable to demonstrate that it has sufficient funds to complete the work, we may be denied further access to the proceeds of the second mortgage notes or, after the proceeds of the second mortgage notes have been expended, further access to drawdowns under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility.

        With respect to the costs of the components that are not covered by the Marnell Corrao construction contract, we have spent approximately 8.4% to date. Plans relating to many of these components have not been finalized. While we have received bids with respect to items comprising another 36.6% of these remaining budgeted costs, we have not accepted these bids and therefore the bids are subject to change. Accordingly, we have not yet spent money or received bids for a total of approximately 55% of these remaining budgeted costs.

        When we finalize plans or specifications in the future, we may discover that we need to obtain additional funding, which may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all, or we may choose to reduce the scope of the work and design components to reduce the costs of constructing the project. Any such reduction in scope, however, would be subject, under specified circumstances, to obtaining the consent of the lenders under our credit facilities and, under certain circumstances, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage note holders under the disbursement agreement. Any such reductions in scope could adversely affect the economic prospects of Le Rêve and its value to the detriment of the second mortgage note holders. We cannot assure you that we would obtain these consents.

The guaranteed maximum price under the Marnell Corrao construction contract may increase, and we would be responsible for the amount of any increase.

Increases in the guaranteed maximum price due to changes in the scope of work.

        Although we have a guaranteed maximum price contract, the construction contract with Marnell Corrao provides that the guaranteed maximum price will be appropriately increased, and the deadline for completion of construction will be appropriately adjusted, on account of, among other things:

Increases in the guaranteed maximum price due to insufficient contingency amounts and smaller than anticipated cost savings.

        The guaranteed maximum price provides for an owner contingency of approximately $7.6 million to cover several items, including owner-created delays and owner-originated changes in the scope of work. We cannot assure you that the amount of the owner-contingency will be sufficient to cover any or all delays or changes in the scope of work. The guaranteed maximum price also reflects a credit of $18 million for the anticipated savings

21



derived from the owner controlled insurance program on contractor and subcontractor insurance costs. While we have taken a conservative approach with respect to anticipating the cost savings, we cannot be certain of the precise savings until the final audit is complete.

        Cost overruns could cause us to be out of "balance" under the second mortgage notes, credit facilities and FF&E facility and, consequently, prevent us from obtaining funds from the second mortgage note proceeds secured account or, after those funds are exhausted, to draw down under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility. If we cannot obtain these funds, we will not be able to open Le Rêve to the general public on schedule or at all, which would have a significant negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations and our ability to satisfy our obligations under the second mortgage notes.

The liquidated damages provision in our guaranteed maximum price construction contract likely will not be sufficient to protect us against exposure to actual damages we may suffer for delay in completion of the project.

        Under the construction contract with Marnell Corrao, the guaranteed date of substantial completion is 910 calendar days from the date we direct Marnell Corrao by written notice to commence construction. The contract provides for liquidated damages in the amount of $300,000 per day to be imposed on Marnell Corrao on a daily basis, up to a maximum of 30 days, for a maximum amount of $9 million, if all work required by the construction contract is not substantially completed by the deadline, following a five-day grace period and subject to force majeure and other permitted extensions. We cannot assure you that construction will be completed on schedule and, if completion of the construction is delayed beyond the grace period, our actual damages will likely exceed $300,000 per day.

        The disbursement agreement requires us to obtain delay liquidated damages insurance to supplement the delay damages payable by Marnell Corrao. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain a liquidated damages insurance policy. If we do not obtain this insurance policy, we will not be able to obtain funds from the second mortgage note proceeds secured account or to draw down under the credit facilities. Moreover, even if we are able to obtain liquidated damages insurance, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain the insurance proceeds on a timely basis to pay our costs as they are incurred. In addition, if the contractor defaults under the construction contract, we may be unable to complete Le Rêve on schedule or within the amount budgeted. Failure to complete construction on schedule may have a significant negative impact on our operations and financial condition and ability to satisfy our obligations under the second mortgage notes.

The financial resources of our contractor may be insufficient to fund cost overruns or liquidated damages for which it is responsible under the guaranteed maximum price contract.

        Under the terms of the construction contract with Marnell Corrao, Marnell Corrao is, subject to specific conditions and limitations, responsible for all construction costs covered by the construction contract that exceed the approximately $919 million guaranteed maximum price contained in the contract.

        As noted above, the contract also provides for liquidated damages in the amount of $300,000 per day to be imposed on the contractor on a daily basis if the work required by the construction contract is not substantially completed by the deadline, following a five-day grace period and subject to force majeure and other permitted extensions. The liquidated damages for delay in the completion of construction are limited to a maximum amount of $9 million.

22



        Austi, the parent company of the contractor, which is a private company controlled by the Anthony A. Marnell II family, has agreed to provide a continuing guaranty by which Austi guarantees Marnell Corrao's full performance under the construction contract until final payment under that contract. In addition, Marnell Corrao is obligated to obtain and provide a $150 million contractor performance and payment bond.

        We cannot assure you that Marnell Corrao and Austi will have sufficient financial resources to fund any cost overruns or liquidated damages for which Marnell Corrao is responsible under the guaranteed maximum price contract. Furthermore, neither Marnell Corrao nor Austi is contractually obligated to maintain their financial resources to cover cost overruns. If Marnell Corrao and Austi do not have the resources to meet their obligations and we are unable to obtain funds under the performance and payment bond in a timely manner, or if the performance and payment bond is insufficient to cover any shortfall, we may need to pay these excess costs in order to complete construction of Le Rêve. This may require Wynn Resorts or us to raise additional funding, which may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all. If the opening of Le Rêve is delayed because we cannot fund cost overruns, it could have a substantial negative effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Certain provisions in the construction contract with Marnell Corrao for construction of Le Rêve may be unenforceable.

        Recently enacted Nevada statutes have substantially impaired, and in some cases eliminated, an owner's ability to withhold funds from a contractor or subcontractor, even when there may be defective work or a dispute about amounts owed. The new laws also limit an owner's ability to terminate, suspend or interrupt the construction, and in several circumstances, entitle the contractor and subcontractor to payment of their full unearned fee, following a brief notice period, if the owner suspends, terminates or interrupts the construction or fails to make payment or withholds amounts claimed to be due. The construction contract with Marnell Corrao contains provisions that provide us with rights and protections that in some circumstances may be inconsistent with these new laws. While it appears that some of the new laws can be waived, others expressly prohibit waiver. The effect of the new laws on the provisions of the construction contract is not completely clear. Therefore, while we have negotiated with Marnell Corrao for specific rights and obligations, including with respect to damages, termination and suspension of construction, those provisions of the construction contract may not be enforceable to the extent they conflict with non-waivable provisions of applicable laws. If the provisions of the construction contract are not enforceable, delays or suspensions in the work initiated by the owner or other events may expose us to increased costs. We cannot assure you that we will have sufficient funds to pay these increased costs.

There are significant risks associated with major construction projects that may prevent completion of Le Rêve on budget and on schedule.

        Major construction projects of the scope and scale of Le Rêve entail significant risks, including:

23


        Construction, equipment or staffing problems or difficulties in obtaining any of the requisite licenses, permits, allocations and authorizations from regulatory authorities could increase the total cost, delay or prevent the construction or opening or otherwise affect the design and features of Le Rêve.

        We anticipate that only some of the subcontractors engaged by the contractor to perform work and/or supply materials in connection with the construction of Le Rêve will post bonds guaranteeing timely completion of a subcontractor's work and payment for all of that subcontractor's labor and materials. We cannot assure you that these bonds will be adequate to ensure completion of the work.

        We cannot assure you that Le Rêve will commence operations on schedule or that construction costs for Le Rêve will not exceed budgeted amounts. Failure to complete Le Rêve on budget or on schedule may have a significant negative effect on us and on our ability to make payments on the second mortgage notes.

Simultaneous construction of Le Rêve and the Macau casino(s) may tax management time and resources.

        Because Le Rêve is scheduled to open in March 2005 and the Macau concession contract requires Wynn Macau to open a permanent casino resort in Macau by December 2006, we anticipate that there will be a period of time when we will be building Le Rêve at the same time as Wynn Macau will be building its casino(s) in Macau. If both projects are being built simultaneously, members of Wynn Resorts' senior management will be involved in planning and developing both projects. Major construction projects like Le Rêve will require certain members of management to devote a significant amount of time, attention and resources to the projects, including to manage costs, review budget issues, review design plans, address construction, equipment or staffing problems, pursue the licenses, permits, allocations and authorizations from regulatory authorities that we will need to obtain, hire and train employees and implement marketing strategies. Developing the Macau opportunity simultaneously with Le Rêve may divert management resources from the construction and/or opening of Le Rêve. Management's inability to devote sufficient time and attention to either project may delay the construction or opening of Le Rêve. This type of delay could have a negative effect on our business and operations.


Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness

We are highly leveraged and future cash flow may not be sufficient to meet our obligations, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes, and we might have difficulty obtaining more financing.

        As we progress toward the completion of the construction of Le Rêve, we will have a substantial amount of consolidated debt in relation to our equity, which debt will increase during the construction period. Concurrent with the closing of this offering, we expect that Wynn Las Vegas will enter into two credit facilities, a revolving credit facility in a maximum principal amount of $750 million and a delay draw term loan facility in a maximum principal amount of $250 million. We also expect that Wynn Las Vegas will enter into an agreement for an FF&E facility in a maximum principal amount of $178.5 million. The FF&E facility will provide financing for furniture, fixtures and equipment for Le Rêve and include a provision for an intercompany loan to World Travel, LLC, the owner of a corporate jet. We anticipate that we will draw down approximately $701.4 million under the revolving credit facility and the full amount of the delay draw term loan facility to fund the construction, development, equipping

24



and opening of Le Rêve and, therefore, by the time Le Rêve is complete, we expect to have total outstanding indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.5 billion, including the second mortgage notes.

        Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences for you. For example:

25


We have the right to incur additional indebtedness, which may exacerbate the risks described above.

        In addition to the undrawn amounts under the revolving facility, the terms of the credit facilities, FF&E facility and the indenture governing the second mortgage notes will permit us to incur additional indebtedness, subject to the limitations imposed by the covenants in those documents. If our existing and contemplated levels of indebtedness increase, the related risks will increase correspondingly. Furthermore, Wynn Resorts will not be subject to the covenants in the credit facilities and second mortgage notes and therefore could incur additional indebtedness.

We may not generate sufficient cash flow to meet our substantial debt service and other obligations, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes.

        Before the opening of Le Rêve, which is expected to occur in March 2005, we will have no material operations or earnings. Consequently, we will be dependent on the proceeds of this offering, borrowings under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility and the proceeds of Wynn Resorts' offering of common stock to meet all of our construction, debt service and other obligations.

        After Le Rêve opens, our ability to make interest payments under the credit facilities, the FF&E facility, the second mortgage notes and other indebtedness will depend on our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations. We cannot assure you that we will begin operations by the scheduled opening date or at all, or that we will be able to generate

26



sufficient cash flow to meet our expenses, including our debt service requirements. Our ability to generate cash flow will depend upon many factors, including:

        Some of these factors are beyond our control. In addition, if Wynn Macau opens one or more casinos in Macau, the financing documents for the Macau project(s) may contain restrictions or prohibitions on the distribution to Wynn Resorts of any cash flow generated by the casino(s). Any cash flow generated by one or more Macau casinos operated by Wynn Macau will not be generated by entities which are guarantors of our indebtedness. Thus, any cash flow generated by the Macau casinos may not be available to service our debt service obligations.

        If we fail to generate sufficient cash flow from future operations to meet our debt service obligations, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes, we may need to refinance all or a portion of the indebtedness or obtain additional financing in order to meet obligations with respect to the indebtedness. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of the indebtedness or obtain additional financing on satisfactory terms or at all, particularly because of our anticipated high levels of consolidated debt and the debt and lien incurrence restrictions imposed by the agreements governing the debt. See "—General Risks Associated with Our Business—We have no operating history." If we fail to meet our debt service obligations, we will be in default under ?our indebtedness and our lenders will have the right to accelerate our indebtedness and exercise other rights and remedies against us, including the rights and remedies described above.

Our indebtedness will be secured by a substantial portion, but not all, of our assets.

        Subject to applicable laws, including gaming laws, and certain agreed upon exceptions, we expect that the credit facilities will be secured by first priority liens on substantially all of our assets and the assets of our affiliates that are necessary for the development, construction, or operation of Le Rêve, other than assets securing the FF&E facility in respect of which the lenders under our credit facilities will have a second priority security interest. The second mortgage notes will be secured by first priority liens on the secured account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes, by second priority liens on the assets that secure the credit facilities and by third priority liens on the assets that secure the FF&E facility, other than certain aircraft-related collateral. We expect that the FF&E facility will be secured by a first priority security interest in specific assets financed by that facility, including our corporate aircraft, gaming and other equipment, furnishings, fixtures and devices such as elevators, escalators, our electrical substation, heating, vacuum and air conditioning equipment and slot machines. The credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage notes will not be secured by any assets related to Wynn Macau's planned operations in Macau, or, except under certain circumstances, Wynn Resorts.

        The representatives of the lenders under our credit facilities may release their liens on the approximately 20-acre parcel of land next to the Le Rêve site, which we sometimes call the

27



Phase II land. Pursuant to the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, under certain circumstances, any such release would automatically release the liens on such assets securing the second mortgage notes. The credit facilities will require any such release by the representative of the lenders under our credit facilities only upon the achievement of certain financial tests. The lenders under our credit facilities may, however, elect to release their liens on such assets at an earlier time and, as described above, such release would automatically release the liens of the second mortgage note holders on such assets. In addition, under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the second mortgage note holders' security interests in the 137-acre parcel, on which our new golf course will be constructed, may be released if we achieve certain leverage ratios and credit ratings from S&P or Moody's. Upon any such release of the second mortgage note holders' security interests in the Phase II land or the golf course land, the disposition or transfer of such assets will no longer be subject to any of the restrictive covenants in the indenture, and therefore the holders of the second mortgage notes may have limited or no access to these assets. Moreover, once released, these assets may be used to secure other indebtedness and, therefore, the holders of the second mortgage notes, as well as our other lenders, may have limited or no access to these assets if their indebtedness remains unsatisfied.

        In the event of a default under the financing documents, or if we experience insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or reorganization, the holders of indebtedness under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility would be entitled to payment from the collateral security in which they have a first priority security interest before holders of the second mortgage notes would be entitled to payment from that collateral security. See "—Risks Related to the Offering and the Second Mortgage Notes—The liens securing the indebtedness under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility generally will be senior to the liens securing the second mortgage notes." Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the collateral securing the second mortgage notes will be sufficient to repay all or any portion of the amounts outstanding under the second mortgage notes.

        In addition, while the guarantors will guarantee the second mortgage notes, they are not expected to have meaningful operations, other than with respect to the respective assets that secure the guarantees. As such, you should not expect Valvino or any of the restricted entities to contribute to any payments required to be made on the second mortgage notes.

The credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the indenture governing the second mortgage notes will contain covenants that will restrict our specified affiliates' ability to engage in certain transactions and may impair our ability to respond to changing business and economic conditions.

        The credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the indenture governing the second mortgage notes will impose operating and financial restrictions on Wynn Resorts Holdings, Wynn Las Vegas and specified affiliates designated as restricted entities under our credit documentation and the indenture governing the second mortgage notes. The restrictions that will be imposed under the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and/or the indenture will include, among other things, limitations on the restricted entities' ability to:

28


        The credit facilities will require the restricted entities to satisfy various financial covenants, including maximum total leverage, minimum fixed charge coverage, minimum earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization and minimum net worth requirements. Future indebtedness or other contracts could contain financial or other covenants more restrictive than those applicable to the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage notes.

        The restricted entities' ability to comply with these provisions may be affected by general economic conditions, industry conditions, other events beyond our control and delayed completion of Le Rêve. As a result, we cannot assure you that the restricted entities will be able to comply with these covenants. Failure by the restricted entities to comply with the covenants contained in the credit facilities, the FF&E facility or the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, including failure as a result of events beyond our control, could result in an event of default which could materially and adversely affect our operating results and our financial condition. If the restricted entities fail to comply with a financial covenant or other restriction contained in the credit facilities, the FF&E facility, the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, or any future financing agreements, an event of default could occur.

        If there were an event of default under one of our debt instruments, the holders of the defaulted debt could cause all amounts outstanding with respect to that debt to be due and payable immediately. We cannot assure you that our assets or cash flow would be sufficient to fully repay borrowings under our outstanding debt instruments, including the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, either upon maturity or if accelerated upon an event of default, or that we would be able to repay, refinance or restructure the payments on those debt securities. Further, if we are unable to repay, refinance or restructure our indebtedness under our credit facilities and the FF&E facility, the lenders under those facilities could proceed against the collateral securing that indebtedness. In that event, any proceeds received upon a realization of the collateral would be applied first to amounts due under our credit facilities and, with respect to the collateral securing the FF&E facility, applied first to amounts due under the FF&E facility before any proceeds would be available to make payments on the second mortgage notes. See "—Risks Related to the Offering and the Second Mortgage Notes—The liens securing the indebtedness under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility generally will be senior to the liens securing the second mortgage notes." In addition, any event of default or declaration of acceleration under one debt instrument could result in an event of default under one or more of our other debt instruments, including the second mortgage notes.

General Risks Associated with Our Business

We have no operating history.

        We were formed principally to develop and operate Le Rêve in Las Vegas. Le Rêve will be a new development which has no history of operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to attract a sufficient number of hotel guests, gaming customers and other visitors to Le Rêve to make our operations profitable.

        Our operations will be subject to the significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive uncertainties and contingencies frequently encountered by new businesses in competitive environments, many of which are beyond our control. Because we have no operating history, it may be more difficult for us to prepare for and respond to these types of risks and the risks described elsewhere in this prospectus than for a company with an established business and operating cash flow. If we are not able to manage these risks successfully, it could negatively impact our operations.

        We intend to lease approximately eight of the retail spaces and will own and operate the remaining approximately 18 retail spaces. We have entered into one restaurant management agreement, and we may enter into others with respect to one or more of the restaurants in Le Rêve. We have entered into one restaurant management agreement. We have not yet entered into binding agreements with any retail tenants or other restaurant operators, and we may not be able to obtain the number or quality of retail tenants or restaurant operators for the retail and restaurant portions of Le Rêve that currently are planned. If we do not obtain tenants and operators in sufficient number or of sufficient quality, it could impair the competitive position of Le Rêve and affect our operating performance.

        The opening and operation of Le Rêve will be contingent upon the receipt of all regulatory licenses, permits, approvals, registrations, findings of suitability, orders and authorizations from the Nevada gaming and other governmental authorities, including findings of suitability with regard to our direct and indirect principal stockholders. See "—Le Rêve will be subject to extensive state and local regulation, and licensing and gaming authorities have significant control over our operations, which could have a negative effect on our business." The scope of approvals required to open Le Rêve is extensive and failure to obtain or maintain such approvals could prevent or delay the completion or opening of all or part of Le Rêve, or otherwise affect the design and features of Le Rêve, and could materially and adversely affect our financial position and results of operations.

The loss of management and other key personnel could significantly harm our business.

        Our ability to maintain our competitive position is dependent to a large degree on the efforts and skills of the senior management team of Wynn Resorts, including Stephen A. Wynn, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and one of the principal stockholders of Wynn Resorts. Wynn Resorts has entered into employment agreements with several of its senior executives, and Wynn Resorts plans to enter into additional employment agreements with some of its other senior executives, including Stephen A. Wynn. However, we cannot assure you that these individuals will remain with Wynn Resorts. If Wynn Resorts loses the services of any members of our management team or other key personnel, or if they are unable to devote sufficient attention to our operations, our business may be significantly impaired. We cannot assure you that Wynn Resorts will be able to retain its existing senior management personnel or to attract additional qualified senior management personnel. See "Management."

30



        In addition, our officers, directors and certain key employees and those of Wynn Resorts also will be required to file applications with the Nevada gaming authorities and may be required to be licensed or found suitable by the Nevada gaming authorities. If the Nevada gaming authorities were to find an officer, director or key employee unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue having a relationship with us or Wynn Resorts, we or Wynn Resorts would have to sever all relationships with that person. Furthermore, the Nevada Gaming Commission may require us or Wynn Resorts to terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file appropriate applications. Either result could adversely affect our gaming operations.

        Until construction of Le Rêve is close to completion, we do not believe that we will require extensive operational management. Accordingly, we have kept and intend to keep our permanent staff at relatively low levels. We will be required to undertake a major recruiting and training program before Le Rêve opens. However, the pool of experienced gaming and other personnel is limited and competition to recruit and retain gaming and other personnel is likely to intensify as more hotel casinos are opened. We cannot assure you that we will be able to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified individuals to operate Le Rêve on acceptable terms.

The casino, hotel, convention, retail and other facilities at Le Rêve will face intense competition.

        Las Vegas Casino/Hotel Competition.    The casino/hotel industry is highly competitive. Resorts located on or near the Las Vegas Strip compete with other Las Vegas Strip hotels and with other hotel casinos in Las Vegas on the basis of overall atmosphere, range of amenities, level of service, price, location, entertainment, theme and size. Le Rêve also will compete with a large number of other hotels and motels located in and near Las Vegas, as well as other resort destinations. Many of our competitors have established gaming operations, are subsidiaries or divisions of large public companies and may have greater financial and other resources than we do.

        According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, there were approximately 94,277 hotel rooms on or around the Las Vegas Strip as of December 31, 2001. Competitors of Le Rêve will include resorts on the Las Vegas Strip, among which are Bally's Las Vegas, Bellagio, Caesars Palace, Harrah's Las Vegas Hotel and Casino, Luxor Hotel and Casino, Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, MGM Grand Hotel and Casino, The Mirage, Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino, New York-New York Hotel and Casino, Paris Las Vegas, Treasure Island at The Mirage and The Venetian, and resorts off the Las Vegas Strip, such as Las Vegas Hilton and Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino. The Venetian has begun an expansion anticipated to consist of an approximately 1,000-room hotel tower on top of the resort's existing parking garage and approximately 150,000 square feet of additional meeting and conference space. The Venetian's expansion is expected to be completed by June 2003. In addition, Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino has announced that it will begin construction of a 1,122-room, all-suite tower connected to the current hotel casino resort in September 2002, with an expected opening date of October 2003. Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino also is expected to open a new convention and meeting complex in January 2003, and Caesars Palace is currently constructing an approximately 4,000-seat performing arts "Colosseum," which is scheduled to be completed in the first quarter of 2003.

        The construction and expansion of these properties during the time that Le Rêve is being constructed may affect the availability of construction labor and supplies, resulting in increased costs. We cannot assure you that the Las Vegas market will continue to grow or that hotel casino resorts will continue to be popular. A decline or leveling off of the growth or

31



popularity of hotel casino resorts or the appeal of the features offered by Le Rêve would impair our financial condition and future results of operations.

        As noted elsewhere in this prospectus, Le Rêve will be different from many other Las Vegas resorts in that it will not focus on a highly themed experience. Instead, Le Rêve will offer an environment having a sophisticated, casually elegant ambience. Le Rêve's environment may not appeal to customers. In addition, customer preferences and trends can change, often without warning, and we may not be able to predict or respond to changes in customer preferences in time to adapt Le Rêve and the attractions and amenities it offers to address new trends.

        Las Vegas Retail Competition.    Retail shops in Le Rêve will compete with retail malls in or near Las Vegas, including the Fashion Show Mall, which currently is undergoing a substantial remodeling and expansion, retail stores at Bellagio, The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, which is expected to complete a 200,000 square foot expansion in 2004, The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian, the Desert Passage at Aladdin Resort & Casino and other retailers in resorts on the Las Vegas Strip, all of which may attract customers away from Le Rêve's retail shops.

        Other Competition for Le Rêve.    Le Rêve will also compete, to some extent, with other hotel/casino facilities in Nevada and in Atlantic City, with riverboat gaming facilities in other states, with hotel/casino facilities elsewhere in the world, with state lotteries and with Internet gaming. In addition, certain states recently have legalized, and others may or are likely to legalize, casino gaming in specific areas. Passage of the Tribal Government Gaming and Economic Self-Sufficiency Act in 1988 has led to rapid increases in Native American gaming operations. Also, in March 2000, California voters approved an amendment to the California Constitution allowing federally recognized Native American tribes to conduct and operate slot machines, lottery games and banked and percentage card games on Native American land in California. As a result, casino-style gaming on tribal lands is growing and could become a significant competitive force. The proliferation of Native American gaming in California could have a negative impact on our operations. The proliferation of gaming activities in other areas could significantly harm our business as well. In particular, the legalization of casino gaming in or near metropolitan areas, such as New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Boston, from which we intend to attract customers, could have a substantial negative effect on our business. In addition, new or renovated casinos in Macau or elsewhere in Asia could draw Asian gaming customers, including high-rollers, away from Las Vegas.

Because we may be entirely dependent upon one property for all of our cash flow, we will be subject to greater risks than a gaming company that is more geographically or otherwise diversified.

        We do not expect to have material assets or operations other than Le Rêve for the foreseeable future. As a result, we likely will be entirely dependent upon Le Rêve for all of our cash flow. Any cash flow generated by one or more Macau casinos operated by Wynn Macau will not be generated by entities which are guarantors of our indebtedness. In addition, the financing documents for the Macau opportunity may contain restrictions or prohibitions on the distribution to Wynn Resorts of any cash flow generated by these projects. Accordingly, cash flow generated by those Macau casino(s) may not be available to service our indebtedness, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes, or support our operations. See "—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness—We may not generate sufficient cash flow to meet our substantial debt service and other obligations, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes."

32



        Given that our operations initially will only focus on Las Vegas, we will be subject to greater degrees of risk than a gaming company that is more geographically or otherwise diverse. The risks to which we will have a greater degree of exposure include the following:

        Any of the factors outlined above could negatively affect our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to make payments on the second mortgage notes pursuant to the indenture, on borrowings under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility or with respect to our other debt.

The common ownership and management by Wynn Resorts of Le Rêve and a second resort developed on either the 20-acre parcel or the golf course land could have an adverse effect on Le Rêve.

        The common ownership by Wynn Resorts of Le Rêve and additional resorts developed on the 20-acre parcel adjacent to the site of Le Rêve and/or the golf course parcel may result in conflicting business goals because, once released from the liens under the credit facilities and second mortgage notes, a Phase II or other project developed on either the 20-acre parcel or the golf course land would likely be developed through an entity that is not part of the restricted group and could be a potential competitor of Le Rêve. For example, if Wynn Resorts or a subsidiary outside the restricted group develops a Phase II resort on either the golf course land or the 20-acre parcel, it could offer discounts and other incentives for visitors to stay at a Phase II resort, which might result in a competitive advantage of the Phase II resort over Le Rêve. In addition, that entity also may choose to allocate certain business opportunities, such as potential restaurant, dining and entertainment tenants or requests for room reservations, to the Phase II resort instead of Le Rêve. Although common ownership under Wynn Resorts of both the Le Rêve resort and the Phase II resort may result in economies of scale, efficiencies and joint business opportunities for the two resorts, if the Phase II resort is owned by an entity that is not part of the restricted group then Le Rêve may, in certain circumstances, bear the greater burden of the expenses that are shared by both resorts. In addition, management's time may be split between overseeing the operation of each resort. In certain circumstances, management may devote more time to the ownership and operations responsibilities of the Phase II resort than those of the Le Rêve.

Terrorism and the uncertainty of war, as well as other factors affecting discretionary consumer spending, may harm our operating results.

        The strength and profitability of our business will depend on consumer demand for hotel casino resorts in general and for the type of luxury amenities Le Rêve will offer. Changes in consumer preferences or discretionary consumer spending could harm our business. The

33



terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and ongoing terrorist and war activities in the United States and elsewhere, have had a negative impact on travel and leisure expenditures, including lodging, gaming and tourism. We cannot predict the extent to which the events of September 11 may continue to affect us, directly or indirectly, in the future. An extended period of reduced discretionary spending and/or disruptions or declines in airline travel and business conventions could significantly harm our operations. In particular, because we expect that our business will rely heavily upon high-end credit customers, particularly international customers, factors resulting in a decreased propensity to travel internationally, like the terrorist attacks of September 11, could have a negative impact on our operations.

        In addition to fears of war and future acts of terrorism, other factors affecting discretionary consumer spending, including general economic conditions, disposable consumer income, fears of recession and consumer confidence in the economy, may negatively impact our business. Negative changes in factors affecting discretionary spending could reduce customer demand for the products and services we will offer, thus imposing practical limits on pricing and harming our operations.

        Also, the terrorist attacks of September 11 have substantially affected the availability of insurance coverage for certain types of damages or occurrences. We do not have insurance coverage for occurrences of terrorist acts with respect to our Le Rêve project and any losses that could result from these acts. The lack of sufficient insurance for these types of acts could expose us to heavy losses in the event that any damages occur, directly or indirectly, as a result of terrorist attacks and have a significant negative impact on our operations.

Our insurance costs may increase and we may not be able to obtain full insurance coverage in the future.

        The cost of new insurance policies are higher as a result of general increases in premium levels. The cost of coverage may become so high that we will need to reduce our policy limits or agree to certain exclusions from coverage, and we may not be able to purchase or renew insurance policies on favorable terms or at all. If we are forced to reduce, or prevented from obtaining or renewing, insurance coverage with respect to the occurrence of certain casualties, we and our lenders, including the holders of the second mortgage notes, could be exposed to heavy losses in the event that any damages result from such an occurrence.

Le Rêve will be subject to extensive state and local regulation, and licensing and gaming authorities have significant control over our operations, which could have a negative effect on our business.

        The opening and operation of Le Rêve will be contingent upon our receipt and maintenance of all regulatory licenses, permits, approvals, registrations, findings of suitability, orders and authorizations. The laws, regulations and ordinances requiring these licenses, permits and other approvals generally relate to the responsibility, financial stability and character of the owners and managers of gaming operations, as well as persons financially interested or involved in gaming operations. The scope of the approvals required to open and operate a facility are extensive. Failure to obtain or maintain the necessary approvals could prevent or delay the completion or opening of all or part of the facility or otherwise affect the design and features of Le Rêve. We do not currently hold any state and local licenses and related approvals necessary to conduct our planned gaming operations in Nevada and we cannot be certain that we will obtain at all, or on a timely basis, all required approvals and licenses. Failure to obtain or maintain any of the required gaming approvals and licenses could significantly impair our financial position and results of operations.

34



        The Nevada Gaming Commission may, in its discretion, require the holder of any securities we issue, including the second mortgage notes sold pursuant to this prospectus, to file applications, be investigated and be found suitable to own Wynn Resorts' securities if it has reason to believe that the security ownership would be inconsistent with the declared policies of the State of Nevada.

        Nevada regulatory authorities have broad powers to request detailed financial and other information, to limit, condition, suspend or revoke a registration, gaming license or related approval and to approve changes in our operations. Substantial fines or forfeiture of assets for violations of gaming laws or regulations may be levied. The suspension or revocation of any license which may be granted to us or the levy of substantial fines or forfeiture of assets could significantly harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, compliance costs associated with gaming laws, regulations and licenses are significant. Any change in the laws, regulations or licenses applicable to our business or a violation of any current or future laws or regulations applicable to our business or gaming license could require us to make substantial expenditures or could otherwise negatively affect our gaming operations.

        Wynn Resorts' articles of incorporation will provide that, to the extent a gaming authority makes a determination of unsuitability or to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by the board of directors, Wynn Resorts may redeem shares of its capital stock that are owned or controlled by an unsuitable person or its affiliates. The redemption price may be paid in cash, by promissory note, or both, as required, and pursuant to the terms established by, the applicable gaming authority and, if not, as Wynn Resorts elects.

The Nevada Gaming Commission may impose unanticipated requirements regarding the licensing of owners of Wynn Resorts.

        Kazuo Okada is the owner of a controlling interest in Aruze Corp., the parent company of Aruze USA, Inc., referred to as Aruze USA, which, immediately before the closing of Wynn Resorts' initial public offering, will own approximately 47.4% of Wynn Resorts' common stock. Under Nevada gaming regulations, any beneficial owner of more than 10% of Aruze Corp.'s voting securities must be licensed or found suitable, including Kazuo Okada and his son, Tomohiro Okada. Kazuo Okada is currently licensed by the Nevada Gaming Commission to own the shares of Universal Distributing of Nevada, Inc., referred to as Universal Distributing, a gaming machine manufacturer and distributor. Kazuo Okada and his son previously sought approval from the Nevada Gaming Commission in connection with the proposed transfer of Universal Distributing to Aruze Corp. In connection with this application, the Nevada State Gaming Control Board raised certain concerns, including transactions which were then the subject of a pending tax case in Japan which involved Universal Distributing, Aruze Corp. and other related parties. The pursuit of this proposed transfer of Universal Distributing was deferred pending resolution of the Japanese tax case. The lower court in the Japanese tax case ruled in Aruze Corp.'s favor, but the Japanese tax authority has filed an appeal. It is unclear whether or how these events will affect the Nevada Gaming Commission's consideration of suitability with respect to Aruze USA's ownership of Wynn Resorts' stock.

        Aruze Corp. has informed us that there are a number of outstanding issues in the investigation of the proposed transfer of Universal Distributing including issues relating to the transactions involved in the above-described tax proceeding. These issues, if not satisfactorily resolved, could result in the denial of the application. No formal action of any kind has been taken by the Nevada State Gaming Control Board or the Nevada Gaming Commission in connection with these issues. If either of these bodies were to act adversely with respect to the pending proceeding involving Universal Distributing, that decision could adversely affect

35



an application filed by Aruze USA, Aruze Corp., Kazuo Okada or Tomohiro Okada in respect of Wynn Resorts.

        Mr. Wynn, Kazuo Okada, Aruze USA, Aruze Corp. and Wynn Resorts have entered into arrangements which provide that if any gaming application of Aruze USA, Aruze Corp. or Kazuo Okada concerning Aruze USA's ownership of Wynn Resorts' stock is denied by Nevada gaming authorities or requested to be withdrawn or is not filed within 90 days after the filing of Wynn Resorts' application, Mr. Wynn may elect to purchase the shares owned by Aruze USA in Wynn Resorts. Mr. Wynn may pay this purchase price with a promissory note. If Mr. Wynn chooses not to exercise his right to purchase the shares, Wynn Resorts has the right to require him to purchase the shares, including with a promissory note. The prior buy-out arrangements under the Valvino operating agreement and under the stockholders agreement between Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA and Baron Asset Fund were terminated upon the effectiveness of the new agreement. See "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Stockholders Agreement" and "—Buy-Out of Aruze USA Stock."

        As described above, if Wynn Resorts, pursuant to its articles of incorporation, or Mr. Wynn, pursuant to the buy-out agreement described above, purchases the shares of Wynn Resorts' stock held by an unsuitable person or its affiliate, including Aruze USA, Wynn Resorts and/or Mr. Wynn may, in lieu of immediate payment of the purchase price, issue a promissory note. However, if the Nevada Gaming Commission were to find the unsuitable person or its affiliate unsuitable to own the voting securities of Wynn Resorts, it could also determine that the person is unsuitable to hold a promissory note for the purchase of such voting securities by Wynn Resorts or Mr. Wynn, and could determine not to approve the issuance of the promissory note to the unsuitable person or its affiliate. In such event, the Nevada Gaming Commission could order the unsuitable person or its affiliate to dispose of its voting securities within a prescribed period of time that may or may not be a sufficient period of time to dispose of the securities in an orderly manner. Depending upon the period of time for disposition required by the Nevada Gaming Commission, this could have a negative effect on the price of the stock of Wynn Resorts. In the event that the unsuitable person or its affiliate is unable or fails to dispose of its voting securities within the prescribed period of time, or if Wynn Resorts fails to pursue all lawful efforts to require the unsuitable person or its affiliate to relinquish its voting securities, including, if necessary, the immediate purchase of the voting securities for cash at fair market value, the Nevada Gaming Commission could determine that Wynn Resorts was unsuitable or could take disciplinary action against Wynn Resorts. Disciplinary action could result in the limitation, conditioning, suspension or revocation of any approvals or gaming licenses held by Wynn Resorts and/or the imposition of a significant monetary fine against Wynn Resorts. Any such disciplinary action could significantly impair our operations.

If Wynn Macau builds and operates one or more casinos in Macau, certain Nevada gaming laws would apply to its planned gaming activities and associations in Macau.

        Certain Nevada gaming laws also apply to gaming activities and associations in jurisdictions outside the State of Nevada. As Wynn Macau develops its opportunity in Macau, Wynn Resorts and its subsidiaries that are licensed to conduct gaming operations in Nevada, including Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Capital, Wynn Golf Course and Valvino, will be required to comply with certain reporting requirements concerning gaming activities and associations in Macau proposed to be conducted by Wynn Resorts' Macau-related subsidiaries. Wynn Resorts and its licensed Nevada subsidiaries, including Wynn Las Vegas, also will be subject to

36



disciplinary action by the Nevada Gaming Commission if Wynn Resorts' Macau-related subsidiaries:

        Such disciplinary action could include suspension, conditioning, limitation or revocation of the registration, licenses or approvals held by Wynn Resorts and its licensed Nevada subsidiaries, including Wynn Las Vegas, and the imposition of substantial fines.

Our business will rely on high-end, international customers to whom we may extend credit, and we may not be able to collect gaming receivables from our credit players.

        We expect that a significant portion of our table game revenue at Le Rêve will be attributable to the play of a limited number of international customers. The loss or a reduction in the play of the most significant of these customers could have a substantial negative effect on our future operating results. A downturn in economic conditions in the countries in which these customers reside could cause a reduction in the frequency of visits and revenue generated by these customers.

        We will conduct our gaming activities at Le Rêve on a credit as well as a cash basis. This credit will be unsecured. Table games players typically will be extended more credit than slot players, and high-stakes players typically will be extended more credit than patrons who tend to wager lower amounts. High-end gaming is more volatile than other forms of gaming, and variances in win-loss results attributable to high-end gaming may have a positive or negative impact on cash flow and earnings in a particular quarter.

        In addition, the collectibility of receivables from international customers could be negatively affected by future business or economic trends or by significant events in the countries in which these customers reside. We will extend credit to those customers whose level of play and financial resources warrant, in the opinion of management, an extension of credit.

        While gaming debts evidenced by a credit instrument, including what is commonly referred to as a "marker," and judgments on gaming debts are enforceable under the current laws of Nevada, and judgments on gaming debts are enforceable in all states under the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the United States Constitution, other jurisdictions may determine that direct enforcement of gaming debts is against public policy. Although courts of some foreign nations will enforce gaming debts directly and the assets in the United States of foreign debtors may be reached to satisfy a judgment, judgments on gaming debts from U.S. courts are not binding on the courts of many foreign nations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to collect the full amount of gaming debts owed to us, even in jurisdictions that

37



enforce gaming debts. Our inability to collect gaming debts could have a significant negative impact on our operating results.

Because we own real property, we are subject to extensive environmental regulation, which creates uncertainty regarding future environmental expenditures and liabilities.

        We have incurred costs and expended funds to comply with environmental requirements, such as those relating to discharges to air, water and land, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous waste and the cleanup of properties affected by hazardous substances. Under these and other environmental requirements, we, as the owner of the property on which Le Rêve is situated, may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or chemical releases at that property. As an owner or operator, we could also be held responsible to a governmental entity or third parties for property damage, personal injury and investigation and cleanup costs incurred by them in connection with the contamination.

        These laws typically impose cleanup responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants. The liability under those laws has been interpreted to be joint and several unless the harm is divisible and there is a reasonable basis for allocation of the responsibility. The costs of investigation, remediation or removal of those substances may be substantial, and the presence of those substances, or the failure to remediate a property properly, may impair our ability to rent or otherwise use our property.

        We have conducted a Phase I Environmental Assessment. The Phase I report, as updated in August 2002, identified two areas where further sampling is recommended. Based on our prior work at the site and the other information in the Phase I report, we believe that, if any sampling indicates that remediation is required, the remediation will not be material, although we can provide no assurance with respect to the outcome. Otherwise, we believe that we have remediated all material environmental risks of which we are currently aware at the Le Rêve hotel site and on the existing golf course. However, in connection with constructing the new golf course, which will require significant grading, we may discover unforeseen environmental risks which we will need to incur costs to remediate. In addition, we will incur costs associated with asbestos removal from an existing office building in the event we decide to develop the 20-acre parcel of land located north of Le Rêve along Las Vegas Boulevard that will be available for future development should it be released from the liens under the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes. We may be required to incur costs to remediate these or other environmental hazards or to mitigate environmental risks.

If we fail to successfully register our Le Rêve service marks with respect to casino or hotel services or if a third party successfully challenges those marks, our business or results of operations could be harmed.

        We have applied to register the "LE RÊVE" service mark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, referred to as the PTO, for casino and hotel services, as well as for other ancillary uses. Our application for the hotel services mark has cleared the PTO examination process, meaning that "LE RÊVE" will be registered for hotel and other related services if no member of the public objects by a published deadline. Our application for the casino services mark remains pending and we expect it to be published for opposition soon.

        Even if we are able to obtain registration of the "LE RÊVE" mark for the above described applications, such federal registration is not completely dispositive of the right to such trademarks. Third parties with prior rights with respect to marks similar to "LE RÊVE," including to the English translation "THE DREAM," may nonetheless challenge our use of "LE

38



RÊVE" and seek to overcome the presumptions afforded by the registration. They also could attempt to prevent our use of "LE RÊVE" and/or seek monetary damages as a result of our use. Any such failure to register or successful challenge by a third party could have a material impact on our business or results of operation.

We will need to recruit a substantial number of new employees before Le Rêve opens and our employees may seek unionization.

        We will need to recruit a substantial number of new employees before Le Rêve opens and our employees may seek union representation. We cannot be certain that we will be able to recruit a sufficient number of qualified employees. Currently, Valvino is a party to collective bargaining agreements with several different unions, which it assumed in connection with the acquisition of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino. All of these agreements will expire before the scheduled opening of Le Rêve. However, the unions may seek to organize the workers at Le Rêve or claim that the agreements assumed in connection with Valvino's acquisition of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino obligate Wynn Las Vegas to enter into negotiations with one or more of the unions to represent the workers at Le Rêve. Unionization, pressure to unionize or other forms of collective bargaining could increase our labor costs.

Certain of Wynn Las Vegas' direct and indirect parent companies will be subject to regulatory control by the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada.

        Desert Inn Improvement Co., a direct subsidiary of Desert Inn Water Company and an indirect subsidiary of Valvino, provides water service to the existing office building on the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino and the remaining homes around the Desert Inn golf course. As a result of its service obligations to the remaining homes, Desert Inn Improvement Co. is a public utility under Nevada law. The public utility status of Desert Inn Improvement Co. imposes regulatory restrictions on us. For example, if Wynn Resorts decides to make changes to our or its ownership structure, such as in a merger or acquisition transaction or a significant stock issuance, or a sale of Aruze USA's shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock in the event that Aruze USA is found to be unsuitable to own such stock, Wynn Resorts will likely be required to obtain the prior approval of the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada. We cannot assure you that such approval will be obtained. Further, with respect to any other transactions which we may enter into in the future, we cannot assure you that these regulatory requirements will not delay or prevent us from entering into transactions or operating our business in a manner that might be beneficial to our stockholders.

The Le Rêve golf course land may be subject to restrictions which could prevent us from constructing the new golf course in accordance with our current plans and may inhibit future development of that land.

        We intend to construct the new golf course on an approximately 137-acre parcel of land located behind the hotel. Valvino acquired a portion of this parcel in connection with its purchase of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino and acquired the remainder when it purchased the residential lots located in the interior of, and some, but not all, of the lots around the former Desert Inn golf course. The residential lots, previously known as the Desert Inn Country Club Estates, were subject to various conditions, covenants and restrictions recorded against the lots in 1956 and amended from time to time since then. We believe that these conditions, covenants and restrictions were terminated in accordance with Nevada law in June 2001. However, some of the remaining homeowners have brought a lawsuit against Valvino challenging, among other things, the termination of the covenants, conditions and restrictions. If the plaintiffs prevail on their claims and the conditions, covenants and restrictions remain in

39



effect, we may have to adjust our current plans for the construction of the golf course by redesigning some of the holes located on the periphery of the course.

        In addition, at least two of the homeowners have alleged the existence of an equitable implied restriction prohibiting any alternative commercial development of the golf course. If the plaintiffs prevail on this claim, any future development of the golf course parcel for an alternative use may be restricted. Valvino is vigorously contesting the homeowners' claims and will continue to do so. See "Business—Legal Proceedings."

Wynn Resorts and its subsidiaries continue to explore opportunities to develop additional gaming or related businesses that could have an adverse impact on our business if unsuccessful.

        Wynn Resorts and its subsidiaries continue to explore opportunities to develop additional gaming or related businesses, in Las Vegas or other markets, whether through acquisition, investment or development. Any acquisition, investment or development would have the potential to be expensive, disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and/or adversely affect our financial results. In addition, any expansion of our business through acquisition, investment or development would likely require us to obtain additional financing and/or consent from our lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of the second mortgage notes. Acquisitions also may present other risks, such as exposing our company to potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses. Any acquisition or development may not be successful in achieving our desired strategic objectives, which would also cause our business to suffer.

A downturn in general economic conditions may adversely affect our results of operations.

        Our business operations will be affected by international, national and local economic conditions. A recession or downturn in the general economy, or in a region constituting a significant source of customers for our property, could result in fewer customers visiting our property, which would adversely affect our revenues.


Risks Associated with Our Affiliate's Macau Opportunity

        Wynn Macau, a majority-owned indirect subsidiary of Wynn Resorts, has entered into a 20-year concession agreement with the Macau government that permits it to construct and operate one or more casino gaming properties in Macau. Wynn Macau is part of a line of subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts that is owned separately from the subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts that own the issuers and the restricted entities. Wynn Resorts' indirect economic ownership interest in Wynn Macau is expected to be approximately 82.5% prior to any financing for the Macau opportunity.

Wynn Macau may not be able to develop the Macau opportunity.

        Wynn Macau has entered into a concession agreement with the Macau government that obligates it to construct and operate at least one casino resort in Macau. According to the concession agreement, Wynn Macau must invest no less than a total of 4 billion patacas (currently approximately $500 million at the August 11, 2002 exchange rate of approximately eight patacas to one U.S. dollar) on one or more casino projects by June 26, 2009, and to commence operations of its first permanent casino resort no later than December 2006. If Wynn Macau does not invest 4 billion patacas by June 26, 2009, it is obligated to invest the remaining amount on projects related to its gaming operations in Macau that the Macau

40



government approves, or on projects of public interest designated by the Macau government. Before Wynn Macau can construct and operate these casino(s), it must, among other things:

We cannot assure you that Wynn Macau or Wynn Resorts' other Macau-related subsidiaries would be able to accomplish any of the above and, if they fail to do so, Wynn Macau may not be able to develop the Macau opportunity. If Wynn Macau does not develop the Macau opportunity, Wynn Las Vegas will bear the full costs of Wynn Resorts' corporate overhead.

If Wynn Macau builds and operates one or more casinos in Macau, it will be subject to considerable risks, including risks related to Macau's untested regulatory framework.

