(iii) unless the Caesars Party obtains the prior written consent of a Consenting Creditor: (x) use the information regarding any Claims owned at any time by such Consenting Creditor (the “Confidential Claims Information”) solely in connection with this Agreement (including any disputes relating thereto); and (y) except as required by law, rule, or regulation or by order of a court or as requested or required by the Securities and Exchange Commission or by any other federal or state regulatory, judicial, governmental, or supervisory authority or body, keep the Confidential Claims Information strictly confidential and not disclose the Confidential Claims Information to any other Person; provided, however, that the Caesars Parties may combine the Confidential Claims Information provided to the Caesars Parties by a Consenting Creditor with the corresponding data provided to the Company by the Consenting Creditors and freely disclose such combined data on an aggregate basis. In the event that any of the Caesars Parties is required (by law, rule, regulation, deposition, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal or administrative proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process, or by any governmental, judicial, regulatory, or supervisory body) to disclose the Confidential Claims Information or the contents thereof, the Caesars Parties shall, to the extent legally permissible, provide affected Consenting Creditors with prompt notice of any such request or requirement so that such Consenting Creditors may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this section. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver from a Consenting Creditor, a Caesars Party believes that it is nonetheless, following consultation with counsel, required to disclose the Confidential Claims Information, such Caesars Party may disclose only that portion of the Confidential Claims Information that it believes, following consultation with counsel, it is required to disclose, provided that it exercises reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Claims Information, including, without limitation, by marking the Confidential Claims Information “Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only” and by reasonably cooperating with the affected Consenting Creditor to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential and attorneys’ eyes only treatment will be accorded the Confidential Claims Information. In no event shall this Agreement be construed to impose on a Consenting Creditor an obligation to disclose the price for which it acquired or disposed of any Claim. The Caesars Parties’ obligations under this Section 5(a)(iii) shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(b) Negative Covenants of the Caesars Parties. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, for the duration of the Restructuring Support Period, each of the Caesars Parties (except with the prior written consent of the Requisite Consenting Creditors) shall not, directly or indirectly:

(i) take any action to solicit, initiate, encourage, or assist the submission of an Alternative Proposal; provided that this Section 5(b)(i) shall not apply to the Company after the Petition Date. If any Caesars Party receives a proposal or expression of interest in undertaking an Alternative Proposal, so long as the Consenting Creditors have agreed to comply with any applicable confidentiality restrictions related thereto (it being understood that CEC will not require any confidentiality restrictions that are in addition to the confidentiality

restrictions set forth in any non-disclosure agreement between (1) any Consenting Creditor and the Company, or (2) the First Lien Professionals and the Company, that is in effect on the date hereof), the Caesars Party shall promptly notify the First Lien Professionals of the receipt of such proposal or expression of interest, with such notice to include the identity of the Person or group of Persons involved as well as the terms of such Alternative Proposal; it being acknowledged and agreed that, without limiting the restrictions imposed on the Company pursuant to this Section 5(b)(i), the Company may pursue such Alternative Proposal (including by facilitating diligence in connection with such Alternative Proposal) in accordance with the Company’s fiduciary duties as set forth by Section 20 hereof;

(ii) (A) publicly announce its intention not to pursue the Restructuring; (B) suspend or revoke the Restructuring; or (C) execute any agreements, instruments, or other documents (including any modifications or amendments to any material Definitive Documentation necessary to effectuate the Restructuring) that, in whole or in part, are not substantially consistent with this Agreement, or are not otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Consenting Creditors and the Company; or

(iii) take any action or omit to take any action, or incur, enter into, or suffer any transaction, arrangement, condition, matter, or circumstance, that (in any such case) materially impairs, or would reasonably be expected to materially impair, the ability of CEC to perform its obligations under the MLSA relative to its ability to perform its obligations under the MLSA as of the date of this Agreement (after giving effect to the consummation of the Restructuring as if the Restructuring had been consummated on the date of this Agreement).

