due 2022. The notes will be issued at par. The notes will be offered
only to qualified institutional buyers and outside the U.S. in

Securities Act of 1933. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC plans to use the net

loan facilities and for general corporate purposes.
The notes will rank pari passu in right of payment with borrowings under

existing 7¾% First Mortgage Notes due 2020 (collectively, the “existing

will be guaranteed by certain of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC’s subsidiaries and
will be secured on an equal and ratable basis (with certain exceptions)
by a first priority lien on substantially all of the existing and future
assets of the issuers and guarantors, and, subject to prior approval
from the Nevada gaming authorities, a first priority lien on the equity
interests of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC, all of which is the same collateral
that secures borrowings under Wynn Las Vegas, LLC’s credit facilities
and the existing notes.
The notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or
under any state securities laws. Therefore, the issuers may not offer or
sell the notes within the United States to, or for the account or