        If Wynn Macau constructs and operates one or more casinos in Macau, its operations will be subject to significant political, economic and social risks inherent in doing business in an emerging market such as China. For example, fiscal decline and civil, domestic or international unrest in Macau, China or the surrounding region could significantly harm Wynn Macau's business, not only by reducing customer demand for casino resorts of the kind it would operate in Macau, but also by increasing the risk of imposition of taxes and exchange controls or other governmental restrictions that might impede its ability to repatriate funds. Some of the other risks involved in operating a business in Macau include:

41


        Wynn Macau may not proceed with the construction of casino(s) in Macau if, in the judgment of its management, such conditions and risks cannot be adequately resolved, or if these conditions and risks would adversely affect Wynn Resorts' ability to conduct gaming and hotel operations outside Macau, including at Le Rêve. However, the concession agreement does not contain provisions permitting Wynn Macau to terminate the concession agreement unilaterally, or permitting Wynn Macau to cease the development of casino(s) in Macau, for any of the reasons described above. The obligations under the Macau concession agreement are those of Wynn Resorts' indirect subsidiary, Wynn Macau. Accordingly, unless a court rules that Wynn Resorts and the intermediate Macau-related entities are not entitled to limited liability protection with respect to Wynn Macau's obligations under the concession agreement, or unless Wynn Resorts guarantees the performance of Wynn Macau's obligations thereunder, Wynn Resorts' exposure to the government of Macau would be no more than Wynn Macau's assets.

        Any potential investment in Macau could be jeopardized by future developments, and we cannot assure you that activities Wynn Macau may plan in Macau will be permitted or feasible.

        Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.    Wynn Resorts is subject to regulations imposed by the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or the FCPA, which generally prohibits U.S. companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Any determination that Wynn Resorts has violated the FCPA could have a material adverse effect on Wynn Resorts.


Risks Related to the Offering and the Second Mortgage Notes

The liens securing the indebtedness under the credit facilities and FF&E facility generally will be senior to the liens securing the second mortgage notes.

        The second mortgage notes will be secured by second priority liens, subject to permitted liens, permitted collateral releases and applicable law, on substantially all existing and future assets of the issuers, and other subsidiaries of Valvino that guarantee the second mortgage notes other than the collateral securing the FF&E facility, by second priority liens on specified assets of Valvino that are necessary for the development, construction or operation of Le Rêve, by a first priority lien on the secured account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes and by third priority liens on the furniture, fixtures and equipment securing the FF&E facility, other than the aircraft-related collateral. Because Wynn Macau and the Macau-related subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts are owned by Wynn Resorts, which is not a guarantor of the second mortgage notes, the assets consisting of Wynn Resorts' Macau project(s) will not be included in the collateral.

        Because the liens securing the indebtedness under the credit facilities will be prior to the liens securing the second mortgage notes, except with respect to the secured account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes, the second mortgage notes will be effectively

42



subordinated to the indebtedness under the credit facilities, pursuant to which we expect to incur $1.0 billion in principal amount of indebtedness. In addition, the liens on the collateral securing the FF&E facility will be prior to the liens securing the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes upon such collateral. The collateral securing the FF&E facility will consist of, among other things, fixtures and equipment that are integral to the operation of Le Rêve, such as elevators, escalators, heating, vacuum and air conditioning equipment and gaming equipment. Thus, although the FF&E lenders will not have a lien on other components of Le Rêve, such as the real estate and the buildings, upon the occurrence of a default under the FF&E facility, the FF&E lenders will have control of assets that are required for the ordinary course operations of Le Rêve and, therefore may be able to prevent Le Rêve from operating. Accordingly, upon the occurrence of a default, the lenders under our credit facilities and/or the second mortgage note holders may be required to repay the debt under the FF&E facility to ensure that Le Rêve remains open and operating. As a result, for practical purposes, the second mortgage notes may be effectively subordinated to the FF&E facility, as well as the credit facilities. We will also be permitted, under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, to incur substantial additional indebtedness, which may be secured by prior liens on the collateral securing the second mortgage notes, or by assets that are not collateral for the second mortgage notes, all of which will be effectively senior to the second mortgage notes. The indenture also will permit our unrestricted subsidiaries to incur debt, without limitation, provided certain conditions are met, which indebtedness will be structurally senior to the second mortgage notes, as we only have a claim against the equity in our subsidiaries, and not against their assets. See "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Security Interests."

        The liens granted by the guarantors to secure their guarantees of the credit facilities will also be senior to the liens securing the second mortgage note guarantees, and, therefore, the second mortgage note guarantees will also be effectively subordinated to the guarantees of the indebtedness under the credit facilities and all of our guarantors' other senior indebtedness secured by higher priority liens. Under the indenture, the second mortgage note guarantors will be permitted to incur substantial additional indebtedness, which may be secured by liens senior in priority to the liens securing the second mortgage note guarantees.

        In the event of our insolvency or liquidation, or upon any default resulting in the acceleration or a foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, we may not have sufficient assets remaining, after satisfying all of our obligations under the credit facilities and any other senior debt secured by higher priority liens, including the FF&E facility to the extent of the collateral securing that facility, to repay the second mortgage notes or make payments under the second mortgage note guarantees. As holders of junior priority liens, the holders of the second mortgage notes should not expect to receive any payments or distributions under the second mortgage notes or the second mortgage note guarantees until the credit facilities and other senior obligations secured by higher priority liens, including the FF&E facility to the extent of the collateral securing such facility, are repaid in full.

        In addition, the ability of the trustee to exercise remedies under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes will be limited by the provisions of the intercreditor agreements, and by procedural restraints applicable to secured parties generally. The ability of the second mortgage note trustee to exercise remedies will be further limited by restrictions imposed by the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (see "—The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada will impose additional restrictions on foreclosure"), by gaming laws, rules and regulations, (see "—Gaming laws will impose additional restrictions on foreclosure") and by limitations under Nevada law. See "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Events of Default and Remedies."

43



If there is a default, the value of the collateral may not be sufficient to repay both the higher priority creditors and the holders of the second mortgage notes.

        The value of the collateral in the event of liquidation will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. We cannot assure you that the proceeds from the sale or sales of all of such collateral would be sufficient to satisfy the amounts outstanding under the second mortgage notes and other obligations secured by the junior liens, if any, after payment in full of all obligations secured by the higher priority liens on the collateral. If these proceeds were not sufficient to repay amounts outstanding under the notes, then holders of the second mortgage notes, to the extent not repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the collateral, would only have unsecured claims against our remaining assets, which claims would rank equally with all of our general unsecured indebtedness and obligations, including trade payables.

        At the completion of Le Rêve, we expect to have approximately $701.4 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, $250 million outstanding under the delay draw term loan facility and $178.5 million outstanding under the FF&E facility. We also expect to have at such time approximately $49 million of borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility. Under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, we will be permitted to incur substantial additional indebtedness that is secured by first priority liens on the second mortgage note collateral.

Our intercreditor agreements will limit the ability of the holders of the second mortgage notes to control decisions regarding the collateral and to take enforcement action.

        The trustee under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes will enter into an intercreditor agreement with the lenders under the credit facilities and an intercreditor agreement with the lenders under the FF&E facility. The intercreditor agreements will provide for the allocation of rights among the trustee and these lenders with respect to their respective interests in the collateral and the enforcement of these related provisions. Until the indebtedness under the credit facilities, including any refinancings, has been satisfied in full, the lenders under the credit facilities will have the exclusive right to determine the circumstances and manner in which the collateral securing the second mortgage notes and the credit facilities may be disposed of subject, in the case of the FF&E collateral, to the rights of the lenders under the FF&E facility. Similarly, until the indebtedness under the FF&E facility, including any refinancing, has been satisfied in full, the lenders under the FF&E facility will have the exclusive rights to determine the circumstances and manner in which the collateral that secures the FF&E facility, the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes may be disposed. As a result, the lenders under the credit facilities may take actions with respect to the collateral securing the second mortgage notes which holders of the second mortgage notes may disagree with or which may be contrary to the best interests of the holders of the second mortgage notes. In addition:

44


        In addition, pursuant to the intercreditor agreements, the trustee has agreed not to object to a number of important matters and actions taken by the lenders under our credit facilities and the FF&E facility following the filing of a bankruptcy petition. After such filing, the value of your collateral could materially deteriorate and you would be unable to raise an objection. See "Intercreditor Agreements."

        The lenders under the FF&E facility will similarly have the right, without the consents of the second mortgage note holders, to waive conditions to funding under the FF&E facility and to exercise, or not exercise, any remedies with respect to the furniture, fixtures and equipment securing the FF&E facility in such manner and upon such terms as the lenders under the FF&E facility determine.

        The intercreditor agreements will also permit the lenders under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility to make advances under their respective loan facilities to protect, preserve, repair and maintain Le Rêve and their respective security interests. Any advanced amounts will be included in the amounts secured by the liens in favor of an advancing lender with the same priority as regular advances made by the lender under the disbursement agreement. Although these provisions may cause these lenders to make advances which otherwise might not be made and thus facilitate completion of Le Rêve to the benefit of the holders of the second mortgage notes, these advances also could increase the aggregate senior secured claims on Le Rêve, even beyond the maximum commitments of these lenders. This additional indebtedness could increase both the periodic amounts payable on our secured indebtedness and the amounts secured by claims effectively senior the claims of the second mortgage note holders, which could disadvantage the holders of the second mortgage notes.

        Under the intercreditor agreements, until all of the debt payable to the lenders under the credit facilities and, with respect to the collateral securing the FF&E facility, until all debt payable under such facility, has been repaid in full, the holders of the second mortgage notes will be restrained from exercising their remedies following a default. As such, the lenders under the credit facilities and, with respect to the collateral securing the FF&E facility, the lenders under such facility, shall be permitted to exercise their remedies and foreclose their respective liens on the note collateral prior to a foreclosure of the liens securing the second mortgage notes. We cannot assure you that any proceeds of such foreclosure sales will remain to repay the second mortgage notes, or any portion thereof, after application of such proceeds to repay in full the credit facilities and, in the case of the collateral securing the FF&E facilities, repay in full the FF&E facility.

Gaming laws will impose additional restrictions on foreclosure.

        As a result of gaming restrictions, in any foreclosure sale of Le Rêve or the gaming equipment constituting collateral securing the second mortgage notes, the purchaser or the operator of the facility and/or such gaming equipment would need to be licensed to operate the resort's casino under the Nevada gaming laws and regulations. If the trustee acting on behalf of the holders of the second mortgage notes or the lenders under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility purchases Le Rêve and/or such equipment at a foreclosure sale, the trustee

45



or such lenders would not be permitted to continue gaming operations at Le Rêve unless it retained an entity licensed under the Nevada gaming laws to conduct gaming operations at the facility. The holders of the second mortgage notes may have to be licensed or found suitable in any event.

        Because potential bidders who wish to operate the casino must satisfy these gaming regulatory requirements, the number of potential bidders in a foreclosure sale could be less than in foreclosures of other types of facilities, and this requirement may delay the sale of, and may reduce the sales price for, the collateral. The ability to take possession and dispose of the collateral securing the second mortgage notes upon acceleration of the second mortgage notes is likely to be significantly impaired or delayed by applicable bankruptcy law if a bankruptcy case is commenced by or against us prior to a taking of possession or disposition of the collateral securing the second mortgage notes by the trustee for the benefit of the holders of the second mortgage notes.

The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada will impose additional restrictions on foreclosure.

        As a result of restrictions under Nevada law relating to public utilities, it is likely that the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada would first need to approve any action to take possession of and foreclose upon or otherwise dispose of assets that serve as collateral consisting of real property or goods held by Desert Inn Improvement Co., including, without limitation, water rights. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain this approval.

The liens encumbering the collateral securing the second mortgage notes may be eliminated if the liens securing the credit facilities or, in the case of the collateral securing the FF&E facility, the liens securing such facility, are foreclosed first.

        Pursuant to the intercreditor agreements, the lenders under our credit facilities are permitted to foreclose on the liens securing such facility before the second mortgage notes holders. Similarly, the lenders under our FF&E facility are permitted to foreclose on the liens securing such facility before the second mortgage note holders. If the liens securing the credit facilities are foreclosed before the liens securing the second mortgage notes, the liens securing the second mortgage notes on the foreclosed collateral will be terminated. Similarly, if the liens securing the FF&E facility are foreclosed before the liens securing the second mortgage notes, the liens securing the second mortgage notes on the furniture, fixtures and equipment that secures the FF&E facility will be terminated. To prevent foreclosure, we may be motivated to commence voluntary bankruptcy proceedings, or the holders of the second mortgage notes and/or various other interested persons may be motivated to institute bankruptcy proceedings against us. The commencement of such bankruptcy proceedings would expose the holders of the second mortgage notes to certain additional risks. See "—Bankruptcy laws may significantly impair your rights to repossess and dispose of collateral securing the second mortgage notes." The second mortgage notes trustee will agree not to challenge the validity, enforceability or priority of liens on any collateral granted to any lender that is a party to the disbursement agreement. See "Disbursement Agreement" and "Intercreditor Agreements."

Because we have multiple lenders, holders of the second mortgage notes may be disadvantaged by actions taken by one or more of our other lenders.

        Multiple parties will be providing financing for the construction and development of Le Rêve, including the lenders under the credit facilities and under the FF&E facility and the holders of the second mortgage notes. Our various lenders will enter into various agreements,

46



including the disbursement agreement and the intercreditor agreements, which govern the relationships among them.

        For example, under the disbursement agreement, the construction consultant engaged by the lenders will review disbursement requests and other matters under the disbursement agreement to assess compliance or non-compliance with the requirements under the disbursement agreement. Accordingly, such construction consultant will be making judgments from time to time which may affect, and perhaps impair, the interests of the holders of the second mortgage notes.

        The disbursement agreement and the intercreditor agreements will also provide that in certain circumstances, after the proceeds of the second mortgage notes have been fully advanced and, prior to completion of Le Rêve, the agent under the credit facilities may waive various defaults and conditions to funding under the disbursement agreement without the consent of the holders of second mortgage notes. Any such waivers could, among other things, allow us to continue to receive disbursements under the disbursement agreement even though we are in default or have failed to satisfy contractual conditions. Any such waiver could increase the amount of our indebtedness that is effectively senior to the second mortgage notes notwithstanding that construction of Le Rêve is not progressing as planned and our ability to complete Le Rêve is impaired.

        We cannot assure you that each lender will perform its obligations under the disbursement agreement. Failure of any one or more of the lenders to fund its obligations under the disbursement agreement, or otherwise to comply with the terms of the disbursement agreement or the other pertinent agreements, would deprive us of the funds necessary to complete Le Rêve and generate revenue and would therefore have a substantial negative effect on us.

        Further, given that we are required to expend all of the proceeds of the second mortgage notes before obtaining any loans under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility, the second mortgage note holders would be fully exposed if, at any time, the lenders under our credit facilities or under our FF&E facility failed to fund as required under the disbursement agreement.

        In addition, financing by multiple lenders with security interests in common collateral or collateral that is interrelated by use or location may result in increased complexity and lack of flexibility in a debt restructuring or other work-out of the issuers and the restricted entities. Pursuant to the intercreditor agreement among the lenders under our credit facilities, the lenders under the FF&E facility and the trustee on behalf of the second mortgage note holders, the lenders under the FF&E facility have agreed to, subject to various limitations, upon the occurrence of an event of default under such facility, refrain from the exercise of remedies for a period of up to 60 days before completion of Le Rêve or 45 days after completion of Le Rêve. We cannot assure you that the lenders under the FF&E facility will respect such obligations or, even if they do respect such obligations, such standstill period will be sufficient to restructure or achieve a work out of our debt. If such event of default is not cured within such standstill period, the lenders under our FF&E facility will be permitted to exercise remedies against their collateral, including removing elevators, escalators, air conditioning units and similar equipment so as to prevent Le Rêve from operating.

We may not be able to fulfill our repurchase obligations with respect to the second mortgage notes upon a change of control.

        If we experience certain specific change of control events, we will be required to offer to repurchase all outstanding second mortgage notes at 101% of the principal amount of the

47



second mortgage notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. Any change of control may also constitute a default under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility. Therefore, upon the occurrence of a change of control, the lenders under the credit facilities and FF&E facility may have the right to accelerate their loans and we would be required to prepay all of our outstanding obligations under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility. We cannot assure you that we will have available funds sufficient to pay the change of control purchase price for any or all of the second mortgage notes that might be delivered by holders of the second mortgage notes seeking to accept the change of control offer. In addition, certain important corporate events, such as leveraged recapitalizations that would increase the level of our indebtedness, would not constitute a "change of control" under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes. See "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control" and "Description of Other Indebtedness—Credit Facilities."

        In addition, the credit facilities will contain, and any future credit agreement likely will contain, restrictions or prohibitions on our ability to repurchase the second mortgage notes under certain circumstances. If these change of control events occur at a time when we are prohibited from repurchasing the second mortgage notes, we may seek the consent of our lenders to purchase the second mortgage notes or could attempt to refinance the borrowings that contain these prohibitions or restrictions. If we do not obtain our lenders' consent or refinance these borrowings, we will not be able to repurchase the second mortgage notes. Accordingly, the holders of the second mortgage notes may not receive the change of control purchase price for their second mortgage notes in the event of a sale or other change of control, which will give the trustee and the holders of the second mortgage notes the right to declare an event of default and accelerate the repayment of the second mortgage notes. Please see "Description of Second Mortgage Notes—Events of Default." An event of default under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes also would constitute an event of default under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility.

Bankruptcy laws may significantly impair your rights to repossess and dispose of collateral securing the second mortgage notes.

        If a bankruptcy case were to be commenced by or against us prior to the repossession and disposition of note collateral, the right of the indenture trustee to repossess and dispose of the note collateral upon the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture is likely to be significantly impaired by applicable bankruptcy law. A bankruptcy case may be commenced by us, a holder of second mortgage notes, the lenders under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility or any other creditors, including junior creditors.

        The "automatic stay" under applicable bankruptcy law prohibits secured creditors, such as the holders of the second mortgage notes and the lenders under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility, from repossessing their security from a debtor in a bankruptcy case, or from disposing of collateral in their possession, without bankruptcy court approval. Moreover, applicable bankruptcy law permits the debtor to continue to retain and use the collateral even though the debtor is in default under the applicable debt instruments, provided that the secured creditor is given "adequate protection."

        The meaning of the term "adequate protection" may vary according to circumstances, but it is generally intended to protect the value of the secured creditor's interest in the collateral from diminution as a result of the stay of repossession or disposition or any use of the collateral by the debtor during the pendency of the bankruptcy case. "Adequate protection" may include cash payments or the granting of additional security, of such type, at such time and in such amount as the court may determine. For example, the debtor could be permitted

48



use the funds in the second mortgage notes proceeds account as cash collateral if the debtor provided adequate protection for such use by granting replacement liens on other collateral, which might not consist of liquid assets.

        In view of the lack of a precise definition of the term "adequate protection," the broad discretionary powers of a bankruptcy court and the possible complexity of valuation issues, it is impossible to predict how long payments under the second mortgage notes could be delayed following commencement of a bankruptcy case, whether or when the trustee could repossess or dispose of the collateral or whether or to what extent, through the requirement of "adequate protection," the holders of the second mortgage notes would be compensated for any delay in payment or loss of value of the collateral.

        Factors that might bear on the recovery by the holders of the second mortgage notes in these circumstances, among others, would include:

        In addition, pursuant to the intercreditor agreements, the trustee has agreed not to object to a number of important matters and actions taken by the lenders under our credit facilities and the FF&E facility following the filing of a bankruptcy petition. After such filing, the value of your collateral could materially deteriorate and you would be unable to raise an objection. The agreements of the trustee include that the trustee and the second mortgage note holders will not assert the task of adequate protection of their liens and the collateral securing the second mortgage notes as a basis for approving a motion or other relief approved by the lenders under the credit facilities. See "Intercreditor Agreements."

Contract rights under agreements serving as collateral for the second mortgage notes may be rejected in bankruptcy.

        Among other things, contract rights under certain of our agreements serve as collateral for the second mortgage notes, including rights that stem from the agreements to which we are a party, such as the Marnell Corrao construction contract. If a bankruptcy case were to be commenced by or against Marnell Corrao, it is possible that all or part of the Marnell Corrao construction contract could be rejected by that party or a trustee appointed in the bankruptcy case pursuant to Section 365 or Section 1123 of the United States Bankruptcy Code and thus not be specifically enforceable. Additionally, to the extent any rejected agreement constitutes a lease of real property, the resulting claim of the lessor for damages resulting from termination may be capped pursuant to Section 502(b)(6) of the bankruptcy code.

        In addition, in a bankruptcy proceeding, the court would have broad discretion to approve transactions that could disadvantage the holders of the second mortgage notes. For example, under certain circumstances, a court could approve our or third parties' motions for sales of collateral on terms unfavorable to us, require us to accept subordinated or other securities in exchange for the second mortgage notes, or substantive consolidation of us with Wynn Resorts in a bankruptcy in which Wynn Resorts was debtor. Regardless of the disposition of

49



any of these or other motions or claims, we cannot assure you that during litigation of these issues our payments on the second mortgage notes would be paid in full or on time.

In the event that a bankruptcy court orders the substantive consolidation of Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital with certain affiliated parties, payments on the second mortgage notes could be delayed or reduced.

        Although we believe that we have observed and will observe certain formalities and operating procedures that are generally recognized requirements for maintaining the separate existence of the issuers and that the issuers' assets and liabilities can be readily identified as distinct from those of Wynn Resorts, Valvino and their respective subsidiaries other than Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital, we cannot assure you that a bankruptcy court would agree, in the event that any of Wynn Resorts, Valvino or any such other affiliates becomes a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code. If a bankruptcy court concludes that substantive consolidation of Wynn Las Vegas or Wynn Capital with any affiliated party referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph is warranted, the risks described above under "Bankruptcy laws may significantly impair your rights to repossess and dispose of collateral securing the second mortgage notes" would apply as a result of such bankruptcy filing, notwithstanding that Wynn Las Vegas is successfully operating Le Rêve and is able to pay its obligations as they become due. If substantive consolidation is ordered, payments on the second mortgage notes could be delayed or reduced.

Releases of collateral securing, or guarantees of, the second mortgage notes or requirements for additional guarantees may be controlled, under some circumstances, by the agent under the credit facilities.

        The indenture for the second mortgage notes will provide specified conditions for the release of the golf course land and related water rights and the 20-acre parcel located next to the Le Rêve site. See "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Release of Golf Course Land and Phase II Land." Under certain circumstances, the collateral agent for the credit facilities will be permitted to waive these conditions and release these items of collateral without any action on the part of the trustee or any holder of second mortgage notes if the agent under the credit facilities releases the lien on that collateral securing the credit facilities. For example, the credit facility and indenture will provide that the liens with respect to the golf course land will be released after the third anniversary of commencing operations at Le Rêve, and once we have achieved a total debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ratio of 3.0 to 1.0 or less and if the credit facilities are rated BB+ or higher by Standard & Poor's and Ba1 or higher by Moody's Investors Service immediately after giving effect to the release.

        Separately, under the credit facilities, certain portions of the golf course parcel will be released from the liens on the golf course land and related water rights to permit residential or other non-gaming related development if we satisfy certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization targets for a period of four consecutive calendar quarters after Le Rêve opens, so long as the development or construction will not interfere with the use of the golf course and otherwise could not reasonably be expected to materially impair the overall value of Le Rêve. In addition, the credit facilities will provide that two acres of the golf course parcel will be released from the liens to permit the construction of a home for Mr. Wynn, so long as the construction will not interfere with the use of the golf course and otherwise could not reasonably be expected to materially impair the overall value of Le Rêve, and Mr. Wynn pays us fair market value for the property. Upon release by the representative

50



for the lenders under the credit facilities of these portions of the golf course, the trustee for the note holders will automatically release their second priority liens on that property as well.

        Finally, the credit facilities will provide that the liens on the 20-acre parcel fronting Las Vegas Boulevard adjacent to the site of Le Rêve will be released by representatives for the lenders under the credit facilities if we meet certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization targets for four consecutive calendar quarters after the commencement of operations at Le Rêve. In addition, the representatives of the lenders, by action of a specified percentage of the lenders, may release the liens on the 20-acre parcel if we meet certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization targets for two consecutive calendar quarters after the commencement of operations at Le Rêve. Upon such release by the representatives for the lenders, the trustee for the note holders will automatically release their second priority liens on the 20-acre parcel.

        Upon release by the trustee and bank representative, the golf course parcel, or portions of such parcel, and the 20-acre parcel will not be available as security for the second mortgage notes or the indebtedness under the credit facilities. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness—Our indebtedness will be secured by a substantial portion, but not all, of our assets."

Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to avoid guarantees and the liens securing the guarantees and to require second mortgage note holders to return payments received from us or the guarantors.

        Our creditors or the creditors of our guarantors could challenge the second mortgage note guarantees and the liens securing those guarantees as fraudulent conveyances or on other grounds. Under the federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, the delivery of the guarantees and the grant of the second priority liens securing the guarantees could be avoid as fraudulent transfers if a court determined that the guarantor, at the time it incurred the indebtedness evidenced by its guarantee or granted its lien:

        If the guarantees were avoided or limited under fraudulent transfer or other laws, any claim you may make against us for amounts payable on the second mortgage notes would be structurally subordinated to all of the indebtedness and other obligations of our guarantors, including trade payables and any subordinated indebtedness. If the granting of liens to secure the guarantees were avoided or limited under fraudulent transfer or other laws, the guarantees would become unsecured claims to the extent of the avoidance or limitation, ranking equally with general unsecured claims of the guarantors.

51



        The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a guarantor would be considered insolvent if:

        On the basis of historical financial information, recent operating history and other factors, we believe that each guarantor, after giving effect to its guarantee of the second mortgage notes, will not be insolvent, will not have unreasonably small capital for the business in which it is engaged and will not have incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. We cannot assure you, however, as to what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or that a court would agree with our conclusions in this regard.

Any additional guarantees or liens on collateral provided after the second mortgage notes are issued could also be avoided as preferential transfers.

        The second mortgage notes indenture will provide that certain future restricted subsidiaries will guarantee the second mortgage notes and secure their guarantees with liens on their assets. The second mortgage notes indenture will also require us to grant liens on certain assets we and the existing guarantors acquire after the second mortgage notes are issued. If any new guarantor, or any issuer or guarantor providing new collateral for the second mortgage notes, is insolvent or anticipates insolvency at the time the guarantee or lien is granted, the guarantee or lien, as applicable, could be avoided as a preferential transfer.

We are permitted to create unrestricted subsidiaries, which generally will not be subject to any of the covenants in the indenture and we may not be able to rely on the cash flow or assets of those unrestricted subsidiaries to pay our indebtedness.

        Unrestricted subsidiaries will generally not be subject to the covenants under the second mortgage notes indenture, and their assets will not be available as security for the second mortgage notes. Unrestricted subsidiaries may enter into financing arrangements that limit their ability to make loans or other payments to fund payments in respect of the second mortgage notes. Accordingly, we may not be able to rely on the cash flow or assets of unrestricted subsidiaries to pay any of our indebtedness, including the second mortgage notes.

The collateral securing the second mortgage notes includes real property and, as a result, holders of the second mortgage notes may be subject to certain environmental risks.

        Real property pledged as security may be subject to known and unknown environmental risks or liabilities which can adversely affect the property's value. In addition, under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, as amended, referred to as CERCLA, a secured lender may be held liable, in certain limited circumstances, for the costs of remediating a release of, or preventing a threatened release of, hazardous substances at a mortgaged property. There may be similar risks under state laws or common law theories.

52



        Under CERCLA, a person "who, without participating in the management of a ... facility, holds indicia of ownership primarily to protect his security interest" is not a property owner, and thus not a responsible person under CERCLA. Lenders seldom have been held liable under CERCLA. The lenders who have been found liable generally have been found to have been sufficiently involved in the mortgagor's operations so that they have "participated in the management of the borrower." CERCLA does not specify the level of actual participation in management. CERCLA was amended in 1996 to provide certain "safe harbors" for foreclosing lenders. However, the courts have not yet issued any definitive interpretations of the extent of these safe harbors. There currently is no controlling authority on this matter.

There is no public market for the second mortgage notes, and we cannot be sure that a market for the second mortgage notes will develop.

        The second mortgage notes are a new issue of securities for which there is currently no active trading market. Although the underwriters have informed us that they intend to make a market in the second mortgage notes, they have no obligation to do so and may discontinue their market-making activity at any time without notice.

        If any of the second mortgage notes are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities and other factors, including general economic conditions, our financial condition, performance and prospects and prospects for companies in our industry generally. In addition, the liquidity of the trading market in the second mortgage notes and the market prices quoted for the second mortgage notes may be negatively affected by changes in the overall market for high-yield securities. As a result, we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop for the second mortgage notes.

The officers, directors and substantial stockholders of Wynn Resorts may be able to exert significant control over its and our future direction.

        Wynn Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas. Wynn Las Vegas is a Nevada limited liability company, the sole member of which is Wynn Golf Course. Valvino is the sole member of Wynn Golf Course. When the members of Valvino contribute their membership interests in Valvino to Wynn Resorts in exchange for shares of the common stock of Wynn Resorts, Wynn Resorts will become the sole member of Valvino. As a result, upon consummation of this offering and the offering of Wynn Resorts' common stock, Wynn Resorts will, through its subsidiaries, control Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital.

        After this offering and the offering of Wynn Resorts' common stock, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA will own approximately      % and      %, respectively, of Wynn Resorts' outstanding common stock. As a result, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA, to the extent they vote their shares in a similar manner, effectively will be able to control all matters requiring Wynn Resorts' stockholders' approval, including the approval of significant corporate transactions.

        In addition, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA, together with Baron Asset Fund, have entered into a stockholders agreement. Under the stockholders agreement, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA have agreed to vote their shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock for a slate of directors, a majority of which will be designated by Mr. Wynn, of which at least two will be independent directors, and the remaining members of which will be designated by Aruze USA. As a result of this voting arrangement, Mr. Wynn may, as a practical matter, control Wynn Resorts' board of directors. The stockholders agreement will continue to be in effect after the completion of this offering. For more information about the stockholders agreement between Mr. Wynn, Aruze

USA and Baron Asset Fund, see "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Stockholders Agreement."

We may redeem your second mortgage notes due to regulatory considerations, either as required by gaming authorities or in our discretion.

        The indenture will grant us the power to redeem the second mortgage notes from a person who owns or controls these second mortgage notes if any governmental gaming authority requires a holder or beneficial owner of second mortgage notes to be licensed, qualified or found suitable under any applicable gaming law and:

        Under the foregoing circumstances, under the indenture, we will be able to redeem, and if required by the applicable gaming authority, we must redeem, that person's second mortgage notes to the extent required by the gaming authority or deemed necessary or advisable by us. The redemption price will be, in each case, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the second mortgage note, equal to:

USE OF PROCEEDS

        We expect to receive approximately $335.7 million in net proceeds from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. Concurrently with the consummation of this offering:

(1)
Wynn Resorts will consummate an initial public offering of its common stock. We expect Wynn Resorts to receive approximately $363.5 million in net proceeds from the initial public offering (based on the number of shares and an assumed offering price equal to the mid-point of the price range set forth on the cover of the preliminary prospectus relating thereto), after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. Wynn Resorts will contribute to Wynn Las Vegas that portion of its existing cash plus net proceeds from the initial public offering that is necessary, together with borrowings under our indebtedness, to fund the project costs of Le Rêve. Additionally, if the underwriters for the initial public offering exercise their over-allotment option in full, we expect Wynn Resorts' net proceeds from the over-allotment exercise to be approximately $55.1 million. Wynn Resorts may, at its option, contribute those funds to us for our use, but is under no obligation to do so.

(2)
We will enter into a $750.0 million revolving credit facility, a $250.0 million delay draw term loan facility and a $178.5 million FF&E facility. We have received commitments for the credit facility and the delay draw term loan. We have entered into an engagement letter with respect to the FF&E facility, which is currently being syndicated. See "Description of Other Indebtedness."

        We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with equity contributions from Wynn Resorts' and initial public offering proceeds and existing cash and borrowings under the revolving credit facility, delay draw term loan facility and FF&E facility to design, develop, construct, equip and open Le Rêve. None of the proceeds of this offering will be used to fund the construction and development of Wynn Macau's casinos in Macau. The disbursement agreement will require that project costs be funded first from contributions to us from Wynn Resorts, then from the net proceeds of this offering and then from the other debt facilities.

        The net proceeds of this offering will be deposited in a secured account pending disbursement. The funds in the secured account will be invested at our discretion only in cash, cash equivalents and certain permitted investments. The trustee under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, for the benefit of the holders of the second mortgage notes, will have a first priority security interest in the net proceeds held in the secured account.

        We expect that the funds provided by these sources and available cash will be sufficient to develop, design, construct, equip and open Le Rêve and to pay interest on borrowings under the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage notes until the scheduled opening of Le Rêve, assuming there are no significant delay costs or construction cost overruns for which we are responsible. We believe that the construction budget for Le Rêve is reasonable, but given the risks inherent in the construction process, it is possible that the costs of developing and constructing Le Rêve could be significantly higher. See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction of Le Rêve," "—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness," and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

        The following table sets forth estimated sources and uses, by Wynn Las Vegas and the guarantor entities, of funds to design, construct, develop, equip and open Le Rêve and for

57



other operations related primarily to the Le Rêve project. The table assumes that the financing transactions, including this offering, close on September 30, 2002. For purposes of calculating total construciton costs, the revolving credit facility balance and interest and commitment fees, this table also includes certain final construciton cost payments that we assume will be made after the opening of Le Rêve.

Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Golf Course and Valvino have entered into a commitment letter with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and certain of their affiliates for a $750.0 million revolving credit facility and a $250.0 million delay draw term loan facility. See "Description of Other Indebtedness." These facilities will close concurrently with the closing of this offering. We expect to begin to borrow under these facilities, subject to satisfaction of the conditions in the disbursement agreement, approximately 16-19 months after the consummation of this offering and after expending all of the net proceeds of this offering. We anticipate that we will borrow approximately $701.4 million of the $750.0 million available under the revolving credit facility and the full $250.0 million available under the term loan facility to fund design, development, construction, equipping and opening of Le Rêve, assuming that Le Rêve opens within budget and on schedule.

(2)
Wynn Las Vegas has entered into an engagement letter with Bank of America, N.A., Banc of America Leasing & Capital LLC and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. for a $178.5 million FF&E facility, which is currently being syndicated. This facility will close concurrently with the closing of this offering. Wynn Las Vegas intends to use approximately $28.5 million of borrowings under the FF&E facility to refinance a loan made by Bank of America, N.A. to World Travel, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valvino. The Bank of America loan is secured by an

(3)
We expect to begin to request disbursements of the second mortgage note proceeds, subject to satisfaction of the conditions in the disbursement agreement, approximately ten to twelve months after the consummation of this offering.

(4)
Represents contributions of a portion of (a) Valvino member net contributions from inception of approximately $586.1 million and (b) the anticipated net proceeds from Wynn Resorts' initial public offering of approximately $363.5 million.

(5)
Represents interest earned at the estimated LIBOR rate on our estimated cash balance through the scheduled opening of Le Rêve. Estimates of the LIBOR rate are based on current market projections of the LIBOR rate ranging from 2% to 4%. Interest income shown has not been adjusted for taxes that will be payable on those amounts. Depending on the extent to which our expenses must be capitalized into the construction project rather than deducted currently, we may owe corporate income tax on our interest income. In addition, because of the large percentage of Wynn Resorts' outstanding stock that will be owned directly or indirectly by a small number of individuals, our interest income may also be subject to federal personal holding company taxes during the period before Le Rêve commences operations. Any such taxes that become payable would increase the usage of the revolving credit facility.

(6)
Consists of net income from incidental operations, including operation of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino by Valvino before the casino was closed, operation of the golf course on the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino through June 30, 2002 and the collection of accounts receivable following the acquisition of the previous facility at the site.

(7)
Represents the guaranteed maximum price of construction of Le Rêve under the construction contract and includes an owner's contingency of approximately $7.6 million. The construction contract contains financial incentives for Marnell Corrao to complete Le Rêve before the deadline set forth in the construction contract, as well as liquidated damages payable to us for certain unexcused delays. See "Construction Contracts for Le Rêve—Construction of the Hotel/Casino—Early or Late Completion." The guaranteed maximum price under the construction contract is subject to adjustment under various circumstances which could increase our costs. See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction."

(8)
Represents estimated insurance costs for builder's risk insurance, fees and reserves related to our insurance program, umbrella and excess liability insurance and design professional liability insurance. We may need to incur additional insurance costs in the future.

(9)
Represents the owner's contingency with respect to the portions of the project not covered by the construction contract. This amount does not include the owner's contingency of approximately $7.6 million under the construction contract.

(10)
Represents amounts previously expended to acquire land for the project, including the golf course land, buildings and water rights.

(11)
Represents the cost of creating, designing and producing the Franco Dragone water show.

(12)
Consists primarily of operating costs of the previous facility at the site before closure of that facility and facility closure expenditures.

(13)
Represents (a) a purchase price of $38.2 million for our corporate aircraft, of which approximately $9.7 million was paid in cash at the time of purchase and $28.5 million was represented by a loan from Bank of America, N.A (see footnote (2) above) and (b) approximately $0.5 million in principal repayments on the Bank of America loan anticipated to be made prior to the closing of this offering. Borrowings under the FF&E facility, but not proceeds from this offering, will be used to repay the outstanding balance of this loan.

(14)
Includes interest expense on the second mortgage notes, and expected interest expense and commitment fees on the revolving credit facility, the term loan facility and FF&E facility through the scheduled opening date. Interest on the revolving credit facility, the term loan facility and FF&E facility has been computed assuming a LIBOR rate ranging from 2% to 4%, plus the applicable margin, which is a 4% margin for the revolving credit facility and the FF&E facility and a 4.25% margin for the delay draw term loan facility.

59


(15)
Represents the operating cash needed to open Le Rêve, including purchasing the initial retail inventory and food and beverage inventory.

(16)
Wynn Resorts will contribute $50.0 million of the net proceeds of Wynn Resorts' initial public offering to a special purpose entity formed with the intention of being bankruptcy-remote. This special purpose subsidiary will use these funds to provide a $50.0 million completion guarantee in favor of the lenders under the credit facilities and the second mortgage note holders in connection with the construction and opening of Le Rêve.

(17)
Wynn Resorts will contribute $30.0 million of the net proceeds of Wynn Resorts' initial public offering to Wynn Las Vegas, which will be placed in a liquidity reserve account to be used in case there are not sufficient funds to complete Le Rêve. The liquidity reserve account will be pledged to the lenders under the credit facilities and the second mortgage note holders.

(18)
Includes fees and expenses related to (a) this offering and (b) the revolving credit facility, the term loan facility and the FF&E facility.

Wynn Las Vegas intends to use approximately $28.5 million of borrowings under the FF&E facility to refinance a loan made by Bank of America, N.A. to World Travel, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valvino. The Bank of America loan is secured by an aircraft mortgage on World Travel's Bombardier Global Express aircraft and calls for 47 monthly principal payments of $158,333 commencing March 1, 2003 and the payment of the approximately $21.1 million remaining principal on March 1, 2007. See "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Aircraft Arrangements."

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS OF WYNN RESORTS

        Wynn Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas. Wynn Las Vegas is a Nevada limited liability company, the sole member of which is Wynn Golf Course. Wynn Group Nevada, LLC is the sole member of Wynn Resorts Holdings. Valvino is the sole member of Wynn Group Nevada. When the members of Valvino contribute their membership interests in Valvino to Wynn Resorts in exchange for shares of the common stock of Wynn Resorts, Wynn Resorts will become the sole member of Valvino. As a result, upon consummation of this offering and the offering of Wynn Resorts' common stock, Wynn Resorts will, through its subsidiaries, control Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital.

        Stephen A. Wynn.    From 1973 until 2000, Mr. Wynn served as the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mirage Resorts and its predecessor. Mr. Wynn has more than thirty years of experience in the gaming, hotel and tourism industries as a designer, developer and operator of hotel casino resorts. During his tenure, he led the design and development of the following five hotel casino resorts properties: Bellagio, The Mirage, Treasure Island at The Mirage, Atlantic City Golden Nugget and Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi. Mr. Wynn also worked to redesign and expand several other hotel casino resort properties, such as the Golden Nugget—Las Vegas and the Golden Nugget—Laughlin. The public filings and press releases of Mirage Resorts and MGM Mirage report that in fiscal year 1999, the last full year of Mr. Wynn's tenure with Mirage Resorts, the company had grown to own and operate eight hotel casino resort properties totaling 630,000 square feet of casino gaming space and 16,577 hotel rooms that generated approximately $2.4 billion in revenue, $573 million in earnings before depreciation, interest, taxes and pre-opening costs and $110.4 million in net income.

        The hotel casino resorts created by Mirage Resorts during Mr. Wynn's tenure are each marked by unique features. In 1989, Mr. Wynn oversaw the creation of the first mega-resort in Las Vegas with the introduction of The Mirage. The Mirage is based on a South Seas theme and features a fifty-four foot "active" volcano, a dolphin habitat and an illusionist show performed by Siegfried and Roy. The Caribbean-inspired Treasure Island at The Mirage, built in 1993, features a pirate village with full-scale replicas of a pirate ship and British frigate, which engage in a special effects battle. Bellagio, a European-style luxury resort completed in 1998, is marked by its eight-acre lake of dancing fountains inspired by Lake Como of Northern Italy, as well as the show "O" produced and performed by the Cirque du Soleil organization.

        Under Mr. Wynn, Mirage Resorts was ranked as the second most admired company in the United States in the March 3, 1997 issue of Fortune magazine. In that issue, Fortune magazine also ranked Mirage Resorts as the fourth best company in the United States in quality of management. During Mr. Wynn's tenure, Mirage Resorts was successful in attracting and retaining top quality employees; Mirage Resorts grew to approximately 30,000 employees by 2000. In 2000, Mirage Resorts was sold to MGM Grand, Inc. for approximately $6.4 billion.

        Aruze USA.    Aruze USA, a Nevada corporation, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aruze Corp., a Japanese manufacturer of pachislot and pachinko machines and video game software. As of August 16, 2002, Aruze Corp. had a market capitalization of approximately ¥221 billion, or approximately $1.9 billion. Kazuo Okada, who founded Aruze Corp. in 1969, now holds a controlling interest in Aruze Corp. and serves as its president. Aruze Corp. is a Japanese corporation traded on the JASDAQ system (NASDAQ Japan). After beginning his career in the juke box and pachinko machine businesses, Mr. Okada continued his business pursuits in the gaming machine manufacturing industry and is credited with creating the pachislot machine. Unlike a typical slot machine, where the reels stop on their own after the player pulls the machine's "arm" to start the rotation of the reels, a pachislot machine player

63



stops each individual reel by pushing a button in front of that reel. The pachislot machine has grown to be very popular in Japan. To date, Aruze Corp. has sold more than 1 million pachislot machine units. Aruze Corp. is now the largest manufacturer of pachislot machines in Japan and holds a significant share of Japan's pachislot machine market in terms of annual sales.

        Baron Asset Fund.    Baron Asset Fund, a Massachusetts business trust, is comprised of four fund series, each of which is a publicly traded registered mutual fund managed by BAMCO, Inc., a New York corporation. Together, these fund series hold total assets equal to almost $5 billion. Baron Asset Fund holds shares of Wynn Resorts on behalf of two of the fund series: the Baron Asset Fund Series and the Baron Growth Fund Series. Ron Baron is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Baron Asset Fund and BAMCO.

The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 and the year ended December 31, 2001 and the period from inception to December 31, 2000, and the independent auditors' report thereon, are included elsewhere in this prospectus. The selected data presented below as of June 30, 2002 and for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and the period from inception to June 30, 2002, is derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements of Valvino and its subsidiaries, which are included elsewhere in this prospectus.

        In connection with this offering, the current subsidiaries that will not guarantee the second mortgage notes, including Wynn Macau, will be transferred to Wynn Resorts and thus will no longer be subsidiaries of Valvino.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the historical financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this prospectus, including information with respect to our plans and strategies for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. You should review the "Risk Factors" set forth elsewhere in this prospectus for a discussion of important factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained herein. See "Forward-Looking Statements."

Development Activities

        Valvino was organized in April 2000. Wynn Resorts was formed in June 2002, and before the consummation of this offering and the offering of common stock by Wynn Resorts, Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA, Baron Asset Fund and the Kenneth R. Wynn Family Trust will contribute their Valvino membership interests to Wynn Resorts in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Wynn Resorts. Since Valvino's formation, our activities have been limited principally to arranging the design, construction and financing of Le Rêve and applying for certain permits, licenses and approvals necessary for the development and operation of Le Rêve. Wynn Resorts plans to develop, construct and operate Le Rêve as part of a world-class destination casino resort which, together with the new golf course located behind the hotel, will occupy approximately 192 acres of a 212-acre parcel of land at a premier location on the Las Vegas Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada. The site is the former location of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino. We expect Le Rêve to commence operations in March 2005.

Financial Statements Included in the Registration Statement

        The separate financial statements of Wynn Macau, acquired by Valvino in April 2002, are not included in this registration statement as none of the significant subsidiary tests as provided for in the applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission are met.

        The historical financial statements of Desert Inn Resort & Casino are not included herein because management acquired the assets of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino with the intent to construct a new business rather than acquiring an ongoing business with a continuing revenue stream.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

        The consolidated financial statements of Valvino and its subsidiaries were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Certain of our accounting policies, including the estimated lives of our depreciable assets, the evaluation of assets for impairment and the purchase price allocations made in connection with acquisitions, require that management apply significant judgment in defining the appropriate assumptions integral to financial estimates. Judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, industry trends, and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. However, by their nature, judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and therefore actual results could differ from our estimates.

66



Results of Operations

        We have had no significant operations to date. In June 2000, we acquired the Desert Inn Resort & Casino assets from Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. We ceased operating the Desert Inn Resort & Casino after approximately ten weeks. We have demolished some of the buildings constituting the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino hotel in anticipation of the construction of Le Rêve. The remaining structures have been and will continue to be utilized as offices at least through the completion of Le Rêve. Since we ceased operating the Desert Inn Resort & Casino, our efforts have been devoted principally to the development activities described above with respect to Le Rêve and Wynn Macau's opportunity in Macau. In addition, we continue to operate an art gallery displaying works from The Wynn Collection, which consists of artwork from the personal art collection of Stephen and Elaine Wynn, and, until summer 2002, the golf course located on the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino. Our historical operating results will not be indicative of future operating results.

        As a result of increased development activities, Valvino recognized a net loss accumulated during the development stage of approximately $16.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, an approximate increase of 85% from the loss incurred during the period from inception (April 21, 2000) to December 2000 of approximately $9.2 million.

        Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001 increased approximately $920,000 from the period from inception to December 31, 2000 primarily as a result of Kevyn, LLC, which Valvino acquired in April 2001, leasing its aircraft to Las Vegas Jet, LLC, then an unconsolidated affiliate, for approximately $840,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001. In addition, revenues of approximately $80,000 were recognized for the year ended December 31, 2001, primarily as a result of the art gallery and retail shop opening in November 2001.

        Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 increased approximately $9.6 million as compared to the period from inception to December 31, 2000 primarily as a result of increased pre-opening costs and depreciation and amortization expenses which were partially offset by lower facility closure expense and losses from incidental operations. This resulted in an increase in net operating losses of approximately $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to the period from inception to December 31, 2000.

        Pre-opening costs for the year ended December 31, 2001 increased approximately $6.5 million, as compared to the period from inception to December 31, 2000 primarily as a result of increased pre-opening activities and approximately four additional months of costs being recognized during the year ended December 31, 2001 than in the period from inception to December 31, 2000. Similarly, depreciation and amortization recognized for the year ended December 31, 2001 reflects 12 months of expenses as compared to approximately eight months of expenses recognized in the period from inception to December 31, 2000. This resulted in increased depreciation and amortization expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 of approximately $4.3 million.

        Facility closure expenses were approximately $830,000 less for the year ended December 31, 2001, as compared to the period from inception to December 31, 2000, primarily because a majority of the costs incurred for the period from inception to December 31, 2000 related to the closing of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino, which was completed in August 2000. During the period from inception to December 31, 2000, Valvino recognized a net loss from

67



incidental operations of approximately $1.2 million as compared to no recognized net loss for the year ended December 31, 2001. The net loss in 2000 was attributable to the incidental casino and hotel operations incurred prior to its closing in August 2000.