In the event the Company receives and determines to pursue an Alternative Proposal in an exercise of its fiduciary duties as set forth by Section 20 hereof, the Company shall promptly notify the Consenting Creditors of the existence and material terms of such Alternative Proposal; provided that the Company may withhold the material terms of such Alternative Proposal from any Consenting Creditor(s) who do not agree to applicable reasonable and customary confidentiality restrictions with respect thereto and/or who are in breach of this Agreement. After receipt of the material terms of such Alternative Proposal, the Requisite Consenting Creditors shall have three (3) Business Days after notice by the Company to propose changes to the terms of this Agreement, including the Restructuring Term Sheet and any exhibits thereto. The Company shall keep the Consenting Creditors informed of any amendments, modifications or developments with respect to such Alternative Proposal and any material information related to such Alternative Proposal, and, to the extent an Alternative Proposal is amended in any material respect, the Requisite Consenting Creditors shall have three (3) Business Days from any such amendment to propose changes to the terms of this Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, the covenants set forth in this Section 5 are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any covenants, obligations, or agreements of CEC contained in the Guaranty and Pledge Agreement, all of which covenants, obligations and agreements of CEC contained in the Guaranty and Pledge Agreement are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall survive and continue in full force and effect.

(c) Additional Covenants in Respect of CES. The Company and CEC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and for

the duration of the Restructuring Support Period, CES (except with the prior written consent of the Requisite Consenting Creditors) (i) to operate its business in the ordinary course, and (ii) to preserve and maintain intact all material assets, properties, and other interests (including, without limitation, intellectual property interests and intangible assets, such as reward programs and customer lists) that are currently owned, licensed, used, or enjoyed by the Company.

(d) Additional Affirmative Covenants of the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, for the duration of the Restructuring Support Period, the Company shall:

(i) to the extent permitted by the Bankruptcy Court and applicable law, cause the signature pages attached to this Agreement to be redacted to the extent this Agreement is filed on the docket maintained in the Chapter 11 Cases, posted on the Company’s website, or otherwise made publicly available;

(ii) to the extent not otherwise paid in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases (including pursuant to any debtor-in-possession financing or the Cash Collateral Stipulation), promptly pay in cash (A) upon the execution of this Agreement by the Company, all accrued First Lien Fees and Expenses for which invoices or receipts are furnished by the First Lien Professionals and/or Consenting Creditors, (B) following the execution of this Agreement by the Company and prior to the Petition Date, all First Lien Fees and Expenses for which invoices or receipts are furnished by the First Lien Professionals and/or Consenting Creditors, and (C) after the Petition Date, subject to the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Company’s use of Cash Collateral, all unpaid First Lien Fees and Expenses incurred after the date of this Agreement from time to time, in any event within ten (10) Business Days of delivery to the Company of any applicable invoice or receipt, which shall be in compliance with any order of the Bankruptcy Court and payment of which shall be authorized pursuant to the Cash Collateral Stipulation. For the avoidance of doubt, invoices on account of First Lien Professional Fees shall contain summary detail of services performed to enable the Company to determine the reasonableness of such First Lien Professional Fees. The Company’s obligations to pay the First Lien Professional Fees shall not be affected or reduced by the payment of any First Lien Professional Fees by any holder of First Xxxx Xxxx Debt, irrespective of whether such holder remains a holder of First Xxxx Xxxx Debt as of the date of this Agreement or is a Consenting Creditor; and

(iii) within five (5) Business Days after satisfaction of the conditions to effectiveness of this Agreement set forth in Section 15 hereof, the Company shall enter into amended account control agreements with respect to the Deposit Accounts preventing the withdrawal of funds outside of the ordinary course of business from such Deposit Accounts, and the Company agrees that during such five (5) Business Day period, it shall not remove any funds from the Deposit Accounts outside of the ordinary course of business; provided that such account control agreements shall automatically revert back to the form of account control agreements in existence immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement upon the termination of this Agreement on account of the breach of this Agreement by one or more Consenting Creditors holding in the aggregate more than 5.0% of the First Xxxx Xxxx Claims held by all Consenting Creditors at the time of such breach (other than a breach by any Caesars Party or any of their Affiliates); provided further that such control agreements shall still automatically revert on account of a breach of this Agreement by one or more Consenting Creditors holding in the

aggregate less than 5.0% of First Xxxx Xxxx Claims held by all non-breaching Consenting Creditors at the time of such breach (other than a breach by any Caesars Party or any of its Affiliates) if aggregate First Xxxx Xxxx Claims held by Consenting Creditors with power to vote in favor of the Plan is less than 2/3 plus one dollar of all First Xxxx Xxxx Debt (measured by notional value) or such breach otherwise would have a material adverse effect on the Restructuring.