        Other income—net increased approximately $920,000 from the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to the period from inception to December 31, 2000 primarily as a result of an approximate $930,000 increase in interest income in 2001. Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2001 reflects interest earned for the 12-month period whereas interest income for the period from inception to December 31, 2000 reflects interest earned for approximately eight months.

        Continued development activities resulted in a net loss during the development stage for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was approximately $14.7 million as compared to an approximate $7.9 million net loss accumulated during the development stage for the six months ended June 2001.

        Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased approximately $54,000 from the six months ended June 30, 2001 as a result of decreased airplane lease revenue recognized in the 2002 period than the 2001 period. Airplane lease revenues decreased primarily as a result of the sale of the aircraft at the end of March 2002. This decrease in revenues was partially offset by revenues from the art gallery and the retail shop, which were opened in November 2001.

        Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased approximately $6.1 million as compared to the same period in 2001 primarily due to an approximate $4.2 million increase in pre-opening costs and the recognition of approximately $2.1 million of losses on the acquisition of affiliates during the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase in pre-opening costs is directly attributable to an increase in pre-opening activities as compared to the same period in the prior year. Management expects pre-opening costs to continue to increase as development of Le Rêve progresses. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, Valvino acquired an affiliate, Las Vegas Jet, and forgave amounts receivable from Las Vegas Jet, which resulted in the recognition of a loss on the acquisition.

        Other income—net for the six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased approximately $880,000 from the six months ended June 30, 2001, primarily as a result of an approximate $770,000 decrease in interest income from 2002 to 2001. This reduction in interest income is mainly attributable to lower interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2001.

        The strength and profitability of our business will depend on consumer demand for hotel casino resorts in general and for the type of luxury amenities that Le Rêve will offer. Adverse changes in consumer preferences or discretionary income could harm our business. In particular, the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and ongoing terrorist and war activities in the United States and elsewhere, have had a negative impact on travel and leisure expenditures, including lodging, gaming and tourism. In addition to fears of war and future acts of terrorism, other factors affecting discretionary consumer spending, including general economic conditions, disposable consumer income, fears of recession and consumer

68


confidence in the economy, could reduce customer demand for the products and services we will offer, thus imposing practical limits on pricing and harming our operations.

        While we believe that a nominal decline in the strength of the U.S. economy and the amount of an individual's disposable income would not have a material effect on our results of operations, a material decline in the strength of the U.S. economy and the amount of an individual's disposable income could have a significant impact on our results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Since Valvino's inception on April 21, 2000, there have been a number of transactions that have had a significant impact on Valvino's liquidity. Our operations have required substantial capital investment for the acquisition of the land on which Le Rêve will be located and development of the project.

        Mr. Stephen A. Wynn organized Valvino and, initially, Mr. Wynn was the sole member of Valvino. Between April of 2000 and September of 2000, Mr. Wynn made equity contributions to Valvino in an aggregate amount of approximately $220.7 million. On June 15, 2000, Mr. Wynn loaned Valvino $100 million at an interest rate of 7.875% per year.

        On June 22, 2000, Valvino acquired the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada from Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., including the Desert Inn Resort & Casino golf course and some, but not all, of the residential lots located in the interior of and around the former Desert Inn golf course, for approximately $270 million in cash. In connection with that transaction, Valvino and its subsidiaries also acquired approximately 985 acre-feet of certificated water rights. In addition to acquiring the assets of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino, Valvino assumed all of its liabilities, and, to the extent assignable, all of its contracts. Valvino later acquired all of the remaining lots located in the interior of, and some of the remaining lots around, the former Desert Inn golf course for a total of $47.8 million, bringing the size of the parcel to approximately 212 acres. On August 28, 2000, Valvino closed the hotel and casino at the Desert Inn Resort & Casino site, and has since been engaged primarily in the development of a new resort hotel and casino on the site.

        On July 11, 2000, Valvino used proceeds from a $125 million loan agreement it entered into with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as lead arranger, and Bankers Trust Company, as administrative agent, to make an approximately $110.5 million equity distribution to Mr. Wynn. At the time of this distribution, Mr. Wynn was the only member of Valvino.

        On October 3, 2000, Aruze USA made a contribution of $260 million in cash ($250 million net of finders' fee) to Valvino in exchange for 50% of the membership interests in Valvino and was admitted as a member of Valvino. Mr. Wynn was designated as, and remains, the managing member of Valvino. On October 10, 2000, the Deutsche Bank loan was repaid in full and $70 million of Mr. Wynn's loan was repaid out of the proceeds of this capital contribution. The remaining approximately $32.3 million balance of Mr. Wynn's loan, including accrued interest, was converted to equity as a member contribution.

        On April 16, 2001, Baron Asset Fund, a Massachusetts business trust, made a contribution of $20.8 million in cash ($20 million net of fees) to Valvino in exchange for approximately 3.70% of the membership interests in Valvino and was admitted as a member of Valvino. Immediately following the admission of Baron Asset Fund, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA each owned approximately 48.2% of the membership interests in Valvino.

69



        In April 2002, Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA and Baron Asset Fund each made the following further capital contributions to Valvino:

        Immediately following these additional capital contributions, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA each owned 47.5% of the membership interests, and Baron Asset Fund owned 5% of the membership interests in Valvino. The percentage of membership interests held by Baron Asset Fund are held by it on behalf of two series of Baron Asset Fund: (1) the Baron Asset Fund Series, on whose behalf approximately 3.7% of the membership interests in Valvino are held, and (2) the Baron Growth Fund Series, on whose behalf approximately 1.4% of the membership interests in Valvino are held. Neither Mr. Wynn nor Aruze USA received additional shares in connection with the April 2002 capital contributions.

        On June 24, 2002, the Kenneth R. Wynn Family Trust contributed $1.2 million in cash to Valvino in exchange for 0.146% of the outstanding membership interests in Valvino.

        The following table sets forth the total contributions (net of equity distributions) to Valvino of Wynn Resorts' principal stockholders as of June 24, 2002, the date of the most recent capital contribution to Valvino:

As described above, Mr. Wynn's interest in Wynn Macau was valued at approximately $56,000,000 (less reimbursement for certain costs) by the parties in the negotiation of Mr. Wynn's contribution of such interest to Valvino in April 2002, prior to Wynn Macau's entry into a concession agreement with the government of Macau permitting the construction and operation of one or more casinos in Macau.

        At June 30, 2002, Valvino had approximately $187.9 million ($160.9 million excluding the cash held by non-guarantor entities) of cash and cash equivalents, with all of its cash equivalents comprised of investments in overnight money market funds.

        As of June 30, 2002, approximately $399.3 million of the total Le Rêve project cost of approximately $2.35 billion (including the cost of the land, capitalized interest, pre-opening expenses and all financing fees) had been expended or incurred to fund the development of Le Rêve. The remaining approximately $2 billion of the estimated development costs for Le Rêve is expected to be funded from a combination of:

        The following table summarizes certain information regarding our expected long-term indebtedness and commercial commitments at the completion of Le Rêve. The table excludes any indebtedness or commercial commitments relating to Wynn Macau's Macau project(s), since Wynn Resorts' Macau-related subsidiaries are not guarantors on the second mortgage notes or any other Le Rêve-related indebtedness. All time periods in these tables are measured from the closing of this offering and are based upon our best estimate at this time of our expected long-term indebtedness and commercial commitments.

We anticipate that we will draw down approximately $701.4 million under the revolving credit facility to fund the design, construction, development, equipping and opening of Le Rêve, assuming that Le Rêve is completed on schedule. At such time as the total extensions of credit under the revolving credit facility equal or exceed $200 million, two of the three lead agents under that facility will have the right to convert between $100 million and $400 million of the outstanding revolving loans into term loans on the same terms and conditions as the term loans under the delay draw term loan facility or on such other terms as we and the administrative agent and syndication agent can agree. In addition, the revolving credit facility will provide for a cash flow sweep each year that will reduce the commitment under that facility by the amount of the cash flow swept.

(2)
Term loans under this facility will be repayable in quarterly installments in amounts to be determined from the opening of Le Rêve until the seventh anniversary of the closing.

Wynn Las Vegas has entered into an engagement letter with Bank of America, N.A., Banc of America Leasing & Capital LLC and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. for a $178.5 million FF&E facility, which is currently being syndicated. This facility will close concurrently with the closing of this offering. Wynn Las Vegas intends to use approximately $28.5 million of borrowings under the FF&E facility to refinance a loan made by Bank of America, N.A. to World Travel, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valvino. The Bank of America loan is secured by an aircraft mortgage on World Travel's Bombardier Global Express aircraft and calls for 47 monthly principal payments of $158,333 commencing March 1, 2003 and the payment of the approximately $21.1 million remaining principal on March 1, 2007. See "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Aircraft Arrangements." World Travel intends to give Wynn Las Vegas an intercompany note in the amount of the funds received by it to repay the Bank of America loan.

(4)
Includes the amount owing pursuant to an annuity issued by ITT Sheraton in connection with the acquisition of a parcel of land in 1994. The annuity bears interest at an annual rate of 8% and requires payment of $5,000 per month until February 2009. Valvino assumed the obligations under the annuity in connection with its acquisition of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino.

(5)
Represents obligations under our signed construction contracts with Marnell Corrao and Bomel Construction Company, Inc. We expect to sign additional contracts for the construction of Le Rêve. We expect to satisfy some of the payment obligations under these contracts using amounts borrowed under the long-term indebtedness shown above.

        Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Golf Course and Valvino have entered into a commitment letter with Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and certain of their affiliates for a revolving credit facility of $750 million and a delay draw term loan facility of $250 million as part of the financing of Le Rêve. These lenders or their affiliates are also serving as joint book-running managers of this offering. The revolving credit facility will mature on the sixth anniversary of the closing of the credit facilities. Borrowings under the delay draw term loan facility will be available until the second anniversary of the closing of the credit facilities and will be repayable in quarterly installments in amounts to be determined from the opening of Le Rêve until the seventh anniversary of the closing of the credit facilities. The credit facilities are expected to close concurrently with the closing of this offering. All amounts outstanding under the credit facilities will bear interest, at our option (subject to certain limitations), at either (1) a base rate equal to the greater of the administrative agent's prime lending rate and 0.5% in excess of the federal funds rate or (2) the Eurodollar rate, as determined by the administrative agent, in both cases plus certain margins. For each year after Le Rêve commences operations, we will be required to prepay borrowings under the credit facilities with a percentage of our excess cash flow (as it will be defined in the credit facilities), initially 75%, reducing to 50% and then to 0% as we meet certain leverage ratios. The availability of financing under the credit facilities is subject to certain conditions, including the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, the progress of the construction and other customary funding conditions for facilities of this kind.

        Subject to applicable laws, including gaming laws and certain agreed upon exceptions, we expect that the credit facilities will be secured by liens on substantially all of our assets that are necessary for the development, construction, or operation of Le Rêve, including the real property underlying Le Rêve and the golf course and the 20-acre parcel fronting Las Vegas Boulevard adjacent to the site of Le Rêve. For a description of the terms of the credit facilities, see "Description of Other Indebtedness—Credit Facilities."

        Wynn Las Vegas has entered into an engagement letter with Banc of America Leasing & Capital LLC, Bank of America, N.A. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., referred to as the FF&E agents, for a $178.5 million FF&E facility. The engagement letter provides that the FF&E agents have agreed on a best efforts basis to syndicate the FF&E facility. Wynn Las Vegas and the FF&E agents are currently in the process of syndicating the FF&E facility and negotiating the terms of the FF&E facility with proposed lenders. The FF&E facility will provide financing or refinancing for furniture, fixtures and equipment to be used at Le Rêve. Wynn Las Vegas intends to use approximately $28.5 million of the FF&E facility to refinance a loan made by Bank of America, N.A. to World Travel by means of a loan to be evidenced by an intercompany note from World Travel, secured by an aircraft mortgage on World Travel's Bombardier Global Express aircraft, legal title to which is owned by a trust in which World Travel holds 100% of the beneficial interests. Valvino acquired World Travel from Mr. Wynn and has guaranteed the Bank of America loan. Wynn Las Vegas may use additional proceeds of the FF&E facility to finance or refinance other furniture, fixtures or equipment purchased with proceeds of this offering or other funds. Obtaining the FF&E facility will be a condition to the consummation of this offering. For more information, see "Use of Proceeds," "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Aircraft Arrangements" and "Description of Certain Indebtedness."

73


        Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital, each of which is an indirect subsidiary of Valvino, are jointly offering $350 million in aggregate principal amount of second mortgage notes as part of the financing for Le Rêve. The second mortgage notes will be secured by first priority liens on the account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes, by second priority liens on the assets that secure the credit facilities and by third priority liens on the assets that secure the FF&E facility, other than the aircraft-related collateral. For additional information about the terms of the second mortgage notes, see "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes."

        Wynn Resorts and its domestic and foreign subsidiaries related to the Macau opportunity will not be guarantors and will not be subject to the covenants in the second mortgage notes or the credit facilities. However, Wynn Resorts itself will become a guarantor, but will not be bound by the covenants, under the second mortgage notes or the credit facilities, if Wynn Resorts incurs, or becomes a guarantor on, other indebtedness, subject to certain limited exceptions. If Wynn Resorts pledges assets to secure guarantees of other specified indebtedness prior to meeting prescribed leverage ratio and debt rating tests, then the second mortgage notes may be secured by second priority liens on the same Wynn Resorts' assets. The security interests in these assets may be released if certain tests are met.

        The representatives for the lenders under our credit facilities and the trustee for the second mortgage notes may release the liens on the approximately 137-acre golf course parcel and related water rights. The credit facility and indenture will provide that the liens will be released after the third anniversary of commencing operations at Le Rêve, and once we have achieved a total debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ratio of 3.0 to 1.0 or less and if the credit facilities are rated BB+ or higher by Standard & Poor's and Ba1 or higher by Moody's Investors Service immediately after giving effect to the release.

        Separately, under the credit facilities, certain portions of the golf course parcel will be released from the liens to permit residential or other non-gaming related development if we satisfy certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization targets for a period of four consecutive calendar quarters after Le Rêve opens, so long as the development or construction will not interfere with the use of the golf course and otherwise could not reasonably be expected to materially impair the overall value of Le Rêve. In addition, the credit facilities will provide that two acres of the golf course parcel will be released from the liens to permit the construction of a home for Mr. Wynn, so long as the construction will not interfere with the use of the golf course and otherwise could not reasonably be expected to materially impair the overall value of Le Rêve and Mr. Wynn pays us fair market value for the property. Upon release by the representative for the lenders under the credit facilities of these portions of the golf course, the trustee for the second mortgage note holders will automatically release their second priority liens on that property as well.

        Finally, the credit facilities will provide that the liens on the 20-acre parcel fronting Las Vegas Boulevard adjacent to the site of Le Rêve will be released by representatives for the lenders under the credit facilities if we meet certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization targets for four consecutive calendar quarters after the commencement of operations at Le Rêve. In addition, the representatives of the lenders, by action of specified percentage of the lenders, may release the liens on the 20-acre parcel if we meet certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization targets for two consecutive calendar quarters after the commencement of operations at Le Rêve. Upon such

74



release by the representatives for the lenders, the trustee for the second mortgage note holders will automatically release their second priority liens on the 20-acre parcel. Upon release by the trustee and bank representative, the golf course parcel, or portions of such parcel, and the 20-acre parcel will not be available as security for the second mortgage notes or the indebtedness under the credit facilities. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness—Our indebtedness will be secured by a substantial portion, but not all, of our assets."

        We intend to deposit all of the net proceeds from the offering of the second mortgage notes in a secured account pledged to the second mortgage note holders pursuant to an agreement with the trustee for the second mortgage note holders. Pursuant to the terms of the disbursement agreement, we are required to use a substantial portion of the cash equity contribution made by Wynn Resorts before accessing the proceeds from the offering of the second mortgage notes. The disbursement agreement also requires us to use all of the proceeds from this offering of second mortgage notes before borrowing under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility. We do not expect to request disbursements of the second mortgage note proceeds until approximately ten to twelve months after the closing of this offering, and we do not expect to borrow under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility until approximately 16-19 months after the closing of this offering and after applying all of the proceeds of this offering towards the development and construction of Le Rêve.

        Our ability to receive disbursements from time to time of the second mortgage note proceeds from the secured account and to borrow under the credit facilities and FF&E facility will be, in addition to other customary conditions to funding for these types of facilities, subject to various conditions, including the following:

75


        See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction of Le Rêve—There are significant conditions to the funding of the financing for the Le Rêve project." We expect that the funds provided by the sources described above and available cash will be sufficient to develop, construct and commence operations of Le Rêve and to pay interest on borrowings under the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage notes until the scheduled opening of Le Rêve, assuming there are no significant delay costs or construction cost overruns for which we are responsible. See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction of Le Rêve—Development costs of Le Rêve are estimates only and actual costs may be higher than expected." The disbursement agreement will contain conditions precedent to our entering into scope change orders that will increase the anticipated costs of the project. These conditions will require us to fund equity into an account subject to a security interest in favor of the lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of the second mortgage notes in an amount equal to the anticipated incremental cost of the change orders. In addition, if we do not complete construction of Le Rêve by August 31, 2005, subject to limited permitted extensions due to force majeure events, we will be in default under the credit facilities, the indenture governing the second mortgage notes and the FF&E facility, and the holders of our indebtedness will have the right to accelerate our indebtedness and exercise other rights and remedies against us, and against Wynn Resorts if Wynn Resorts becomes a guarantor of the indebtedness under the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes, or if liens on assets of Wynn Resorts secure the credit facilities or the second mortgage notes. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness—We are highly leveraged and future cash flow may not be sufficient to meet our obligations, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes, and we might have difficulty obtaining more financing."

        Concurrent with this offering, we expect that Wynn Resorts will offer shares of its common stock in an initial public offering with expected gross proceeds of approximately $395 million.

        Following the completion of Le Rêve, we expect to fund our operations and capital requirements from operating cash flow and borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Assuming that Le Rêve opens in March 2005, we expect that the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage notes will be approximately $1.5 billion. If completion of the project is delayed, then our debt service obligations accruing prior to the actual opening of Le Rêve will increase correspondingly. We cannot assure you, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings available to us under the credit facilities will be sufficient to enable us to service and repay our indebtedness and to fund our other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity and, if Wynn Resorts incurs debt to do this, it may become a guarantor under the second mortgage notes and the credit facilities, subject to certain limited exceptions. Similarly, if Wynn Resorts pledges assets to secure guarantees of other specified indebtedness prior to meeting

76


prescribed leverage ratio and debt rating tests, then the credit facilities and second mortgage notes may be secured by liens on Wynn Resorts' assets. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including the credit facilities, the FF&E facility or the second mortgage notes on acceptable terms or at all. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness—After Le Rêve opens, we may not generate sufficient cash flow to meet our substantial debt service obligations."

        A special purpose subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, formed with the intention of being bankruptcy-remote, will be providing a $50 million completion guarantee in favor of the lenders under the credit facilities and the second mortgage note holders to secure completion in full of the construction and opening of Le Rêve, including all furniture, fixtures and equipment, the parking structure, the golf course and the availability of initial working capital. Wynn Resorts will contribute $50 million of the net proceeds of its equity offering to that subsidiary to support its obligations under the completion guarantee. These funds will be deposited into a collateral account to be held in cash or short-term highly-rated securities, and pledged to the lenders under the credit facilities and second mortgage note holders to secure the completion capital commitment. These funds will be applied to the costs of the project in accordance with the disbursement agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under our credit facilities or the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the lenders under our credit facilities or, if no amounts are outstanding under our credit facilities, the second mortgage note holders, will be permitted to exercise remedies against such sums and apply such sums against the obligations under their respective documents. Except for any application of these funds to the costs of the project in accordance with the disbursement agreement, these funds will not be available for any other purpose until Le Rêve is completed and opens, at which time any amounts remaining in this account will be released to Wynn Resorts.

        In addition, Wynn Resorts will contribute $30 million of the net proceeds of its common stock offering to Wynn Las Vegas to be held in a separate liquidity reserve account and pledged to the lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of the second mortgage notes to secure Wynn Las Vegas' obligation to complete Le Rêve. Until the opening of Le Rêve, these funds may be applied to the costs of the project in accordance with the disbursement agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under our credit facilities or the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the lenders under our credit facilities or, if no amounts are outstanding under our credit facilities, the second mortgage note holders, will be permitted to exercise remedies against such sums and apply such sums against the obligations under their respective documents. Following the completion and opening of Le Rêve, these funds will be available to meet our debt service needs in connection with the operation of Le Rêve. Once we have met prescribed earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization targets for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters after the opening of Le Rêve, we will use any remaining funds to reduce the outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility but wihtout reducing the revolving credit facility commitment.

        As noted above, we operate an art gallery displaying works from The Wynn Collection on the former premises of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino. We expect the art gallery to remain open during the construction of Le Rêve. We currently lease The Wynn Collection from Mr. and Mrs. Wynn at a monthly rate equal to the gross revenue received by the gallery each month, less direct expenses, subject to a monthly cap. Our lease agreement with Mr. and Mrs. Wynn did not require any such lease payments through June 30, 2002. However, had we been required to make such payments, no amounts would have been due under the lease payment formula because, to date, our expenses in operating the art gallery have exceeded

77



the revenue generated from such operations. Prior to opening Le Rêve, we do not expect to make any material payments under this lease. The only financial exposure that we have under this lease is the cost of operating the art gallery, including insurance, which is not material. After specified notice periods, we or Mr. and Mrs. Wynn may terminate this lease.

        New business developments or other unforeseen events may occur, resulting in the need to raise additional funds. For example, we explore opportunities to develop additional gaming or related businesses in Las Vegas or other markets, whether through acquisition, investment or development. Any such development would require us to obtain additional financing. We may also decide to conduct any such development through Wynn Resorts or through a line of subsidiaries separate from the Le Rêve entities. In addition, Wynn Resorts' articles of incorporation will provide that Wynn Resorts may redeem shares of its capital stock, including its common stock, that are owned or controlled by an unsuitable person or its affiliates to the extent a gaming authority makes a determination of unsuitability and orders the redemption, or to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by the board of directors. The redemption price may be paid in cash, by promissory note or both, as required by the applicable gaming authority and, if not, as Wynn Resorts elects. Any promissory note that Wynn Resorts issues to an unsuitable person or its affiliate in exchange for its shares may increase our debt to equity ratio and will increase our leverage ratio.

        Wynn Macau has entered into a 20-year concession agreement with the government of Macau permitting it to construct and operate one or more casinos in Macau. The concession agreement obligates Wynn Macau to invest no less than a total of 4 billion Macau patacas (currently approximately $500 million, using the exchange rate as of August 11, 2002) on one or more casino projects by June 26, 2009 and to commence operations of its first permanent casino resort no later than December 2006. If Wynn Macau does not invest 4 billion patacas by June 26, 2009, it is obligated to invest the remaining amount on projects related to its gaming operations in Macau that the Macau government approves, or on projects of public interest designated by the Macau government. While Wynn Macau is still formulating its plans for the development of its operations in Macau, it is expected that significant additional financing will be needed to fund the development and construction of any Wynn Macau project in Macau. Wynn Macau is not part of the restricted group. We do not expect financing for any such project to be provided by or through any of the issuers or guarantors (except for possibly Wynn Resorts, if it becomes a guarantor) of the second mortgage notes or any other financing relating to the Le Rêve project. Wynn Resorts' indirect economic ownership interest in Wynn Macau is expected to be approximately 82.5% prior to any such financing.

        Wynn Macau's plans relating to the financing of the Macau opportunity are at the preliminary stages. Wynn Macau is considering different financing alternatives, including equity financing at the Wynn Macau level or at the level of one of Wynn Macau's intermediary holding companies, such as Wynn Resorts (Macau), Limited, and debt financing at the Wynn Macau level. Wynn Macau has no commitments relating to such financing and we cannot assure you that Wynn Macau will be able to obtain such financing on acceptable terms or at all.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

        Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk will be interest rate risk associated with our revolving credit facility, delay draw term loan facility and FF&E facility, each of which will bear interest based on

78



floating rates. We will attempt to manage our interest rate risk by managing the mix of our long-term fixed rate borrowings and variable rate borrowings. We are required to obtain interest rate protection through interest rate swap arrangements with respect to 50% of our term loans (including any revolving loans that may be converted into term loans). However, we cannot assure you that these risk management strategies will have the desired effect and interest rate fluctuations could have a negative impact on our results of operations.

        We do not use derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Inflation

        We believe that our results of operations do not depend upon moderate changes in the inflation rate.

Transactions with Related Parties

        The financial statements of Valvino and its subsidiaries reflect certain transactions with related parties. Transactions with related parties, by their nature, may involve terms or aspects that differ from those that would have resulted from negotiations with independent third parties.

BUSINESS

Overview

        We are constructing and will own and operate Le Rêve, which we have designed to be the preeminent luxury hotel and destination casino resort in Las Vegas. Le Rêve will be located on the Las Vegas Strip on the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino, at the northeast corner of the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Sands Avenue, one-half block north of The Venetian and Treasure Island at The Mirage and across Las Vegas Boulevard from the Fashion Show Mall. We expect Le Rêve to feature approximately 2,700 luxurious guest rooms, a casually elegant 111,500 square foot casino, 18 distinctive dining outlets, an exclusive 18-hole championship golf course and a new water-based entertainment production.

        Le Rêve is the concept of Stephen A. Wynn, one of Wynn Resorts' principal stockholders and its Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Wynn previously was Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mirage Resorts and its predecessor from 1973 to 2000. In that role he was responsible for the development of some of the most successful, well-known casino-based entertainment resorts in the world, including Bellagio, The Mirage, Treasure Island at The Mirage and the Golden Nugget—Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada, as well as the Atlantic City Golden Nugget in New Jersey and the Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi. At the time each of these resorts was completed, we believe that it was widely regarded as a significant major new attraction in its jurisdiction.

        We expect Le Rêve, including the new golf course construction, to cost approximately $2.4 billion to design, construct develop, equip and open, including the cost of the land, capitalized interest, pre-opening expenses and all financing fees. We have scheduled ground-breaking to occur in September 2002, with an opening to the general public scheduled for March 2005.

Our Strategy

        Showcase the "Wynn Brand."    We believe that Mr. Wynn's involvement with Le Rêve provides a distinct advantage over other gaming enterprises in Las Vegas. We believe that Mr. Wynn is widely viewed as the premier designer, developer and operator of destination casino resorts in Las Vegas and, as such, has in effect developed a "brand name" status in the gaming industry.

        While Mr. Wynn was Chairman of the Board of Mirage Resorts, he conceived of and oversaw the development and operation of some of the most successful, well-known casino-based entertainment resorts in the world, including Bellagio, The Mirage, Treasure Island at The Mirage, the Golden Nugget—Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada, as well as the Atlantic City Golden Nugget in New Jersey and the Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi. Mr. Wynn served as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mirage Resorts and its predecessor for 27 years, until 2000, when MGM Grand acquired Mirage Resorts for approximately $6.4 billion. The public filings and press releases of Mirage Resorts and MGM Mirage report that in fiscal year 1999, the last full year of Mr. Wynn's tenure with Mirage Resorts, the company had grown to own and operate eight hotel casino resort properties totaling 630,000 square feet of casino gaming space and 16,577 hotel rooms that generated approximately $2.4 billion in revenue, $573 million in earnings before depreciation, interest, taxes and pre-opening costs and $110.4 million in net income.

        In the major hotel destination casino resorts he has previously developed, Mr. Wynn has successfully employed a formula which integrates luxurious surroundings, upscale design, distinctive entertainment and superior amenities, including fine dining and high-end retail

80



offerings, to create resorts that appeal to a variety of customers, especially high-end customers. We believe that Le Rêve will be Mr. Wynn's most innovative work to date.

        We believe that Le Rêve will set a new standard of luxury and elegance for destination casino resorts in Las Vegas, much as Bellagio and, before it, The Mirage, did when they were built by Mirage Resorts under the guidance of Mr. Wynn. The following chart compares certain features of The Mirage and Bellagio with the features and amenities that we anticipate Le Rêve will offer.

        Create a "Must-Visit" Destination Casino Resort on the Las Vegas Strip.    We believe that Le Rêve will represent a natural extension of the concepts Mr. Wynn has utilized in developing other major destination casino resorts. Following Mr. Wynn's formula, we plan to draw customers to Le Rêve by offering high-quality, non-gaming amenities such as fine dining, premier retail shopping and distinctive entertainment in intimate, luxurious surroundings. Le Rêve will have a sophisticated, casually elegant ambience rather than being focused on a highly themed experience like many other hotel casino resorts on the Las Vegas Strip. We believe that, over time, Le Rêve's more generally themed casually elegant environment, together with its high-quality amenities, superior level of service and distinctive attractions, will have greater lasting appeal to customers than a resort with a particular theme and numerous attractions based on that theme.

        We will seek to differentiate Le Rêve from other major Las Vegas resorts by concentrating on our fundamental elements of design, atmosphere, personal service and level of luxury. Le Rêve will offer our guests lush landscaping and tiered waterfalls, an approximately three-acre lake in front of the hotel that guests can view only after entering the property and an arc-shaped hotel tower instead of the three-pointed "Y" and four-pointed "X" configurations that have become commonplace among Las Vegas hotel casino resorts. We believe that the elegance of Le Rêve, and its convenient location on the Las Vegas Strip, will appeal to a variety of market segments, including high-end, casino, convention, leisure and tour and travel customers.

        Open the First New Major Hotel Casino Resort on the Las Vegas Strip in Almost Five Years.    Although a number of hotel casino resorts have announced or begun construction of expansion projects that will add to the number of hotel rooms on the Las Vegas Strip, we are not aware of any other major new hotel casino resort that plans to open on the Las Vegas Strip before Le Rêve. Therefore, at the time of Le Rêve's planned opening in March 2005, we believe that it will have been almost five years since a major new hotel casino resort opened on the Las Vegas Strip. As a result, we expect that there will be a high level of anticipation for Le Rêve. We intend to capitalize on this high level of anticipation, as well as the tendency of customers in the Las Vegas market to gravitate toward new attractions and locations. When Bellagio opened in 1998 there was widespread publicity in newspapers, radio and other media outlets. We anticipate that publicity regarding Le Rêve's opening will be comparable.

        Provide an Experience of the Highest Standard of Luxury in an Atmosphere of Casual Elegance.    We are designing Le Rêve to appeal to upscale clientele looking for a first-class environment of elegance, sophistication and luxury. We will seek to attract a range of customers, including middle market customers and high-roller and premium gaming patrons, by providing guests with a premium level of luxury, amenities and service.

        We believe that the key elements of our approach include:

82


        Appeal to "High-Roller" and Premium Gaming Patrons.    We believe that the premium level of luxury, sophistication and service we intend to offer at Le Rêve, together with Mr. Wynn's experience and reputation in building and operating premier Las Vegas destination casino resorts, will appeal to high-roller international and domestic gaming patrons. In addition to the main casino, Le Rêve will offer a baccarat salon and private high-limit gaming rooms designed to create a sense of comfort and exclusivity for high-end gaming customers. In addition to standard hotel guest rooms, Le Rêve will offer approximately 290 suites and six villas, all elegantly decorated and furnished.

        We also expect to capitalize on the substantial network of international and domestic high-roller and premium customers who are familiar with Mr. Wynn from his tenure at Mirage Resorts. We believe that in operating some of the signature properties in Las Vegas, Mr. Wynn has developed a high degree of customer recognition and guest loyalty and therefore believe that Le Rêve will attract wealthy international and domestic gaming customers. We believe that Mr. Wynn's reputation will attract experienced, high-level international and domestic casino marketing executives. We plan to have marketing executives located in local offices in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Europe, New York and southern California, as well as independent marketing representatives in major U.S. and foreign cities. Mr. Wynn is not bound by any non-competition or non-solicitation agreements with MGM Mirage arising out of the acquisition of MGM Grand's acquisition of Mirage Resorts.

83



        Generate Substantial Revenue from Le Rêve's Non-Gaming Facilities.    We have planned Le Rêve as a luxury destination resort with amenities designed to generate substantial non-gaming revenue. We expect Le Rêve's superior non-gaming amenities outlined above to provide for a substantial portion of our overall revenue.

        Extensive Frontage on the Las Vegas Strip.    Le Rêve will be located on the Las Vegas Strip at the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino on the northeast corner of the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Sands Avenue. Le Rêve will have approximately 1,350 feet of frontage on the Las Vegas Strip and will be located near some of the most visited hotel casino resorts and attractions on the Las Vegas Strip, including Bellagio, Caesars Palace, The Mirage, Treasure Island at The Mirage and The Venetian.

        The Le Rêve site consists of approximately 55 acres of land, where the hotel complex will be built, and approximately 137 acres of land behind the hotel site on which the new golf course will sit. In addition, the site includes a 20-acre parcel fronting Las Vegas Boulevard adjacent to Le Rêve. In total, the Le Rêve site consists of 212 acres. The back of the Le Rêve property runs along Paradise Road, a major artery in the resort corridor that leads directly to and from McCarran International Airport. Le Rêve will be conveniently accessible in an average of approximately four minutes from the Spring Mountain Road exit off of Interstate 15, and in an average of approximately ten minutes from McCarran International Airport.

        Proximity to the Las Vegas Convention Center and the Sands Expo and Convention Center.    According to Tradeshow Week 200, Las Vegas was the most popular trade show destination in the United States in terms of net square footage and number of Tradeshow Week 200 shows in 2001, and one of the most popular convention destinations in the United States. Le Rêve will be across the street from two of the nation's largest convention centers, the Las Vegas Convention Center and the Sands Expo and Convention Center.

        The Las Vegas Convention Center contains approximately 3.2 million square feet of space. According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, approximately 1.3 million visitors attended trade shows and conventions at the Las Vegas Convention Center during 2001. We anticipate that Le Rêve will be connected to the Las Vegas Convention Center by a pedestrian bridge over Paradise Road, and that the Las Vegas monorail at the intersection of Desert Inn Road and Paradise Road will meet the anticipated pedestrian bridge. In addition, we anticipate that our free shuttle service will transport convention and trade show attendees and other Le Rêve visitors to and from the Las Vegas Convention Center in approximately four minutes. The shuttle service will run along the north perimeter of the golf course and will be able to move several thousand people per hour. We believe that this will be attractive to convention and trade show visitors who will not need to wait in long lines for taxicabs and can avoid traffic congestion around the Las Vegas Convention Center in travelling to or from Le Rêve.

        To the south, Le Rêve will be directly across Sands Avenue from the approximately 1.2 million square foot Sands Expo and Convention Center. This complex will be within a short walking distance from Le Rêve's Sands Avenue entrance and we anticipate that Le Rêve will be connected to the Sands Expo and Convention Center by a pedestrian bridge which we understand Clark County plans to build. According to the public filings of Las Vegas Sands, Inc., an affiliate of the owner of the Sands Expo and Convention Center, approximately 1 million visitors attended trade shows and conventions at the Sands Expo and Convention Center during 2001.

84



        We believe that our proximity to these trade show and convention facilities will make Le Rêve particularly attractive to business customers who attend trade shows and conventions. We expect these customers to be a source of room demand for Le Rêve during mid-week periods when room demand by leisure travelers is typically lower. Because of this source of room demand, we believe that we will be able to charge higher mid-week room rates than those of other Las Vegas Strip hotels.

        Proximity to the Fashion Show Mall.    Le Rêve will be directly across Las Vegas Boulevard from The Rouse Company's Fashion Show Mall. We anticipate that Le Rêve will be connected to the mall by a pedestrian bridge which we understand Clark County plans to build. The Fashion Show Mall contains premium retail stores and anchor tenants such as Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Macy's and is currently undergoing a substantial remodeling and expansion program, which is expected to be completed by October 2003. When the remodeling and expansion are completed, the Fashion Show Mall is expected to house a number of new stores, including Nordstrom, Lord & Taylor and Bloomingdale's Home & Furniture. We anticipate that the proximity of the Fashion Show Mall to our retail shops will draw significantly more shoppers to the area.

        Capitalize on Our Experienced Management Team.    The members of our management team have extensive experience in developing and operating large-scale hotels and casinos and many of them worked with Mr. Wynn at Mirage Resorts to develop Bellagio. In addition to our executive officers, each of whose background is described in "Management," Wynn Resorts' management team includes:

        We believe that the experience, talent and commitment of the members of our management team provide a substantial competitive advantage.

        Carefully Manage Construction Costs and Risks.    Wynn Design & Development, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valvino, is responsible for managing construction costs and risks associated with the project. Marnell Corrao will be the builder and general contractor for Le Rêve. Marnell Corrao has extensive experience in building large Las Vegas destination resorts, including Bellagio, The Mirage, Treasure Island at The Mirage and New York-New York Hotel and Casino. We expect the total development cost of Le Rêve to be approximately $2.4 billion,

85



including the cost of the land, capitalized interest, pre-opening expenses and all financing fees. Of that amount, the design and construction costs are estimated to be approximately $1.4 billion. We have entered into a guaranteed maximum price construction contract covering approximately $919 million of the budgeted construction cost. The guaranteed maximum price is subject to increases based on scope changes and other exceptions, to construct the Le Rêve hotel and casino. Plans for a substantial portion of the budget for this contract have not been finalized. We plan to implement specific mechanisms that are intended to reduce the risk of construction cost overruns and delays, including:

        We have entered into a separate design/build contract with Bomel Construction Company, Inc. for the design and construction of the parking structure. Bomel has extensive experience constructing parking structures, including garages at Paris Las Vegas, Green Valley Ranch Station and The Palms Casino Resort. We expect to solicit competitive bids in late summer 2002 for construction of the new golf course and to award the contract in the fourth quarter of 2002. We expect that the newly constructed golf course will be available for play when Le Rêve opens.

        Benefit from the Significant Equity Investment.    We will have a significant cash equity capitalization for the development of Le Rêve. From inception through the completion of Le Rêve, we expect to have received a total of approximately $926 million in cash equity, which represents approximately 38% of the total project costs. To date, Mr. Wynn has invested $175 million in cash equity which demonstrates his commitment to the Le Rêve project.

86


The Le Rêve Resort

        Features of the Le Rêve Project

        The Hotel.    We have designed Le Rêve's hotel tower to contain 45 floors of hotel rooms and suites on top of a three-story low-rise building housing restaurants, retail outlets and the casino. The building will have a total area of approximately 5.2 million square feet. The high-rise building is configured in the shape of a gentle arc with the focal point of the tower being the Le Rêve lake, an approximately three-acre manmade lake situated in front of the hotel, and the manmade "mountain" in front of the lake along the Las Vegas Strip. We are designing the Le Rêve lake and "mountain" to provide special effects intended to entertain our guests and the pedestrians who come to our hotel and casino.

        The Le Rêve hotel guest main arrival area will feature an atrium garden adjacent to the registration desk with a view of Le Rêve lake below. We are designing Le Rêve to provide an intimate setting by minimizing walking distances throughout the hotel with a well-designed, organized floor plan to facilitate guest orientation and familiarity with the property. On average, walking distances from the registration hosts to the guest elevators will be only 460 feet. Comparative distances at The Venetian, Bellagio and The Mirage are approximately 530 feet, approximately 545 feet and approximately 570 feet, respectively. Once the guests arrive on their floor, the maximum walking distance to the most remote guest room will be approximately 240 feet, as compared to similar hotels such as Bellagio, The Mirage, Treasure Island at The Mirage and The Venetian at approximately 360 feet.

        The Guest Rooms.    We intend to decorate our approximately 2,400 standard guest rooms with sophisticated interior design elements and materials. The standard guest rooms have been designed to have a floor layout of approximately 620 square feet, which is approximately 100 to 125 square feet more than the industry standard for a standard guest room. The arc-shaped design of our high-rise building will provide rooms with a view of the golf course, lake and "mountain" setting, or the surrounding mountains and has enabled us to design these rooms with widened entryways consisting of six-foot wide marble foyers. All standard rooms will have views of either the golf course or Las Vegas Boulevard and also will have large working desks equipped with convenient and accessible electrical outlets. Additionally, we expect that each guest room will have a dedicated high-speed Internet connection utilizing state-of-the-art broadband connections that, for a fee, can be upgraded for in-room wireless Internet access with an adapter. Generally, this type of broadband connection is not currently available in the guest rooms of other hotels in Las Vegas. Standard room bathrooms will have an oversized countertop, double sinks, a makeup area and television, a glass shower enclosure, a separate toilet compartment and a bathtub for two.

        We also plan for Le Rêve to provide single and multiple bedroom luxury suites with superior amenities and furnishings designed to accommodate high-end hotel guests. Le Rêve will offer 270 parlor and salon suites (beginning at approximately 1,250 square feet) located in the tower of the hotel high-rise building and 21 one- and two-bedroom fairway lanai suites (beginning at approximately 2,200 square feet) located on the east side of the low-rise complex overlooking the golf course. The high-rise suite area will be separated from the standard guest rooms on each floor by a glass door, effectively creating a separate but adjoining "suite tower" accessible only to suite occupants. Occupants of the suites can also make use of a special hotel garden entrance to the hotel, located off of the south porte cochere VIP arrival area, as well as an exclusive elevator for the suites. The suites will be conveniently located near the casino and some of the fine-dining restaurants.

        We believe that we have designed these elegant and spacious suites to satisfy the expectations of the highly sought-after international gaming customer. The salon suites' living

87



rooms and bedrooms are designed to have views overlooking the Las Vegas Strip or Las Vegas' surrounding geography. We plan for each salon suite to feature a luxurious lounge area with a media center, adjacent dining or conference area, wet bar and oversized bathroom.

        We believe that the location of our lanai suites on the golf course fairway will be especially attractive to our VIP gaming customers and hotel guests who desire the peace and privacy of staying in more secluded living quarters detached from the main hotel complex. The 21 fairway lanai suites will be situated in a three-story structure with seven suites on each floor and will be conveniently located near our four swimming pools. Each of our fairway lanai suites will have its own private patio overlooking the golf course and will include programmable guestroom controls to accommodate many of the native languages of our hotel guests. We believe that each of our suites will be decorated and furnished to satisfy the most discriminating tastes and clientele.

        We also will offer four two-bedroom and two four-bedroom villas located in the low-rise structure of our hotel. Our villas will average approximately 7,000 square feet. Our villas will be accessible via a private entry located off of the south porte cochere VIP arrival area and will be conveniently located close to our retail stores and fine-dining restaurants.

        The Casino.    We expect Le Rêve to have an approximately 111,500 square foot casino located in the center of the first level of the low-rise building. Le Rêve's casino will be designed with a feeling of casual elegance and color palettes that complement Le Rêve's resort setting. We have planned the casino to have a well-organized floor plan and well-defined pathways that will allow our patrons easy access to the casino. The casino's main gaming area will contain an estimated 136 table games and 2,000 slot machines, a race and sports book, poker room and keno lounge. Our gaming limits will accommodate a full range of casino customers. In addition, Le Rêve will have a baccarat salon and private gaming rooms with direct access from the "suite tower." Each private gaming room will be elegantly appointed with its own private dining room and patio terrace overlooking Le Rêve's pools. We will market the casino directly to gaming customers using database marketing techniques, slot clubs and traditional incentives, such as reduced room rates and complimentary meals and suites. We will offer high-roller gaming customers premium suites and special hotel services.

        The Golf Course.    We plan to construct a world-class, 18-hole championship golf course at the site of the former Desert Inn golf course. Based on current publicly available plans, when Le Rêve opens, we believe this golf course will be the only golf course on the site of a hotel casino resort on the Las Vegas Strip. Tom Fazio and Mr. Wynn, the designers of the Shadow Creek golf course owned by MGM Mirage, have designed our course. The Le Rêve golf course will be accessible only to hotel guests of Le Rêve. We expect that the course will feature three lakes and a series of meandering streams that will carve their way from the west to east end of the property. We have designed the golf course with dramatic elevation changes and plan to include water on almost every hole. Unlike other courses available to Las Vegas visitors, our golf course will be adjacent to the hotel, and will be visible from the windows of many of Le Rêve's meeting and convention rooms. We expect that Le Rêve's golf course will be available for play when Le Rêve opens.

        Restaurants, Lounges, Bars and Nightclub.    We plan to offer 18 food and beverage outlets, including six fine-dining restaurants and an approximately 600-seat buffet. We plan to follow the approach Mr. Wynn utilized at Mirage Resorts in seeking to persuade signature chefs to either move to Las Vegas or open second versions of restaurants that are well-known in other cities. In July 2002, Wynn Las Vegas entered into a restaurant management agreement with Dinex Management, LLC to provide the cuisine and services of Daniel Boulud,

88



who was named "Chef of the Year" by Bon Appetit Magazine, and is known for his New York restaurants, DANIEL and Café Boulud. DANIEL has been awarded four stars by the New York Times, rated one of the ten best restaurants in the world by The International Herald Tribune and received Gourmet Magazine's "Top Table" award.

        We plan to engage a number of well-known interior designers to decorate and stylize Le Rêve's numerous restaurants. We expect Le Rêve to offer a full complement of lounges and bars and a nightclub. We have planned for several of our restaurants to overlook the Le Rêve lake and will offer outdoor lounges and/or dining areas.

        The Showroom.    Le Rêve's showroom will be customized to accommodate the unveiling of Franco Dragone's new water-based entertainment production. Mr. Dragone is the creative force behind Bellagio's production of "O" and Treasure Island at The Mirage's production of "Mystère," as well as Celine Dion's new production at the approximately 4,000-seat performing arts "Colosseum" currently being constructed by Caesars Palace and scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2003. "O" and "Mystère" have been consistently sold out since opening.

        The showroom will seat approximately 2,080 guests and will feature an approximately 1,000,000 gallon performance pool. The seating for the showroom is designed to extend around the performance area a full 360 degrees and to be suspended over the performance pool with no seat farther than approximately 42 feet from the performance area.

        The Art Gallery.    Le Rêve will also offer an art gallery displaying rare paintings from The Wynn Collection. The Wynn Collection consists of works from 19th and 20th century European and American masters, and at various times has included works by Paul Cézanne, Paul Gaugin, Édouard Manet, Henri Matisse, Amedeo Modigliani, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso and Vincent Van Gogh. Several of these paintings were on display at Bellagio before MGM Grand's acquisition of Mirage Resorts. Subject to certain notice restrictions, Mr. and Mrs. Wynn will retain the right to remove or replace any or all of the works of art that will be displayed in the art gallery. We currently operate an art gallery in our office building on the 20-acre parcel and pay for the insurance on the works of art and will continue to do so after Le Rêve opens. We lease The Wynn Collection from Mr. and Mrs. Wynn at a monthly rate equal to the gross revenue received by the gallery each month, less direct expenses, subject to a monthly cap. Prior to opening Le Rêve, we do not expect to make any material payments under this lease. The only financial exposure that we have under this lease is the cost of operating the art gallery, including insurance, which is not material. After specified notice periods, we or Mr. and Mrs. Wynn may terminate this lease.

        The Ferrari and Maserati Dealership.    We have entered into letters of intent with Ferrari North America, Inc. and Maserati North America, Inc. to open an authorized on-site, full-service Ferrari and Maserati dealership. We expect that our franchises will include a service and maintenance facility, as well as a café and retail store. Currently, there are only 29 Ferrari dealerships in the United States and we expect ours to be the first in Nevada. The dealership will be located near the main entrance to the hotel.

        The letters of intent require us to submit designs and plans for the dealership to Ferrari North America and Maserati North America for approval and to satisfy certain financing and other conditions, including minimum working capital and net worth requirements. The letters of intent also require us to provide quarterly updates as to the status of construction of Le Rêve and to continuously meet all capital, facility, personnel, customer satisfaction and operational standards of Ferrari North America and Maserati North America. If we are approved to operate the franchises, Ferrari North America and Maserati North America will

89



have first and senior priority security interests in their respective franchises. Under the letters of intent, no changes in the proportional equity interests in Wynn Resorts held by Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA, Baron Asset Fund and our public stockholders as a group upon consummation of this offering can be made without the approval of Ferrari North America and Maserati North America.

        Retail Space.    Le Rêve will contain approximately 77,500 square feet dedicated to retail shops. We expect to lease approximately eight of the shops to tenants operating boutiques, including brand name and high-end boutiques. We plan to operate the remaining approximately 18 stores, including a golf shop and other shops selling, among other things, men's clothing, women's apparel and accessories, art, watches, sundries and proprietary Le Rêve products.

        The Spa, Salon and Fitness Complex.    We will own and operate a world-class spa, salon and fitness complex offering high-end spa treatments and fitness equipment and custom label and branded skin and body treatment products, as well as clothing, accessories, and athletic wear. The 38,000 square foot spa and salon complex will be directly accessible from the main guestrooms, the suites and villas, and pool deck elevators.

        Swimming Pools.    Le Rêve will offer its guests four outdoor swimming pools and two whirlpool spas. One swimming pool and one whirlpool spa will be dedicated for the exclusive use of our suite guests. The pool areas will feature private cabanas and lush landscaping.

        Convention, Meeting and Reception Facilities.    Le Rêve will feature approximately 223,000 square feet of convention, meeting and reception space (including corridors and patio space), including a grand ballroom, a junior ballroom and meeting rooms with outdoor patios overlooking either the pool area or the golf course, as well as boardrooms and a business center. Covered patios off of the meeting rooms are available as pre-function or break-out areas.

        The Wedding Chapels.    Le Rêve will include two intimate wedding chapels that we expect will accommodate 60 guests each.

        Parking.    Our north parking garage, which will have easy access to our hotel, will provide approximately 1,840 parking spaces for our guests and other visitors. The second level of the north parking garage will connect to a retail promenade that will lead to our casino. We will have two levels of valet parking under the hotel and a separate parking area for employees located on the 20-acre parcel next to the Le Rêve. In total, there will be approximately 4,050 parking spaces available to guests and employees of Le Rêve.

        Valvino's subsidiary, Wynn Design & Development, together with Stephen A. Wynn, is designing Le Rêve. Wynn Design & Development, which will supervise construction of Le Rêve, is comprised of a highly qualified team of specialists with an impressive track record in designing, constructing and completing major hotel casino resorts. The Wynn Design & Development team includes:

90


        We have scheduled groundbreaking for Le Rêve to occur in September 2002, with an opening to the general public scheduled for March 2005.

        Wynn Design & Development, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valvino, is responsible for the design and architecture of Le Rêve (except for the showroom, the golf course and the parking garage) and for managing construction costs and risks associated with the Le Rêve project. Nevada law requires that a firm licensed as a professional architectural organization certify architectural plans. These architectural services for the Le Rêve project will be provided by the firm of Butler/Ashworth Architects, Ltd., LLC. The principals of the Butler/Ashworth firm are DeRuyter O. Butler and Glen Ashworth, both of whom are employees of Wynn Design & Development. Mr. Butler is Executive Vice President of Wynn Design & Development. Wynn Design & Development is the only client of the Butler/Ashworth firm and pays the salaries and benefits of Messrs. Butler and Ashworth. Neither we nor Mr. Wynn has an ownership interest in Butler/Ashworth.

        We expect the total development cost of Le Rêve to be approximately $2.4 billion, including the budgeted design and construction costs, cost of the land, capitalized interest, pre-opening expenses and all financing fees. The required cash interest payments and commitment fees on the credit facilities, the FF&E facility, the second mortgage notes and any other indebtedness and obligations of ours which will be due before the estimated commencement date of operations of Le Rêve have been included in our estimate of the total development cost.

91



        Of the estimated $2.4 billion total development cost for Le Rêve, the design and construction costs are budgeted to be approximately $1.4 billion, including the cost of constructing the golf course and principal parking garage, but excluding costs such as pre-opening costs, entertainment production costs, site acquisition costs, construction period interest, financing fees and certain furniture, fixtures and equipment, such as slot machines, computer equipment and kitchen and dining supplies.

        In an effort to manage our construction risk, we have entered into a guaranteed maximum price construction contract with Marnell Corrao covering approximately $919 million of the budgeted $1.4 billion design and construction cost. The $919 million guaranteed maximum price contract is subject to increases based on scope changes and other exceptions. Although we have determined the overall scope and design of Le Rêve, not all of the plans and specifications for the construction components that are the subject of the guaranteed maximum price contract have been finalized and, under certain circumstances, we will be responsible for excess costs with respect to these components. See "Construction Contracts for Le Rêve" and "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction of Le Rêve."

        Approximately $485 million of the $1.4 billion budgeted design and construction cost expenditures are not part of the Marnell Corrao guaranteed maximum price contract. These budgeted costs include:

        We are responsible for these components of the budget, including any cost overruns with respect to these components. Of this remaining $485 million of budgeted design and construction costs, we have spent approximately 8.4% to date. We have received bids with respect to items comprising another 36.6% of these remaining budgeted costs (though we have not accepted these bids and therefore the bids are subject to change.) Accordingly, we

92



have spent money or received non-binding bids for a total of approximately 45% of these remaining budgeted costs.

        We have entered into a design/build contract with Bomel for the design and construction of the principal parking garage for a lump sum of $9.9 million, subject to certain exceptions, including any changes in the scope of work, force majeure or owner delays. Design work for the construction is substantially complete. We expect that construction will commence in October 2002. We expect to solicit competitive bids in late summer 2002 for the construction of the golf course and to award the contract in the fourth quarter of 2002. We expect that the newly constructed golf course will be available for play when Le Rêve opens.

        We expect to lease approximately eight of the retail shops at Le Rêve to third parties and intend to provide some of our retail tenants an allowance for improvements as part of the lease arrangements. We will own and operate the remaining approximately eighteen retail shops at Le Rêve and will be responsible for constructing any improvements. These construction costs and allowances are included in our design and construction budget for Le Rêve. Design and/or construction costs in excess of an allowance are intended to be the responsibility of the particular retail tenant. Nevertheless, if we are unable to successfully negotiate leases consistent with our design and construction budget, we may have to fund or construct, at our cost, additional improvements in connection with the leases relating to the space.

        We intend to operate most of the restaurants at Le Rêve. We plan to construct the improvements for all of the restaurants, whether managed by us or by third parties, and the costs of those improvements are included in our design and construction budget.

        We believe that the overall design and construction budget of $1.4 billion is reasonable. In addition to the guaranteed maximum price provisions of the construction contract, we plan to implement specific mechanisms that are intended to reduce the risk of construction cost overruns and delays, including:

93


Despite these protections, design and construction costs may be significantly higher than expected. Furthermore, if we do not complete construction of Le Rêve by August 31, 2005, subject to limited permitted extensions due to force majeure events, we will be in default under the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes, and the holders of our indebtedness will have the right to accelerate our indebtedness and exercise other rights and remedies against us. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness—We are highly leveraged and future cash flow may not be sufficient to meet our obligations, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes, and we might have difficulty obtaining more financing." We do not expect to be able to obtain insurance for delayed opening of Le Rêve, loss of use of the project or loss due to force majeure events. See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction."

        We have entered into an agreement with Calitri Services and Licensing Limited Liability Company, under which Calitri will create, develop and produce the show to be presented in the Le Rêve showroom. This agreement is in the process of being amended. We expect that, under the agreement, as it will be amended, Calitri will be required to employ Franco Dragone as the principal creator of the production. The concept of the production, which involves a water-based show in Le Rêve's showroom, has already been approved by Mr. Wynn and is under development and pre-production. Wynn Las Vegas will pay Calitri a $2 million creation fee, $1 million of which has been paid, and fund parts of the development and production budgets. Wynn Las Vegas will pay the remaining $1 million of this fee upon the completion of this offering. In addition, Calitri will receive 10% of the revenue and one-half of the profits of the production. We also anticipate that Calitri and Wynn Las Vegas will have joint and equal ownership rights to the production and any related intellectual property rights and that the initial term of the agreement will be ten years. However, it is also currently contemplated that, if the production fails to satisfy certain revenue requirements, Wynn Las Vegas will be able to terminate the agreement prior to the end of its term. In addition, it is contemplated that the agreement, as amended, will provide Wynn Las Vegas with an option to renew the agreement for an additional five-year term.

        We have also paid Calitri $1 million for an option with respect to a second production for Le Rêve or for another project. We anticipate that we will be required to pay an additional $1 million if we exercise the option.

        Following the completion of this offering and the offering of Wynn Resorts' common stock, Wynn Resorts plans to grant Mr. Dragone an award of            shares of restricted stock. The restricted stock will be subject to Wynn Resorts' repurchase right, which will lapse in June 2006. This restricted stock award is intended to be part of the compensation paid to Mr. Dragone for his role as principal creator of the production. Although the form of the restricted stock grant has not been finalized, management believes that compensation expense, based on the fair value of the stock grant at the measurement date, will be recognized and that such compensation expense will be capitalized as part of the cost of constructing the entertainment production. Because the price of the stock at the measurement date is presently unknown and the form of the agreement has yet to be finalized, management is unable to estimate the amount of compensation expense expected to be associated with the restricted stock grant at this time.

94


        In addition, we continue to explore opportunities to develop additional gaming or related businesses, in Las Vegas or other markets, whether through acquisition, investment or development. Any such development would require us to obtain additional financing. We may decide to conduct any such development through Wynn Resorts or through a line of subsidiaries separate from the Le Rêve entities.

        Overview.    Las Vegas is one of the fastest growing leisure, lodging and entertainment markets in the country. Las Vegas hotel occupancy rates are among the highest of any major market in the United States. According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, the number of visitors traveling to Las Vegas has continued to increase at a steady and significant rate. The number of visitors increased from approximately 29.6 million in 1996 to approximately 35.0 million visitors in 2001, a compound annual growth rate of 3.3%. Aggregate expenditures by these visitors increased at a compound annual growth rate of 7.5%, from approximately $22.5 billion in 1996 to approximately $31.6 billion in 2001. The number of residents in Clark County, the greater Las Vegas area, has increased from 1,115,940 residents in 1996 to 1,425,723 residents in 2000, a compound annual growth rate of 6.6%.

        Expanding Hotel and Gaming Market.    Las Vegas has one of the strongest and most resilient hotel markets in the country and, according to the American Gaming Association, has the highest casino gaming revenue in the United States. Major properties on the Las Vegas Strip that have opened over the past ten years include Bellagio, Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, New York-New York Hotel and Casino, Paris Las Vegas, Aladdin Resort & Casino and The Venetian. In addition, a number of existing properties on the Las Vegas Strip embarked on expansions during this period including MGM Grand Hotel and Casino, Luxor Hotel and Casino, Circus Circus Hotel, Casino and Theme Park, Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino and Caesars Palace. Despite this significant increase in the supply of rooms in Las Vegas, hotel total occupancy rates for all days exceeded on average 90.6% for the years 1990 to 1999, averaged 92.5% in 2000 and 88.9% in 2001.

HOTEL ROOM SUPPLY AND OCCUPANCY GRAPH

95


        According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, Clark County gross gaming revenue has increased by 31%, from approximately $5.8 billion in 1996 to approximately $7.6 billion in 2001. As a result of the increased popularity of gaming, Las Vegas has sought to increase its popularity as an overall vacation resort destination. The number of hotel rooms in Las Vegas has increased by 30.6% from 80,952 in 1996 to 105,702 in 2001.

ROOM INVENTORY AND REVENUE GRAPH

We believe that the growth in the Las Vegas market has been enhanced as a result of a dedicated program by both the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and major Las Vegas hotels to promote Las Vegas as a major vacation and convention site and the increased capacity of McCarran International Airport.

        Growth of Las Vegas Retail Sector and Non-Gaming Revenue Expenditures.    The Las Vegas market continues to evolve from its historical gaming focus to broader entertainment and leisure offerings. In addition to the traditional attractiveness of gaming, the market is continuing to expand to include retail, fine dining, sporting activities, major concerts and other forms of entertainment. This diversification has contributed to the growth of the market and broadened the universe of individuals who would consider Las Vegas as a vacation destination. The more diversified entertainment and leisure offerings present significant growth opportunities. In particular, the newer, large theme-destination resorts have been designed to capitalize on this development by providing better quality hotel rooms at higher rates and by providing expanded shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities to their patrons, in addition to gaming.

        Las Vegas as a Convention Center Attraction.    According to Tradeshow Week 200, an annual publication that analyzes the 200 largest trade shows in the United States, Las Vegas was the most popular trade show destination in the United States with a 28.4% market share of the Tradeshow Week 200 shows in terms of net square footage and one of the most popular convention destinations in the United States in 2001. In 1996, approximately 3.3 million persons attended conventions in Las Vegas, providing approximately $3.9 billion in non-gaming trade show and convention revenue. By 2001, the number of convention attendees increased to more than 4 million, providing approximately $4.8 billion in non-gaming and trade show convention revenue.

        Trade shows are held for the purpose of getting sellers and buyers of products or services together in order to conduct business. Trade shows differ from conventions in that trade

96



shows typically require substantial amounts of space for exhibition purposes and participant circulation. Conventions generally are gatherings of companies or groups that require less space for breakout meetings and general meetings of the overall group. Las Vegas offers trade shows and conventions a unique infrastructure for handling the world's largest shows. This includes a concentration of approximately 72,000 hotel rooms located on the Las Vegas Strip, two of the largest convention centers in the United States—the Las Vegas Convention Center and the Sands Expo and Convention Center—with a total of over 4 million square feet of convention and exhibition space, convenient air service from major cities throughout the United States and other countries and significant entertainment attractions. In addition to the Sands Expo and Convention Center and the Las Vegas Convention Center, the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino has constructed a conference and meeting facility of approximately 380,000 gross square feet. The Mirage has recently added approximately 90,000 gross square feet of meeting space, and Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino has begun construction of an approximately 1.8 million square foot convention center with an estimated completion date in early 2003. We believe that Las Vegas will continue to evolve as one of the country's preferred trade show and convention destinations.

        Statistics on the Las Vegas Gaming Industry.    The following table sets forth certain information derived from published reports of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and the Nevada State Gaming Control Board concerning Las Vegas Strip gaming revenue and visitor volume and hotel data for the years 1996 to 2001. As shown in the table, the Las Vegas market has achieved significant growth in visitor volume and tourist revenue.

        Hotel/Casino Competition.    The casino/hotel industry is highly competitive. Le Rêve, which will be located on the Las Vegas Strip, will compete with other high-quality resorts and hotel casinos in Las Vegas on the basis of overall atmosphere, range of amenities, level of service, price, location, entertainment offered, theme and size. Le Rêve will compete with

97


hotels on the Las Vegas Strip and those in downtown Las Vegas, as well as a large number of hotels and motels in and near Las Vegas.

        In June 2003, The Venetian expects to complete a 1,000-room hotel tower on top of the resort's existing parking garage. Also, Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino has announced that it expects to begin construction of a 1,122-room, all-suite tower connected to the current hotel casino resort in September 2002, with an expected opening date in October 2003. Other than the expansions of The Venetian and Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, we are not aware of any significant additions of hotel rooms to major hotel casino resort properties in Las Vegas or any developments of new major hotel casino resort properties in Las Vegas in the near future. Many competing properties, such as the Bellagio, Caesars Palace, Luxor Hotel and Casino, Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino, The Mirage, Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino, New York-New York Hotel and Casino, Paris Las Vegas, Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino, Treasure Island at The Mirage and The Venetian, have themes and attractions which draw a significant number of visitors and will directly compete with our operations. Some of these facilities are operated by companies that have more than one operating facility and may have greater name recognition and financial and marketing resources than us and target the same demographic group as we will. We will seek to differentiate Le Rêve from other major Las Vegas resorts by concentrating on our fundamental elements of design, atmosphere, personal service and level of luxury.

        Las Vegas casinos also compete, to some extent, with other hotel/casino facilities in Nevada and in Atlantic City, riverboat gaming facilities in other states, hotel/casino facilities elsewhere in the world, state lotteries, Internet gaming and other forms of gaming. In addition, certain states recently have legalized, and others may or are likely to legalize, casino gaming in specific areas. Passage of the Tribal Government Gaming and Economic Self-Sufficiency Act in 1988 has led to rapid increases in Native American gaming operations. Also, in March 2000, California voters approved an amendment to the California Constitution allowing federally recognized Native American tribes to conduct and operate slot machines, lottery games and banked and percentage card games on Native American land in California. As a result, casino-style gaming on tribal lands is growing and could become a significant competitive force. The proliferation of Native American gaming in California could have a negative impact on our operations. The proliferation of gaming activities in other areas could significantly harm our business as well. In particular, the legalization of casino gaming in or near metropolitan areas, such as New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Boston, from which we intend to attract customers, could have a substantial negative effect on our business. In addition, new or renovated casinos in Macau or elsewhere in Asia could draw Asian gaming customers, including high-rollers, away from Las Vegas. See "Our Affiliate's Opportunity in Macau—Competition within Macau and from Regional Markets."

        Our casino will also compete, to some extent, with other forms of gaming on both a local and national level, including state-sponsored lotteries, on-and off-track wagering and card parlors. The expansion of legalized gaming to new jurisdictions throughout the United States will also increase competition we face and will continue to do so in the future. Additionally, if gaming is legalized in jurisdictions near our property or our target markets where it currently is not permitted, we will face additional competition.

        Retail Competition.    Le Rêve's retail stores will operate in a highly competitive environment. Le Rêve's retail stores will compete with other retail stores located in other Las Vegas hotel casino resorts and shopping districts. Among these Las Vegas shopping locations, Le Rêve will face significant competition from the retail stores at Bellagio, the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, which is expected to complete a 200,000 square foot expansion in 2004, The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian and Desert Passage at Aladdin Resort & Casino. In

98



particular, Le Rêve's retail stores will face competition from the premium retail stores of the Fashion Show Mall, which is owned by The Rouse Company, a publicly traded company. The Fashion Show Mall, which is situated across the Las Vegas Strip from Le Rêve, is currently undergoing an extensive remodeling and expansion program, reportedly increasing its size from approximately 773,000 square feet to nearly 2 million square feet. Beginning in November 2002, the Fashion Show Mall is expected to contain an approximately 180,000 square foot Nordstrom and a flagship store of Bloomingdale's Home & Furniture. The expansion of the Fashion Show Mall is expected to be completed in October 2003 with a new Lord & Taylor and is expected to include a total of approximately 300 shops. In addition, Le Rêve's retail stores will compete with outlet shopping areas located on the way to Las Vegas from Los Angeles and other places, which tend to offer merchandise at discounted prices.

        Our retail stores will compete on the basis of, among other things, the location of our stores, the breadth, quality, style, and availability of merchandise, the level of customer service offered and merchandise price. We will also compete with other retail properties for retail businesses on the basis of the rent charged and location.

        We believe that our retail operations will generate approximately 5% of our total revenue. However, we will face significant competition in this market area. Any increase in our competitors' market share for retail customers in Las Vegas could negatively impact our operations in a significant manner. See "Risk Factors—General Risks Associated with Our Business—The casino, hotel, convention, retail and other facilities at Le Rêve will face intense competition."

        Our marketing strategy consists of positioning Le Rêve as a full-service luxury resort and casino in the leisure, convention and tour and travel markets. Prior to the opening of Le Rêve, we will create general market awareness about Le Rêve's product offerings through conventions and media, including television, radio, newspapers, magazines, internet, direct mail, and billboards. We also expect that the third party retail tenants will engage in their own general advertising and promotional activity, which we expect will benefit all of Le Rêve's retail shops.

        We believe that Le Rêve will attract wealthy international and domestic gaming customers due in part to the high degree of customer recognition and guest loyalty that we believe Mr. Wynn has developed over the last two decades by operating some of the signature properties on the Las Vegas strip. In addition, we currently employ a number of experienced international and domestic casino marketing executives. We believe that Mr. Wynn's reputation will allow us to continue to attract marketing executives of this caliber.

        Le Rêve plans to have marketing executives located in local offices in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Taiwan, Europe, New York and southern California, as well as independent marketing representatives in major U.S. and foreign cities. We also plan to develop a guest loyalty program at Le Rêve that will integrate in real-time, all gaming, hotel, food, beverage and retail revenue of a particular guest and compare it against incurred expenses to determine the profitability of that guest. We will use this program to implement a rewards system that offers discounted and complementary meals, lodging and entertainment for our guests. We will also use that information to develop an integrated database that will allow us to target specific customers for promotions that might induce them to visit Le Rêve.

        Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Macau anticipate that they will be able to cross-market Le Rêve and the planned Macau property to both domestic and international customers.

99



Seasonality

        We do not consider our Las Vegas business to be particularly seasonal. However, we expect that our revenue and cash flow may be slightly reduced during the summer months due to the tendency of Las Vegas room rates to be lower at that time of the year.

Employees

        We currently employ approximately 200 employees in the U.S. We anticipate that when Le Rêve opens, we will employ nearly 8,000 employees in connection with the operation of Le Rêve. As a result, we will need to undertake a major recruiting and training program before the opening. However, we believe that we will be able to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified individuals to operate the hotel and casino. We believe that we will be able to capitalize on Mr. Wynn's reputation and established relationships with former gaming, hotel and food and beverage employees in the Nevada community to supply the necessary work force to adequately operate Le Rêve's hotel casino resort. Under Mr. Wynn, Mirage Resorts was ranked as the fourth best company in the United States in quality of management in the March 3, 1997 issue of Fortune magazine. We will pay competitive market wages to our employees.

        Currently, Valvino is a party to several collective bargaining agreements with several different unions which it assumed in connection with the acquisition of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino. All of these agreements will expire before the scheduled opening of Le Rêve. However, the unions may seek to organize the workers at Le Rêve or claim that the agreements assumed in connection with Valvino's acquisition of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino obligate Wynn Las Vegas to enter into negotiations with one or more of the unions to represent the workers at Le Rêve. Unionization or pressure to unionize could increase our labor costs.

Trademarks and Service Marks

        Our most important marks are LE RÊVE for hotel services and LE RÊVE for casino services. We have purchased the common-law name and mark "LE RÊVE" from a California trust operating a hotel by that name. This purchase removed the California trust as a prior user with superior rights. We have also applied to register the "LE RÊVE" service mark in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, referred to as the PTO, for hotel services. Our application for the LE RÊVE hotel mark has cleared the PTO examination process. It was "published for opposition." If no member of the public opposes or seeks time to oppose by August 16, 2002, LE RÊVE will be registered for hotel services, and restaurant, bar, lounge and health spa services.

        We have also applied to register the "LE RÊVE" service mark with the PTO for combined casino and entertainment services. Because the PTO translates "LE RÊVE" as "THE DREAM," it has cited certain "DREAM" marks as a basis for preliminarily refusing to allow some of our "LE RÊVE" applications to proceed toward registration. The PTO's objection appears to relate solely to entertainment services, and not casino services. Accordingly, we will divide the application to register LE RÊVE for casino services from entertainment services and therefore not be subject to the objections to entertainment services.

        In addition, we have applied to register this mark for other uses, including gift shop items, retail services, clothing, golf balls and golf accessories, toys, tote bags, mugs, and others, none of which, individually, will be material to our business. Our application for Le Rêve retail services was preliminarily refused based on a prior registration of Le Reve for wines. Each of these applications is pending. None of the non-hotel and non-casino applications for LE RÊVE

100



are for goods or services that would, if finally rejected, have a material impact on our business.

        Even if we are able to obtain registration of the LE RÊVE mark for the above-described applications, such federal registration is not completely dispositive of the right to such trademarks. Third parties with prior rights with respect to DREAM marks or to marks similar to LE RÊVE may nonetheless challenge our use of LE RÊVE and seek to overcome the presumptions afforded by the registration. They also could attempt to prevent our use of LE RÊVE and/or seek monetary damages as a result of our use.

Properties

        Las Vegas Land.    We currently own approximately 212 acres of land on or near the Las Vegas Strip on the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino. Le Rêve will total 192 acres consisting of approximately 55 acres, owned by Wynn Las Vegas, at the northeast corner of the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Sands Avenue and the approximately 137-acre golf course, owned by Wynn Resorts Holdings, to be constructed behind the hotel. The balance of the 212 acres consists of an additional parcel of approximately 20 acres fronting Las Vegas Boulevard next to the Le Rêve site, owned by Valvino, that is available for future development.

        We will use the 20-acre parcel while we are constructing Le Rêve for our corporate offices, pre-opening activities, recruiting and employment purposes and employee parking. If we meet prescribed cash flow tests for four consecutive calendar quarters after commencement of operations at Le Rêve, the 20-acre parcel will be released from the liens under the credit facilities and second mortgage notes and could be transferred to Wynn Resorts or another entity. In addition, the lenders under the credit facilities may release the liens on the 20-acre parcel if we meet these prescribed cash flow tests for two consecutive calendar quarters after commencement of operation at Le Rêve and, in such event the liens of the second mortgage noteholders in the 20-acre parcel would be automatically released. In that event, Wynn Resorts or the other entity may decide to develop the parcel in the future, either on its own or through a joint venture. For example, in the future, Wynn Resorts or another entity may decide to develop a second hotel casino as a Phase II development on the parcel to take advantage of the substantial infrastructure and amenities planned for Le Rêve. The Le Rêve design will include a major access corridor that could be used to connect a Phase II development to Le Rêve.

        Similarly, three years after commencement of operations at Le Rêve and upon our satisfaction of prescribed maximum leverage ratio and minimum credit rating requirements, the land underlying the golf course, which is owned by Wynn Golf Course, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Valvino, will be released from the liens under the credit facilities and the indenture governing the second mortgage notes and could be transferred by Wynn Resorts Holdings to Wynn Resorts or another entity. In addition, portions of the golf course land may be released from the liens to permit residential or other non-gaming development if we satisfy prescribed cash flow tests for a full fiscal year after Le Rêve commences operation and the development does not interfere with the use of the golf course and otherwise could not reasonably be expected to materially impair the overall value of Le Rêve.

        Las Vegas Water Rights.    Valvino indirectly owns approximately 949 acre-feet of certificated water rights through its indirect subsidiary, Desert Inn Improvement Co. We plan to use this water for general irrigation purposes including irrigation of the golf course. Desert Inn Improvement Co. also currently provides water service to the existing office building on the site of the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino and the remaining homes around the golf course. As a result, Desert Inn Improvement Co. is a public utility under Nevada law and is

101



subject to regulatory restrictions imposed by the Nevada Public Utilities Commission. See "Risk Factors—General Risks Associated with Our Business—We will be subject to regulatory control by the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada." Desert Inn Improvement Co. does not use these water rights to provide water to its public utility customers. Under Nevada law, we obtained the approval of the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada for Wynn Resorts to complete its offering of common stock.

        Valvino directly owns an additional approximately 36 acre-feet of certificated water rights. This water will be used to supply the water for the Le Rêve lake, subject to the approval of the Nevada State Engineer. There are significant cost savings and conservation benefits associated with using water supplied pursuant to our water rights.

Legal Proceedings

        From time to time, we are involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of the ordinary course of business.

        In addition, Valvino is currently involved in litigation related to its ownership and development of the former Desert Inn golf course and the residential lots around the golf course. Valvino acquired some, but not all, of the residential lots located in the interior of and around the former Desert Inn golf course when it acquired the former Desert Inn Resort & Casino from Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. Valvino later acquired all of the remaining lots located in the interior of, and some of the remaining lots around, the former Desert Inn golf course. In total, Valvino acquired 63 of the 75 residential lots, with Clark County having acquired two of the lots through eminent domain in 1994 as part of the widening of Desert Inn Road. The residential lots, previously known collectively as the Desert Inn Country Club Estates, were subject to various conditions, covenants and restrictions recorded against the lots in 1956 and amended from time to time since then.

        On October 31, 2000, Ms. Stephanie Swain, as trustee of the Mark Swain Revocable Trust, and some of the homeowners whose lots Valvino did not purchase filed an action in Clark County against Valvino and the then directors of the Desert Inn Country Club Estates Homeowners' Association. The plaintiffs are seeking various forms of declaratory relief concerning the continued governance of the homeowners' association. In addition, the plaintiffs have challenged the termination in June 2001 of the conditions, covenants and restrictions recorded against the residential lots. The plaintiffs also seek to establish certain easement rights that Ms. Swain and the other homeowners claim to possess. Specifically, the remaining homeowners seek to establish easement rights to enter upon the golf course for exercise and other leisure purposes, and to use the perimeter roadways for entrance and exit purposes. At least two of the plaintiffs also have alleged the existence of an equitable implied restriction prohibiting any alternative commercial development of the golf course. Two subsequent actions were filed, one by Ms. Swain against certain homeowners' association members and one by Valvino seeking declaratory and injunctive relief similar to the original action. Because the issues in the subsequent actions are present in the original action, both of the subsequent actions have been stayed pending the outcome of the original action.

        The trial in this matter is scheduled for February 2003. The court has, nonetheless, entered several preliminary injunction orders concerning the parties' respective property rights. Among other things, the court has ordered that Valvino is free to develop the golf course and the remainder of its property as it deems fit, subject to all applicable legal restraints. In that regard, Valvino was permitted to remove all homes and structures on its properties surrounding the golf course and those located on the Country Club Lane cul de sac, which ran to the interior of the golf course. Valvino has removed all structures that were on its lots, together with the cul-de-sac, and has relandscaped the property to blend into the

102



existing golf course. The court has also entered an order prohibiting Ms. Swain from filing a lis pendens against the golf course property. A lis pendens is a notice filed on public records to warn all persons that the title to certain property is in litigation and that the effect of such litigation will be binding on the owner of the property.

        The plaintiffs have sought, and successfully obtained, a preliminary injunction to compel Valvino to subsidize security to homeowners who reside near the project. Valvino has appealed this ruling and the issue is now pending before the Nevada Supreme Court.

        Discovery in this case is currently ongoing. Valvino is vigorously contesting all of the homeowners' claims and will continue to do so. However, if the plaintiffs prevail on their claims and the conditions, covenants and restrictions on the lots remain in effect, we may have to adjust our current plans for the construction of the golf course by redesigning some of the holes located on the periphery of the course. In addition, if the court finds that there is an implied equitable restriction on the golf course lots, any future development of the golf course parcel for an alternative use may be restricted.

CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS FOR LE RÊVE

        The following discussion summarizes the material terms of our construction contracts. These summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to the contracts themselves.

Construction of the Hotel/Casino

        We have entered into a construction agreement with Marnell Corrao, the contractor, for construction services for a substantial portion of the construction, but not design, of Le Rêve, excluding the principal parking garage and the golf course construction, for a guaranteed maximum price. The guaranteed maximum price is approximately $919 million (subject to various contingent adjustments). The guaranteed maximum price includes:

        The guaranteed date of substantial completion is 910 calendar days from the date we direct Marnell Corrao by written notice to commence construction.

        Although we have determined the overall scope and general design of Le Rêve, not all of the plans and specifications for the construction components that are the subject of the guaranteed maximum price contract have been finalized. Specifically, the approximately $919 million maximum price includes construction components totaling approximately $493.5 million for which detailed plans have not yet been finalized. The guaranteed maximum price for these components is based on master concept plans and agreed upon design and other premises and assumptions for the detailed plans to be created for the remaining components. If the plans for these components do not substantially conform to the premises and assumptions described in the construction contract, or if we request change orders with respect to these components or any component for which there are final plans or defects or deficiencies in the architectural plans or concealed conditions, we will be responsible for the excess costs. For example, if the initial drawings, when finalized, are inconsistent with the premises and assumptions, we will be responsible for the increase, if any, in the cost to construct the work covered by those drawings over the previously agreed upon amounts designated for such work in the guaranteed maximum price, even if the drawings are redesigned to be consistent with the premises and assumptions. The premises and assumptions reflect general concepts and techniques pursuant to which the contractor will construct Le Rêve. However, the premises and assumptions may not be sufficiently specific so as to determine, as between the contractor and us, who is responsible for cost overruns in specific situations.

        As of the date of this prospectus, and with regard to a portion of the construction budget covered by the Marnell Corrao construction contract:

104


        Drawings for the interior work on the project have not been finished. If the cost to complete the interior work exceeds budgeted amounts, the excess will not be covered by the guaranteed maximum price contract and, accordingly, we will be responsible for these excess costs.

        There are also certain permit and similar fees and costs of approximately $13.8 million which are not Marnell Corrao's responsibility and are not a part of the guaranteed maximum price, but are our responsibility.

        The construction contract calls for the cost of the work provided by Marnell Corrao to be at the lowest reasonably available prices obtainable by Marnell Corrao's best efforts, unless we have given prior written consent to incur higher expenses.

        If we reasonably believe at any time, based on the progress of the work and the cost of the work, that the work cannot be completed for the guaranteed maximum price, we have the right after certain notice periods to require Marnell Corrao to provide us with satisfactory evidence of funds available to Marnell Corrao to pay any anticipated overages.

        Due to the lack of final plans for substantial portions of the project, the construction contract does not require Marnell Corrao to adhere to specific cost limits on a line item basis. Rather, it only obligates Marnell Corrao to complete the construction within an overall guaranteed maximum price subject to certain general balancing and other requirements. Therefore, subject to the general balancing requirements of the construction contract, there is a risk that the funds earmarked for the guaranteed maximum price could be exhausted before substantial completion of the project should Marnell Corrao spend greater amounts on certain line items in the earlier stages of construction. In addition, the disbursement agreement and the credit facilities will contain balancing provisions requiring us to demonstrate, as a condition to every release or drawdown of funds, that we have sufficient funds available to cover all remaining construction costs, plus required contingency, in accordance with our construction budget. Accordingly, if Marnell Corrao spends greater amounts than anticipated in respect of any component of the work, we may be denied further access to the proceeds of the second mortgage notes and under the credit facilities.

        We will continue to evaluate the project design in relation to its construction schedule and budget and the demands of the Las Vegas tourist and gaming market. Accordingly, the design of individual elements of Le Rêve may be refined from the descriptions contained in this prospectus.

105



        The construction contract with Marnell Corrao provides that the guaranteed maximum price will be appropriately increased, and the deadline for completion of construction will be appropriately adjusted, on account of, among other circumstances:

        We will commence construction of Le Rêve before all plans and specifications will be completed. Delays in completing the remaining drawings and specifications could cause delays in the substantial completion of the work and, under specific circumstances, could defer the contractor's obligation to deliver the completed project by the scheduled completion date.

        Cost overruns could cause us to be out of "balance" under the second mortgage notes, credit facilities and FF&E facility and, consequently, unable to obtain funds from the second mortgage note proceeds secured account or to draw down under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility. If we cannot obtain these funds, we will not be able to open Le Rêve to the general public on schedule or at all. Given that we are required to use the proceeds of the second mortgage notes in full before borrowing on the credit facilities and the FF&E facility, if any such "out of balance" event occurs in the latter stages of construction, the second mortgage note holders would be fully exposed and the lenders under our credit facilities and FF&E facility would have no obligation to commence or continue funding loans under their respective facilities.

        When we finalize plans or specifications in the future, we may discover that we need to obtain additional funding, which may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all, or we may choose to reduce the scope of the work and design components to reduce the costs of constructing the project. Any such reduction in scope would be subject, under specified circumstances, to obtaining the consent of the lenders under the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage note holders as required under the disbursement agreement.

        Unless we specify otherwise, subcontractors will be selected after a bidding process that includes, to the extent practicable, at least three bidders from a list of bidders provided by Marnell Corrao. Marnell Corrao will submit the various bids received from prospective subcontractors, all information available to Marnell Corrao with respect to the bids and prospective subcontractors and Marnell Corrao's recommendation of the prospective subcontractor for the contract. We, with Marnell Corrao's assistance, will select each subcontractor based on this information. If we select a subcontractor other than one recommended by Marnell Corrao, and there is a difference in the bids of the subcontractor we select above stated thresholds, the guaranteed maximum price may be increased.

106


        Marnell Corrao is responsible for achieving "substantial completion" of the work by a guaranteed date of substantial completion. Substantial completion is defined in the construction contract as the stage in the progress of the development of Le Rêve when it is sufficiently complete, including the receipt of necessary permits, licenses and approvals, so that all aspects of Le Rêve covered by the construction contract can be open to the general public. As mentioned earlier, under the construction contract, the guaranteed date of substantial completion is 910 calendar days from the date we direct Marnell Corrao by written notice to commence construction. This period is referred to in the construction contract as the "contract time," and may only be adjusted in accordance with the construction contract. The contract time may be extended, among other reasons, due to force majeure events as noted below, and changes by us in the scope of the work.

        Plans for a substantial portion of the approximately $919 million guaranteed maximum price construction budget have not been finalized. Delays in completing the remaining drawings and specifications could cause delays in the substantial completion of the work and, under certain circumstances, could defer Marnell Corrao's obligation to deliver the completed project by the scheduled completion date.

        Austi, the parent company of Marnell Corrao, has agreed to provide a continuing guaranty by which Austi guarantees Marnell Corrao's full performance and payment obligations under the construction contract until final payment under that contract. Austi is a private company controlled by the Anthony A. Marnell II family.

        Under certain circumstances, the contract may allow Marnell Carrao an extension of the contract time. These circumstances include:

        Under the construction contract, Marnell Corrao is required to obtain a performance and payment bond in the amount of $150 million, covering its performance of the construction contract and payment of obligations thereunder. The construction contract requires Marnell Corrao to obtain this bond no later than five business days after it receives written notice from us to commence construction and, in any event, prior to the commencement of the work. The performance and payment bond will be issued by a bonding company with an A.M. Best Co. rating of A XV or better, and will name us and agent for the lenders under the credit facilities and the trustee on behalf of the second mortgage note holders as obligees and beneficiaries. After it is issued, the performance and payment bond may not be increased or

107


decreased unless we approve in advance. Certain of the subcontractors performing work for Marnell Corrao on the project will also be bonded.

        If Marnell Corrao achieves substantial completion of the work before the guaranteed date of substantial completion without increasing the cost of the work to achieve such early completion, we will pay Marnell Corrao an early completion bonus equal to $50,000 per day for each day before the guaranteed date of substantial completion that the work was substantially completed. The amount of the early completion bonus will not exceed $1 million.

        If Marnell Corrao fails to achieve substantial completion of the work within the contract time, Marnell Corrao will pay us, as liquidated damages, $300,000 per day beginning on the sixth day after the guaranteed substantial completion date and continuing every day thereafter until substantial completion of the work is achieved or the total amount of liquidated damages equals $9 million. Marnell Corrao's liability to us for damages arising solely from delays caused by Marnell Corrao or for which Marnell Corrao is responsible, will not exceed $9 million as provided in the construction contract. We cannot assure you that construction will be completed on schedule and, if completion of the construction is delayed beyond the grace period, our actual damages likely will exceed $300,000 per day.

        Marnell Corrao must make an itemized application for payment based on an approved schedule of values. Payment of the application is subject to approval by us and our lenders, based on the conditions of the construction contract. Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Nevada Revised Statutes, the construction contract allows us to withhold amounts from any payments due to Marnell Corrao which we determine to be necessary to protect us against liens until the liens are bonded or otherwise discharged. See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction—Development costs of Le Rêve are estimates only and actual development costs may be higher than expected." We are entitled to retain 10% of all monies due to subcontractors under the monthly applications for payment until the work is complete, though there is no retainage on payments to Marnell Corrao or vendors. However, after 50% of the scope of the work is complete, we may elect to reduce the level of retention for selected subcontractors under certain conditions and subject to the approval of our lenders.

        Marnell Corrao's general construction warranty and guarantee extends for one year after substantial completion of the work. Marnell Corrao guarantees that its construction workmanship will be first class in quality, free from all faults and defects, and that the work will comply with the construction contract requirements and all applicable laws, codes and regulations. Marnell Corrao also guarantees that all materials, equipment, mechanical devices and supplies incorporated into the work will be new and will strictly meet the specifications and requirements of the construction contract. Marnell Corrao's warranty excludes damages or defects caused by ordinary wear and tear, insufficient maintenance, improper operation or improper use by us. Furthermore, Marnell Corrao warrants that Marnell Corrao has substantial experience in performing major projects with scopes of work similar to Le Rêve, and, where required by law, is licensed to perform the work.

        The construction contract with Marnell Corrao provides that the one year period of their general construction warranty is not a limitation on any of Marnell Corrao's other obligations

108



under the construction contract or applicable law. Further, the one year period is not intended to reduce the period of any other similar warranty or guaranty that may apply at law or otherwise to work on the project by Marnell Corrao or any subcontractor. The current Nevada limitations period for claims relating to defective work which might arise under the express warranty extends beyond the one year warranty period provided in the construction contract. The construction contract also provides that we shall have the benefit of all vendor and subcontractor warranties relating to the work. Marnell Corrao will assign to us all subcontractor warranties and/or guarantees. Marnell Corrao also agrees to assist us in prosecuting the enforcement of all subcontractor and vendor warranties. Thus, it is anticipated that we may have available to us one or more avenues of potential recourse, including under governing law and subcontractor and vendor warranties, for defective work discovered first after the one year express warranty expires.

        Through the owner-controlled insurance program, we will pay for and maintain builder's risk and "wrap-up" liability insurance upon Marnell Corrao's and all subcontractors' work at the site. This insurance includes:

        The owner-controlled insurance program will be for the benefit of us, Marnell Corrao and its subcontractors, unless specifically excluded, who have on-site employees. It is anticipated that the lenders under the credit facilities and the trustee on behalf of the second mortgage note holders will be required to be named as additional insureds under the insurance required to be carried under the construction contract. This coverage applies only to work performed under the construction contract at the site. Participation in the owner-controlled insurance program will be mandatory. Marnell Corrao is required to, and is required to cause all of the subcontractors to, complete all forms, submit the information required and comply with the terms of the owner-controlled insurance program manual. No exceptions can be made to this requirement without our prior approval.

        Additionally, Marnell Corrao is required to, and is required to cause the subcontractors to, obtain and maintain the following, which are not included in the owner-controlled insurance program:

Also, included as a cost of the work, and thus within the guaranteed maximum price, is our obligation to reimburse Marnell Corrao for certain other additional insurance maintained by Marnell Corrao and described in the construction contract. The cost of all such additional insurance described herein is included within the guaranteed maximum price and such cost shall be substantiated to our satisfaction. To the extent that this additional insurance is related to Marnell Corrao's work on the project, we will be named as an additional insured.

109



        We have the right to terminate or to modify the owner-controlled insurance program upon 30 days advance written notice to Marnell Corrao and each subcontractor covered by the owner-controlled insurance program. If Marnell Corrao or any subcontractor fails to, or is ineligible to, enroll in the owner-controlled insurance program or the owner-controlled insurance program is terminated, Marnell Corrao and the subcontractors must provide, pay for and maintain the following types of coverage in accordance with the requirements of the construction contract, including as to coverage amounts, and in addition to the additional insurance noted above:

For all of these policies, Marnell Corrao and all subcontractors must obtain a waiver of subrogation, where allowed by law, against us and all other named insureds and their agents and employees.

        Marnell Corrao has agreed to indemnify us, our affiliates and our lenders (including trustees and agents relating to the lenders under the credit facilities and the trustee on behalf of the second mortgage note holders) from all claims, liabilities, obligations, losses, suits, actions, legal proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, awards or judgments, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, that relate to or arise out of performance of the work or any act or omission of Marnell Corrao or any subcontractor or vendor and that are imposed by law or relate to, among other things:

        In the event of contributory negligence by us and/or any indemnitee, Marnell Corrao will only be liable for payment in direct proportion to Marnell Corrao's percentage of fault, if any. Further, Marnell Corrao's indemnification obligation does not apply to a claim to the extent of any insurance proceeds actually received by the indemnitee or to a claim related to hazardous materials, subject to certain exceptions, and is limited as to liquidated damages for delay in completion of construction.

        Also, under the construction contract, Wynn Las Vegas has agreed to indemnify Marnell Corrao and its affiliates from all claims, liabilities, obligations, losses, suits, actions, legal proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, awards or judgments, including reasonable attorneys'

110



fees and costs suffered by or threatened against Marnell Corrao and /or its affiliates that relate to or arise out of any act or omission by us and that are imposed by law or relate to:

        Certain liability limitations and releases in favor of the owner contained in the construction contract are also express limitations on the owner's indemnity obligations.

        Except as described below, we may cancel the construction contract or suspend, reduce, interrupt or delay, in whole or in part, the construction for our convenience at any time and under any circumstances by providing written notice to Marnell Corrao. If we cancel, suspend, reduce, interrupt or delay the construction contract, Marnell Corrao will do only the work necessary to preserve and protect the work already in progress and complete any work not cancelled, suspended, interrupted, delayed or reduced, and cancel all existing orders to vendors and subcontractors relating to terminated work. With respect to such cancellation, suspension, reduction, interruption or delay, the construction contract provides that we have no liability to Marnell Corrao or any subcontractor or vendor for, and neither Marnell Corrao nor any subcontractor or vendor may make any claim for, lost profit or overhead, and they have agreed to expressly limit their remedies in such event. However, our rights to terminate, suspend or delay the construction and the limitation on Marnell Corrao's remedies conflict with express provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes and may not be enforceable. See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction—Development costs of Le Rêve are estimates only and actual development costs may be higher than expected."

        Marnell Corrao has agreed to cooperate with all lenders, trustees, intercreditor agents, administrative agents and disbursement agents whom we designate, and will, on request, execute and deliver documents and instruments reasonably requested by those persons, including an amendment to the construction contract, so long as the amendment does not materially or substantially alter the rights, duties or obligations of Marnell Corrao and the subcontractors under the construction contract. Representatives of our lenders and the designated trustees, intercreditor agents, administrative agents and disbursement agents will also have access to the work and site and are entitled to audit Marnell Corrao, subcontractors and vendors to the same extent as we are. Material changes to the drawings, specifications, contract time and guaranteed maximum price also may be subject to approval of our lenders pursuant to the disbursement agreement.

        All claims relating to the construction contract initially must be made to us within 14 days after the claim arises. If we do not resolve the claim, the claim may be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the state or federal courts in Las Vegas or Clark County, Nevada. Pending resolution of any claim, and subject to the Nevada Revised Statutes, Marnell Corrao will continue to perform construction so long as Marnell Corrao is paid for any amounts not

111


in dispute. See "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Construction—Development costs of Le Rêve are estimates only and actual development costs may be higher than expected."

Construction of the Parking Garage

        Wynn Las Vegas has entered into a design/build contract with Bomel for the design and construction of the principal parking garage for a lump sum of $9.9 million, subject to specified exceptions. The principal parking garage will consist of approximately 1,840 parking spaces and associated infrastructure. Design work for the construction is substantially complete. We expect that construction will commence in October 2002.

        Bomel and its subcontractors will be covered by the owner-controlled insurance program to the same extent and subject to the same exceptions and requirements as Marnell Corrao and its subcontractors for the casino and hotel portion of Le Rêve. The obligations of Bomel will not be bonded.

        The construction contract for the parking garage provides that the maximum cost to us for completion of Bomel's work on the garage will not exceed $9.9 million, subject to certain exceptions, including any changes in the scope of work, force majeure or owner delays. To complete the garage facility, we expect to perform additional work under our own direction, which is budgeted to cost an additional approximately $1.65 million.

        Bomel's general construction warranty extends for one year, and up to five years with regard to some watertight aspects, after final completion of its work on the garage facility.

Construction of the Golf Course

        We estimate that the cost to construct the golf course will be approximately $21.5 million. We expect to solicit bids in late summer 2002 for the construction of the golf course and to award the contract in the fourth quarter of 2002. We cannot guarantee that our ultimate contract with a golf course contractor will contain provisions to protect us against cost overruns or delays associated with the golf course construction or that we will be able to obtain a guaranteed maximum price of $21.5 million.