(e) Additional Negative Covenants of the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, for the duration of the Restructuring Support Period, the Company (except with the prior written consent of the Requisite Consenting Creditors) shall not, directly or indirectly:

(i) take any action in connection with the Restructuring that violates this Agreement;

(ii) (A) redeem, purchase or acquire, or offer to acquire any shares of, or any options, warrants, conversion privileges, or rights of any kind to acquire any shares of, any of its capital stock or other equity interests, or (B) issue, sell, pledge, dispose of, or grant or incur any encumbrance on, any shares of, or any options, warrants, conversion privileges, or rights of any kind to acquire any shares of, any of its capital stock or other equity interests (other than issuances of equity interests upon the exercise, exchange, or conversion of options, warrants, or other conversion privileges that are outstanding as of the date hereof and only in accordance with the terms of such options, warrants, or other conversion privileges as in effect on the date hereof);

(iii) to the extent it would materially impair the rights of the Consenting Creditors and the Company’s ability to consummate the Restructuring, and other than as required by the Plan, amend or propose to amend its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws, or comparable organizational documents;

(iv) to the extent it would materially impair the rights of the Consenting Creditors, (A) split, combine or reclassify any outstanding shares of its capital stock or other equity interests, or (B) declare, set aside or pay any dividend or other distribution payable in cash, stock, property, a combination thereof, or otherwise with respect to any of its capital stock or other equity interests or any capital stock or other equity interests of any other Person;

(v) pay or make any payment, transfer, or other distribution (whether in cash, securities, or other property) of or in respect of principal of or interest on any funded indebtedness of the Company that either (A) is expressly subordinate in right of payment to the First Xxxx Xxxx Debt or (B) secured by an interest in collateral, which interest is subordinate in priority to that securing any of the First Xxxx Xxxx Debt, or any payment or other distribution (whether in cash, securities, or other property), including any sinking fund or similar deposit, on account of the purchase, redemption, retirement, acquisition, cancellation, or termination in respect of any such funded indebtedness that is not contemplated by the Restructuring Term Sheet; or

(vi) enter into any proposed settlement (other than as contemplated by this Agreement and the Restructuring or as previously disclosed to the First Lien Professionals prior to the date hereof) of any claim, litigation, dispute, controversy, cause of action, proceeding, appeal, determination, investigation, matter, or otherwise that will materially impair the Company’s ability to consummate the Restructuring.

(f) The Company acknowledges that it has reviewed this Agreement and has decided to enter into this Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Restructuring Term Sheet in the exercise of its fiduciary duties.

(b) the issuance, promulgation, or enactment by any governmental entity, including any regulatory or licensing authority or court of competent jurisdiction, of any statute, regulation, ruling or order declaring this Agreement or any material portion hereof to be unenforceable or enjoining or otherwise restricting the consummation of a material portion of the Restructuring (including with respect to the regulatory approvals or tax treatment contemplated by the Restructuring), which action remains uncured for a period of five (5) consecutive Business Days after the receipt by the Company and the Consenting Creditors of written notice of such event;

(f) a Caesars Party, XX0, XX0, or any of their respective Affiliates files any motion or pleading with the Bankruptcy Court that is not substantially consistent with this Agreement and such motion or pleading has not been withdrawn within two (2) Business Days of each of the Company’s and the applicable filing Party’s receiving written notice from the Requisite Consenting Creditors that such motion or pleading is materially inconsistent with this Agreement, unless such motion or pleading does not seek, and could not result in, relief that would have any adverse impact on the interest of holders of First Xxxx Xxxx Claims in connection with the Restructuring; provided that CEC may only terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(f) if CEC is materially and adversely affected by such motion or pleading;