OUR AFFILIATE'S OPPORTUNITY IN MACAU

        Currently, Wynn Macau is an indirect, 90% owned subsidiary of Wynn Resorts. Wynn Macau has committed to allow certain minority partners to invest in the Macau-related entities, after which Wynn Resorts is expected to indirectly own an approximately 82.5% economic interest in Wynn Macau before giving effect to any financing for the Macau opportunity. Wynn Resorts owns its interest in Wynn Macau through a line of subsidiaries that is separate from the subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts that own Le Rêve and, accordingly, Wynn Macau is not part of the restricted group. As a result, cash flow generated by the Macau casino(s) operated by Wynn Macau may not be available to service our indebtedness, including our obligations under the second mortgage notes, or support our operations, and the financing documents for the Macau opportunity may contain restrictions or prohibitions on the distribution to Wynn Resorts of any cash flow generated by the Macau casino(s).

        Wynn Macau has entered into a 20-year concession agreement with the government of the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China permitting it to construct and operate one or more casinos in Macau. Wynn Macau is obligated to invest no less than a total of 4 billion patacas (currently approximately US $500 million, using the exchange rate as of August 11, 2002) in one or more casino projects by June 26, 2009 and must commence operations of its first permanent casino resort no later than December 2006. If Wynn Macau does not invest 4 billion patacas by June 26, 2009, it is obligated to invest the remaining amount on projects related to its gaming operations in Macau that the Macau government approves, or on projects of public interest designated by the Macau government.

        The currency used in the concession agreement is the Macau pataca. We have converted all pataca references into U.S. dollars, using the exchange rate as of August 11, 2002. Although the Macau pataca is not a freely convertible currency, the Macau pataca and the Hong Kong dollar are linked to each other, and in many cases are used interchangeably in Macau. If Wynn Macau builds and/or operates one or more casinos in Macau, Wynn Reosrts will be subject to foreign exchange risk with respect to the foreign currency exchange rates between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Hong Kong dollar is linked and has remained relatively stable over the past several years.

        The Macau peninsula, located in southeast China on the South China Sea, is approximately 37 miles southwest of Hong Kong. Macau was a colony of Portugal for almost 450 years. In December 1999, Portugal transferred administration of Macau to China, which reestablished the territory as a special administrative region. In the past, gaming in Macau had been administered as a government sanctioned monopoly concession held by Sociedade de Turismo e Diversoes de Macau, controlled by Mr. Stanley Ho. This gaming business in Macau is currently conducted through a different entity named Sociedade de Jogos de Macau which is controlled by Mr. Ho.

        As described under the heading "Risk Factors—Risks Associated with Our Affiliate's Macau Opportunity," the development and completion of casino(s) in Macau is subject to numerous conditions and risks, including the following:

113


Wynn Macau may not proceed with the construction of casino(s) in Macau if, in the judgment of its management, such conditions and risks cannot be adequately resolved, or if these conditions and risks would adversely affect our ability to conduct gaming and hotel operations outside Macau, including at Le Rêve. However, the concession agreement does not contain provisions permitting Wynn Macau to terminate the concession agreement unilaterally, or permitting Wynn Macau to cease the development of casino(s) in Macau, for any of the reasons described above. The obligations under the Macau concession agreement are those of Wynn Resorts' indirect subsidiary, Wynn Macau. Accordingly, unless a court rules that Wynn Resorts and the intermediate Macau-related entities are not entitled to limited liability protection with respect to Wynn Macau's obligations under the concession agreement, or unless Wynn Resorts guarantees the performance of Wynn Macau's obligations thereunder, Wynn Resorts' exposure to the government of Macau would be no more than Wynn Macau's assets.

        In order to construct one or more casinos in Macau, Wynn Macau will have to acquire rights to land satisfactory for its project(s). The Macau Special Administrative Region owns most of the land in Macau and, in most cases, private interests in real property located in Macau are obtained only through leases and other grants of rights to use land from the government. The government of Macau has provisionally awarded Wynn Macau a concession to lease a parcel of land of approximately 14 acres located opposite the Hotel Lisboa (Macau's largest and most well-known hotel and casino) on which Wynn Macau intends to construct and operate a casino project. If Wynn Macau ultimately signs a land concession agreement formalizing this agreement in principle, the amount of the rent and other terms and conditions of the land concession will be fixed in that agreement. The term of the land concession would be 25 years, commencing on the date the concession contract is published in the Macau Official Gazette, and may be renewed at the option of Wynn Macau for successive periods terminating no later than December 19, 2049. In exchange for the land concession, Wynn Macau will be obligated to pay a premium of approximately 318 million patacas (currently approximately US $40 million). In addition, once the land concession is entered into, Wynn Macau would become obligated to pay the former concessionaire of a portion of that site approximately 160 million patacas (currently approximately US $20 million) for relinquishing that entity's rights to use its part of the land. Wynn Macau would be able to credit both this land concession premium and the payment to the former concessionaire toward its 4 billion pataca required investment in Macau.

        Currently, Wynn Macau is in the preliminary stages of formulating its strategy for its Macau operations. Wynn Macau has not yet determined how many casinos it will build, the scope, design or the timing of any project, or whether it will begin construction and operations in separate phases at the first permanent Macau casino resort or open one or more temporary casinos in locations other than the permanant site. Moreover, Wynn Macau would need to obtain the necessary financing to fund the development, design and construction of such project or projects.

114



        Wynn Macau's plans relating to the financing of the Macau opportunity are at the preliminary stages. Wynn Macau is considering different financing alternatives, including equity financing at the Wynn Macau level or at the level of one of Wynn Macau's intermediary holding companies, such as Wynn Resorts (Macau) Holdings, Ltd., and debt financing at the Wynn Macau level. Wynn Macau has no commitments relating to such financing and we cannot assure you that Wynn Macau will be able to obtain such financing on acceptable terms or at all.

        The following is a summary of the key terms of the concession agreement between Wynn Macau and the government of Macau. There are Chinese and Portuguese versions of the concession agreement, each of which is an official document of equal authority. The following summary is based on English translations of both of the official Chinese and Portuguese versions of the agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the two official versions of the concession agreement themselves.

        Wynn Macau has entered into a 20-year concession agreement with the government of the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China permitting it to construct and operate one or more casinos in Macau. Wynn Macau is obligated to invest no less than a total of 4 billion patacas (currently approximately US $500 million) in one or more casino projects by June 26, 2009 and must commence operations of its first permanent casino resort no later than December 2006. If Wynn Macau does not invest 4 billion patacas by June 26, 2009, it is obligated to invest the remaining amount on projects related to its gaming operations in Macau that the Macau government approves, or on projects of public interest designated by the Macau government.

        The concession agreement provides that Wynn Macau's business shall be limited to the operation of casino gaming or other prescribed forms of gaming. The concession agreement also permits Wynn Macau to operate other businesses that are related to casino gaming, such as a resort hotel, as part of an integrated facility with a casino, with the approval of the government of Macau. The concession agreement prohibits Wynn Macau from engaging in internet gaming and horse race or sports betting or offering games to the public on boats or aircraft, or in the form of a lottery.

        The concession agreement provides that, prior to April 1, 2009, the government of Macau will grant no more than three concessions for the operation of casinos in Macau. If, after April 1, 2009, the government permits more than three concessions for the operation of casinos in Macau, and any of the concessions provide terms which are more favorable overall than those provided by Wynn Macau's concession agreement, the government must extend those more favorable terms to Wynn Macau.

        Wynn Macau must pay a fixed premium of 30 million patacas (currently approximately US $3.8 million) per year, and a variable premium based on the number of table games and machines Wynn Macau operates in Macau, with a set minimum of 45 million patacas (currently approximately US $5.6 million) per year (which is temporarily lowered if Wynn Macau operates a temporary casino before completion of its first permanent casino resort).

        Wynn Macau must pay 35% of its gross gaming revenue to the government as a special gaming tax. In addition, the concession agreement obligates Wynn Macau to pay a total of 4.0% of its gross gaming revenue for the promotion of public interests, infrastructure and tourism.

115


        Macau generally imposes a complementary income tax at the rate of 15% on the profits realized from conducting business in Macau. In addition, Macau imposes a 15% withholding tax rate on dividends paid from Macau entities to their stockholders. Wynn Macau is seeking exemptions from the complementary income tax and the withholding tax on dividends throughout the term of the concession.

        Wynn Macau is obligated to obtain the necessary financing to carry out its investment plan and maintain the financial capacity to adequately operate its gaming business in Macau. In compliance with the concession agreement, Wynn Macau has obtained an uncollateralized bank guarantee from Banco National Ultramarino, S.A. in the required amount of 700 million patacas (currently approximately US $87.5 million) for the period from the execution of the concession agreement until March 31, 2007. The amount of this required guarantee will be reduced to 300 million patacas (currently approximately US $37.5 million) for the period from April 1, 2007 until 180 days after the end of the term of the concession agreement. This bank guarantee is also intended to satisfy the requirement imposed by Macau law that a controlling stockholder of Wynn Macau obtain a bank guarantee for the benefit of the government of Macau. The purpose of this bank guarantee is to guarantee Wynn Macau's:

        The concession agreement permits the government of Macau to withdraw amounts from the bank guarantee without prior adjudication. Wynn Macau is obligated to reimburse the bank and reinstate the guarantee in full if any amounts are withdrawn for payment of its obligations. Wynn Macau may not cancel the bank guarantee without government approval, but the government may allow Wynn Macau to substitute a bond or other contract for the guarantee. Wynn Macau must bear any costs incurred for the issuance, maintenance and cancellation of any such bank guarantee, bond or contract. In connection with the commencement of construction, or otherwise, Wynn Macau may be required to obtain a replacement guarantee or bond and/or modify the existing bank guarantee in a manner that requires it to provide certain security or other financial commitments.

        The concession agreement requires that Wynn Macau obtain government authorization before permitting the transfer or encumbrance of, or the grant of voting rights with respect to, the shares of Wynn Macau. Government approval must also be obtained before the transfer of the shares of the direct or indirect corporate stockholders of Wynn Macau representing 5% or more of the equity of Wynn Macau, unless the shares subject to transfer are publicly tradable on a stock exchange. We believe that transfer of the publicly traded shares of Wynn Resorts will not require government approval because they will be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market's National Market; however, any shares which were privately issued would be subject to these transfer restrictions until such time as they become publicly tradable. Accordingly, we believe that the government of Macau would assert that it has the right to approve the transfer of shares of Wynn Resorts by Wynn Resorts' principal stockholders, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA, Inc.

        The concession agreement provides that if a controlling stockholder of Wynn Macau receives written instructions to dispose of its shares by a gaming authority outside of Macau, and if the government of Macau finds that the disposition is not attributable to the actions of Wynn Macau, then that controlling stockholder will be permitted to transfer the shares that it

116



holds without seeking government approval. If the controlling stockholder desires to transfer its shares to a third party, the government of Macau must approve of the transferee.

        From June 27, 2017 until the end of the term of the concession agreement, the government of Macau will have the right to redeem Wynn Macau's gaming concession and take title to all of its assets in Macau, including any hotel-casino-resort, with one year's prior notice. If the government so redeems the concession agreement prior to its expiration, Wynn Macau will be entitled to compensation for the resulting losses it incurs equal to the earnings from the redeemed hotel-casino-resort before interest, depreciation and amortization for the fiscal year immediately preceding the date the redemption is declared, multiplied by the number of years remaining on the term of the concession agreement. Under the concession agreement, the compensation to be provided by the Macau government is for a resort-hotel-casino complex under the investment plan. However, the concession agreement is unclear as to how the compensation provision will apply if there is more than one resort-hotel-casino built.

        At the end of the term of the concession agreement and any agreed upon extensions, the areas defined as casino under Macau law and all the gaming equipment owned by Wynn Macau, but not any hotel or resort assets (other than areas defined as casino under Macau law), will be automatically transferred to the government of Macau without compensation to Wynn Macau.

        The concession agreement prohibits Wynn Macau from ceding, transferring, alienating or in any way burdening the concession in whole or in part without the approval of the government of Macau. The concession agreement also prohibits Wynn Macau from granting, without government approval, a sub-concession to conduct gaming in Macau.

        The concession agreement provides that, if Wynn Macau ceases operation of its gaming business without justification or government approval, or if the government finds that the operation of the Macau casino(s) is seriously deficient, the government may seize the gaming business for the duration of the cessation or deficiency, and appoint an operator to continue the business.

        The government of Macau may unilaterally rescind the concession if Wynn Macau fails to fulfill its fundamental obligations under the concession agreement. If the government of Macau unilaterally rescinds the concession agreement, Wynn Macau will be required to compensate the government in accordance with applicable law, and its main casino(s) and gaming equipment will be transferred to the government without compensation.

117




REGULATION AND LICENSING

        The gaming industry is highly regulated. Gaming registrations, licenses and approvals, once obtained, can be suspended or revoked for a variety of reasons. We cannot assure you that we will obtain all required registrations, licenses and approvals on a timely basis or at all, or that, once obtained, the registrations, findings of suitability licenses and approvals will not be suspended, conditioned, limited or revoked. See "Risk Factors—General Risks Associated with Our Business—Le Rêve will be subject to extensive state and local regulation, and licensing and gaming authorities have significant control over our operations, which could have a negative effect on our business." If we ever are prohibited from operating one of our gaming facilities, we would, to the extent permitted by law, seek to recover our investment by selling the property affected, but we cannot assure you that we would recover its full value.

Nevada

        The ownership and operation of casino gaming facilities in the State of Nevada are subject to the Nevada Gaming Control Act and the regulations made under the Act, as well as to various local ordinances. Once the resort is open, Le Rêve's operations, will be subject to the licensing and regulatory control of the Nevada Gaming Commission, the Nevada State Gaming Control Board and the Clark County Liquor and Gaming License Board, which we refer to collectively as the Nevada Gaming Authorities.

        The laws, regulations and supervisory procedures of the Nevada Gaming Authorities are based upon declarations of public policy. These public policy concerns include, among other things:

Changes in these laws, regulations and procedures could have significant negative effects on Le Rêve's proposed gaming operations and our financial condition and results of operations.

        Before Le Rêve opens, Wynn Las Vegas, as the owner, operator and manager of Le Rêve, will be required to seek approval from, and be licensed by, the Nevada Gaming Authorities as a limited liability company licensee, referred to as a company licensee. If we are granted a gaming license, we will have to pay periodic fees and taxes. The gaming license will not be transferable. We cannot assure you that Wynn Las Vegas will be able to obtain approval and license from the Nevada Gaming Authorities on a timely basis or at all.

118


        Before Le Rêve opens, Wynn Resorts will be required to apply to, and be found suitable by, the Nevada Gaming Commission to own the equity interests of Valvino and to be registered by the Nevada Gaming Commission as a publicly traded corporation, referred to as a registered company, for the purposes of the Nevada Gaming Control Act. Valvino will be required to apply to, and be found suitable by, the Nevada Gaming Commission to own the equity interests of Wynn Golf Course and to be registered by the Nevada Gaming Commission as an intermediary company. Wynn Golf Course will also be required to apply to, and be found suitable by, the Nevada Gaming Commission to own the equity interests of Wynn Las Vegas and to be registered by the Nevada Gaming Commission as an intermediary company. Wynn Las Vegas, as an issuer of the second mortgage notes, will also qualify as a registered company and, in addition to being licensed, will be required to be registered by the Nevada Gaming Commission as a registered company. Wynn Capital will not be required to be registered or licensed, but may be required to be found suitable as a lender or financing source. We cannot assure you that the approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities will be obtained on a timely basis or at all.

        Periodically, we will be required to submit detailed financial and operating reports to the Nevada Gaming Commission and provide any other information that the Nevada Gaming Commission may require. Substantially all of our material loans, leases, sales of securities and similar financing transactions must be reported to, or approved by, the Nevada Gaming Commission.

        No person may become a stockholder or member of, or receive any percentage of the profits of, an intermediary company or company licensee without first obtaining licenses and approvals from the Nevada Gaming Authorities. The Nevada Gaming Authorities may investigate any individual who has a material relationship to, or material involvement with, us to determine whether the individual is suitable or should be licensed as a business associate of a gaming licensee. We and our officers, directors and certain key employees will be required to file applications with the Nevada Gaming Authorities and may be required to be licensed or found suitable by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. The Nevada Gaming Authorities may deny an application for licensing for any cause which they deem reasonable. A finding of suitability is comparable to licensing, and both require submission of detailed personal and financial information followed by a thorough investigation. An applicant for licensing or an applicant for a finding of suitability must pay for all the costs of the investigation. Changes in licensed positions must be reported to the Nevada Gaming Authorities and, in addition to their authority to deny an application for a finding of suitability or licensing, the Nevada Gaming Authorities have the jurisdiction to disapprove a change in a corporate position.

        If the Nevada Gaming Authorities were to find an officer, director or key employee unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue having a relationship with us, we would have to sever all relationships with that person. In addition, the Nevada Gaming Commission may require us to terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file appropriate applications. Determinations of suitability or questions pertaining to licensing are not subject to judicial review in Nevada.

        Wynn Resorts' articles of incorporation will provide that, to the extent a gaming authority makes a determination of unsuitability or to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by the

119


board of directors, Wynn Resorts may redeem shares of its capital stock that are owned or controlled by an unsuitable person or its affiliates. The redemption price will be the amount, if any, required by the gaming authority or, if the gaming authority does not determine the price, the sum deemed by the board of directors to be the fair value of the securities to be redeemed. If Wynn Resorts determines the redemption price, the redemption price will be capped at the closing price of the shares on the principal national securities exchange on which the shares are listed on the trading date on the day before the redemption notice is given. If the shares are not listed on a national securities exchange, the redemption price will be capped at the closing sale price of the shares as quoted on The Nasdaq National Market or SmallCap Market, or if the closing price is not reported, the mean between the bid and asked prices, as quoted by any other generally recognized reporting system. The redemption price may be paid in cash, by promissory note, or both, as required, and pursuant to the terms established by, the applicable gaming authority and, if not, as Wynn Resorts elects.

        Aruze USA, which, immediately before the closing of Wynn Resorts' common stock offering, will own approximately 47.4% of Wynn Resorts' common stock, also will be required to apply to, and be licensed or found suitable by, the Nevada Gaming Commission and be registered as a holding company of Wynn Resorts prior to the opening of Le Rêve. Kazuo Okada is the owner of a controlling interest in Aruze Corp., the parent company of Aruze USA, and will also be required to be licensed or found suitable. Aruze Corp. will qualify as a publicly traded corporation under the terms of the Nevada Gaming Control Act and will be required to apply to, and be registered by, the Nevada Gaming Commission as a registered company and to be found suitable to own the stock of Aruze USA. Any beneficial owner of more than 10% of Aruze Corp.'s voting securities must also be licensed or found suitable, including Kazuo Okada and his son, Tomohiro Okada. Kazuo Okada is currently licensed by the Nevada Gaming Commission to own the shares of Universal Distributing of Nevada, Inc., a gaming machine manufacturer and distributor. Kazuo Okada and Tomohiro Okada previously sought approval from the Nevada Gaming Commission in connection with the proposed transfer of Universal Distributing to Aruze Corp. In connection with this application, the Nevada State Gaming Control Board raised certain concerns, including transactions which were then the subject of a pending tax case in Japan which involved Universal Distributing, Aruze Corp. and other related parties. The pursuit of this proposed transfer of Universal Distributing was deferred pending resolution of the Japanese tax case. The lower court in the Japanese tax case ruled in Aruze Corp.'s favor, but the Japanese tax authority has filed an appeal. It is unclear whether or how these events will affect the Nevada Gaming Commission's consideration of suitability with respect to Aruze USA's ownership of Wynn Resorts' stock.

        Aruze Corp. has informed us that there are a number of outstanding issues in the investigation of the proposed transfer of Universal Distributing including issues relating to the transactions involved in the above-described tax proceeding. These issues, if not satisfactorily resolved, could result in the denial of the application. No formal action of any kind has been taken by the Nevada State Gaming Control Board or the Nevada Gaming Commission in connection with these issues. If either of these bodies was to act adversely with respect to the pending proceeding involving Universal Distributing, that decision could adversely affect an application filed by Aruze USA, Aruze Corp., Kazuo Okada or Tomohiro Okada in respect of Wynn Resorts.

        In addition to Wynn Resorts' redemption rights under its articles of incorporation, Mr. Wynn, Kazuo Okada, Aruze USA, Aruze Corp. and Wynn Resorts have entered into arrangements which provide that if any gaming application of Aruze USA, Aruze Corp. or Kazuo Okada concerning Aruze USA's ownership of Wynn Resorts' stock is denied by Nevada

120



gaming authorities or requested to be withdrawn or is not filed within 90 days after the filing of Wynn Resorts' application, Mr. Wynn may elect to purchase the shares owned by Aruze USA in Wynn Resorts. Mr. Wynn may pay this purchase price with a promissory note. If Mr. Wynn chooses not to exercise his right to purchase the shares, Wynn Resorts has the right to require him to purchase the shares, including with a promissory note. The prior buy-out arrangements under the Valvino operating agreement and under the stockholders agreement between Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA and Baron Asset Fund were terminated upon the effectiveness of the new agreement. See "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Buy-Out of Aruze USA Stock."

        As described above, if Wynn Resorts, pursuant to its articles of incorporation, or Mr. Wynn, pursuant to the buy-out agreement described above, purchases the shares of Wynn Resorts' stock held by an unsuitable person or its affiliate, including Aruze USA, Wynn Resorts and/or Mr. Wynn may, in lieu of immediate payment of the purchase price, issue a promissory note. However, if the Nevada Gaming Commission were to find the unsuitable person or its affiliate unsuitable to own the voting securities of Wynn Resorts, it could also determine that the person is unsuitable to hold a promissory note for the purchase of such voting securities by Wynn Resorts or Mr. Wynn, and could determine not to approve the issuance of the promissory note to the unsuitable person or its affiliate. In such event, the Nevada Gaming Commission could order the unsuitable person or its affiliate to dispose of its voting securities within a prescribed period of time that may or may not be a sufficient period of time to dispose of the securities in an orderly manner. Depending upon the period of time for disposition required by the Nevada Gaming Commission, this could have a negative effect on the price of the stock of Wynn Resorts. In the event that the unsuitable person or its affiliate is unable or fails to dispose of its voting securities within the prescribed period of time, or if Wynn Resorts fails to pursue all lawful efforts to require the unsuitable person or its affiliate to relinquish its voting securities, including, if necessary, the immediate purchase of the voting securities for cash at fair market value, the Nevada Gaming Commission could determine that Wynn Resorts was unsuitable or could take disciplinary action against Wynn Resorts. Disciplinary action could result in the limitation, conditioning, suspension or revocation of any approvals or gaming licenses held by Wynn Resorts and/or the imposition of a significant monetary fine against Wynn Resorts. Any such disciplinary action could significantly impair our operations.

        If the Nevada Gaming Commission decides that we violated the Nevada Gaming Control Act or any of its regulations, it could limit, condition, suspend or revoke the registrations and findings of suitability of Wynn Resorts, Valvino and Wynn Resorts Holdings, and the registration and gaming license of Wynn Las Vegas. In addition, Wynn Resorts, Valvino, Wynn Golf Course, Wynn Las Vegas and the persons involved could be subject to substantial fines for each separate violation of the Nevada Gaming Control Act, or of the regulations of the Nevada Gaming Commission, at the discretion of the Nevada Gaming Commission. Further, the Nevada Gaming Commission could appoint a supervisor to operate Le Rêve and, under specified circumstances, earnings generated during the supervisor's appointment (except for the reasonable rental value of the premises) could be forfeited to the State of Nevada. Limitation, conditioning or suspension of any of our gaming licenses and the appointment of a supervisor could, and revocation of any gaming license would, have a significant negative effect on our gaming operations.

121


        Regardless of the number of shares held, any beneficial holder of Wynn Resorts' voting securities, may be required to file an application, be investigated and have that person's suitability as a beneficial holder of voting securities determined if the Nevada Gaming Commission has reason to believe that the ownership would otherwise be inconsistent with the declared policies of the State of Nevada. If the beneficial holder of the voting securities of Wynn Resorts who must be found suitable is a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company or trust, it must submit detailed business and financial information including a list of beneficial owners. The applicant must pay all costs of the investigation incurred by the Nevada Gaming Authorities in conducting any investigation.

        The Nevada Gaming Control Act requires any person who acquires more than 5% of the voting securities of a registered company to report the acquisition to the Nevada Gaming Commission. The Nevada Gaming Control Act requires beneficial owners of more than 10% of a registered company's voting securities to apply to the Nevada Gaming Commission for a finding of suitability within 30 days after the Chairman of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board mails the written notice requiring such filing. Under certain circumstances, an "institutional investor," as defined in the Nevada Gaming Control Act, which acquires more than 10%, but not more than 15%, of the registered company's voting securities may apply to the Nevada Gaming Commission for a waiver of a finding of suitability if the institutional investor holds the voting securities for investment purposes only. An institutional investor will not be deemed to hold voting securities for investment purposes unless the voting securities were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business as an institutional investor and not for the purpose of causing, directly or indirectly, the election of a majority of the members of the board at directors of the registered company, a change in the registered company's corporate charter, bylaws, management, policies or operations of the registered company, or any of its gaming affiliates, or any other action which the Nevada Gaming Commission finds to be inconsistent with holding Wynn Resorts' voting securities for investment purposes only. Activities which are not deemed to be inconsistent with holding voting securities for investment purposes only include:

        The articles of incorporation of Wynn Resorts will include provisions intended to help it implement the above restrictions.

        Any person who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a license within 30 days after being ordered to do so by the Nevada Gaming Commission or by the Chairman of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board, or who refuses or fails to pay the investigative costs incurred by the Nevada Gaming Authorities in connection with the investigation of its application, may be found unsuitable. The same restrictions apply to a record owner if the record owner, after request, fails to identify the beneficial owner. Any person found unsuitable and who holds, directly or indirectly, any beneficial ownership of any voting security or debt security of a registered company beyond the period of time as may be prescribed by the

122


Nevada Gaming Commission may be guilty of a criminal offense. Wynn Resorts will be subject to disciplinary action if, after it receives notice that a person is unsuitable to hold an equity interest or to have any other relationship with, it:

        In addition, the Clark County Liquor and Gaming License Board has the authority to approve all persons owning or controlling the stock of any corporation controlling a gaming license.

        The Nevada Gaming Commission may, in its discretion, require the holder of any debt or similar securities of a registered company, such as the second mortgage notes, to file applications, be investigated and be found suitable to own the debt or other security of the registered company if the Nevada Gaming Commission has reason to believe that such ownership would otherwise be inconsistent with the declared policies of the State of Nevada. If the Nevada Gaming Commission decides that a person is unsuitable to own the security, then under the Nevada Gaming Control Act, the registered company can be sanctioned, including the loss of its approvals, if without the prior approval of the Nevada Gaming Commission, it:

        Wynn Resorts will be required to maintain a current stock ledger in Nevada which may be examined by the Nevada Gaming Authorities at any time. If any securities are held in trust by an agent or by a nominee, the record holder may be required to disclose the identity of the beneficial owner to the Nevada Gaming Authorities. A failure to make the disclosure may be grounds for finding the record holder unsuitable. Wynn Resorts will be required to render maximum assistance in determining the identity of the beneficial owner of any of Wynn Resorts' voting securities. The Nevada Gaming Commission has the power to require the stock certificates of any registered company to bear a legend indicating that the securities are subject to the Nevada Gaming Control Act. We do not know whether this requirement will be imposed on Wynn Resorts.

        Once Wynn Resorts and Wynn Las Vegas become registered companies, they may not make a public offering of their securities without the prior approval of the Nevada Gaming

123


Commission if they intend to use the securities or the proceeds from the offering to construct, acquire or finance gaming facilities in Nevada, or to retire or extend obligations incurred for those purposes or for similar transactions. Any approval that Wynn Resorts or Wynn Las Vegas might receive in the future relating to the offering of common stock, the offering of the second mortgage notes or future offerings does not constitute a finding, recommendation or approval by any of the Nevada Gaming Authorities as to the accuracy or adequacy of the offering memorandum or the investment merits of the securities. Any representation to the contrary is unlawful.

        The regulations of the Nevada Gaming Commission also provide that any entity which is not an "affiliated company," as that term is defined in the Nevada Gaming Control Act, or which is not otherwise subject to the provisions of the Nevada Gaming Control Act or regulations, such as Wynn Resorts and Wynn Las Vegas, that plans to make a public offering of securities intending to use such securities, or the proceeds from the sale thereof, for the construction or operation of gaming facilities in Nevada, or to retire or extend obligations incurred for such purposes, may apply to the Nevada Gaming Commission for prior approval of such offering. The Nevada Gaming Commission may find an applicant unsuitable based solely on the fact that it did not submit such an application, unless upon a written request for a ruling, referred to as a ruling request, the Nevada State Gaming Control Board Chairman has ruled that it is not necessary to submit an application. The offering of second mortgage notes pursuant to this prospectus and the offering of common stock by Wynn Resorts each will qualify as a public offering. Wynn Resorts and Wynn Las Vegas have filed a ruling request with the Nevada State Gaming Control Board Chairman for a ruling that it is not necessary to submit the offering of common stock by Wynn Resorts or this offering for prior approval. We cannot assure you that the ruling request will be granted or that it will be considered on a timely basis. If the ruling request is not granted, Wynn Resorts and Wynn Las Vegas will promptly file an application requesting approval of this offering and the offering of common stock. If the ruling request is not granted, this offering and the offering of common stock could be significantly delayed while we seek approval of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board and Nevada Gaming Commission. We cannot assure you that approval of this offering or the offering of common stock, if required, will be granted or if granted, will be granted on a timely basis.

        The pledge of the equity interests in Wynn Golf Course and Wynn Las Vegas, referred to as the pledge, and the guarantees in respect of the second mortgage notes will require the prior approval of the Nevada Gaming Commission, upon the recommendation of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board, in order to remain effective at such time as Wynn Resorts becomes a registered company. The restrictions on the transfer of, and agreement not to encumber the equity interests of, Wynn Golf Course, referred to as a negative pledge, will also require approval of the Nevada Gaming Commission, upon the recommendation of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board, in order to remain effective at such time as Wynn Resorts becomes a registered company. An approval of the pledge by the Nevada Gaming Commission will not constitute approval to foreclose on the pledge. Separate approval would be required to foreclose on the pledge and transfer ownership of the equity interests and that approval would require the licensing of the trustee under the indenture or other secured party, unless such licensing is waived on application of such secured party. No assurance can be given that the pledge, negative pledge or guarantees will be approved, or that if approved, approval to foreclose on the pledge would be granted, or that the trustee under the indenture would be licensed or receive a waiver of licensing requirements. Foreclosure of the lien on collateral consisting of gaming devices in respect of the second mortgage notes and the taking of possession of those gaming devices may required the prior licensing of the trustee as a distributor by the Nevada Gaming Commission. However, the Nevada Gaming Control

124



Act provides that in the case of foreclosure of a lien by a person holding a security interest for which gaming devices are security in whole or in part, the Nevada State Gaming Control Board may authorize the disposition of the gaming devices without requiring a distributor's license. No assurance can be given that the Nevada State Gaming Control Board would grant such approval or that if such approval were not granted, the trustee would be granted a license as a distributor.

        Once Wynn Resorts and Wynn Las Vegas become registered companies, they must obtain prior approval of the Nevada Gaming Commission with respect to a change in control through:

        Entities seeking to acquire control of a registered company must satisfy the Nevada State Gaming Control Board and Nevada Gaming Commission with respect to a variety of stringent standards before assuming control of the registered company. The Nevada Gaming Commission may also require controlling stockholders, officers, directors and other persons having a material relationship or involvement with the entity proposing to acquire control to be investigated and licensed as part of the approval process relating to the transaction.

        The Nevada legislature has declared that some corporate acquisitions opposed by management, repurchase of voting securities and corporate defense tactics affecting Nevada gaming licenses, and registered companies that are affiliated with those operations, may be harmful to stable and productive corporate gaming. The Nevada Gaming Commission has established a regulatory scheme to reduce the potentially adverse effects of these business practices upon Nevada's gaming industry and to further Nevada's policy to:

        Once Wynn Resorts and Wynn Las Vegas become a registered company, approvals may be required from the Nevada Gaming Commission before they can make exceptional repurchases of voting securities above their current market price and before a corporate acquisition opposed by management can be consummated. The Nevada Gaming Control Act also requires prior approval of a plan of recapitalization proposed by a registered company's board of directors in response to a tender offer made directly to its stockholders for the purpose of acquiring control.

        License fees and taxes, computed in various ways depending on the type of gaming or activity involved, are payable to the State of Nevada and to the counties and cities in which

125


the licensed subsidiaries respective operations are conducted. Depending upon the particular fee or tax involved, these fees and taxes are payable either monthly, quarterly or annually and are based upon either:


        A casino entertainment tax is also paid by casino operations where entertainment is furnished in connection with the selling or serving of food or refreshments or the selling of merchandise.

        Any person who is licensed, required to be licensed, registered, required to be registered, or is under common control with those persons (collectively, "licensees"), and who proposes to become involved in a gaming venture outside of Nevada, is required to deposit with the Nevada State Gaming Control Board, and thereafter maintain, a revolving fund in the amount of $10,000 to pay the expenses of investigation of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board of the licensee's or registrant's participation in such foreign gaming. The revolving fund is subject to increase or decrease in the discretion of the Nevada Gaming Commission. Licensees and registrants are required to comply with the reporting requirements imposed by the Nevada Gaming Control Act. A licensee or registrant is also subject to disciplinary action by the Nevada Gaming Commission if it:


        The sale of alcoholic beverages at Le Rêve will be subject to licensing, control and regulation by the Clark County Liquor and Gaming Licensing Board. All licenses are revocable and are not transferable. The county agency has full power to limit, condition, suspend or revoke any license. Any disciplinary action could, and revocation would, have a substantial negative impact upon our operations.

401(k) Plan

        We established a retirement savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code covering our non-union employees on July 27, 2000. The plan allows employees to defer, within certain limits, up to 18% of their income on a pre-tax basis through contributions to this plan. We match the contributions, within prescribed limits, with an amount equal to 100% of the participant's initial 2% tax deferred contribution and 50% of the tax deferred contribution between 2% and 4% of the participant's compensation.

Wynn Resorts 2002 Stock Incentive Plan

        Wynn Resorts intends to adopt its 2002 stock incentive plan before the closing of this offering. The 2002 stock incentive plan provides for the grant of stock awards, incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to our employees, directors and specified consultants. Wynn Resorts intends to reserve a total of 8,600,000 shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock

131



for issuance pursuant to the 2002 stock incentive plan, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the 2002 stock incentive plan.

        Wynn Resorts' board of directors intends to delegate general administrative authority over the 2002 stock incentive plan to its compensation committee. The members of the compensation committee will be both "non-employee directors" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and "outside directors" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The administrator has broad authority to designate recipients of awards and determine the terms and provisions of awards, including the price, expiration date, vesting schedule and terms of exercise.

        The exercise price of incentive stock options must be at least 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Incentive stock options granted to optionees who own more than 10% of Wynn Resorts' outstanding common stock must have an exercise price that is at least 110% of fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. The incentive options will expire no later than ten years from the date of grant, or five years with respect to incentive stock options granted to optionees who own more than 10% of our outstanding common stock. The exercise price of non-qualified stock options and the purchase price of stock awards will be determined by the administrator. The 2002 stock incentive plan generally will not allow for the transfer of options. However, the administrator may provide that non-qualified stock options may be transferred (1) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or (2) to a family member. During any fiscal year, no optionee may receive grants of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options in the aggregate which cover more than            shares.

        After the termination of the employment or services of an optionee for reasons other than for cause, death or disability, exercisable options generally will remain exercisable until the earlier of their expiration as set forth in the option agreement or 90 days after the date of termination of employment. If termination is due to death or disability, exercisable options generally will remain exercisable until the earlier of the expiration date stated in the option agreement or 12 months after the date of death or termination of employment. If termination is for cause, all options, including vested and exercisable ones, are immediately terminated and cancelled.

        If certain events occur that result in a change of Wynn Resorts' organizational or ownership structure, the administrator has the discretion to do one or more of the following:

        Wynn Resorts has the authority to amend, alter, suspend or terminate the 2002 stock incentive plan without stockholder approval provided that its doing so does not impair the rights of any optionee or increase the number of shares for which options and stock awards may be granted. Wynn Resorts may amend the plan with stockholder approval to increase the number of shares for which options and stock awards may be granted.

132



        Following the completion of this offering and the offering of Wynn Resorts' common stock, Wynn Resorts intends to grant awards of                          shares of restricted stock under its 2002 stock incentive plan to each of the following employees: DeRuyter O. Butler, William Todd Nisbet, Marc D. Schorr, John Strzemp, Roger P. Thomas and Kenneth R. Wynn. Wynn Resorts also intends to grant an award of                          shares of restricted stock outside of the 2002 stock incentive plan to Franco Dragone, the creator of our new entertainment production. The restricted stock will be subject to Wynn Resorts' repurchase right, which will lapse in November 2004 as to Mr. Strzemp, in June 2005 as to Mr. Schorr and Mr. Kenneth Wynn, in June 2006 as to Mr. Butler, Mr. Thomas and Mr. Dragone and in July 2006 as to Mr. Nisbet. Our repurchase right will lapse immediately with respect to any individual other than Mr. Dragone if such individual terminates employment with us under circumstances which entitle him to receive a "separation payment" under his employment contract (as described below). In the case of Messrs. Butler, Nisbet, and Thomas, however, the lapse of our restriction right on a termination of employment which entitles such individual to receive a separation payment will not occur to the extent that such early lapsing would subject the individual to the golden parachute excise tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 4999.

Employment Agreements

        We intend to enter into employment contracts with certain other named executive officers, including Stephen A. Wynn, Marc D. Schorr, Kenneth R. Wynn, John Strzemp, DeRuyter O. Butler and Marc H. Rubinstein, prior to the completion of this offering.

        Under the employment contracts, the annual base salaries will be $1,250,000 for Stephen A. Wynn, $750,000 for Mr. Schorr, $459,000 for Mr. Strzemp, $350,000 for Mr. Butler, $360,000 for Mr. Rubinstein, and $250,000 for Kenneth Wynn.

        The other terms of the employment contracts will be substantially similar for each executive. Each executive will receive a bonus at such times and in such amounts as our board of directors, in its sole and exclusive discretion, may determine, but, after our board of directors adopts a performance-based bonus plan, bonuses will be determined in accordance with the performance-based plan. Mr. Strzemp, however, will be entitled to a minimum annual bonus of $150,000 per year. The term of each employment contract will begin on the later of the effective date of this offering or October 1, 2002, and end five year later, except that the term of Mr. Strzemp's employment contract will end on October 31, 2004. The employment contracts will become null and void if this offering does not close on or before April 1, 2003. In addition to base salary and bonuses, each executive will participate in all our employee benefit plans that cover executives, to the extent that the executive is otherwise eligible, will receive reimbursement for reasonable business expenses (including entertainment, promotional, gift and travel expenses and club memberships), and will be entitled to four weeks paid vacation each year. In addition, we will provide the use of a company car and driver at our sole cost and expense to Stephen Wynn, and Stephen Wynn, Mr. Schorr and Kenneth Wynn will enter into time-sharing agreements with us covering their personal use of our aircraft, with each such executive paying us the lesser of his and his family's share of the direct costs incurred by us in operating the aircraft or the amount permitted by applicable federal aviation regulations.

        If we terminate the employment of an executive without "cause," or the executive terminates his employment with us upon "good reason" following a "change of control" (as such terms are defined in the employment contracts), we will pay the executive a "separation payment" in a lump such equal to (a) the executive's base salary for the remainder of the term of the employment contract, but not for less than one year, except in the case of: Kenneth Wynn and Messrs. Butler, and Rubinstein, in which case the lump sum shall be

133



such person's base salary for one year, (b) a prorated portion of the bonus that the executive received for the preceding bonus period, (c) any accrued but unpaid vacation pay, and (d) an amount necessary to gross the executive up for any golden parachute excise tax the executive incurs under the Internal Revenue Code Section 4999. The separation payment of Mr. Butler, however, will be limited to the amount necessary to avoid subjecting him to the golden parachute excise tax of Internal Revenue Code Section 4999. If the executive is entitled to receive the separation payment, he will also be entitled to continue participating in our health benefits coverage for the remaining portion of the term (but for not less than one year) on the same basis as if he were still employed by us. If the executive's employment terminates for any other reason before the expiration of the term (i.e., because of the executive's death, disability, discharge for cause, revocation of gaming license, or quitting other than for good reason after a change in control), we will be required to pay the executive only accrued but unpaid base salary and vacation pay through his termination date.

        On April 1, 2002, Wynn Golf Course and Valvino, as guarantor, entered into a one-year employment agreement with Mr. Ronald J. Kramer. Pursuant to this agreement, Mr. Kramer is entitled to a base salary of $1,000,000 per year. Mr. Kramer is also entitled to a bonus of at least $1,250,000 based on specified performance criteria. Pursuant to this agreement, Mr. Kramer is also entitled to participate in all welfare, pension and incentive benefit plans that Wynn Golf Course maintains for its senior executives. If at any time during the term of his agreement (1) Wynn Golf Course terminates Mr. Kramer's employment without cause (as defined in the agreement) or (2) Mr. Kramer terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in such agreement), Wynn Golf Course must pay Mr. Kramer (in addition to all accrued base salary, accrued vacation pay and bonus amounts) $1,250,000, unless Mr. Kramer has already been paid a bonus equal to at least that amount from the proceeds of Wynn Resorts' common stock offering. Pursuant to this agreement, Mr. Kramer is also prevented from competing with Wynn Resorts Holdings and its affiliates for the one year of his employment.

Limitations on Directors' Liability and Indemnification

        Wynn Resorts' articles of incorporation limit the liability of directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law. With a few limited exceptions set forth in the Nevada Revised Statutes, Nevada law provides that a director or officer of a corporation is not individually liable to the corporation or its stockholders for damages resulting from any action or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that:

        This limitation of liability does not apply to liabilities arising under the federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

        Wynn Resorts' bylaws provide that it will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, provided that the director or officer either is not liable for monetary damages under Nevada law or acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any proceeding that is criminal in nature, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Wynn Resorts' articles of incorporation and bylaws require it to pay the expenses of directors and officers incurred in defending a proceeding involving alleged acts or omissions of the director or officer in his or her capacity as such as the

134



expenses are incurred and in advance of the final disposition upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified. The bylaws permit the board of directors to indemnify employees and other persons to the same extent. We believe indemnification under Wynn Resorts' bylaws covers at least negligence and gross negligence on the part of indemnified parties. Except as ordered by a court and for advancement of expenses, a director or officer may not be indemnified if a final adjudication determines that his or her acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and was material to the current action. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, does not, of itself, under the bylaws create a presumption that the standards described above were not met. However, Wynn Resorts is not permitted by its bylaws to indemnify a director or officer if he or she has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals, to be liable to Wynn Resorts unless that court or another court of competent jurisdiction determines that in view of all of the circumstances, the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification.

        In addition to indemnification provided for in Wynn Resorts' bylaws, Wynn Resorts intends to enter into agreements to indemnify its directors and executive officers. These agreements, among other things, will provide for indemnification of Wynn Resorts' directors and executive officers for expenses, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding arising out of such person's services as a director or executive officer or at its request. Wynn Resorts may also maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent. We believe these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers.

        The limited liability and indemnification provisions in Wynn Resorts' articles of incorporation and bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against its directors for breach of their fiduciary duties and may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against its directors and officers, even though a derivative litigation, if successful, might otherwise benefit Wynn Resorts and its stockholders. A stockholder's investment in Wynn Resorts may be negatively affected to the extent that it pays the costs of settlement or damage awards against its directors or officers under these indemnification provisions.

        At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of Wynn Resorts' directors, officers or employees in which indemnification is sought, nor are we aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.

        We have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification of directors or officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is against public policy and, therefore, such indemnification provisions may be unenforceable.

Key Man Life Insurance

        We intend to obtain $30 million of key man life insurance with respect to Stephen A. Wynn for our benefit.

Directors' and Officers' Insurance

        Wynn Resorts expects to maintain a directors' and officers' liability insurance policy that provides its officers and directors with liability coverage in amounts it considers appropriate.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

        Contribution of Interest in Wynn Macau.    Before April 22, 2002, Mr. Wynn owned a majority of the outstanding equity interests of Wynn Macau. At the time, Wynn Macau had been awarded a provisional concession to negotiate a concession agreement with the Macau government to construct and operate one or more casinos in Macau. On April 22, 2002, in connection with additional contributions to Valvino by Aruze USA and Baron Asset Fund, Mr. Wynn contributed his interest in Wynn Macau to Valvino. This interest was valued at approximately $56 million, after reimbursement to Mr. Wynn of approximately $825,000 advanced by him to Wynn Macau in connection with the negotiation of the concession agreement and other development activities in Macau. Similar advances by Valvino to Wynn Macau of approximately $458,000 were treated as capital contributions by Valvino upon its acquisition of the Macau interest. Subsequent to this contribution, Wynn Macau has entered into a concession agreement with the government of Macau permitting the construction and operation of casinos in Macau. See "Management's Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Material Transactions Affecting Liquidity and Capital Resources."

        Stockholders Agreement.    As previously discussed, Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA and Baron Asset Fund are parties to a stockholders agreement. The stockholders agreement establishes various rights among Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA and Baron Asset Fund with respect to the ownership and management of Wynn Resorts. These rights include, but are not limited to, the following preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, tag-along rights and certain other restrictions on the transfer of the shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock owned by the parties to the stockholders agreement.

        Under the stockholders agreement, if Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA or Baron Asset Fund purchase shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock from Wynn Resorts in a private placement on terms and conditions that are not offered to the other parties to the agreement, the purchasing stockholder must afford the other parties preemptive rights. These preemptive rights will allow the non-purchasing parties to purchase that number of shares in the purchasing stockholder's allotment of private placement shares that is necessary to maintain the parties' shares in the same proportion to each other that existed prior to such private placement.

        In addition, under the stockholders agreement, the parties granted each other a right of first refusal on their respective shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock. Under this right of first refusal, if any such stockholder wishes to transfer any of his or its shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock to anyone other than a permitted transferee, and has a bona fide offer from any person to purchase such shares, the stockholder must first offer the shares to the other parties to the stockholders agreement on the same terms and conditions as the bona fide offer. In addition to this right of first refusal, the parties also granted each other a tag-along right on their respective shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock. Under this tag-along right, any party to the stockholders agreement, before transferring his or its shares to any person other than a permitted transferee, must first allow the other parties to the agreement to participate in such transfer on the same terms and conditions.

        The stockholders agreement also provides that, upon the institution of a bankruptcy action by or against a party to the stockholders agreement, the other parties to the agreement will be given an option to purchase the bankrupt stockholder's shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock at a price to be agreed upon by the bankrupt stockholder and the other stockholders, or, if a price cannot be agreed upon by such stockholders, at a price equal to their fair market value. In addition, under the stockholders agreement, if there is a direct or

136


indirect change of control of any party to the agreement, other than Baron Asset Fund, the other parties to the agreement have the option to purchase the shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock held by the party undergoing the change in control. Under the agreement, a stockholder may assign these options to Wynn Resorts.

        In addition, under the stockholders agreement, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA have agreed to vote their shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock for a slate of directors, a majority of which will be designated by Mr. Wynn, of which at least two will be independent directors, and the remaining members of which will be designated by Aruze USA. As a result of this voting arrangement, Mr. Wynn may control Wynn Resorts' board of directors. The stockholders agreement incorporates certain provisions set forth in the operating agreement for Valvino pursuant to which, if Aruze USA's ownership of the shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock impairs Wynn Resort's ability to obtain a gaming license, either Wynn Resorts or Mr. Wynn could purchase the shares of Wynn Resorts owned by Aruze USA. In addition, in such circumstances, Aruze USA could demand that Wynn Resorts purchase its shares. These arrangements were terminated under the arrangement described below. In other respects, the stockholders agreement will continue to be in effect after the completion of this offering.

        Buy-Out of Aruze USA Stock.    Mr. Wynn, Kazuo Okada, Aruze USA, Aruze Corp. and Wynn Resorts have entered into arrangements which provide that if any gaming application of Aruze USA, Aruze Corp. or Kazuo Okada concerning Aruze USA's ownership of Wynn Resorts' stock is denied by Nevada gaming authorities or requested to be withdrawn or is not filed within 90 days after the filing of Wynn Resorts' application, Mr. Wynn may elect to purchase the shares owned by Aruze USA in Wynn Resorts. Mr. Wynn may pay this purchase price with a promissory note. If Mr. Wynn chooses not to exercise his right to purchase the shares, Wynn Resorts has the right to require him to purchase the shares, including with a promissory note. The prior buy-out arrangements under the Valvino operating agreement and under the stockholders agreement between Mr. Wynn, Aruze USA and Baron Asset Fund were terminated upon the effectiveness of the new agreement.

        Wynn Design & Development.    Wynn Design & Development, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valvino, is responsible for the design and architecture of Le Rêve (except for the showroom) and for managing construction costs and risks associated with the Le Rêve project. Nevada law requires that a firm licensed as a professional architectural organization certify architectural plans. These architectural services for the Le Rêve project will be provided by the firm of Butler/Ashworth Architects, Ltd., LLC. In return for these services, the Butler/Ashworth firm will be paid $1.00 and reimbursed for certain expenses it incurs in providing the architectural services. The principals of the Butler/Ashworth firm are DeRuyter Butler and Glen Ashworth, both of whom are employees of Wynn Design & Development. Mr. Butler is Executive Vice President of Wynn Design & Development. Wynn Design & Development is the only client of the Butler/Ashworth firm and pays the salaries and benefits of Messrs. Butler and Ashworth. Neither we nor Mr. Wynn has an ownership interest in Butler/Ashworth.

        Art Gallery.    We operate an art gallery at the former premises of the Desert Inn Resort & Casino in which we display paintings from The Wynn Collection. The art gallery is expected to remain open during the construction of Le Rêve. We lease The Wynn Collection from Mr. and Mrs. Wynn pursuant to an Art Rental and Licensing Agreement. Under the agreement, we pay the expenses of exhibiting works from The Wynn Collection and reimburse Mr. and Mrs. Wynn for the expense of insuring the collection while we exhibit it, which insurance costs for the eight months ended June 30, 2002 were approximately $55,000 and for the twelve months ended June 30, 2003 will be approximately $275,000. In addition, we have agreed to make monthly lease payments for the art at a rate equal to the gross revenue received by the gallery each month, less direct expenses, subject to a monthly cap. Under the

137



agreement, we were not required to make any such lease payments prior to June 30, 2002. However, had we been required to make such payments, no amounts would have been due under the lease payment formula because, to date, our expenses in operating the art gallery have exceeded the revenue generated from such operations. Prior to opening Le Rêve, we do not expect to make any material payments under this lease. The only financial exposure that we have under this lease is the cost of operating the art gallery, which is not material. Any payment to Mr. and Mrs. Wynn would be made only from the net revenue of the art gallery. It is contemplated that, after Le Rêve opens, we will continue to lease The Wynn Collection under similar terms and will exhibit the works as an attraction at Le Rêve. Under the Art Rental and Licensing Agreement, subject to certain notice restrictions, Mr. and Mrs. Wynn will retain the right to remove or replace any or all of the works of art that will be displayed in the art gallery.

        Aircraft Arrangements.    Until January 2002, Valvino used a Gulfstream Aerospace model G-1159A aircraft in its business operations. The aircraft was owned by Kevyn, LLC, which, until April 1, 2001, was wholly owned by Mr. Wynn, and leased to and operated under a Part 135 charter certificate by Las Vegas Jet, LLC, formerly Las Vegas CharterJet, LLC, a charter business owned by Mr. Wynn. Valvino paid Las Vegas Jet an hourly rate for its use of the aircraft and disbursed funds for payroll, property taxes, insurance and all other operating expenses on behalf of Las Vegas Jet. As of April 1, 2001, and in accordance with Valvino's operating agreement, Mr. Wynn sold Kevyn to Valvino for $10,035,000. Pursuant to Federal Aviation Administration regulations restricting the registration of aircraft in the United States by entities with substantial foreign ownership, Kevyn transferred legal title to the aircraft to First Security Bank, National Association, a national banking association, pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of April 2, 2001. After the transfers, Kevyn continued to lease the aircraft to Las Vegas Jet, and Las Vegas Jet continued to use the aircraft in its charter business. Valvino paid Las Vegas Jet an hourly rate for its use of the aircraft, and was in turn paid by Las Vegas Jet (through Kevyn) under the aircraft lease. Valvino paid Las Vegas Jet approximately $451,800 and $918,900 for its use of the aircraft in 2000 and 2001, respectively, and approximately $13,600 for its use of the aircraft in January 2002. Wynn Macau paid Las Vegas Jet approximately $72,600 for its use of the aircraft in 2001. On March 26, 2002, Kevyn sold the aircraft to an unrelated buyer.

        From January 2002 until May 30, 2002, Valvino used a Bombardier Global Express aircraft, serial number 9065, in its business operations. The aircraft was owned by World Travel and was leased to and operated in a charter business by Las Vegas Jet. Valvino paid Las Vegas Jet an hourly rate of $2,600 per hour for its use of the aircraft. Las Vegas Jet and World Travel were owned entirely by Mr. Wynn.

        On May 30, 2002, Mr. Wynn sold World Travel and Las Vegas Jet to Valvino for approximately $38.2 million, the amount that World Travel paid for the aircraft. Pursuant to Federal Aviation Administration regulations restricting the registration of aircraft in the United States by entities with substantial foreign ownership, World Travel transferred legal title to the aircraft to Wells Fargo Bank North West, National Association, a national banking association, pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of May 10, 2002. At that time, World Travel had remaining indebtedness of $28.5 million secured by the aircraft. Valvino guaranteed this indebtedness in connection with the purchase of the aircraft. Mr. Wynn was released from his guarantee of that indebtedness. Wynn Las Vegas intends to use approximately $28.5 million of the FF&E facility to refinance the indebtedness by means of a loan to be evidenced by an intercompany note from World Travel.

        World Travel continues to lease the aircraft to Las Vegas Jet. Las Vegas Jet operates the aircraft for Wynn Resorts and its subsidiaries under a Part 91 certificate. In connection with

138



the acquisition of World Travel, approximately $2 million of accounts payable to Valvino from Las Vegas Jet were forgiven.

        Reimbursable Costs.    We have periodically incurred costs on Mr. Wynn's behalf, including costs with respect to Mr. Wynn's personal use of the corporate aircraft, household employees at Mr. Wynn's residence, personal legal fees, construction work at Mr. Wynn's home and other personal purchases. Mr. Wynn fully reimburses the company for such personal costs. These balances have been settled at regular intervals, usually monthly. We did not charge Mr. Wynn interest on outstanding amounts pending reimbursement. The largest unreimbursed balance of these items at any time since our inception was approximately $213,000. As of August 12, 2002, Mr. Wynn had reimbursed us for all amounts outstanding, including charges for his use of the corporate jet. We and Mr. Wynn have terminated the arrangements pursuant to which such costs are incurred by us and later reimbursed by Mr. Wynn. Mr. Wynn will deposit a credit balance for such items in the future.

        Tax Overpayment.    In 2001, Mr. Wynn made a substantial overpayment of his personal estimated 2001 federal income taxes to the Internal Revenue Service. Pursuant to a tax procedure set forth in Internal Revenue Service Announcement No. 2001-112, announced October 26, 2001, a taxpayer may redesignate estimated income tax payments as employment tax deposits. In reliance on this announcement, Mr. Wynn applied $5,000,000 of his overpayment to the fourth quarter employment taxes of Valvino. By using this procedure, Mr. Wynn accelerated the refund of his overpayment. In May of 2002, the Internal Revenue Service issued a refund for $5,000,000 to Valvino and Valvino reimbursed this sum of money to Mr. Wynn.

        Tax Indemnification Agreement.    Stephen A. Wynn, Aruze USA, Baron Asset Fund, and the Kenneth R. Wynn Family Trust, referred to collectively as the Valvino members, Valvino and Wynn Resorts intend to enter into a tax indemnification agreement relating to their respective income tax liabilities. Prior to the contribution of the Valvino membership interests to Wynn Resorts, the income and deductions of Valvino passed through to the Valvino members under the rules governing partnerships for federal tax purposes and were taken into account by them at their personal tax rates. Commencing upon the contribution of the Valvino membership interests to Wynn Resorts, income and deductions are to be treated as income and deductions of Wynn Resorts, a C corporation for federal tax purposes, and are to be taken into account by it at applicable corporate tax rates. A reallocation of deductions of Valvino from the period prior to the contribution to the period commencing upon the contribution, or a reallocation of income of Wynn Resorts from the period commencing upon the contribution to the period prior to the contribution, would increase the amount of taxable income (or decrease the amount of loss) reported by the Valvino members and decrease the amount of taxable income (or increase the amount of loss) reported by Wynn Resorts. Accordingly, the tax indemnification agreement generally provides that the Valvino members will be indemnified by Wynn Resorts and its subsidiaries for additional tax costs (including interest and penalties) caused by reallocations that increase the taxable income or decrease the tax loss of the Valvino members for the period prior to the contribution of the Valvino membership interests. Any payment made pursuant to the agreement by Wynn Resorts or any of its subsidiaries to the Valvino members may be non-deductible for income tax purposes.

        Capitalization of Valvino.    For information regarding the formation of Wynn Resorts and capital contributions to Valvino, the predecessor of Wynn Resorts, see "Management's Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Material Transactions Affecting Liquidity and Capital Resources."

OWNERSHIP OF CAPITAL STOCK

        Wynn Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas. Wynn Las Vegas is a Nevada limited liability company, the sole member of which is Wynn Golf Course. Valvino is the sole member of Wynn Golf Course.

As a result, upon consummation of this offering and the offering of Wynn Resorts' common stock, Wynn Resorts will, through its subsidiaries, control Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital.

        On June 3, 2002, and in preparation for its offering of common stock, Wynn Resorts was incorporated in Nevada.

Wynn Las Vegas believes that certain prospective purchasers of the notes may be restricted in their ability to purchase debt securities of limited liability companies, such as Wynn Las Vegas, unless the debt securities are jointly issued by a corporation. Wynn Capital will not have any operations or material assets and will not have any revenues. As a result, prospective purchasers of the notes should not expect Wynn Capital to participate in servicing amounts required to be paid on the notes.

        As of the date of the indenture, Wynn Las Vegas' only Subsidiaries will be Wynn Capital and the Completion Guarantor. The Completion Guarantor will be an Unrestricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas. Valvino Lamore is an indirect parent of Wynn Las Vegas and the other guarantors described above are subsidiaries of Valvino Lamore.

        The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the indenture and the Collateral Documents. It does not restate any of those agreements in its entirety. We urge you to read the indenture and the Collateral Documents because they, and not this description, define your rights as holders of the notes. Certain defined terms used in this description but not defined below under "—Certain Definitions" have the meanings assigned to them in the indenture.

        The registered Holder of a note will be treated as the owner of that note for all purposes. Only registered Holders will have any rights under the indenture.

Brief Description of the Notes and the Guarantees

        The notes:

143


        The notes will be guaranteed by Wynn Las Vegas' indirect parent, Valvino Lamore, and Valvino Lamore's direct or indirect subsidiaries. Valvino Lamore and its subsidiaries (other than the Issuers and the Subsidiaries of the Issuers) are referred to as the "Restricted Entities." These subsidiaries are:

        Pursuant to the Wynn Resorts Agreement, Wynn Resorts may, in certain limited circumstances, provide for a guarantee of the notes and become a "Parent Guarantor" as more fully described in the covenant entitled "Certain Covenants—Restrictions on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Guarantees by Wynn Resorts."

Principal, Maturity and Interest

        The Issuers may issue notes with a maximum aggregate principal amount of $            million, of which $350.0 million will be issued in this offering. The Issuers may issue additional notes from time to time after this offering. Any offering of additional notes is subject to the covenant described below under the caption "—Certain Covenants—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity." The notes and any additional notes subsequently issued under the indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. The Issuers will issue notes in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The notes will mature on                          , 2010.

144



        Interest on the notes will accrue at the rate of            % per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on                and                 , commencing on                , 2003. The Issuers will make each interest payment to the Holders of record on the immediately preceding                and                 .

        Interest will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

Optional Redemption

        At any time prior to                , 2005, the Issuers may on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the indenture at a redemption price of            % of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings (other than the IPO); provided that:

(1)
at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding notes held by Wynn Resorts or any of its Subsidiaries); and

(2)
the redemption occurs within 60 days of the date of the closing of such Qualified Equity Offering.

        Except pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the notes will not be redeemable at the Issuers' option prior to                , 2006.

        After                , 2006, the Issuers may redeem all or a part of the notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest on the notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on                of the years indicated below:

Year

  Percentage
 
2006     %
2007     %
2008 and thereafter   100.00 %

Gaming Redemption

        Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Gaming Authority requires a holder or beneficial owner of notes to be licensed, qualified or found suitable under any applicable gaming law and the holder or beneficial owner (1) fails to apply for a license, qualification or finding of suitability within 30 days after being requested to do so (or such lesser period as required by the Gaming Authority), or (2) is notified by a Gaming Authority that it will not be licensed, qualified or found suitable, the Issuers will have the right, at their option, to:

(1)
require the holder or beneficial owner to dispose of its notes within 30 days (or such lesser period as required by the Gaming Authority) following the earlier of:

(a)
the termination of the period described above for the holder or beneficial owner to apply for a license, qualification or finding of suitability; or

(b)
receipt of the notice from the Gaming Authority that the holder or beneficial owner will not be licensed, qualified or found suitable by the Gaming Authority; or

145


(2)
redeem the notes of the holder or beneficial owner at a redemption price equal to:

(a)
the price determined by the Gaming Authority, or

(b)
if the Gaming Authority does not determine a price, the lesser of:

(i)
the principal amount of the notes; and

(ii)
the price that the holder or beneficial owner paid for the notes

in each case, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the notes to the earlier of (1) the date of redemption or such earlier date as is required by the Gaming Authority or (2) the date of the finding of unsuitability by the Gaming Authority, which may be less than 30 days following the notice of redemption.

        Immediately upon a determination by a Gaming Authority that a holder or beneficial owner of notes will not be licensed, qualified or found suitable, the holder or beneficial owner will not have any further rights with respect to the notes to:

(1)
exercise, directly or indirectly, through any Person, any right conferred by the notes; or

(2)
receive any interest or any other distribution or payment with respect to the notes, or any remuneration in any form from the Issuers for services rendered or otherwise, except the redemption price of the notes.

        The Issuers are not required to pay or reimburse any holder or beneficial owner of notes who is required to apply for such license, qualification or finding of suitability for the costs relating thereto. Those expenses will be the obligation of the holder or beneficial owner.

Mandatory Redemption

        The Issuers will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the notes.

Guarantees

        The Guarantees will be joint and several obligations of the Guarantors. The obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee will be limited as necessary to reduce the risk that the Guarantee would be avoidable as a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Offering and the Second Mortgage Notes." Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to avoid guarantees and the liens securing the guarantees and require second mortgage note holders to return payments received from us or the Guarantors.

        Each guarantee of the notes:

146


        The Guarantees will be secured by assets of the Guarantors as more fully described under "Security Interests—Security for the Guarantees." In the event that Wynn Resorts becomes a Parent Guarantor by issuing a Parent Guarantee, that Parent Guarantee may be secured by a security interest in all or specified existing or future assets of Wynn Resorts, and may constitute senior or subordinated Indebtedness of Wynn Resorts, as more fully described in the section captioned "Certain Covenants—Restrictions on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Guarantees by Wynn Resorts."

        Subject to compliance with the provisions of the covenant captioned "—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets," the Guarantee of a Guarantor and the security interests granted by that Guarantor to secure its Guarantee will be released:

(1)
in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) Wynn Las Vegas, a Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas or a Restricted Entity, if the sale or other disposition complies with the provisions of the indenture; or

(2)
in connection with any sale of all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) Wynn Las Vegas, a Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas or a Restricted Entity, if the sale complies with the provisions of the indenture.

See "—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales," "—Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries" and "—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets."

        In addition to the release of the Guarantees by Wynn Golf Course or of Valvino Lamore pursuant to the provisions described above, the security interests of the noteholders in the real property assets owned by Wynn Golf Course and Valvino Lamore may be released under the circumstances described below under "Security Interests—Release of Golf Course Land and Phase II Land." The Parent Guarantee, if any, of Wynn Resorts may be released as described under the covenant entitled "Restrictions on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Guarantees by Wynn Resorts."

Security Interests

        General.    Subject to Permitted Liens and to the extent permitted by Gaming Laws and other applicable laws, the notes will be secured by, among other things:

147


        Under Nevada gaming laws, a gaming licensee is not permitted to grant a security interest in any gaming or other license issued by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. As a result, the notes will not be secured by any such gaming licenses.

        Secured Account.    Pending application to the Project, the net proceeds of this offering will be held in a secured account at Wynn Las Vegas (the "Secured Account") by the Disbursement Agent, on behalf of the trustee for the benefit of the holders of the notes. The Secured Account will be established pursuant to a secured account agreement (the "Secured Account Agreement") to be entered into among the Issuers, the Disbursement Agent and the trustee. The Disbursement Agent, on behalf of the trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the notes, will have a perfected first priority security interest in the funds held in the Secured Account. Neither the lenders under the Credit Agreement nor the FF&E Facility will have a security interest in the Secured Account or the funds held in it. The funds in the secured account will be required to be invested in Permitted Securities at the direction of Wynn Las Vegas.

        Release of funds from the Secured Account will be subject to satisfaction of the conditions to funding each disbursement request contained in the Disbursement Agreement. If those conditions have been satisfied, the Disbursement Agent will transfer the necessary funds to the disbursement account created under the Disbursement Agreement. Those funds will then be disbursed to Wynn Las Vegas in accordance with the Disbursement Agreement and applied by Wynn Las Vegas to the development and construction of the Project, including for the payment of Allocable Project Overhead during the construction period, in each case in accordance with the Budget. See "Disbursement Agreement."

        Completion Guarantee Deposit Account.    One of Wynn Las Vegas' Wholly Owned Unrestricted Subsidiaries (the "Completion Guarantor") will provide a $50.0 million completion guarantee in favor of the trustee (for the benefit of the note holders) and the administrative agent (for the benefit of the lenders under the Credit Agreement). The Completion Guarantor will, subject to a $50.0 million cap, guarantee Completion in full of the construction and opening of the Project, including all furniture, fixtures and equipment, the parking structure, the golf course and the availability of initial working capital. Wynn Resorts will make a common equity capital contribution (the "Completion Guarantee Capital Contribution"), concurrently with the closing of this offering and the IPO, of $50.0 million of the net proceeds of the IPO to the Completion Guarantor to support its obligations under the completion guarantee. These funds will be deposited into a collateral account (the "Completion Guarantee Deposit Account") to be held in cash and/or Permitted Securities. The

148



lenders under the Credit Agreement will have a first priority security interest in the funds in the Completion Guarantee Deposit Account, and the trustee will have a second priority security interest in the funds in the Completion Guarantee Deposit Account. Amounts in the Completion Guarantee Deposit Account may be applied to the costs of the Project in accordance with the Disbursement Agreement. Pursuant to the Disbursement Agreement, these funds will be available to Wynn Las Vegas on a gradual basis to apply to the costs of the project only after fifty percent of the construction work has been completed. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement or the indenture, the lenders under the Credit Agreement or, if no amounts are outstanding under the credit Agreement, the holders of the notes will be permitted to exercise remedies against such sums and apply such sums against the obligations under their respective documents. Upon the Completion Date, any amounts then remaining in the Completion Guarantee Deposit Account will be released to Wynn Las Vegas, which may distribute such funds at its discretion, including to Wynn Resorts, and the Completion Guarantor will be dissolved. See "Disbursement Agreement—Completion Guarantee Deposit Account."

        Liquidity Reserve Account.    Wynn Resorts will, concurrently with the closing of this offering and the IPO, make a common equity capital contribution (the "Liquidity Reserve Capital Contribution") to Wynn Las Vegas in an amount equal to $30.0 million. Wynn Las Vegas will deposit these funds in a liquidity reserve account (the "Liquidity Reserve Account") to be held in cash and/or Permitted Securities. The Liquidity Reserve Account will secure Completion in full of the construction and opening of the Project. The lenders under the Credit Agreement will have a first priority security interest in the funds in the Liquidity Reserve Account, and the trustee will have a perfected second priority security interest in the funds in the Liquidity Reserve Account. Amounts in the Liquidity Reserve Account may be applied to the costs of the Project in accordance with the Disbursement Agreement. Upon the Completion Date, any amounts then remaining in the Liquidity Reserve Account will, to the extent funds are not otherwise available from operations, be used solely to pay debt service under the Credit Facility and/or the notes until such time as the actual Consolidated EBITDA of Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the period of four full consecutive fiscal quarters of Wynn Las Vegas equals or exceeds certain specified Consolidated EBITDA levels. At such time, if any, any amounts then remaining in the Liquidity Reserve Account must be used to reduce the amounts then outstanding under the revolving loans under the Credit Agreement without reducing the corresponding commitments under the Credit Agreement. See "Disbursement Agreement—Liquidity Reserve Account."

        Subject to Permitted Liens, and to the extent permitted by Gaming Laws and other applicable laws, the Guarantees will be secured by, among other things:

149


        The Guarantees will not be secured by a security interest in the Aircraft Assets.

As noted above, under Nevada gaming laws, a gaming licensee is not permitted to grant a security interest in any gaming or other license issued by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. As a result, the Guarantees by the Guarantors will not be secured by any such gaming licenses.

        Representatives of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, the trustee and the Issuers will enter into an intercreditor agreement (the "Project Intercreditor Agreement") that will govern the relations between the noteholders and the lenders under the Credit Agreement with respect to the Collateral other than the FF&E Collateral. Representatives of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, the agent for the lenders under the FF&E Facility, the trustee and the Issuers will enter into a different intercreditor agreement (the "FF&E Intercreditor Agreement") that will govern the relations between the noteholders, the lenders under the Credit Agreement and the lenders under the FF&E Facility with respect to the FF&E Collateral. See "Intercreditor Agreements."

        The noteholders' security interests in all or certain portions of the Golf Course Land (and the related water rights) and in all of the Phase II Land may be released under the circumstances described below. Upon any such release of those security interests, the disposition or transfer of such assets will no longer be subject to any of the restrictive covenants in the indenture.

        Release of All of the Golf Course Land.    The security interests in all of the Golf Course Land, the stock of Desert Inn Improvement Co. and the related water rights will be released so long as:

150


        Release of Portions of the Golf Course Land.    The security interests granted by Wynn Golf Course in certain portions of the Golf Course Land will be released if the lenders under the Credit Agreement concurrently release their first priority security interest in such portions of the Golf Course Land so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing immediately prior to or after giving effect to that release. It will not be deemed to be a release of the first priority security interests requiring the automatic release by the noteholders if the release of the first priority lien is as a result of a refinancing of the Credit Agreement resulting in another party having a first priority lien on those assets.

        The Credit Agreement currently provides that the lenders will release their security interests in the portions of the Golf Course Land when Wynn Las Vegas achieves a specified minimum level of Consolidated EBITDA for four consecutive fiscal quarters and requires that the development of those released parcels as residential or other non-gaming related developments not interfere with the operation of the Golf Course Land or otherwise impair the overall value of the property. The lenders under the Credit Agreement may amend or waive any of their conditions to the release of their security interests without the consent of the noteholders and may determine to release their liens under different circumstances, which would nevertheless result in the automatic release of the second priority liens by the noteholders.

        Release of Homesite Acreage.    The security interests in approximately two acres of the Golf Course Land will be released in order to permit the construction of a personal residence for Stephen A. Wynn, so long as:

151


        Release of the Phase II Land.    The security interests granted by Valvino Lamore in the Phase II Land to secure its obligations under its Guarantee will be released if the lenders under the Credit Agreement concurrently release their first priority security interest in the Phase II Land so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing immediately prior to or after giving effect to that release. It will not be deemed to be a release of the first priority security interests requiring the automatic release by the noteholders if the release of the first priority lien is as a result of a refinancing of the Credit Agreement resulting in another party having a first priority lien in those assets.

        The Credit Agreement currently provides that the lenders will release their security interests in the Phase II Land when Wynn Las Vegas achieves specified minimum levels of Consolidated EBITDA for either two or four consecutive fiscal quarters. The lenders under the Credit Agreement may amend or waive any of their conditions to the release of their security interests without the consent of the noteholders and may determine to release their liens under different circumstances, which would nevertheless result in the release of the second priority liens by the noteholders.

        So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and subject to certain terms and conditions in the indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the other Collateral Documents, Wynn Las Vegas and each Guarantor will be entitled to receive the benefit of all cash dividends, interest and other payments made upon or with respect to the Collateral pledged by that entity and to exercise any voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral pledged by that entity. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and, subject to the terms of the Collateral Documents and the limitations in the Intercreditor Agreements and the exercise by the trustee of its rights under the Collateral Documents:

        (1)  upon receipt by the affected entity of notice from the trustee so stating, all rights of such entity to exercise such voting or other consensual rights will cease, and all such rights shall become vested in the trustee which, to the extent permitted by law, will have the sole right to exercise such rights;

152



        (2)  all rights of the entity to receive all cash dividends, interest and other payments made upon or with respect to the Collateral will cease and such cash dividends, interest and other payments will be paid to the trustee; and

        (3)  subject to applicable law, including procedural restraints imposed on sales of collateral by secured creditors generally, the trustee may sell the Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the terms of the indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the other Collateral Documents;

provided that nothing contained in this paragraph shall be deemed to restrict the ability of Wynn Las Vegas to make the Restricted Payments permitted to be made during the occurrence of an Event of Default under the covenant captioned "Certain Covenants—Restricted Payments."

        The ability of Wynn Las Vegas or any Guarantor to grant security interests in the Collateral is limited by Nevada gaming laws. Under Nevada gaming laws, none of Wynn Las Vegas or the Guarantors may grant a security interest in (1) the gaming and other licenses issued to them by the Nevada Gaming Authorities or (2) unless consented to in advance by the Nevada Gaming Authorities, the ownership interests of any person that holds any such license. See "Risk Factors—Preference Risk."

        The trustee's ability to foreclose upon the Collateral will be limited by Nevada gaming laws. These laws require that persons who own or operate a casino or own or lease gambling equipment or gambling supplies hold a gaming license. No person can hold a gaming license in Nevada unless the person is found qualified or suitable by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. During any foreclosure proceeding, the trustee could seek the appointment of a receiver through a petition to the appropriate Nevada state court to take possession of the Collateral. The receiver may be required to obtain the approval of the Nevada Gaming Authorities to continue gaming operations until the foreclosure sale. If the trustee acquired the Collateral in a foreclosure sale, it may contract for the operation of the Collateral by an independent operator who would be required to comply with the licensing requirements and other restrictions imposed by the Nevada Gaming Authorities, pursuant to an arrangement under which the holders of the notes would not share in the profits or losses of gaming operations. In addition, if the trustee acquires and operates the Collateral, the trustee and the holders of the notes will, if they share in the profits and losses, and may, in any event, be required to comply with the licensing requirements under the Nevada gaming laws. In any foreclosure sale, licensing requirements under the Nevada Gaming Control Act may limit the number of potential bidders and may delay the sale of the Collateral, either of which could adversely affect the sale price of the Collateral. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Offerings and the Second Mortgage Notes—Bankruptcy laws may significantly impair your creditors' rights to repossess and dispose of collateral securing the second mortgage notes," "—In the event that a bankruptcy court orders the substantive consolidation of Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital with certain affiliated parties, payments on the second mortgage notes could be delayed or reduced" and "—Contract rights under agreements serving as collateral for the second mortgage notes may be rejected in bankruptcy."

153


        The right of the trustee to repossess and dispose of Collateral upon the occurrence of an Event of Default is likely to be significantly impaired by applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws if a proceeding under those laws were to be commenced by or against Wynn Resorts or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the trustee having repossessed and disposed of the Collateral. Under the Bankruptcy Code, a secured creditor, such as the trustee, is prohibited from repossessing its security from a debtor in a bankruptcy case, or from disposing of security repossessed from such debtor, without bankruptcy court approval.

        In addition, the Bankruptcy Code permits the debtor to continue to retain and to use collateral (and the proceeds, products, offspring, rents or profits of that collateral) even though the debtor is in default under the applicable debt instruments, so long as the secured creditor is given "adequate protection." The meaning of the term "adequate protection" may vary according to the circumstances, but it is intended in general to protect the value of the secured creditor's interest in the collateral and may include, if approved by the bankruptcy court, cash payments or the granting of replacement liens or additional security for any diminution in the value of the collateral as a result of the stay of repossession or the disposition or any use of the collateral by the debtor during the pendency of the bankruptcy case. The bankruptcy court has broad discretionary powers in all these matters, including the valuation of the collateral and the nature, accessibility or value of any other collateral that may be substituted for it. Also, since the enforcement of the trustee's security interest in the Collateral consisting of cash, deposit accounts and cash equivalents may be limited in a bankruptcy proceeding, the holders may not have any consent rights with respect to the use of those funds by Wynn Resorts or any of its Subsidiaries during the pendency of the proceeding.

        In view of these considerations, we cannot predict how long payments under the notes could be delayed following commencement of a bankruptcy case, whether or when the trustee could repossess or dispose of the Collateral or whether or to what extent holders would be compensated for any delay in payment or loss of value of the Collateral.

        Nevada Revised Statutes 704.668 prohibits small water utilities such as Desert Inn Improvement Co. from selling or otherwise disposing of water rights without the prior approval from the PUC. In a separate subsection of the statute, prior PUC approval is also required in order for a small water utility to encumber its water rights by way of mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement or otherwise. Desert Inn Improvement Co. will seek PUC approval to encumber the water rights held by it by whatever instrument is deemed appropriate to do so. The PUC may also require a prior application if a sale or transfer were to occur by way of a foreclosure, since such an event would result in the water rights being taken out of the total control of the utility.

Methods of Receiving Payments on the Notes

        If a Holder has given wire transfer instructions to the Issuers, the Issuers will pay all principal, interest and premium, if any, on that Holder's notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on notes will be made at the office or agency of the paying agent and registrar within the City and State of New York unless the Issuers elect to make interest payments by check mailed to the Holders at the addresses provided in the register of Holders.

154



Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes

        The trustee will initially act as paying agent and registrar. The Issuers may change the paying agent or registrar without prior notice to the Holders, and either of the Issuers or any of their subsidiaries may act as paying agent or registrar.

Transfer and Exchange

        A Holder may transfer or exchange notes in accordance with the indenture. The registrar and the trustee may require a Holder to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents in connection with a transfer of notes. Holders will be required to pay all taxes due on transfer. The Issuers are not required to transfer or exchange any note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuers are not required to transfer or exchange any note for a period of 15 days before a selection of notes to be redeemed.

Repurchase at the Option of Holders

        If a Change of Control occurs, each holder of notes will have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000) of that holder's notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on the terms set forth in the indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuers will offer a payment (the "Change of Control Payment") in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest on the notes repurchased, to the date of purchase. Within 10 days following any Change of Control, the Issuers will mail a notice to each holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase notes on the date (the "Change of Control Payment Date") specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the indenture and described in such notice.

        On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers will, to the extent lawful:

(1)
accept for payment all notes or portions of the notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2)
deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all notes or portions of the notes so tendered; and

(3)
deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the notes properly accepted together with an officers' certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions of the notes being purchased by the Issuers.

        The paying agent will promptly mail to each holder of notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such notes, and the trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new note will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. The Issuers will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

        The provisions described above that require the Issuers to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable regardless of whether any other provisions of the indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, the indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders to

155



require that the Issuers repurchase or redeem notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

        The Issuers will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

        The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of "all or substantially all" of the properties or assets of Wynn Las Vegas, its Restricted Subsidiaries and the Restricted Entities, taken as a whole, or Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase "substantially all," there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of notes to require the Issuers to repurchase its notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of Wynn Las Vegas, its Restricted Subsidiaries and the Restricted Entities, taken as a whole, or Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another Person or group may be uncertain.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, nor will Wynn Las Vegas permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1)
no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing immediately prior to or after giving effect to such Asset Sale;

(2)
except with respect to Non-Project Assets, the Project is Operating;

(3)
the applicable entity receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of (it being understood that a percentage of the purchase price may be subject to escrow arrangements customary for asset sales);

(4)
if the aggregate consideration to be received by the applicable entity is in excess of $10.0 million, the fair market value is evidenced by a certificate of the chief financial officer of the applicable entity delivered to the trustee; and

(5)
at least 75% (or 95%, in the case of any Asset Sale that occurs on or before the Completion Date) of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the applicable entity is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents.

For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

156


        After the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by Wynn Las Vegas, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Restricted Entity, the applicable entity:

provided that the security interest of the trustee, on behalf of the holders, will continue as a perfected security interest (subject only to the security interest securing the Credit Agreement and other Permitted Liens and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements) on any property or assets acquired or constructed with the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale on the terms set forth in the indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the other Collateral Documents. Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the applicable entity may (1) apply the Net Proceeds to temporarily reduce amounts outstanding under any secured unsubordinated Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or (2) invest the Net Proceeds in Cash Equivalents which will be subject to a perfected security interest (subject only to the security interest securing the Credit Agreement and other Permitted Liens and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements) in favor of the trustee as security for the notes.

        Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will constitute "Excess Proceeds." Within 10 days following the date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, Wynn Las Vegas will make an offer (an "Asset Sale Offer") to all holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the applicable entity may use those Excess Proceeds for any general corporate purpose not prohibited by the indenture and the Collateral Documents. If the aggregate principal amount of notes tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the trustee will select the notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

        After any Event of Loss occurring after the Final Completion Date with respect to any Collateral comprising the Project with a fair market value (or replacement cost, if greater) of up to $500.0 million, Wynn Las Vegas, the applicable Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas or the applicable Restricted Entity, as the case may be, will apply the Net Loss Proceeds from the Event of Loss to the rebuilding, repair, replacement or construction of improvements to the Project, with no obligation to make any purchase of any notes; provided that, in the case

157


of any such Collateral with a fair market value (or replacement cost, if higher) in excess of $15.0 million but less than or equal to $500.0 million:

(1)
Wynn Las Vegas delivers to the trustee within 60 days of the Event of Loss a written opinion from a reputable contractor that the Minimum Facilities can be rebuilt, repaired, replaced or constructed and Operating within 365 days following the Event of Loss;

(2)
Wynn Las Vegas delivers to the trustee within 60 days of the Event of Loss an officers' certificate certifying that the applicable entity has available from Net Loss Proceeds, cash on hand or available borrowings under Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the covenant described below under the caption "Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity" to complete the rebuilding, repair, replacement or construction described in clause (1) above and, together with any anticipated revenues projected to be generated during the repair or restoration period, to pay debt service on its Indebtedness during the repair or restoration period; and

(3)
the damaged Collateral is rebuilt, repaired, replaced or constructed and operating in substantially the manner that it was operating immediately prior to the Event of Loss within 365 days following the Event of Loss;

provided that, if the damaged Collateral is not necessary for and is not used in the operation of the Permitted Business of the Project, the applicable entity may apply the Net Loss Proceeds to make a capital expenditure, improve real property or acquire long-term assets that are used or useful in a line of business permitted by the covenant described below under the caption "—Certain Covenants—Line of Business."

        The ability of Wynn Las Vegas, the applicable Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Entities to repair or restore any of the Collateral following an Event of Loss that occurs on or prior to the Final Completion Date will be governed by the Disbursement Agreement.

        Any Net Loss Proceeds that are not (1) permitted to be used to repair or restore the Collateral pursuant to the Disbursement Agreement, (2) reinvested as provided in the first sentence of this covenant or (3) permitted to be reinvested because those Net Loss Proceeds exceed $500.0 million, in each case, will be deemed "Excess Loss Proceeds." Within 10 days following the date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Loss Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, Wynn Las Vegas will make an offer (an "Event of Loss Offer") to all holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Loss Proceeds. The offer price in any Event of Loss Offer will be 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Loss Proceeds remain after consummation of an Event of Loss Offer, the applicable entity may use those Excess Loss Proceeds for any general corporate purpose not prohibited by the indenture and the Collateral Documents. If the aggregate principal amount of notes tendered into such Event of Loss Offer exceeds the Excess Loss Proceeds, the trustee will select the notes to be purchased as described below under "—Selection and Notice". Upon completion of each Event of Loss Offer, the amount of Excess Loss Proceeds will be reset at zero.

        Pending their application, all Net Loss Proceeds will either be (1) applied to temporarily reduce amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement, or (2) invested in Cash Equivalents held in an account in which the trustee has a perfected security interest for the benefit of the Holders, subject only to the security interest securing the Credit Agreement and other Permitted Liens and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements. These funds and securities will be released to the applicable entity to pay for or reimburse that entity for either (1) the actual

158



cost of a permitted use of Net Loss Proceeds as provided above, or (2) the Event of Loss Offer, pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents. The applicable entity will grant to the trustee, on behalf of the Holders, a security interest, subject only to the security interest securing the Credit Agreement and other Permitted Liens and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, on any property or assets rebuilt, repaired, replaced or constructed with such Net Loss Proceeds on the terms set forth in the indenture and the Collateral Documents.

        In the event of an Event of Loss pursuant to clause (3) of the definition of "Event of Loss" with respect to property or assets that have a fair market value (or replacement cost, if greater) in excess of $10.0 million, the applicable entity, will be required to receive consideration:

(1)
at least equal to the fair market value (evidenced by a resolution of Wynn Las Vegas' Board of Directors set forth in an officers' certificate delivered to the trustee) of the property or assets subject to the Event of Loss; and

(2)
at least 90% of which is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents.

        The agreements governing our other indebtedness, including the Credit Agreement and the FF&E Facility, may prohibit certain events, including a Change of Control or an Asset Sale, or provide that such events constitute events of default under such agreements. Similarly, those agreements may prohibit or restrict Wynn Las Vegas, its Restricted Subsidiaries and the Restricted Entities from repairing or restoring the Collateral following an Event of Loss regardless of whether that repair or restoration is permitted under the indenture. In addition, the exercise by the holders of notes of their rights to require Wynn Las Vegas to repurchase the notes upon a Change of Control Offer, an Asset Sale Offer or Event of Loss Offer, as the case may be, could cause a default under these other agreements. Finally, Wynn Las Vegas' ability to pay cash to the holders of notes upon a repurchase under a Change of Control Offer, Asset Sale Offer or Event of Loss Offer may be limited by Wynn Las Vegas' then existing financial resources. See "Risk Factors—"We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to finance a change of control offer."

Compliance with Securities Laws

        The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent these laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, an Asset Sale Offer or an Event of Loss Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control, Asset Sale or Event of Loss provisions of the indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under these provisions of the indenture by virtue of such conflict.

Selection and Notice

        If less than all of the notes are to be redeemed at any time, the trustee will select notes for redemption as follows:

(1)
if the notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the notes are listed; or

159


(2)
if the notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by any other method the trustee deems fair and appropriate.

        No notes of $1,000 or less can be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of notes to be redeemed at its registered address. Notices of redemption may not be conditional.

        If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that note will state the portion of the principal amount of the note that is to be redeemed. A new note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original note will be issued in the name of the Holder of notes upon cancellation of the original note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on notes or portions of them called for redemption.

Certain Covenants

        Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will not, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(1)
declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of any Equity Interests of Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Entity (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation) or to the direct or indirect holders of any Equity Interests of Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Entity in any capacity (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Entity or pro rata dividends or distributions payable to Wynn Las Vegas or any of Wynn Las Vegas' Restricted Subsidiaries);

(2)
purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or consolidation) any Equity Interests of Wynn Las Vegas, any direct or indirect parent of Wynn Las Vegas (including, without limitation, Wynn Resorts), Valvino Lamore or any Restricted Entity;

make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness that is subordinated to the notes or the Guarantees under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements, except a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or

(4)
make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as "Restricted Payments"),

unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

(1)
the Project is Operating; and

(2)
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; and

(3)
Wynn Las Vegas would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described below under the caption "—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity;" and

160


(4)
such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by Wynn Las Vegas, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Restricted Entity after the date of the indenture (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (5) and (12) (with respect to clause (5) to the extent such Restricted Payments were already deducted from Consolidated Net Income)) of the next succeeding paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(a)
50% of the Consolidated Net Income of Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing after the Completion Date to the end of Wynn Las Vegas' most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), plus

(b)
100% of the aggregate Net New Equity Proceeds since the date of the indenture, excluding any Net New Equity Proceeds (i) to the extent those proceeds are utilized as a basis for incurring Indebtedness pursuant to clause (11) or (12) of the second paragraph of the covenant captioned "—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity," (ii) any capital contributions made to Wynn Las Vegas for the purpose of satisfying the "in-balance" requirements of the Disbursement Agreement, and (iii) to the extent such Net New Equity Proceeds are derived from the incurrence of any Project Related Indebtedness, unless at the time of any proposed Restricted Payment to be made based upon amounts available for Restricted Payments under subclause (iii) of this clause (b), and pro forma for such Restricted Payment, Wynn Las Vegas would have been able to incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant captioned "—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity"; provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under this subclause (iii), the Fixed Charges of Wynn Resorts shall be included as a Fixed Charge in the calculation of "Fixed Charges," plus

(c)
(i) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the date of the indenture is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash for an amount in excess of the initial amount of such Restricted Investment, the sum of (x) 50% of the cash proceeds with respect to such Restricted Investment in excess of the aggregate amount invested in such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (y) the aggregate amount invested in such Restricted Investment, and (ii) to the extent that any such Restricted Investment is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid in cash for an amount equal to or less than the initial amount of such Restricted Investment, the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any), plus

(d)
100% of any cash dividends or cash distributions received by Wynn Las Vegas or a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of the indenture from an Unrestricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, to the extent that such dividends or distributions were not otherwise included in Consolidated Net Income of Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries, plus

(e)
to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of the indenture, the lesser of (i) the fair market value of Wynn Las Vegas's Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation or (ii) such fair market value as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

161


        With respect to (a) any payments made pursuant to clauses (1), (2), (3), (6), (7), (8), (9), (10), (11) and (12) below, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused by the payments, and (b) any payments made pursuant to clauses (4) and (5) below, regardless of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused by the payment, the preceding provisions will not prohibit:

(1)
the payment of any dividend or distribution (other than any distribution made under clause (5) below) within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend or distribution, if at the date of declaration the dividend payment or distribution payment would have complied with the provisions of the indenture;

(2)
the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any subordinated Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Equity Interests of Wynn Las Vegas in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas) of, Equity Interests of Wynn Las Vegas (other than Disqualified Stock); provided, however, that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition shall be excluded from clause (4)(b) of the preceding paragraph;

(3)
the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of subordinated Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;

(4)
the distribution to Wynn Resorts, directly or through any intermediate Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts, of amounts necessary to repurchase Equity Interests or Indebtedness of Wynn Resorts (other than Equity Interests held by or Indebtedness owed to the Existing Stockholders) to the extent required by any Gaming Authority having jurisdiction over Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for not more than the fair market value thereof in order to avoid the suspension, revocation or denial of a Gaming License by that Gaming Authority; provided that so long as such efforts do not jeopardize any Gaming License, Wynn Resorts and its Subsidiaries shall have diligently attempted to find a third-party purchaser for such Equity Interests or Indebtedness and no third-party purchaser acceptable to the applicable Gaming Authority was willing to purchase such Equity Interests or Indebtedness within a time period acceptable to such Gaming Authority;

(5)
distributions to the direct or indirect owners of Wynn Las Vegas, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Restricted Entity with respect to any period during which such entity is a Pass Through Entity or a Consolidated Member, such distributions in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Tax Amount for such period;

(6)
(a) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of Wynn Resorts, or (b) the distribution to Wynn Resorts, directly or through any intermediate Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries of Wynn Resorts, of amounts necessary to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value Equity Securities of Wynn Resorts, in each case held by any member of management of Wynn Resorts or any Restricted Entity (or the estate or trust for the benefit of any such member of management) pursuant to the provisions of the operating agreement, or comparable governing documents, or employee benefit plans or employment agreements of any such Person; provided that the aggregate consideration for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests, together with the aggregate amount of all such distributions made to Wynn Resorts, shall not exceed $2.0 million in any calendar year;

162


(7)
the payment of Management Fees when due and payable under the Management Agreement to the extent such payments are made in compliance with the covenant captioned "—Restrictions on Payments of Management Fees;"

(8)

Restricted Payments consisting of transfers and other dispositions of Released Assets; and

(13)
Restricted Payments not otherwise permitted by the foregoing clauses (1) through (12) in an aggregate amount of not more than $10.0 million.

        The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the assets or securities proposed to be transferred or issued to or by the applicable entity pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this covenant will be determined in good faith by the applicable entity's Board of Directors whose resolution with respect thereto will be delivered to the trustee. At the same time as the delivery of the financial information required to be delivered under clause (1) of the covenant captioned "—Reports," the Issuers will deliver to the trustee an officers' certificate describing in reasonable detail all of the Restricted Payments made during the period to which such financial information relates, stating that such Restricted Payments were permitted when made and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this "Restricted Payments" covenant were computed.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, "incur") any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and none of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will issue any Disqualified Stock or shares of preferred stock and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Disqualified Stock or shares of preferred equity; provided, however, Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), if (1) the Project is Operating and (2) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of Wynn Las Vegas for Wynn Las Vegas' most recently ended four full fiscal quarters following the Completion Date for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred (the "Reference Period") would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis, including a pro forma application of the net proceeds from the Indebtedness, as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

163


        The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom (collectively, "Permitted Debt"):

(1)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the sum of the face amount thereof and related unpaid reimbursement obligations) not to exceed an amount equal to (a) $1.0 billion less (b) the aggregate amount of all permanent reductions in the revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement, less (c) the aggregate amount of all principal repayments (other than regularly scheduled repayments of principal) and mandatory prepayments of non-revolving credit Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement;

(2)
the incurrence by the Issuers, the Restricted Subsidiaries of Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities of their respective obligations arising under the notes, the Credit Agreement and, to the extent those obligations would represent Indebtedness, the Collateral Documents;

(3)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by the indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this covenant or clauses (2) or (7) of this paragraph;

(4)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among Wynn Las Vegas and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the incurrence by the Restricted Entities of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Restricted Entities, and the incurrence by the Restricted Entities of intercompany Indebtedness (to the extent that Wynn Las Vegas or a Restricted Subsidiary would be permitted to make loans giving rise to, or otherwise hold, such Indebtedness as a Restricted Payment under the covenant captioned "—Restricted Payments") owing to Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that:

(a)
if Wynn Las Vegas or any Guarantor is the obligor on the Indebtedness, the Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the notes, in the case of the Wynn Las Vegas, or its guarantee under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement to which it is a party, in the case of a Guarantor; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas or any Guarantor will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas or any such Guarantor solely by virtue of being unsecured; and

(b)
(i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than a Guarantor or Wynn Las Vegas or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof, and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is neither Wynn Las Vegas nor a Restricted Subsidiary thereof nor any Guarantor shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by Wynn Las Vegas or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (4);
(5)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose of fixing or hedging interest rate risk with

164


(6)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness solely in respect of performance, surety, appeal or similar bonds or standby letters of credit; provided that any such bond or standby letter of credit is in an aggregate amount not to exceed $20.0 million at any one time outstanding;

(7)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of FF&E Financing or Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, including the FF&E Facility in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or part of the purchase price or cost of construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the Project by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that

(a)
the principal amount of such Indebtedness does not exceed the cost (including sales and excise taxes, installation and delivery charges and other direct costs of, and other direct expenses paid or charged in connection with, such purchase) of the FF&E or other assets purchased or leased with the proceeds thereof,

(b)
unless such Indebtedness is unsecured or is incurred under the FF&E Facility, as in effect of the date of the indenture, then not less than 70% of aggregate fair market value of the purchase or lease costs of such FF&E or other assets is paid with the proceeds of Indebtedness incurred under this clause (7), and

(c)
the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause, does not exceed an amount outstanding at any time equal to the greater of:

(A)
$178.5 million less (i) the aggregate amount of all principal repayments and mandatory prepayments made under the FF&E Facility, less (ii) permanent commitment reductions under the FF&E Facility resulting from the application of Asset Sale or Event of Loss proceeds, and

(B)
$100.0 million,
(8)
the Guarantee by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of any other of Wynn Las Vegas and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the Guarantee by any Restricted Entity of Indebtedness of another Restricted Entity, in either case, to the extent the Indebtedness to be Guaranteed is permitted to be incurred by such other Restricted Entity by another provision of this covenant;

(9)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in connection with the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of Equity Interests of Wynn Resorts, Valvino Lamore or any Restricted Entity permitted pursuant to the provisions of clause (6) of the covenant captioned "—Restricted Payments";

(10)
the incurrence or issuance by Wynn Las Vegas' Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Non-Recourse Debt, provided, however, that if any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary (but continues to be Indebtedness of a Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas), such event will be deemed to constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas that was not permitted by this clause (10);

165


(11)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness to be used to develop and construct an entertainment facility on land included in the Project (other than the Phase II Land or the Golf Course Land) in an aggregate principal amount (or original accreted value, as applicable) at any time not to exceed the lesser of (a) $50.0 million and (b) 200% of the Net New Equity Proceeds received by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of the indenture and used to develop and construct that entertainment facility, excluding any Net New Equity Proceeds to the extent those proceeds are utilized as a basis for incurring Indebtedness pursuant to clause (12) below or to the making of Restricted Payments under clause (4)(b) of the second paragraph of the covenant captioned "—Restricted Payments"; provided that such Indebtedness is incurred under the Credit Agreement or through the issuance of additional notes under the indenture, or is unsecured Indebtedness;

(12)
the incurrence by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or initial accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding incurred pursuant to this clause (12), not to exceed $50.0 million; provided that Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (12) prior to the Completion Date is matched dollar for dollar, by additional Net New Equity Proceeds received by Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of the indenture, excluding any Net New Equity Proceeds to the extent those proceeds are utilized as a basis for incurring Indebtedness pursuant to clause (11) above or to the making of Restricted Payments under clause (4)(b) of the second paragraph of the covenant captioned "—Restricted Payments," provided, further, that such Indebtedness is incurred under the Credit Agreement or the FF&E Facility or through the issuance of additional notes under the indenture, or is unsecured Indebtedness; and

(13)
the accretion or amortization of original issue discount and the write-up of Indebtedness in accordance with GAAP purchase accounting.

        Neither Wynn Las Vegas nor any Guarantor will incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas or such Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated (except for the priority of Permitted Liens and except as otherwise contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreements) in right of payment to the notes, in the case of Wynn Las Vegas, or the Guarantee contained in its Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in the case of a Guarantor on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas or any Guarantor will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Wynn Las Vegas or any such Restricted Subsidiary solely by virtue of being unsecured.

        For purposes of determining compliance with this "Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity" covenant, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (13) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, the Issuers will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this covenant.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to

166


exist any Lien of any kind on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, or any proceeds, income or profits therefrom or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, except Permitted Liens.

        Wynn Las Vegas will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to:

(1)
pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to Wynn Las Vegas or any Guarantor, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to Wynn Las Vegas or any Guarantor;

(2)
make loans or advances to Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3)
transfer any of its properties or assets to Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

        However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(1)
the notes, the indenture or the Collateral Documents;

(2)
applicable law, including rules, regulations and orders issued by any Gaming Authority;

(3)
customary non-assignment provisions in contracts, licenses or leases entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with practices that are customary in the gaming, lodging or entertainment industry;

(4)
the Credit Agreement and the FF&E Facility as in effect on the date of the indenture and any other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred by the indenture and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements, provided that the applicable provisions of amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements, refinancings or agreements governing other Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the Credit Agreement and the FF&E Facility on the date of the indenture;

(5)
the acquisition of the Capital Stock of any Person, or property or assets of any Person by Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Subsidiary, if the encumbrances or restrictions (a) existed at the time of the acquisition and were not incurred in contemplation thereof and (b) are not applicable to and are not spread to cover any Person or the property or assets of any Person other than the Person acquired or the property or assets of the Person acquired;

(6)
purchase money obligations or Capital Lease Obligations for FF&E acquired under the FF&E Facility and other Indebtedness permitted under clause (7) of the covenant captioned "—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity" that impose restrictions of the type described in clause (3) of the first paragraph of this covenant on the FF&E so acquired;

(7)
any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition;

167


(8)
Liens permitted to be incurred under the provisions of the covenant described above under the caption "—Liens," securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred under the covenant described above under the caption "—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity," that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; or

customary provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in partnership or joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business.

        No Issuer or Guarantor may, directly or indirectly (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Issuer or the Guarantor is the surviving entity) or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of (a) Wynn Las Vegas, its Restricted Subsidiaries and the Restricted Entities, taken as a whole, (b) Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (c) in the case of a Guarantor, that Guarantor, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless:

(1)
either (a) such Issuer or Guarantor is the surviving entity or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer or Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;

(2)
the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer or Guarantor) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made assumes all the obligations of such Issuer or Guarantor under the notes, the indenture, Guarantees and the Collateral Documents pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee; provided that this clause (2) shall not apply to any merger, consolidation, sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets of a Guarantor with, into or to Wynn Las Vegas, so long as, in the case of any consolidation or merger, Wynn Las Vegas is the survivor of such consolidation or merger;

(3)
immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists;

(4)
such transaction would not result in the loss or suspension or material impairment of any Gaming License unless a comparable replacement Gaming License is effective at no material cost prior to or simultaneously with such loss, suspension or material impairment;

(5)
such Issuer or Guarantor or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer or Guarantor), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made:

(a)
will have Consolidated Net Worth immediately after the transaction equal to or greater than the Consolidated Net Worth of such Issuer or Guarantor immediately preceding the transaction (excluding the effect of the professional fees, commissions, sales and other taxes, and other transactional costs that would otherwise reduce Consolidated Net Worth); and

(b)
will, with respect to such Issuer only, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur

168


(6)
such transaction, at the time it is undertaken, would not require any holder or beneficial owner of notes to obtain a Gaming License or be qualified or found suitable under the law of any applicable gaming jurisdiction; provided that such holder or beneficial owner would not have been required to obtain a Gaming License or be qualified or found suitable under the laws of any applicable gaming jurisdiction in the absence of such transaction.

        In addition, no Issuer or Guarantor may, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person. This "Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets" covenant will not apply to a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among Wynn Las Vegas and any of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Guarantor.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Issuer and Guarantor is permitted to reorganize as a corporation pursuant to a Permitted C-Corp. Conversion.

        The Board of Directors of Wynn Las Vegas may designate any Restricted Subsidiary, other than Wynn Capital, to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas if that designation would not cause a Default. None of the Restricted Entities is permitted to have Unrestricted Subsidiaries. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated will be deemed to be an Investment made in an Unrestricted Subsidiary as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the covenant described above under the caption "—Restricted Payments" or Permitted Investments, as determined by Wynn Las Vegas. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of Wynn Las Vegas may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each, an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless:

(1)
the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the relevant entity than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by such entity with an unrelated Person; and

(2)
Wynn Las Vegas delivers to the trustee:

(a)
with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the applicable entity set forth in an officers' certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate

169


        The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(1)
any employment agreement entered into by Wynn Las Vegas, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Restricted Entity in the ordinary course of business on terms customary in the applicable Permitted Business in which it operates;

(2)
payments of Management Fees when due and payable under the Management Agreement to the extent such payments are made in compliance with the covenant captioned "—Restrictions on Payments of Management Fees;"

(3)
the payment of reasonable directors' fees to directors of Wynn Resorts or any Guarantor, and customary indemnification and insurance arrangements in favor of such directors, in each case in the ordinary course of business;

(4)
transactions between or among Wynn Las Vegas and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries and Transactions between or among the Restricted Entities;

(5)
Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of the indenture described above under the caption "—Restricted Payments;" and

(6)
the Affiliate Agreements, in each case as in effect on the date of the indenture or as amended, modified or supplemented as permitted under the covenant captioned "—Amendments to Certain Agreements".

        Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will construct the Project, including the furnishing, fixturing and equipping of the Project, with diligence and continuity in a good and workmanlike manner substantially in accordance with the Plans and Specifications.

        Wynn Las Vegas will deposit all of the net proceeds of the offering of the notes into the Secured Account. The funds in the Secured Account will be invested solely in Permitted Securities. All funds in the Secured Account will be disbursed only in accordance with the Secured Account Agreement and the Disbursement Agreement.

        The Issuers and Guarantors will not be or become required to register as an "investment company" (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), or otherwise become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction

170


(except with respect to the FF&E Collateral or the Aircraft Assets); provided that Wynn Golf Course, Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if:

(1)
Wynn Las Vegas could have (a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to that sale and leaseback transaction under the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption "—Incurrence of Additional Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity" and (b) incurred a Lien to secure Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt pursuant to the covenant described above under the caption "—Liens";

(2)
the gross cash proceeds of that sale and leaseback transaction are at least equal to the fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of Wynn Golf Course, Wynn Las Vegas or that Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, and set forth in an officers' certificate delivered to the trustee, of the property that is the subject of that sale and leaseback transaction; and

(3)
the transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is permitted by, and Wynn Golf Course, Wynn Las Vegas or such Restricted Subsidiary applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with, the covenant described above under the caption "—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales."

        None of Wynn Las Vegas or the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in any business or investment activities other than the Permitted Business. None of Wynn Las Vegas nor any Restricted Entity nor any Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas may conduct a Permitted Business in any gaming jurisdiction in which such entity is not licensed on the date hereof if the holders of the notes would be required to be licensed as a result thereof; provided that the provisions described in this sentence will not prohibit any entity from conducting a Permitted Business in any jurisdiction that does not require the licensing or qualification of all the holders of notes, but reserves the discretionary right to require the licensing or qualification of any holders of notes.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas, the Restricted Entities or any of their respective Subsidiaries will, at any time prior to the date on which the security interests in the Phase II Land are released in accordance with the covenant entitled "—Release of Security Interests":

(1)
develop or improve in any material respect or at any material cost the Phase II Land or construct any improvements or any building on the Phase II Land, including any excavation or site work on the Phase II Land,

(2)
enter into any contract or agreement for such construction, development or improvement, or for any materials, supplies or labor necessary in connection with such construction, development or improvement (other than a contract or agreement that is conditional upon the release of the noteholders' security interests in the Phase II Land), or

(3)
incur any Indebtedness, the proceeds of which are expected to be used, or are used, for the construction, development or improvement of the Phase II Land or any building on the Phase II Land;

provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (1) through (3) above, the Phase II Land may be maintained and repaired in the ordinary course of business

171



and any improvements existing on the Phase II Land on the date of the indenture may be remodeled to conform to the Project in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, and the interior of the existing improvements may be reconfigured to provide office space and associated amenities, gallery space or design support for the Project.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas, the Restricted Entities or any of their respective Subsidiaries will, at any time prior to the date on which the security interests in all of the Golf Course Land are released in accordance with the covenant entitled "—Release of Security Interests":

(1)
develop or improve in any material respect or at any material cost the Golf Course Land or construct any improvements or any building on the Golf Course Land, including any excavation or site work on the Golf Course Land,

(2)
enter into any contract or agreement for such construction, development or improvement or for any materials, supplies or labor necessary in connection with such construction, development or improvement (other than a contract or agreement that is conditional upon the release of the noteholders' security interests in the Golf Course Land), or

(3)
incur any Indebtedness, the proceeds of which are expected to be used, or are used, for the construction, development or improvement of the Golf Course Land,

in each case, except for the purpose of developing and constructing the 18-hold championship golf course as contemplated by the Golf Course Lease and the Plans and Specification and except for maintaining or improving such golf course on the Golf Course Land and except for reconfiguring certain portions of the golf course in connection with the release of portions of the Golf Course Land in accordance with the provisions set forth under "Release of Security—Release of Portions of Golf Course Land".

        Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will not, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(1)
pay to Wynn Resorts, Valvino Lamore, any Restricted Entity or any Affiliate of any of those Persons (other than Wynn Las Vegas) any Management Fees, except, subject to clause (3) below, in amounts not to exceed the amounts contemplated by the Management Agreement, as in effect on the date hereof,

(2)
prepay any Management Fees, or

(3)
make any payment of any Management Fees:

(a)
if at the time of payment of such Management Fee, a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or will occur as a result thereof; or

(b)
unless the Issuers would, at the time of payment of such Management Fee and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have met certain financial tests set forth in the Credit Agreement.

        Any Management Fees not permitted to be paid pursuant to this covenant will be deferred and will accrue and may be paid only at the time that they would otherwise be permitted to be paid under the indenture. Under the Management Agreement, the right to receive payment of the Management Fees will be subordinated in right of payment to the right of the holders of notes to receive payments pursuant to the notes and the Guarantees;

172



provided, however, that the right to receive payment of Management Fees will not be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment solely by virtue of being unsecured.

        All advances to Guarantors made by Wynn Las Vegas, any Restricted Entity or any of Wynn Las Vegas' Restricted Subsidiaries after the date of the indenture will be evidenced by intercompany notes and will be pledged pursuant to the Collateral Documents. Each intercompany note will be payable upon demand and will bear interest at then current fair market interests rates.

        The Restricted Entities will cause each of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to be Wholly Owned Subsidiaries of the Restricted Entities. The Issuers will cause each of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to be Wholly Owned Subsidiaries of the Issuers.

        Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will not, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Equity Interests in any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or Wholly Owned Restricted Entity to any Person (other than Wynn Las Vegas, a Restricted Subsidiary, a Restricted Entity or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of a Restricted Entity that is a Guarantor), unless:

(1)
such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition is of all the Equity Interests in such entity; and

(2)
the cash Net Proceeds from such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition are applied in accordance with the covenant described above under the caption "—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales."

        In addition, Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will not, and will not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to, issue any of their respective Equity Interests (other than, if necessary, shares of their respective Capital Stock constituting directors' qualifying shares) to any Person other than to Wynn Las Vegas, a Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, a Restricted Entity or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of a Restricted Entity that is a Guarantor.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Guarantee or pledge any assets to secure the payment and/or performance of any other Indebtedness of Wynn Resorts or Valvino Lamore unless each applicable entity simultaneously executes and delivers:

(1)
to the extent not previously provided, a Guarantee of the payment of the notes by such entity, which Guarantee will be senior to or pari passu with such entity's Guarantee of such other Indebtedness; and

(2)
such Collateral Documents, if any, as shall be necessary to grant a security interest securing the notes in favor of the trustee in the assets in which such entity has granted a security interest to secure the payment and/or performance of such other Indebtedness, which security interest will be senior to or pari passu with the security interest granted by such entity to secure such other Indebtedness.

        Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, any Guarantee of the notes will provide by its terms that it will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged under the circumstances described above under the caption "—Guarantees—Release of Guarantees."

173



        On or prior to the Final Completion Date, except as contemplated by the Disbursement Agreement, none of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, amend, modify, waive or otherwise change, or consent or agree to any amendment, modification, waiver or other change to, or otherwise fail to enforce, or terminate or abandon, any of the provisions of any Affiliate Agreement, the Construction Contract, the Construction Contract Guarantee, the Design/Build Contract or the Payment and Performance Bond if such amendment, modification, waiver or other change, failure to enforce, termination or abandonment (individually or collectively with all such amendments, modifications, waivers and other changes, failures to enforce, terminations or abandonments taken as a whole) would (1) have a material adverse affect on the ability of Wynn Las Vegas or Valvino Lamore to develop, construct or operate the Project or (2) cause the Completion Date to occur or result in that date occurring, after the Outside Completion Deadline.

        Following the Final Completion Date, none of Wynn Las Vegas or any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, amend, modify, waive or otherwise change, or consent or agree to any amendment, modification, waiver or other change to, or otherwise fail to enforce, or terminate or abandon, any of the provisions of any Key Operational Agreement if such amendment, modification, waiver or other change, failure to enforce, termination or abandonment (individually or collectively with all such amendments, modifications, waivers and other changes, failures to enforce, terminations or abandonments taken as a whole) would

(1)
increase the amounts payable to third parties thereunder by Wynn Las Vegas (except as otherwise permitted by the indenture), any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Restricted Entity,

(2)
change the dates on which such amounts are to be paid to dates earlier than those originally contemplated thereby,

(3)
reduce the services provided to Wynn Las Vegas, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Restricted Entity unless accompanied by a corresponding decrease in the amounts payable by Wynn Las Vegas, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Restricted Entity thereunder, or

(4)
materially impair the rights or remedies of the holders of the notes.

        None of Wynn Las Vegas nor any of the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to:

(1)
dissolve, or

(2)
with respect to any entity that is a limited liability company, amend, modify or otherwise change, its limited liability company agreement or other charter documents, or otherwise permit any such agreement or document, to provide that the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy, dissolution or dissociation of a member of that limited liability company or any other event affecting a member of that limited liability company either terminates the status of that Person as a member of the limited liability company or causes the limited liability company to be dissolved or its affairs wound up.

174


        Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain insurance with reputable and financially sound carriers against such risks and in such amounts as are customarily carried by similarly situated businesses, including, without limitation, property and casualty insurance; provided that such insurance coverage (including deductibles, retentions and self-insurance amounts) shall at all times comply with the insurance coverage required under the Disbursement Agreement.

        Concurrently with (1) the formation or acquisition of any Restricted Entity or Restricted Subsidiary that, in either case, becomes or is required under the Credit Agreement to become a Guarantor of any of the obligations under the Credit Agreement, (2) the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, or (3) the reorganization by any Restricted Entity as a subchapter "C" corporation in a Permitted C-Corp. Conversion, Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities shall, to the extent not prohibited by Gaming Authorities or applicable Gaming Laws and subject to the Intercreditor Agreements:

(1)
(a)     cause such Restricted Entity or Restricted Subsidiary or subchapter "C" corporation (if such subchapter "C" corporation is not an Issuer) to guarantee all obligations of the Issuers under the indenture and the notes by executing and delivering to the trustee an assumption agreement in the form of Annex 1 to the applicable Guarantee and Collateral Agreement; or

(b)
if such subchapter "C" corporation is an Issuer, cause such subchapter "C" corporation to execute and deliver to the trustee (i) a supplemental indenture, (ii) an assumption agreement unconditionally and irrevocably assuming all of the right, title and interest of the Issuer that was so reorganized as a subchapter "C" corporation in, to and under the indenture and the notes, and (iii) replacement notes for the notes previously issued by the Issuer that was so reorganized as a subchapter "C" corporation to be issued to the holders upon request and the concurrent return by such holders of the notes previously issued to them by the Issuer that was so reorganized as a "C" corporation;
(2)
cause such Restricted Entity or Restricted Subsidiary or subchapter "C" corporation to execute and deliver to the trustee, (a) an assumption agreement in the form of Annex 1 to the applicable Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (under which such Restricted Entity, Restricted Subsidiary or subchapter "C" corporation will grant a security interest to the trustee in those of its assets described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), and (b) such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements as are necessary to perfect the trustee's security interest in such assets;

(3)
in the event such Restricted Entity, Restricted Subsidiary or subchapter "C" corporation owns real property that (i) is contiguous to any real property included in the Collateral (other than a Golf Course Home) or (ii) has a fair market value in excess of $5.0 million in the aggregate or $2.5 million individually, cause such Restricted Entity or subchapter "C" corporation to execute and deliver to the trustee:

(a)
a deed of trust, substantially in the form of the Deeds of Trust (with such modifications as are necessary to comply with applicable law) (under which such

175


(4)
promptly pledge, or cause to be pledged, to the trustee (i) all of the outstanding Capital Stock of such entity or subchapter "C" corporation owned by any Issuer, Restricted Entity or Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) all of the outstanding Capital Stock owned by such Restricted Entity or subchapter "C" corporation, to secure such Issuer's obligations under the indenture and the notes or such Restricted Entity's or Restricted Subsidiary's Guarantee obligations under the applicable Collateral and Security Agreement, as the case may be;

(5)
promptly take, and cause such Restricted Entity, Restricted Subsidiary or subchapter "C" corporation and each other Restricted Entity and Restricted Subsidiary to take all action necessary or, in the opinion of the trustee, desirable to perfect and protect the security interests intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, as modified under this paragraph; and

(6)
promptly deliver to the trustee such opinions of counsel, if any, as the trustee may reasonably require with respect to the foregoing (including opinions as to enforceability and perfection of security interests).

        Concurrently with the acquisition by Wynn Las Vegas, any Restricted Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas of any assets or property (other than a Restricted Entity or a Subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas), to the extent not prohibited by Gaming Authorities or applicable Gaming Laws and subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause the applicable Restricted Entity to:

(1)
in the case of the acquisition of personal property with an aggregate fair market value in excess of $50,000 for all such acquired personal property, execute and deliver to the trustee such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements as are necessary or, in the opinion of the trustee, desirable to perfect and protect the trustee's security interest in such assets or property;

(2)
in the case of the acquisition of real property, that (i) is contiguous to any real property included in the Collateral (other than a Golf Course Home) or (ii) has a fair market value in excess of $5.0 million in the aggregate or $2.5 million individually, execute and deliver to the trustee:

(a)
a deed of trust, substantially in the form of the Deeds of Trust (with such modifications as are necessary to comply with applicable law) (under which Wynn Las Vegas or such Restricted Entity or Restricted Subsidiary will grant a security interest to the trustee in such real property and any related fixtures), and

176


(3)
in the case of the acquisition of personal property or real property subject to clauses (1) and (2) above, as applicable, promptly deliver to the trustee such opinions of counsel, if any, as the trustee may reasonably require with respect to the foregoing (including opinions as to enforceability and perfection of security interests).

        Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will, and Wynn Las Vegas will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver such additional instruments, certificates or documents, and take all such actions as may be reasonably required from time to time in order to:

(1)
carry out more effectively the purposes of the Collateral Documents;

(2)
create, grant, perfect and maintain the validity, effectiveness and priority of any of the Collateral Documents and the Liens created, or intended to be created, by the Collateral Documents; and

(3)
ensure that any of the rights granted or intended to be granted to the trustee or any holder under the Collateral Documents or under any other instrument executed in connection therewith or granted to Wynn Las Vegas or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or to any Restricted Entity under the Collateral Documents or under any other instrument executed in connection therewith are protected and enforced.

Upon the exercise by the trustee or any holder of any power, right, privilege or remedy under the indenture or any of the Collateral Documents which requires any consent, approval, recording, qualification or authorization of any governmental authority (including any Gaming Authority), Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will, and will cause Wynn Resorts, Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Subsidiary to, and Wynn Las Vegas will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver all applications, certifications, instruments and other documents and papers that may be required from Wynn Resorts, any Restricted Entity Wynn Las Vegas or any Restricted Subsidiary for such governmental consent, approval, recording, qualification or authorization.

        Wynn Las Vegas and the Restricted Entities will not, and Wynn Las Vegas will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any holder of notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the indenture, the notes or the Collateral Documents unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all holders of notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

        Under the terms of the Wynn Resorts Agreement, Wynn Resorts will agree that it will not:

(1)
incur Indebtedness in excess of $10.0 million in the aggregate (other than Project Related Indebtedness) or guarantee the Indebtedness of any of its Affiliates, unless:

(a)
Wynn Resorts concurrently becomes the Parent Guarantor of the notes, and

177


(2)
grant any security interests in any of its assets or properties (other than a security interest in favor of the trustee for the benefit of the noteholders and security interests granted in Excluded Project Assets or assets or properties that individually or in the aggregate have a fair market value of less than $10.0 million) in favor of any Person to secure (i) any Indebtedness of any of its Affiliates, or (ii) any Guarantee by Wynn Resorts of Indebtedness of any of its Affiliates, unless:

(a)
Wynn Resorts concurrently grants a security interest in those assets or properties in favor of the trustee to secure the guarantee given by Wynn Resorts under clause (1) above or, if no such guarantee has been given, to secure the notes, and

(b)
such security interest ranks senior to or is pari passu with the security interest granted by Wynn Resorts in respect of the Affiliate's Indebtedness or its guarantee of the Affiliate's Indebtedness, as the case may be.

        However, the restrictions contained in clauses (1) and (2) of the immediately preceding paragraph will cease to apply to Wynn Resorts and any Parent Guarantee or Parent Security Agreement will be automatically released, at such time as either:

(1)
if:

(a)
the Project is Operating,

(b)
no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing immediately prior to or after giving effect to such release,

(c)
both immediately prior to such release and after giving pro forma effect to that release (as if, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, such release had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period):

(i)
the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of the Issuers and their Restricted Subsidiaries for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of Wynn Las Vegas ending immediately prior to the release date is 3.0 to 1.0 or less, and

(ii)
the senior secured long-term Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is rated BB+ or higher by S&P and Ba1 or higher by Moody's,

(d)
the lenders under the Credit Agreement concurrently release the Guarantee and/or security interests granted by Wynn Resorts in their favor, and

(e)
Wynn Resorts delivers an officers' certificate (including supporting calculations in reasonable detail) to the trustee confirming that the conditions in (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this clause (1) have been satisfied, or
(2)
if:

(a)
no Default or Event of Default exists or is continuing immediately prior to or after giving effect to that release,

(b)
both the lenders under the Credit Agreement and the Person whose Indebtedness Wynn Resorts guaranteed or granted security interest to secure (thereby triggering Wynn Resorts' obligations to enter into the Parent Guarantee or the Parent Security Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to the covenant captioned "—Restrictions on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Guarantees by Wynn Resorts") concurrently release

178


        Notwithstanding the provisions of this covenant, in no event shall Wynn Resorts be required, by reason of granting the Parent Guarantee or any security interest pursuant to this covenant, to become a Restricted Entity.

        Wynn Capital will not hold any material assets, incur any Indebtedness, become liable for any obligations, engage in any business activities or have any Subsidiaries; provided that Wynn Capital may be a co-obligor with respect to Indebtedness if Wynn Las Vegas is a primary obligor of such Indebtedness and the net proceeds of such Indebtedness are received by Wynn Las Vegas or one or more of Wynn Las Vegas' Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries other than Wynn Capital.

        Whether or not required by the Commission, so long as any notes are outstanding, the Issuers will furnish to the holders of notes, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and regulations:

(1)
all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if Wynn Las Vegas were required to file such Forms, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by Wynn Las Vegas' certified independent accountants; and

(2)
all current reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K if Wynn Las Vegas was required to file such reports.

        If Wynn Las Vegas has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraph will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of Wynn Las Vegas and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Wynn Las Vegas.

default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by either Issuer, any Restricted Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary (or the payment of which is guaranteed by any such entity) whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of the indenture, if that default:

(a)
is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a "Payment Default"); or

(b)
results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity,
(8)
failure by either Issuer, any Restricted Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary to pay final non-appealable judgments (not paid or covered by insurance as to which the relevant insurance company has not denied responsibility) aggregating in excess of $10.0 million, which judgments are not paid, bonded, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

180


(9)
any of the Collateral Documents shall cease, for any reason (other than pursuant to their terms), to be in full force and effect, or either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, Restricted Subsidiary or Guarantor or any Affiliate of any such entity shall so assert, or any security interest created, or purported to be created, by any of the Collateral Documents shall cease to be enforceable and of the same effect and priority purported to be created by the Collateral Documents;

(10)
any representation or warranty made or deemed made by either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Guarantor in any Collateral Document or that is contained in any certificate, document or financial or other statement furnished by it at any time under or in connection with any such Collateral Document shall prove to have been inaccurate in any material respect on or as of the date made or deemed made;

(11)
except as expressly provided therein, the Completion Guarantee, the Construction Contract Guarantee, any Guarantee issued by a Restricted Entity, a Restricted Subsidiary or any Guarantor under a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or the Parent Guarantee, if any, shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or the Completion Guarantor, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any such Person, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Guarantee;

(12)
certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in the indenture with respect to either Issuer, any Significant Restricted Entity, any group of Restricted Entities that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Restricted Entity, any Significant Restricted Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Restricted Subsidiary;

(13)
the Project has not achieved Completion on or before the Outside Completion Deadline;

(14)
after the Project is Operating, revocation, termination, suspension or other cessation of effectiveness of any Gaming License which results in the cessation or suspension of gaming operations at any Gaming Facility for a period of more than 90 consecutive days; or

(15)
if Wynn Las Vegas ever fails to own 100% of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of Wynn Capital.

        In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to either Issuer, any Significant Restricted Entity, any group of Restricted Entities that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Restricted Entity, any Significant Restricted Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Restricted Subsidiary, all outstanding notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding notes may declare all the notes to be due and payable immediately.

        Holders of the notes may not enforce the indenture or the notes except as provided in the indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and in the Collateral Documents. Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes may direct the trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The trustee may withhold from holders of the notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or premium, if any.

181



        The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding by notice to the trustee may on behalf of the holders of all of the notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the indenture, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the notes.

        In the case of any Event of Default occurring by reason of any willful action or inaction taken or not taken by or on behalf of either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary, any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Issuers would have had to pay if the Issuers then had elected to redeem the notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the indenture, an equivalent premium will also become and be immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the notes. If an Event of Default occurs prior to                , 2006, by reason of any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary, any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries with the intention of avoiding the prohibition on redemption of the notes prior to                , 2006, then the premium specified in the indenture will also become immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the notes.

        The Issuers are required to deliver to the trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the indenture and the Collateral Documents. Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuers are required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

        Under certain circumstances, the trustee may initiate a foreclosure against all or a portion of the Collateral if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. A foreclosure against the Collateral will be subject to certain notice and other procedural limitations under Gaming Laws and laws applicable to secured creditors generally, and to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements.

        If an Event of Default occurs, subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, the trustee, acting on behalf of the holders, can enforce its rights and remedies under the indenture and the Collateral Documents. These remedies include (1) commencing a judicial proceeding to seek monetary judgments against either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary and any Guarantor, (2) foreclosing on and selling the Collateral covered by the Deeds of Trust, and perfected Liens on personal property Collateral, and (3) enforcing the assignments of rents and leases.

        The Collateral Documents generally provide for the application of the internal laws of the State of New York, except to the extent that (1) the laws of Nevada are mandatory or (2) the validity or perfection of security interests in respect of certain items of Collateral (such as real property) is governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where that collateral is located. The indenture, the notes, any Guarantee of the notes and the Collateral Documents will provide, with certain exceptions, for the application of the internal laws of the State of New York. There is no certainty regarding whether New York or Nevada law would be applied by any

182


court with respect to the enforcement of remedies under the notes, the indenture, any Guarantee of the notes or the Collateral Documents.

        Due to restrictions on gaming activities in Nevada, the trustee may incur delays or possibly frustration in its effort to sell all or a portion of the Collateral. Operators of gaming facilities in Nevada are required to be licensed and are required by applicable Gaming Authorities to file applications, be investigated and be found suitable. Such requirements for governmental approval may delay or prevent a sale of the Collateral to a potential buyer at a foreclosure sale. This may effectively limit the number of potential bidders and may delay such sales, either of which could adversely affect the sale price of the Collateral. In addition, the disposition of Collateral consisting of gaming devices is subject to the prior approval of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board. Moreover, the gaming industry could become subject to different or additional regulations during the term of the notes, which could further adversely affect the practical rights and remedies that the trustee would have upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

        Before pursuing any foreclosures or otherwise executing on any of the Collateral, the trustee will need to consider the effect of Nevada law, which requires that where a debt is secured by real property, the debtor may require the creditor to exhaust its real property security before pursuing a judicial proceeding to obtain a monetary judgment against the debtor. If a creditor attempts to collect the indebtedness without first exercising its remedies under its deed of trust, the debtor could defend such action by requiring the creditor to first exhaust its rights under the deed of trust through statutory foreclosure proceedings. If, however, the debtor permitted the creditor to obtain a judgment without first exhausting remedies under the deed of trust, assuming such action was not stayed or dismissed before the entry of a final monetary judgment, then under Nevada law the security interest granted by the deed of trust would be released and discharged. This Nevada law is referred to as the "one action" rule.

        Real property pledged as security may be subject to known and unknown environmental risks or liabilities which can adversely affect the property's value. In addition, under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, as amended, known as CERCLA, for example, a secured lender may be held liable, in certain limited circumstances, for the costs of remediating a release of or preventing a threatened release of hazardous substances at a mortgaged property. There may be similar risks under state laws or common law theories.

        Under CERCLA, a person "who, without participating in the management of a... facility, holds indicia of ownership primarily to protect his security interest" is not a property owner, and thus not a responsible person under CERCLA. Lenders have seldom been held liable under CERCLA. The lenders who have been found liable have generally been found to have been sufficiently involved in the mortgagor's operations so that they have "participated in the management of the borrower." CERCLA does not specify the level of actual participation in management. CERCLA was amended in 1996 to provide certain "safe harbors" for foreclosing lenders. However, the courts have not yet issued any definitive interpretations of the extent of these safe harbors. There is currently no controlling authority on this matter.

183



        The trustee may appoint one or more collateral agents, who may be delegated any one or more of the duties or rights of the trustee under the Collateral Documents or which are specified in any Collateral Documents.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Equity holders

        No director, officer, employee, incorporator, organizer, equity holder or member of either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Guarantor under the notes, the indenture, the Collateral Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder by accepting a note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

        The Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have all of their obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding notes, all of the obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their Guarantees and all obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors discharged with respect to the Collateral Documents ("Legal Defeasance") except for:

(1)
the rights of holders of outstanding notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2)
the Issuers' obligations with respect to the notes concerning issuing temporary notes, registration of notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(3)
the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the trustee, and the Issuers' and the Guarantors' obligations in connection therewith; and

(4)
the Legal Defeasance provisions of the indenture.

        In addition, the Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have the obligations of the Issuers, the Restricted Entities, the Restricted Subsidiaries and any Guarantors released with respect to certain covenants that are described in the indenture ("Covenant Defeasance") and thereafter any omission to comply with those covenants will not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the notes. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under "—Events of Default and Remedies" will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the notes.

        In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(1)
the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding notes on the stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

184


(2)
in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that (a) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel will confirm that, the holders of the outstanding notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3)
in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuers have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that the holders of the outstanding notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4)
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing either:

(a)
on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit), or

(b)
in the case of Legal Defeasance, insofar as Events of Default of the type specified in clause (12) of the section above under the caption "Events of Default and Remedies" are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;
(5)
such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than the indenture) to which either Issuer, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Guarantor is a party or by which any such Person is bound;

(6)
in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that, assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Issuers or any Guarantor between the date of deposit and the 91st day following the deposit and assuming that no holder of notes is an "insider" of either Issuer under applicable bankruptcy law, after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally;

(7)
the Issuers must deliver to the trustee an officers' certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the holders of notes over the other creditors of the Issuers with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Issuers or others; and

(8)
the Issuers must deliver to the trustee an officers' certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Collateral Release Mechanics

        Under the terms of the Collateral Documents but subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, the trustee will determine the circumstances and manner in which the Collateral will be disposed of, including the determination of whether to release all or any portion of the Collateral from the security interests created by the Collateral Documents and

185



whether to foreclose on the Collateral following an Event of Default. The Collateral may be released from the security interests created by the Collateral Documents upon the request of the Issuers pursuant to an officers' certificate certifying that all terms for release and conditions precedent under the indenture and under any applicable Collateral Document have been met and specifying (1) the identity of the Collateral to be released and (2) the provisions of the indenture or the applicable Collateral Document which authorize that release.

        Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, the trustee will release (at the sole cost and expense of the Issuers):

(1)
all Collateral that is contributed, sold, leased, conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of (a) in an Asset Sale in accordance with the indenture and the Collateral Documents or (b) to an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the indenture and the Collateral Documents;

(2)
Collateral that is condemned, seized or taken by the power of eminent domain or otherwise confiscated pursuant to an Event of Loss; provided that the Net Loss Proceeds, if any, from the Event of Loss are or will be applied in accordance with the covenant described above under "—Repurchase at the Option of Holder—Events of Loss";

(3)
all Collateral (except as provided in the discharge and defeasance provisions of the indenture) upon discharge or defeasance of the indenture in accordance with the discharge and defeasance provisions of the indenture;

(4)
all Collateral upon the payment in full in cash of all Obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under the indenture, the notes and the Collateral Documents;

(5)
except as otherwise provided in the indenture, the Collateral Documents or the Wynn Resorts Agreement, Collateral of a Guarantor whose Guarantee is released pursuant to the terms of the indenture or the Wynn Resorts Agreement, as the case may be; and

(6)
Released Assets.

Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

        Except as provided in the next three succeeding paragraphs, the indenture, the notes or the Collateral Documents may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes), and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the indenture, the notes or the Collateral Documents may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes).

        Without the consent of each holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any notes held by a non-consenting holder):

(1)
reduce the principal amount of notes whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2)
reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the notes (other than provisions relating to the covenants described above under the caption "—Repurchase at the Option of Holders");

(3)
reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any note;

186


(4)
waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium on the notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the notes by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(5)
make any note payable in money other than that stated in the notes;

(6)
make any change in the provisions of the indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of holders of notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium on the notes;

(7)
waive a redemption payment with respect to any note (other than a payment required by one of the covenants described above under the caption "—Repurchase at the Option of Holders");

(8)
release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release assets or properties other than Non-Project Assets from the Collateral, in each case except in accordance with the provisions of the Collateral Documents;

(9)
release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Guarantee if the assets or properties of that Guarantor (a) constitute all or substantially all of the Collateral or (b) include assets or properties other than Non-Project Assets; and

(10)
make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

        Any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of any of the Collateral Documents relating to the covenant entitled "Liens" or any of the other security or collateral provisions of the indenture will require the consent of the holders of at least 85% in principal amount of the notes then outstanding.

        Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any holder, the Issuers, any Restricted Entity, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Guarantor, the Issuers and the trustee may amend or supplement the indenture, the notes or the Collateral Documents to:

(1)
cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

(2)
provide for uncertificated notes in addition to or in place of certificated notes;

(3)
provide for the assumption of the Issuers' obligations to holders of notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuers' assets;

(4)
make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the holders of notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the indenture of any such holder;

(5)
comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust indenture Act; or

(6)
enter into additional or supplemental Collateral Documents or guarantees or an intercreditor agreement with respect thereto.

187


Satisfaction and Discharge

        The indenture and the Collateral Documents will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all notes issued under the indenture, when:

(1)
either:

(a)
all notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed notes that have been replaced or paid and notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuers, have been delivered to the trustee for cancellation; or

(b)
all notes that have not been delivered to the trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuers have or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the notes not delivered to the trustee for cancellation for principal, premium and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;
(2)
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit or will occur as a result of the deposit and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which either Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which either Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

(3)
the Issuers or any Guarantor have paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by the Issuers under the indenture; and

(4)
the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the trustee under the indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuers must deliver an officers' certificate and an opinion of counsel to the trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Concerning the Trustee

        If the trustee becomes a creditor of either Issuer or any Guarantor, the indenture limits its right to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions. However, if it acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue or resign.

        The holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The indenture will provide that in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care of a prudent person in the conduct of his own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request of any holder of notes, unless that holder shall have offered to the trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

188



Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

        Except as described in the next paragraph, the notes will be issued in the form of one or more global senior notes (the "Global Notes"). The Global Notes will be deposited on the date of the closing of this offering with The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC (such nominee being referred to herein as the "Global Note Holder").

        Notes that are issued as described below under "—Certificated Notes" will be issued in the form of registered definitive certificates (the "Certificated Notes"). Upon the transfer of Certificated Notes, Certificated Notes may, unless all of the Global Notes have previously been exchanged for Certificated Notes, be exchanged for an interest in the Global Note representing the principal amount of notes being transferred, subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the note indenture.

        DTC has advised the Issuers that DTC is a limited-purpose trust company created to hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the "Participants") and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions in those securities between Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its Participants. The Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC's system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant, either directly or indirectly (collectively, the "Indirect Participants"). Persons who are not Participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through the Participants or the Indirect Participants. The ownership interests in, and transfers of ownership interests in, each security held by or on behalf of DTC are recorded on the records of the Participants and Indirect Participants.

        DTC has also advised the Issuers that, pursuant to procedures established by it:

(1)
upon deposit of the Global Notes, DTC will credit the accounts of Participants designated by the Issuers with portions of the principal amount of the Global Notes; and

(2)
ownership of these interests in the Global Notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership of these interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to the Participants) or by the Participants and the Indirect Participants (with respect to other owners of beneficial interest in the Global Notes).

        Prospective purchasers are advised that the laws of some states require that certain Persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities that they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a Global Note to such Persons will be limited to such extent.

        So long as the Global Note Holder is the registered owner of any notes, the Global Note Holder will be considered the sole holder under the indenture of any notes evidenced by the Global Notes. Beneficial owners of notes evidenced by the Global Notes will not be considered the owners or holders of the notes under the indenture for any purpose, including with respect to the giving of any directions, instructions or approvals to the trustee. Neither the Issuers nor the trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records of DTC or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of DTC relating to the notes.

        Payments in respect of the principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on a Global Note registered in the name of the Global Note Holder on the applicable record date will be payable by the trustee to or at the direction of the Global Note Holder in its capacity as the registered holder of the notes under the indenture. Under the terms of the indenture, the

189



Issuers and the trustee will treat the Persons in whose names the notes, including the Global Notes, are registered as the owners of the notes for the purpose of receiving payments and for all other purposes. Consequently, neither the Issuers, the trustee nor any agent of the Issuers or the trustee has or will have any responsibility or liability for:

(1)
any aspect of DTC's records or any Participant's or Indirect Participant's records relating to or payments made on account of any beneficial ownership interest in the Global Notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of DTC's records or any Participant's or Indirect Participant's records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in the Global Notes; or

(2)
any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or any of its Participants or Indirect Participants.

        DTC has advised the Issuers that its current practice, upon receipt of any payment in respect of securities such as the notes (including principal and interest), is to credit the accounts of the relevant Participants with the payment on the payment date unless DTC has reason to believe it will not receive payment on such payment date. Each relevant Participant is credited with an amount proportionate to its beneficial ownership of an interest in the principal amount of the relevant security as shown on the records of DTC. Payments by the Participants and the Indirect Participants to the beneficial owners of notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of the Participants or the Indirect Participants and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the trustee or the Issuers. Neither the Issuers nor the trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of its Participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the notes, and the Issuers and the trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes.

Certificated Notes

        If:

(1)
Wynn Las Vegas notifies the trustee in writing that DTC is no longer willing or able to act as a depository and Wynn Las Vegas is unable to locate a qualified successor within 90 days or

(2)
upon request to the trustee by any Person having a beneficial interest in a Global Note, following the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default,

then, upon surrender by the Global Note Holder of its Global Notes, notes in certificated form will be issued to each Person that the Global Note Holder and DTC identify as being the beneficial owner of the related notes. All such Certificated Notes will be subject to the legend requirements set forth in the indenture.

        Neither the Issuers nor the trustee will be liable for any delay by the Global Note Holder or DTC in identifying the beneficial owners of notes, and the Issuers and the trustee may conclusively rely on, and will be protected in relying on, instructions from the Global Note Holder or DTC for all purposes.

190

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS

        The following discussion summarizes the material terms of certain material agreements to which certain of our subsidiaries will be parties. However, this summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the relevant agreements described herein.

Credit Facilities

        Wynn Las Vegas will enter into credit facilities with a syndicate of lenders and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as sole administrative agent, Bank of America, N.A., as sole syndication agent, and Bear Stearns Corporate Lending, Inc., as documentation agent, as follows:

        When borrowings outstanding under our revolving facility equal or exceed $200 million, the lenders' agent will have the right to convert $100 to $400 million of the amounts outstanding under our revolving loan to term loans, on the same terms and conditions as those made under our delay draw term loan facility. The commitments of the lenders to make revolving loans to us will be permanently reduced by the amount of any revolving loans that are converted to term loans, and the outstanding loans under our delay draw term loan facility will be correspondingly increased.

        We will use the proceeds of the credit facilities to finance development and construction of Le Rêve and to meet our pre-opening expenses and debt service obligations. After Le Rêve opens, the restricted entities may use any remaining revolving credit availability for operating expenses and other general corporate purposes.

        Subject to certain exceptions, amounts borrowed under the credit facilities will bear interest, as follows:

        Wynn Las Vegas will be required to obtain interest rate protection through interest rate swaps, caps or other similar arrangements against increases in the interest rates with respect to not less than $125 million of term loan availability, and up to $200 million of revolving credit loans that are converted to term loans.

220



        Until Le Rêve opens, Wynn Las Vegas will pay, quarterly in arrears, 2.00% per annum on unborrowed availability under our revolving credit facility. The amount Wynn Las Vegas will pay will be calculated on the daily average of the unborrowed availability under the revolving credit facility.

        After Le Rêve opens, the annual fee Wynn Las Vegas will be required to pay for unborrowed amounts, if any, under our revolving credit facility will be determined by a grid based on our leverage ratio. For unborrowed amounts under our delay draw term loan facility, Wynn Las Vegas will pay, quarterly in arrears, 2.50% per annum from the closing date until December 31, 2002, 3.00% per annum from January 1, 2003 to June 30, 2003 and after June 30, 2003, 4.00% per annum, in each case, calculated based on the daily average of the unborrowed amounts under our delay draw term loan facility.

        A special purpose subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, formed with the intention of being bankruptcy-remote, will be providing a $50 million completion guarantee in favor of the lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of the second mortgage notes to secure completion in full of the construction and opening of Le Rêve, including all furniture, fixtures and equipment, the parking structure, the golf course and the availability of initial working capital. Wynn Resorts will contribute $50 million of the net proceeds of this offering to that subsidiary to support that subsidiary's obligations under the completion guarantee. These funds will be deposited into a collateral account to be held in cash or short-term highly-rated securities, and pledged to the senior lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of the second mortgage notes as security for the completion guarantee. Pursuant to the disbursement agreement, these funds will become available to us on a gradual basis to apply to the costs of the project only after fifty percent of the Le Rêve construction work has been completed. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under our credit facilities or the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the lenders under our credit facilities or, if no amounts are outstanding under our credit facilities, the holders of the second mortgage notes, will be permitted to exercise remedies against such sums and apply such sums and apply such sums against the obligations under their respective documents. Upon the completion and opening of Le Rêve, any amounts remaining in this account will be released to Wynn Resorts.

        Under the credit facilities, subsidiaries and certain affiliates of Wynn Las Vegas will be considered restricted entities and will guarantee the obligations of Wynn Las Vegas under the credit facilities. In the event that Wynn Resorts provides guarantees of other specified indebtedness prior to meeting a prescribed leverage ratio and debt rating test, then Wynn Resorts will also be required to guarantee the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes, subject to certain limited exceptions. The obligations of each guarantor under its guarantee will be limited as necessary to reduce the risk that the guarantee would be treated as a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. Each guarantee of the obligations under the credit facilities will be a senior secured obligation of each guarantor, secured by a security interest in certain of the guarantors' existing and future assets, and will rank pari passu in right of payment with any existing and future senior indebtedness of the guarantors. In addition, each guarantee will rank senior in right of payment to all of the existing and future subordinated indebtedness of each guarantor.

        Subject to certain exceptions, compliance with all applicable laws, including gaming laws and regulations, and obtaining any necessary regulatory approvals, our obligations under the

221


credit facilities will be secured by first priority security interests (subject to permitted liens) in the following:

        If Wynn Resorts pledges assets to secure guarantees of other specified indebtedness prior to meeting prescribed leverage ratio and debt rating tests, then the credit facilities may be secured by liens of equal priority on the same Wynn Resorts assets. The security interests in these assets may be released if certain tests are met.

        Wynn Las Vegas' obligations under the credit facilities will not be secured by any interest in the secured account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes.

        Wynn Las Vegas will be required to make mandatory prepayments of indebtedness under the credit facilities from specified percentages, ranging from a specified percentage (not to exceed 50%) of capital contributions resulting from parent company equity issuances (except to pre-initial public offering members of Valvino) to 100% for asset sale and condemnation proceeds, of the net cash proceeds of equity offerings, debt offerings (other than those constituting permitted debt) and, subject to a reinvestment period, asset sale and insurance or

222


condemnation proceeds received by the restricted entities, in each case with specified exceptions. Wynn Las Vegas will also be required to make mandatory payments of indebtedness under the credit facilities from a percentage of our excess cash flow, initially 75%, and decreasing based on our leverage ratio to 50%, and then to be eliminated. Wynn Las Vegas will have the option to prepay all or any portion of the indebtedness under the credit facilities at any time without premium or penalty.

        The restricted entities will be required to comply with negative and affirmative covenants, including, without limitation, limitations on:

        Additionally, the restricted entities will be required to comply with certain financial ratios and other financial covenants such as:

        The conditions to all borrowings before final completion of Le Rêve will consist of those set forth under the disbursement agreement. See "Disbursement Agreement." Borrowings of revolving loans after final completion of Le Rêve will be subject to prior written notice of borrowing, the accuracy of representations and warranties, the absence of any default or event of default and certain other customary conditions to borrowing.

        The credit facilities will contain customary events of default, including the failure to make payments when due, defaults under other material agreements or instruments of indebtedness of specific amounts, loss of material licenses or permits (including gaming licenses), failure or inability to complete Le Rêve by the outside completion date (subject to

223


force majeure extension), loss of material contracts, noncompliance with covenants, material breaches of representations and warranties, bankruptcy, judgments in excess of specified amounts, ERISA, impairment of security interests in collateral, change of control and, prior to final completion of Le Rêve, specified events under the disbursement agreement, subject in some cases to applicable notice provisions and grace periods. See "Disbursement Agreement." Events of default will apply to the restricted entities and, in some cases, to Valvino and Wynn Resorts.

FF&E Facility

        Wynn Las Vegas has entered into an engagement letter with Bank of America, N.A., Banc of America Leasing & Capital LLC and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. for the provision of a proposed $178.5 million FF&E facility as part of the financing of Le Rêve. The FF&E facility is currently being syndicated. Obtaining the FF&E facility will be a condition to the consummation of this offering. However, the availability of these funds is subject to, among other things, negotiation and execution of definitive agreements. For more information, see "Use of Proceeds," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Aircraft Arrangements."

224




INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENTS

Project Lenders Intercreditor Agreement

        The project lenders intercreditor agreement will be entered into between the agent under our credit facilities and the trustee on behalf of the second mortgage note holders so as to implement the status of the second priority lien of the second mortgage notes with respect to all our assets and the assets pledged by the guarantors of the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes, other than the collateral securing the FF&E facility with respect to which the second mortgage note holders will have a third priority lien, except that the aircraft-related collateral will not secure the second mortgage notes or the indebtedness under the credit facilities. The following summary of the material provisions of the project lenders intercreditor agreement is not meant to be complete and you should review the project lenders intercreditor agreement for a complete statement of its terms and conditions, including the definitions of terms used below.

        The project lenders intercreditor agreement provides that, at any time that there is any outstanding indebtedness under the credit facilities:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the trustee shall have the right upon a default under the indenture governing the second mortgage notes:

225


        The project lenders intercreditor agreement provides that, at any time that there is any outstanding indebtedness under the credit facilities, the agent under our credit facilities shall have the right to manage, perform and enforce the terms of the security documents evidencing the liens in favor of the lenders under the credit facilities. Such enforcement actions may include:

        Under the project lenders intercreditor agreement, the second mortgage note holders have agreed that from and after the first funding under the credit facilities, the lenders thereunder shall have the right to waive defaults and effect amendments under the disbursement agreement and the security documents. Any such waivers or amendments, once approved by the lenders under our credit facilities shall become automatically effective with respect to the second mortgage notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except with respect to the phase II land and the golf course parcel and related collateral, any such waiver or amendment approved by the lenders under the credit facilities shall not be permitted to effect a release of liens on the collateral or modify any provisions of the indenture governing the

226


second mortgage notes without the consent of the trustee. The agent under our credit facilities further shall have the authority to effect certain amendments regarding the scope of the project without the consent of the trustee or the FF&E lenders. See "Disbursement Agreement."

        The project lenders intercreditor agreement further provides that in any bankruptcy proceeding including Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Capital or any of the guarantors as debtor, the trustee and the second mortgage note holders shall not:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the trustee and the second mortgage note holders:

227


        Under the project lenders intercreditor agreement, the second mortgage note holders waive each of the following:

        The project lenders intercreditor agreement provides that the lenders under the credit facilities and the second mortgage note holders each shall be responsible for keeping themselves informed of the financial condition of Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Capital and all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the credit facilities or the second mortgage notes, and neither the agent under our credit facilities nor the trustee shall have any responsibility to advise the other (or the members of the other's lending group) of such information or circumstances.

        If the indebtedness under the credit facilities is refinanced in accordance with the terms thereof, the intercreditor arrangements described above shall apply to the replacement debt as well, and the trustee shall execute such documentation as reasonably may be requested to effect such arrangements.

228


FF&E Intercreditor Agreement

        Pursuant to the FF&E intercreditor agreement, the bank agent on behalf of the lenders under the credit facilities, the trustee on behalf of the second mortgage note holders, and the FF&E agent on behalf of the FF&E lenders agree to various concepts concerning the relative rights and obligations of such lenders. The following summary of the material provisions of the FF&E intercreditor agreement is not meant to be complete and you should review the FF&E intercreditor agreement for a complete statement of its terms and conditions, including the definitions of terms used below. The FF&E intercreditor agreement focuses in particular on the exercise of remedies in respect of the furniture, fixtures, equipment and aircraft financed under the FF&E facility, referred to as the FF&E collateral, and includes the following material provisions:

Lien Priorities.

        Under the FF&E intercreditor agreement, the FF&E agent, the bank agent and the trustee acknowledge and agree to the following lien priorities with respect to the collateral from and after the initial disbursement of loans under the FF&E facility other than the disbursement in respect of the refinancing of the aircraft:

        In addition, each party has agreed not to challenge the other's liens.

Standstill Period.

        Should an event of default occur under the FF&E facility (i.e., after expiration of any applicable cure period afforded to us), then subject to certain limitations, the delivery of notice to such effect to the agent under our credit facilities and to the trustee shall commence a standstill period of 30 days, referred to as the "standstill period". The bank agent, or the trustee, if there is no outstanding bank debt at the time of the event of default, shall have the right to extend the standstill period for 30 days, if the event of default occurs before completion of Le Rêve, or 15 days, if the event of default occurs before completion of Le Rêve, so long as all interest, fees, indemnities and expenses of the FF&E lenders have been paid current.

        Subject to certain limitations, exceptions and exclusions, the FF&E intercreditor agreement provides that, unless otherwise agreed by the bank agent, or, if there is no indebtedness outstanding under the credit facilities, by the trustee, the FF&E lenders will not accelerate the FF&E facility, exercise any other remedies or terminate their lending commitment until after the expiration of the standstill period, as so extended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the FF&E lenders shall be permitted to exercise remedies against Wynn Las

229



Vegas, Wynn Capital and the FF&E collateral if a bankruptcy proceeding has been initiated by or against against Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Capital or the guarantors.

        If during the standstill period, as extended, all defaults under the FF&E facility are cured or waived to the satisfaction of the FF&E lenders and all defaults under the credit facilities are cured or waived to the satisfaction of the bank agent and the bank agent notifies the FF&E lenders that it has elected to reinstate the credit facilities and recommence funding under the credit facilities in accordance with the terms of the credit facilities, then the FF&E lenders also must reinstate the FF&E facility and recommence funding under the FF&E facility in accordance with the terms of the FF&E facility. The foregoing standstill provisions shall apply only to the first event of default that occurs during the period prior to completion of the project and the first event of default that occurs during the period after completion of the project.

        Under the FF&E intercreditor agreement, the bank agent and the trustee have the right to obtain the release of the lien of the FF&E lenders upon the FF&E collateral, other than the aircraft collateral, by paying off all indebtedness under the FF&E facility other than the portion of such indebtedness allocable to the aircraft collateral. Any such payment must include payment of all such amounts in full, including LIBOR breakage charges (if applicable), provided that such payment shall not include any prepayment premiums or like charges payable under the terms of the FF&E facility.

Provisions Relating To Junior Liens On The FF&E Collateral.

        The FF&E intercreditor agreement includes the following provisions which apply to the liens of the lenders under the credit facilities and the second mortgage note holders on the FF&E collateral:

        Until and unless the indebtedness under the FF&E facility (other than the portion thereof allocable to the aircraft collateral) is paid in full as described under the subheading Payoff Of Debt Allocable To FF&E Collateral, And Release Of FF&E lenders Lien On FF&E Collateral above, the bank agent and the trustee shall not be permitted to exercise any remedies with respect to the FF&E collateral following a default under the credit facilities or indenture governing the second mortgage notes without the prior consent of the FF&E lenders. In particular, neither the bank agent nor the trustee will have the right to commence foreclosure proceedings against all or any portion of the FF&E collateral, or take other actions with respect to the FF&E collateral, without the written consent of the FF&E lenders.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, under the FF&E intercreditor agreement each of the bank agent and the trustee, subject to terms of the project lenders intercreditor agreement, have the right, subject to certain limitations, upon a default under the credit facilities or the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, as the case may be:

230


        In any bankruptcy proceeding of Wynn Las Vegas, Wynn Capital or any of the guarantors, as debtor, the FF&E intercreditor agreement prohibits the bank agent and the trustee, in their capacities as junior lienholders on the FF&E collateral, from:

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the bank agent and the trustee shall not be in any respect restricted in voting any unsecured claims or claims secured by their collateral (other than their junior liens on the FF&E collateral) based upon the indebtedness owed on the credit facilities or the second mortgage notes, as applicable.

        Under the FF&E intercreditor agreement, each of the bank agent and the trustee waive each of the following with respect to their junior liens on the FF&E collateral:

231


        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, the FF&E intercreditor agreement provides that these limitations apply to the bank agent, the lenders under the credit facilities, the trustee and the second mortgage note holders solely in their respective capacities as holders of liens secured by the FF&E collateral. Nothing in the FF&E intercreditor agreement prevents or precludes the bank agent, the lenders under the credit facilities, the trustee or the second mortgage note holders from taking any action or asserting rights or claims which such parties may be entitled to take or assert in any other capacity, including as holders of unsecured claims against us or as lenders secured by collateral other than the FF&E collateral.

Cooperation with Foreclosure Purchaser.

        The FF&E intercreditor agreement requires the bank agent and the trustee to cooperate with any person or entity that acquires the FF&E collateral in a foreclosure or other sale proceeding to remove the FF&E collateral from the project. After any such foreclosure proceeding and the expiration of certain specified time periods, pending such removal by such purchaser, the bank agent and the trustee may remove such FF&E collateral and insure and store the same at their cost for the purchaser. Such purchaser shall be required to pay the costs of such storage and insurance from and after the expiration of a specified time period. The FF&E intercreditor agreement provides that such actions are not intended to prevent the lenders under our credit facilities or the second mortgage note holders from foreclosing on their collateral, other than the FF&E collateral.

Insurance Proceeds.

        Prior to completion of Le Rêve, the FF&E intercreditor agreement requires all casualty insurance proceeds to be used to repair the damaged property to the extent provided in the disbursement agreement. Subsequent to completion of the project, our right to use casualty insurance proceeds to rebuild shall be subject to the terms of the credit facilities and the indenture governing the second mortgage notes.

        If we are not permitted to use the proceeds for rebuilding (whether before or after completion), then the FF&E intercreditor agreement provides that the proceeds shall be allocated between the FF&E collateral and the other collateral securing the credit facilities and the second mortgage notes as follows:

232


        Any amounts so allocated shall be applied to reduce the indebtedness secured by such collateral, in order of priority.

Right to Remove FF&E Collateral.

        After the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the FF&E facility, pursuant to the FF&E intercreditor agreement, the FF&E lenders have the following rights, subject to the limitations on exercise of remedies applicable during a standstill period:

Information Regarding Company.

        Under the FF&E intercreditor agreement, the FF&E lenders, the lenders under the credit facilities and the second mortgage note holders each are responsible for keeping themselves informed of our financial condition and all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the respective debts owed to each of them. None of the bank agent, the FF&E agent or the trustee shall have any responsibility to advise any of the others (or the members of the others' lending groups) of such information or circumstances.

Intercreditor Arrangements Also Applicable To Refinancing.

        The FF&E intercreditor agreement provides that if the indebtedness under the FF&E facility is refinanced in accordance with the indenture governing the second mortgage notes and with the consent of the bank agent, the intercreditor arrangements described above shall apply to the replacement debt as well, and the bank agent and the trustee shall execute such documentation as reasonably may be requested to effect such arrangements.

233



DISBURSEMENT AGREEMENT

        Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital will enter into a disbursement agreement with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as the bank agent, [                          ], as the trustee, [                          ], as the FF&E agent, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as the disbursement agent. The following summary of the material provisions of the disbursement agreement is not meant to be complete and you should review the disbursement agreement for a complete statement of its terms and conditions, including the definitions of terms used below.

        The disbursement agreement will set forth our material obligations to construct and complete Le Rêve and will establish a line item budget and a schedule for construction of Le Rêve. The disbursement agreement also will establish the conditions to, and the relative sequencing of, the making of disbursements from the proceeds of the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage notes, and will establish the obligations of the bank agent and the FF&E agent to make disbursements under the credit facilities and the FF&E facility and the obligation of the trustee to release funds from the second mortgage notes proceeds account upon satisfaction of such conditions. The disbursement agreement further will set forth the mechanics for approving change orders and amendments to the project budget and the schedule for the construction period. Finally, the disbursement agreement will include certain representations, warranties, covenants and events of default that are common to the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and second mortgage notes.

        Under the disbursement agreement, we will only be permitted to use the proceeds of the credit facilities, the FF&E facility and the second mortgage notes to pay for project costs in the budget.

        We expect to commence construction of Le Rêve in September 2002, and we have incurred, and prior to the initial disbursement of debt proceeds will continue to incur, significant costs in connection with Le Rêve. Prior to borrowing any amounts under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility or receiving any disbursements from the secured account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes, we will be required to use a portion of the proceeds of Wynn Resorts' offering of common stock, and our other available funds, to commence construction of Le Rêve. Pursuant to the disbursement agreement, as a condition to borrowing under the credit facilities or the FF&E facility or receiving disbursements from the secured account, we will be required to submit evidence acceptable to the construction consultant that the construction of Le Rêve has been completed to that point in accordance with our plans and specifications, on budget and on schedule.

        The disbursement agreement will set forth the sequencing order in which funds from the various sources will be made available to us. Under the disbursement agreement, we will pay for construction costs and financing costs (including interest during construction):

234


        With respect to the costs of acquiring and installing furniture, fixtures and equipment to be financed by the FF&E facility referred to as the FF&E collateral, we will be able to obtain borrowings under the FF&E facility to cover 75% of the cost of such FF&E collateral as and when necessary to pay for such items. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except for the amounts required to refinance the purchase of the airplane, the FF&E lenders shall not be required to advance funds for acquiring or installing FF&E collateral until after exhaustion of the equity proceeds and the proceeds from the issuance of the second mortgage notes. Except with regards to the airplane, to the extent that funding is required for FF&E collateral in advance of the exhaustion of the second mortgage notes proceeds, such funding will be achieved through draws on the equity proceeds and the second mortgage notes proceeds (and the bank agent and the trustee will receive a lien on the FF&E collateral so financed). Upon satisfaction of the conditions to the initial funding under the FF&E facility (and as a condition to the commencement of funding under the credit facilities), the FF&E facility will deposit into the company's funds account described below an amount equal to 75% of the amounts previously disbursed from the equity proceeds and the second mortgage notes proceeds to pay for such FF&E costs, and the bank agent and the trustee will subordinate their liens on the FF&E collateral to the lien of the FF&E lenders. The amounts so deposited into the company's funds account shall be drawn upon to pay (i) the budgeted costs and (ii) 25% of the cost to acquire and install FF&E collateral next subject to disbursement, until exhausted.

        Immediately prior to completion of the project, the agent under our FF&E facility shall obtain an appraisal of the fair market value of the FF&E collateral in its brand new condition (and without giving effect to depreciation caused by the fact that such FF&E may have been delivered and/or installed prior to such appraisal). If the aggregate amount of loans advanced under the FF&E facility is more than 75% of the fair market value of the FF&E collateral as determined by such appraisal, the lenders under our FF&E facility will be permitted to substitute any items of FF&E collateral for other eligible items of FF&E or, absent such other items, add items of FF&E to the FF&E collateral such that the aggregate amount of loans advanced under the FF&E facility shall equal 75% of the appraised value of the FF&E collateral.

        In order to implement the funding of disbursements, the disbursement agreement will call for the establishment of certain accounts, each of which will, subject to certain exceptions, be pledged to the lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of second mortgage notes, provided that the secured account holding the proceeds of the second mortgage notes will be pledged to the second mortgage note holders only.

        Such accounts will include the following:

        There shall be deposited into the company's funds account:

235


        Subject to certain exceptions, amounts on deposit in the company's funds account shall, from time to time:

        Investment income from permitted investments on amounts on deposit in the company's funds account shall be deposited at all times therein until applied as set forth in the disbursement agreement.

        The net proceeds of the second mortgage notes will be deposited into the second mortgage notes proceeds account. Amounts on deposit in the second mortgage notes proceeds account shall be held in escrow and invested in permitted investments by the disbursement agent until transferred, from time to time, by the disbursement agent to the disbursement account for the payment of the costs set forth in the budget. Investment income from amounts on deposit in the second mortgage notes proceeds account shall be deposited therein until applied as set forth in the disbursement agreement.

        There shall be deposited in the disbursement account all funds advanced from time to time by the lenders under the credit facilities, all funds advanced from time to time by the FF&E lenders, and all funds withdrawn by the disbursement agent from the company's funds account and the second mortgage notes proceeds account. Subject to certain exceptions, amounts on deposit in the disbursement account shall be applied to pay project costs and/or transferred by the disbursement agent to the cash management account or the interest payment account.

        On the closing date, an agreed upon amount shall be deposited into the cash management account. Subject to certain exceptions, Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital shall be permitted from time to time to draw checks on and otherwise withdraw amounts on deposit in the cash management account to pay costs set forth in the budget that are then due and payable. Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital shall be permitted from time to time to

236


request advances to replenish amounts drawn from, and/or to increase the amount on deposit in, the cash management account by satisfying the conditions precedent set forth in the disbursement agreement (unless such conditions precedent are waived) and by delivering certificates, invoices and other items demonstrating that all previous withdrawals from the account have been applied to pay costs in accordance with the project budget. The balance in the cash management account initially will not be allowed to exceed a specified amount, provided that this limit on amounts on deposit in the account may be increased from time to time to an amount mutually agreed upon by Wynn Capital, Wynn Las Vegas and the agent under our credit facilities.

        On each advance date until the completion date, funds shall be withdrawn from the disbursement account and deposited in the interest payment account to the extent necessary to pay interest and fees under the credit facilities, the second mortgage notes and the FF&E facility due and payable on or after the requested advance date and prior to the next advance date. Amounts on deposit in the interest payment account shall be applied by the disbursement agent to pay interest and fees under the credit facilities, the second mortgage notes and the FF&E facility, in each case, on the dates that such amounts become due and payable.

        There shall be deposited in the operating account all revenues received by Wynn Las Vegas or Wynn Capital as a consequence of sales of goods or rendering of services in the ordinary course of business prior to the completion date. In addition, there shall be deposited in the operating account funds transferred from the company's funds account to pay operating costs prior the completion date. Subject to the disbursement agent's rights upon the occurrence of an event of default, Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Capital shall be permitted from time to time to draw checks on and otherwise withdraw amounts on deposit in the operating account to pay due and payable operating costs. Until the opening date, if the amounts on deposit in the operating account exceed $100,000, such excess shall be withdrawn and deposited in the company's funds account. The foregoing limit on amounts on deposit in the operating account shall be increased upon opening to an amount mutually agreed upon by Wynn Capital, Wynn Las Vegas and the agent under our credit facilities.

        A special purpose subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, formed with the intention of being bankruptcy-remote, will be providing a $50 million completion guarantee in favor of the lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of the second mortgage notes to secure completion in full of the construction and opening of Le Rêve, including all furniture, fixtures and equipment, the parking structure, the golf course and the availability of initial working capital. Wynn Resorts will contribute $50 million of the net proceeds of this offering to that subsidiary to support that subsidiary's obligations under the completion guarantee. These funds will be deposited into a collateral account to be held in cash or short-term highly-rated securities, and pledged to the senior lenders under the credit facilities and the holders of the second mortgage notes as security for the completion guarantee. Pursuant to the disbursement agreement, these funds will become available to us on a gradual basis to apply to the costs of the project only after fifty percent of the Le Rêve construction work has been completed. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under our credit facilities or the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the lenders under our credit facilities or, if

237


no amounts are outstanding under our credit facilities, the holders of the second mortgage notes, will be permitted to exercise remedies against such sums and apply such sums and apply such sums against the obligations under their respective documents. Upon the completion and opening of Le Rêve, any amounts remaining in this account will be released to Wynn Resorts.

        As security for Wynn Las Vegas' obligation to complete the project, Wynn Resorts will also deposit $30 million of the proceeds of its offering of common stock into the liquidity reserve account. Until the completion and opening of Le Rêve, amounts on deposit in the liquidity reserve account shall, from time to time, be transferred to the company's funds account for application to pay budgeted costs in accordance with the disbursement agreement. Following the completion and opening of Le Rêve, these funds will be available to meet our debt service needs in connection with the operation of Le Rêve. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the credit facilities or the indenture governing the second mortgage notes, the lenders under our credit facilities or, if no amounts are outstanding under our credit facilities, the second mortgage note holders, will be permitted to exercise remedies against such sums and apply such sums against the obligations under their respective debt documents. At such time as Wynn Las Vegas has met prescribed cash flow tests for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters after the opening of Le Rêve, we will use any remaining funds to reduce the outstanding amounts under our revolving credit facility, but without reducing the revolving credit facility commitment.

        We will be required to satisfy conditions precedent before we are permitted to receive funds from the disbursement accounts. These conditions will include, among others:

238


From the initial funding of the second mortgage notes through exhaustion of the amounts on deposit in the second mortgage notes proceeds account, the trustee (acting under the indenture) shall be entitled to waive the conditions precedent to advances under the disbursement agreement with respect to advances from the second mortgage notes proceeds account and the company's funds account without bank agent's or the FF&E agent's consent. After exhaustion of the amounts on deposit in the second mortgage note proceeds account, the bank agent (acting under the credit facilities agreement) shall be entitled to waive the conditions precedent to advances under the disbursement agreement with respect to advances under the credit facilities and from the company's funds account without the trustee's or the FF&E agent's consent. The FF&E agent (acting under the FF&E facility agreement) shall at all times be entitled to waive the conditions precedent to advances under the disbursement agreement with respect to advances under the FF&E facility without the bank agent's or the trustee's consent.

        The disbursement agreement will contain guidelines for the construction consultant and the disbursement agent to permit amendments to the budget and the plans and specifications. These conditions will generally be the same as conditions to disbursement that relate to the project and the budget.

239


        The guidelines will only permit increases to any line item category to the extent of the sum of:

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, increases to any line item category as a result of changes in the scope of the project shall be funded only by additional equity contributed to us by our stockholders.

        We may, from time to time, amend the project schedule to extend the completion date, but not beyond August 31, 2005, by delivering to the disbursement agent a certificate describing the amendment and complying with the conditions set forth above with respect to the changes in the project budget that will result from the extension of the completion date. We also have the ability to extend the completion date for a limited period beyond August 31, 2005 due to force majeure events.

        The disbursement agreement contains various affirmative covenants that we are obligated to comply with. Such covenants include the following:

240


        The disbursement agreement will also require us to comply with negative covenants. These covenants will limit, among other things, the restricted entities' ability to:

From and after the first funding under the credit facilities, the bank agent, without the consent of the trustee or the lenders under our FF&E facility, shall have the right to agree with Wynn

241



Las Vegas and Wynn Capital to reduce the scope of the project, so long as after giving effect to the amendment:

See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Offering and the Second Mortgage Notes—Because we have multiple lenders, holders of the second mortgage notes may be disadvantaged by actions taken by one or more of our other lenders" and "Intercreditor Agreements—Project Lenders Intercreditor Agreement."

        The disbursement agreement will provide that each of the following constitutes an "event of default" thereunder:

242


        Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the disbursement agreement, our lenders will be permitted to exercise remedies, including one or more of the following:

        Pursuant to the project lenders intercreditor agreement and subject to certain limitations, from and after the first funding under the credit facilities, the lenders under the credit facilities will have the right (without obtaining the holders of the second mortgage notes' consent) to waive certain defaults under the disbursement agreement. Except for the 20-acre parcel and the golf course parcel, any such waiver or amendment approved by the lenders under the credit facilities shall not be permitted to effect any release of liens on the collateral without the consent of the trustee. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Offering and the Second Mortgage Notes—Because we have multiple lenders, holders of the second mortgage notes may be disadvantaged by actions taken by one or more of our other lenders" and "Intercreditor Agreements—Project Lenders Intercreditor Agreement."

        The disbursement agreement will terminate on or about the date on which final completion occurs.

243




U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

General

        The following is a general discussion of certain United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the second mortgage notes by an investor who acquires beneficial ownership of a second mortgage note pursuant to this offer at the offering price. Those consequences will differ depending on whether the investor is a U.S. Holder or a Non-U.S. Holder.

        As used herein, a "U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of a second mortgage note who is for United States federal income tax purposes (1) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (2) a corporation created in or organized under the laws of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof; (3) an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (4) a trust if (A) the administration of the trust is subject to the primary supervision of a United States court and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (B) the trust was in existence on August 20, 1996, was treated as a United States person under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), in effect immediately prior to such date and has made a valid election to be treated as a United States person under the Code.

        As used herein, a "Non-U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of a second mortgage note that is not a U.S. Holder.

        If a partnership (including for this purpose any entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of the second mortgage notes, the treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. A holder of second mortgage notes that is a partnership and partners in such partnership should consult their tax advisors about the United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the second mortgage notes.

        This summary assumes that investors hold second mortgage notes as "capital assets" under the Code and does not discuss special situations, such as those of (1) holders who are broker-dealers, tax-exempt organizations, individual retirement accounts and other tax deferred accounts, financial institutions, partnerships or other passthrough entities, insurance companies, controlled foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies, foreign personal holding companies, or corporations that accumulate their earnings to avoid United Sates federal income tax; (2) certain former citizens or former long-term residents of the United States, or (3) persons holding second mortgage notes as part of a hedging or conversion transaction, a straddle, a constructive sale or synthetic securities transactions or that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, all of whom may be subject to tax rules that differ significantly from those summarized below. Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Code and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions thereunder as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be repealed, revoked, or modified, possibly with retroactive effect, so as to result in United States federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below. In addition, except as otherwise indicated, the following does not consider the effect of any applicable foreign, state, local or other tax laws, including those applicable to estate or gift tax.

        Prospective investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors with regard to the application of the tax considerations discussed below to their particular situations, as well as the application of any state, local, foreign or other tax laws, or subsequent revisions thereof.

244



United States Federal Income Taxation of U.S. Holders

        Interest on the second mortgage notes will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income from domestic sources at the time it is paid or accrued in accordance with the U.S. Holder's regular method of accounting for tax purposes.

        In the event of a change of control, the issuers will be required to offer to redeem all of the second mortgage notes, at 101% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, we have an option under specified circumstances related to the Issuer's gaming license described in "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Gaming Redemption" to redeem the second mortgage notes from certain holders at redemption prices specified elsewhere herein. Under Treasury Regulations, the possibility of the redemption of the second mortgage notes prior to maturity may be disregarded for purposes of determining the amount of interest or original issue discount income (or the timing of their recognition) if as of the date the second mortgage notes are issued, the likelihood of the payment is remote. We have determined, based on all of the facts and circumstances as of the date of issuance, that the likelihood of a change of control or a redemption related to Issuers' gaming license is remote and do not intend to treat such possibilities as affecting the yield to maturity of the second mortgage notes. Our determination that there is a remote likelihood of a change of control or a redemption related to Issuers' gaming license is binding on each U.S. Holder unless the holder explicitly discloses in a manner required by applicable Treasury Regulations that its determination is different from ours. Our determination is not, however, binding on the Internal Revenue Service, referred to as the IRS, and if the IRS were to successfully challenge this determination, a U.S. Holder might be required to accrue income on its notes in excess of stated interest.

        We may redeem up to 35% of the second mortgage notes prior to                , 2005 and may redeem the second mortgage notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after             , 2006, at redemption prices specified elsewhere herein plus accrued and unpaid stated interest, if any. The Treasury Regulations contain rules for determining the "maturity date" and the stated redemption price at maturity of an instrument that may be redeemed prior to its stated maturity date at the option of the issuer. Under such Treasury Regulations, solely for the purposes of the accrual of original issue discount, it is assumed that an issuer will exercise any option to redeem a debt instrument only if such exercise would lower the yield to maturity of the debt instrument. Because the exercise of such options would not lower the yield to maturity of the second mortgage notes, we believe that we will not be presumed under these rules to redeem the second mortgage notes prior to their stated maturity.

        U.S. Holders may wish to consult their own tax advisors regarding the treatment of such contingencies.

        Upon the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a second mortgage note, the holder will generally recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between (1) the amount of cash and the fair market value of other property received in exchange therefor and (2) the holder's adjusted tax basis in such second mortgage note. Amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the second mortgage notes will be treated as ordinary interest income. A holder's adjusted tax basis in a second mortgage note is equal to the purchase price paid by such holder increased by the amount of any

245


market discount previously included in income by such holder with respect to such second mortgage note and decreased by the amount of any amortizable bond premium applied to reduce interest on the second mortgage notes and by any payments received thereon.

        Except as discussed below with respect to market discount, gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of a second mortgage note will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of sale, exchange, retirement, or other taxable disposition, the second mortgage note has been held for more than 12 months. The maximum rate of tax on long-term capital gains with respect to second mortgage notes held by an individual is 20%. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

        A U.S. Holder receives a "market discount" if he/she purchases a second mortgage note for an amount below the issue price (i.e. the price at which a substantial amount of notes were sold to persons other than bond houses, brokers or similar persons, or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriter, placement agent, or wholesaler) on the date of purchase. Under the market discount rules, subject to a de minimis exception, a U.S. Holder is required to treat any partial principal payment on, or any gain on the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of, a second mortgage note as ordinary income to the extent of the accrued market discount that has not previously been included in income. In addition, a U.S. Holder that disposes of a note with market discount in certain otherwise nontaxable transactions must include accrued market discount as ordinary income as if such holder had sold the note at its then fair market value. Further, the U.S. Holder may be required to defer, until the maturity of the second mortgage note or its earlier disposition in a taxable transaction, the deduction of a portion of the interest expense on any indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry such second mortgage notes.

        Any market discount is considered to accrue ratably during the period from the date of acquisition to the maturity date of the second mortgage note, unless the U.S. Holder elects to accrue such discount on a constant interest rate method. If this election is made, the holder's basis in the second mortgage note will be increased to reflect the amount of income recognized and the rules described above regarding deferral of interest deductions will not apply. This election to include market discount in income currently, once made, applies to all market discount obligations acquired on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS.

        A U.S. Holder that purchased a second mortgage note for an amount in excess of the stated redemption price at maturity is considered to have purchased such second mortgage note with "amortizable bond premium." A U.S. Holder generally may elect to amortize such premium over the remaining term of the second mortgage note on a constant yield method as applied with respect to each accrual period of the second mortgage note, and allocated ratably to each day within an accrual period. As described above, the notes are subject to call provisions at our option at various times. A U.S. Holder will calculate the amortizable bond premium based on the amount payable at the applicable call date, but only if the use of the call date (in lieu of the stated maturity date) results in a smaller amortizable bond premium for the period ending on the call date. The amount amortized in any year will be treated as a reduction of the U.S. Holder's interest income from the second mortgage note. Bond premium on a second mortgage note held by a U.S. Holder that does not make an election to amortize will decrease the gain or increase the loss otherwise recognized upon disposition of the Note.

246


The election to amortize premium on a constant yield method, once made, applies to all debt obligations held or subsequently acquired by the electing U.S. Holder on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS.

        Backup withholding and information reporting requirements may apply to certain payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on a second mortgage note, and to the proceeds of the sale or redemption of the second mortgage note. We or our paying agent, as the case may be, are required to withhold from any payment that is subject to backup withholding tax if a U.S. Holder fails to furnish his taxpayer identification number, certify that such number is correct, certify that such holder is not subject to backup withholding or otherwise comply with the applicable backup withholding rules. Pursuant to recent tax legislation the rate of backup withholding tax was reduced to 30 percent on January 1, 2002 and will be reduced to 29 percent on January 1, 2004 and 28 percent on January 1, 2006. Unless extended by new legislation, however, the reduction in the rate of backup withholding tax will expire and the 31% backup withholding tax rate will be reinstated beginning January 1, 2011. Certain U.S. Holders, including all corporations, are not subject to backup withholding and information reporting.

United States Federal Income Taxation of Non-U.S. Holders

        This discussion assumes, based upon the description of the DTC's book-entry procedures discussed in the section entitled "Description of the Second Mortgage Notes—Book-Entry, Delivery and Form" that upon issuance and throughout the term, all the second mortgage notes will be in registered form within the meaning of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations. The payment to a Non-U.S. Holder of interest on the second mortgage note is not subject to United States federal withholding tax pursuant to the "portfolio interest exception," provided that (i) the Non-U.S. Holder (A) does not actually or constructively own 10% or more of our capital or profits interest and (B) is neither a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us within the meaning of the Code, nor a bank that received the second mortgage notes on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business; and (ii) either (A) the beneficial owner of the second mortgage notes certifies to us or the our paying agent, under penalties of perjury, that it is not a U.S. Holder and provides its name and address on Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or a suitable substitute form) or (B) a securities clearing organization, bank or other financial institution that holds the second mortgage notes on behalf of such Non-U.S. Holder in the ordinary course of its trade or business (a "financial institution") certifies under penalties of perjury that such a Form W-8BEN (or suitable substitute form) has been received from the beneficial owner by it or by a financial institution between it and the beneficial owner and furnishes the payor with a copy thereof.

        If a Non-U.S. Holder cannot satisfy the requirements of the portfolio interest exception described above, payments of interest made to such Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to a 30% withholding tax, unless the beneficial owner of the second mortgage note provides us or our paying agent, as the case may be, with a properly executed (i) Form W-8BEN (or a suitable substitute form) claiming an exemption from or reduction in the rate of withholding pursuant to a tax treaty or (ii) Form W-8ECI (or a suitable substitute form) providing a United States identification number and stating that interest paid on the second mortgage note is effectively connected with the beneficial owner's conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

247



        If a Non-U.S. Holder of a second mortgage note is engaged in a trade or business in the United States and interest on the second mortgage note is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business and, where an income tax treaty applies, attributable to an United States permanent establishment, such Non-U.S. Holder, will be subject to United States federal income tax on such interest, including original issue discount. In addition, if such Non-U.S. Holder is a foreign corporation, it may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% of its effectively connected earnings and profits for that taxable year, subject to adjustment, unless it qualifies for a lower rate under an applicable income tax treaty.

        A Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax on gain realized on a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a second mortgage note unless (1) the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the Non-U.S. Holder, and, where an income tax treaty applies, attributable to a United States permanent establishment or (2) in the case of a Non-U.S. Holder who is an individual, such holder is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are met.

        If a Non-U.S. Holder of a second mortgage note is engaged in the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, gain on the disposition of the second mortgage note that is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business and, where an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment, will be taxed on a net basis at applicable graduated individual or corporate rates. Effectively connected gain of a foreign corporation may, under certain circumstances, be subject as well to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30 percent or a lower applicable income tax treaty rate.

        Second mortgage notes held by an individual Non-U.S. Holder will not be included in such holder's gross estate for United States federal estate tax purposes if (a) the interest on the second mortgage notes qualifies for the "portfolio interest exemption" from United States federal income tax under the rules described above, or (b) they are excluded under an applicable treaty. The United States federal estate tax generally has been repealed for decedents dying in 2010. Unless extended by new legislation, however, the repeal expires and the United States federal estate tax is reinstated beginning January 1, 2011.

        We must report annually to the IRS and to each Non-U.S. Holder on Form 1042-S the amount of interest paid on a second mortgage note, regardless of whether withholding was required, and any tax withheld with respect to the interest. Under the provisions of an income tax treaty and other applicable agreements, copies of these information returns may be made available to the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides.

        Backup withholding is unlikely to apply to payments of principal or interest made by us or our paying agents to a Non-U.S. Holder if the holder is exempt from United States withholding tax on interest as described above in "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—United States Federal Income Taxation of Non-U.S. Holders—Payments of Interest."

        The payment of proceeds from the disposition of a second mortgage note effected by or through a United States office of a broker is also subject to both backup withholding and information reporting unless a Non-U.S. Holder provides the payor with such Non-U.S.

248



Holder's name and address and either certifies non-United States status or otherwise establishes an exemption. In general, backup withholding and information reporting will not apply to the payment of the proceeds of a sale of a second mortgage note by or through a foreign office of a broker. If, however, such broker is, for United States federal income tax purposes, a United States person, a controlled foreign corporation, a foreign person 50 percent or more of whose gross income is from a United States trade or business for a specified three-year period, or a foreign partnership that at any time during its tax year either is engaged in the conduct of a trade or business in the United States or has as partners one or more United States persons that, in the aggregate, hold more than 50 percent of the income or capital interest in the partnership, such payments will be subject to information reporting, but not backup withholding, unless such broker has documentary evidence in its records that the holder is a Non-U.S. Holder and certain other conditions are met, or the exemption is otherwise established.

        Pursuant to recent tax legislation the rate of backup withholding tax was reduced to 30 percent on January 1, 2002 and will be reduced to 29 percent on January 1, 2004 and 28 percent on January 1, 2006. Unless extended by new legislation, however, the reduction in the rate of backup withholding tax will expire and the 31 percent backup withholding tax rate will be reinstated beginning January 1, 2011. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or credit against the Non-U.S. Holder's United States federal income tax liability provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS.

        Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors in determining the tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the second mortgage notes, including the application to their particular situations of the United States federal income tax considerations discussed in this prospectus and the application of state, local, foreign or other tax laws.

UNDERWRITING

        Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, the underwriters named below, through their representatives Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein — Grantchester, Inc., have severally agreed to purchase from us the following respective principal amounts of the second mortgage notes listed opposite their name below at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the cover page of this prospectus:

        The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters to purchase the second mortgage notes offered hereby are subject to certain conditions precedent and that the underwriters will purchase all of the second mortgage notes offered by this prospectus if any of these second mortgage notes are purchased.

        We have been advised by the representatives of the underwriters that the underwriters propose to offer the second mortgage notes to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus and to dealers at a price that represents a concession not in excess of    % of the principal amount of the second mortgage notes. The underwriters may allow, and these dealers may re-allow, a concession of not more than    % of the principal amount of the second mortgage notes to other dealers. After the initial public offering, representatives of the underwriters may change the offering price and other selling terms.

        In addition, we estimate that our share of the total expenses of this offering, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $                  .

        We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against some specified types of liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of any of these liabilities.

        The representatives of the underwriters have advised us that the underwriters do not intend to confirm sales to any account over which they exercise discretionary authority. The second mortgage notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. The second mortgage notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or on any automated dealer quotation system. The underwriters may make a market in the second mortgage notes after completion of the offering, but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the second mortgage notes or that an active public market for the second mortgage notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the second mortgage notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the second mortgage notes may be adversely affected.

250



        In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell the second mortgage notes in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases to cover positions created by short sales and stabilizing transactions.

        Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater principal amount of second mortgage notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. The underwriters may close out any short position by purchasing second mortgage notes in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the second mortgage notes in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

        Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of the second mortgage notes made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

        The underwriters may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the other underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives of the underwriters have repurchased notes sold by or for the account of that underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

        Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions may have the effect of preventing or slowing a decline in the market price of the second mortgage notes. Additionally, these purchases, along with the imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the second mortgage notes. As a result, the price of the notes may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

        A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on Internet web sites maintained by one or more of the lead underwriters of this offering and may be made available on web sites maintained by other underwriters. The representatives may agree to allocate a number of second mortgage notes to underwriters for sale to their online brokerage account holders. The representatives may allocate the second mortgage notes to underwriters that may make Internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations. In addition, the second mortgage notes may be sold by the underwriters to securities dealers who may resell the second mortgage notes to online brokerage account holders. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on any underwriter's web site and any information contained in any other web site maintained by an underwriter is not part of the prospectus or the registration statement of which the related prospectus forms a part.

EXPERTS

        The financial statements of Valvino Lamore, LLC and subsidiaries (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and for the year ended December 31, 2001 and the period from inception (April 21, 2000) to December 31, 2000, included in this prospectus and the related financial statement schedule included elsewhere in the registration statement have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent auditors, as stated in their reports appearing herein and elsewhere in the registration statement, and have been so included in reliance upon the reports of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.


INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

        In May, 2002, Valvino decided to no longer engage Arthur Andersen LLP ("Andersen") as its independent public accountants. The reports of Andersen on the financial statements of Valvino for the past two fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. Through the present date, there have been no disagreements between Valvino and Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Andersen, would have caused Andersen to make reference to the subject matter thereof in its report on Valvino's financial statements for such periods. Through the present date, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

        Valvino named Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte & Touche") as its new independent accountants in May, 2002. Prior to their appointment as independent accountants, neither Valvino nor anyone acting on its behalf, consulted with Deloitte & Touche regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Valvino's financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Members of Valvino Lamore, LLC and Subsidiaries:

        We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Valvino Lamore, LLC and subsidiaries (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations, members' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2001 and for the period from inception (April 21, 2000) to December 31, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

        We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

        In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2001 and for the period from inception to December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Long-term Debt

        On June 15, 2000, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Stephen A. Wynn, for unsecured borrowings totaling $100 million with an original maturity date of June 15, 2002. The interest rate during the loan period was 7.9%, as defined in the loan agreement. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement dated October 3, 2000, $70 million of this loan was repaid on October 10, 2000. The remaining $30 million principal and $2.3 million accrued interest was converted to equity as a member contribution.

        On July 10, 2000, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as lead arranger, and Bankers Trust Company, as administrative agent, for a loan in the amount of $125 million with an original maturity date of July 10, 2001. These borrowings were used to make an equity distribution of approximately $110.5 million to Stephen A. Wynn. The interest during the loan period was 7.9%, as defined in the loan agreement. The loan was collateralized by certain real and personal property of the Company and by a guaranty from Stephen A. Wynn. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement dated October 3, 2000, this loan was repaid on October 10, 2000.

        The balance of long-term debt at December 31, 2001 totals approximately $291,000 net of the current portion of approximately $35,000. This represents a note payable related to the acquisition of a parcel of land in 1994. Both the land and related note payable were acquired as part of the acquisition of the Desert Inn Resort and Casino. The note carries an interest rate of 8% and provides for payments of principal and interest totaling $5,000 per month until February 2009.

6.
Employee Savings Plan

        The Company established a retirement savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code covering its non-union employees on July 27, 2000. The plan allows employees to defer, within prescribed limits, up to 18% of their income on a pre-tax basis through contributions to this plan. The Company matches the contributions, within prescribed limits, with an amount equal to 100% of the participant's initial 2% tax deferred contribution and 50% of the tax deferred contribution between 2% and 4% of the participant's compensation. The Company recorded charges for matching contributions of approximately $127,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 and $67,000 for the period from inception through December 31, 2000.

        Union employees are covered by various multi-employer pension plans. The Company recorded expenses of approximately $425,000 and $376,000 under such plans for the year ended December 31, 2001 and the period from inception through December 31, 2000, respectively. Information from the plans' sponsors is not available to permit the Company to determine its share of unfunded vested benefits, if any.

Earnings Per Share

        Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". SFAS No. 128 provides for the reporting of "basic", or undiluted earnings per share ("EPS"), and "diluted" EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the addition of potentially dilutive securities. At December 31, 2001 and 2000 and June 30, 2002, the Company has no potentially dilutive securities and has recorded net losses and accordingly, basic EPS is equal to diluted EPS.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

        The Nevada Revised Statutes provide that a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in the event an officer or director is made a party or threatened to be made a party to an action (other than an action brought by or on behalf of the corporation as discussed below) by reason of his or her official position with the corporation provided the director or officer (1) is not liable for the breach of any fiduciary duties as a director or officer involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law or (2) acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A corporation may indemnify its officers and directors against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in the event an officer or director is made a party or threatened to be made a party to an action by or on behalf of the corporation by reason of his or her official position with the corporation provided the director or officer (1) is not liable for the breach of any fiduciary duties as a director or officer involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the laws or (2) acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation. The Nevada Revised Statutes further provides that a corporation generally may not indemnify an officer or director if it is determined by a court that such officer or director is liable to the corporation or responsible for any amounts paid to the corporation as a settlement, unless a court also determines that the officer or director is entitled to indemnification in light of all of the relevant facts and circumstances. The Nevada Revised Statutes require a corporation to indemnify an officer or director to the extent he or she is successful on the merits or otherwise successfully defends the action.

        The Nevada Revised Statutes also provide that a limited liability company may indemnify its managers, members, employees and agents against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in the event a manager, member, employee or agent is made a party or threatened to

II-1



be made a party to an action (other than an action brought by or on behalf of the company as discussed below) by reason of his or her position with the company provided he or she acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the company and, with respect to any criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A limited liability company may indemnify its managers, members, employees and agent against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in the event a manager, member, employee or agent is made a party or threatened to be made a party to an action by or on behalf of the company by reason of his or her position with the company provided he or she acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the company. The Nevada Revised Statues further provide that a limited liability company generally may not indemnify any manager, member, employee or agent if it is determined by a court that he or she is liable to the company or responsible for any amounts paid to the company as a settlement, unless a court also determines that he or she is entitled to indemnification in light of all of the relevant facts and circumstances. The Nevada Revised Statutes require a limited liability company to indemnify a manager, member, employee or agent to the extent he or she is successful on the merits or otherwise successfully defends the action.

        Wynn Capital's bylaws provide that it will indemnify its directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Nevada law. These indemnification provisions and the indemnification agreements may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of Wynn Capital's officers and directors for liabilities, including reimbursement of expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which we refer to as the Securities Act. We have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification of directors or officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is against public policy and, therefore, such indemnification provisions may be unenforceable.

        Wynn Las Vegas' articles of organization, attached as Exhibit    hereto, and operating agreement, attached as Exhibit    hereto, will provide that it shall indemnify its managers and members to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law.

        The Underwriting Agreement, attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, provides for indemnification by the Underwriters of Wynn Resorts and its officers and directors for certain liabilities, including matters arising under the Securities Act.


Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

        The following is a summary of the transactions by the Registrants during the past three years involving sales of the Registrants' securities that were not registered under the Securities Act:

II-2


        None of the foregoing transactions involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering, and the Registrant believes that each transaction was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and, or Regulation D promulgated thereunder or Rule 701 pursuant to compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation as provided under Rule 701.

If a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

        The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