(a) the breach by any Restructuring Support Party of any of the obligations, representations, warranties, or covenants of such Restructuring Support Party set forth in this Agreement in any respect that materially and adversely affects the Company’s interests in connection with the Restructuring, which breach remains uncured for a period of five (5) consecutive Business Days after the receipt by such breaching Restructuring Support Party from the Company of written notice of such breach; provided that, with respect to a breach by one or more Consenting Creditors, the foregoing shall apply only if (x) such breaching Consenting Creditor(s) hold(s) in excess of 5.0% of First Xxxx Xxxx Claims held by all Consenting Creditors, (y) non-breaching Consenting Creditors with power to vote in favor of the Plan do not then hold at least 2/3 plus one dollar of First Xxxx Xxxx Debt (measured by notional value), or (z) such breach would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Restructuring;

(g) the Effective Date has not occurred by the Outside Date.

11. Termination.

(a) No Party may exercise any of its respective termination rights as set forth in Section 8 or Section 10 hereof, as applicable, if such Party has failed to perform or comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (unless such failure to perform or comply arises as a result of another Party’s actions or inactions), with such failure to perform or comply causing, or resulting in, the occurrence of the Termination Event specified herein.

(b) Upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8, Section 9, or Section 10 hereof, all Parties shall be released from their commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement, and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of any Party.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 11(b) hereof, in no event shall any termination of this Agreement relieve a Party from (i) liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the termination date, including but not limited to CEC’s and the Company’s obligations to pay the First Lien Professional Fees, and (ii) obligations under this Agreement which by their terms expressly survive a termination date; provided, however, that,

notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Termination Event (including any automatic termination) may be waived in accordance with the procedures established by Section 14 hereof, in which case such Termination Event so waived shall be deemed not to have occurred, this Agreement consequently shall be deemed to continue in full force and effect, and the rights and obligations of the Parties shall be restored, subject to any modification set forth in such waiver. Upon a Termination Event that releases a Consenting Creditor from its commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement (as set forth in Section 11(b)), unless otherwise agreed to in writing by such Consenting Creditor, any and all votes, approvals, or consents delivered by such Consenting Creditor and, as applicable, its Affiliates, subsidiaries, managed funds, representatives, agents, and employees in connection with the Restructuring prior to such termination date shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void from the first instance and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Company.

12. Transfer of Claims. The Restructuring Support Parties agree, with the exception of the permitted transfers and purchases enumerated in (a) and (b) below, that no Restructuring Support Party will, directly or indirectly, sell, contract to sell, give, assign, hypothecate, pledge, encumber, grant a security interest in, offer, sell any option or contract to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any economic, voting or other rights in or to, by operation of law or otherwise (collectively, “Transfer”), all or any portion of its First Xxxx Xxxx Claims or First Lien Bank Claims now or hereafter owned, and no such Transfer will be effective, unless the transferee executes and provides to the Company and counsel to the Consenting Creditors a transfer agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E within two (2) Business Days of the execution of an agreement (or trade confirmation) in respect of such Transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Caesars Parties agree that any such transfer agreement shall be included in the definition of “Confidential Claims Information” in Section 5(a)(iii) hereof. In addition to the foregoing Transfer, the following Transfers shall be permitted:

(a) any Transfer by one Consenting Creditor to an Affiliate of such Consenting Creditor or one or more of its affiliated funds or an affiliated entity or entities with a common investment advisor or investment manager (in each case, other than portfolio companies); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any transferee under this Section 12(a) shall be deemed a Consenting Creditor for purposes of this Agreement, effective as of the date of the Transfer, and any transferor under this Section 12(a) shall remain liable in all respects for any breach of this Agreement by such transferee; and

(b) any Transfer by one Consenting Creditor to another Consenting Creditor.

Any Transfer of any Restructuring Support Party’s First Xxxx Xxxx Claims or First Lien Bank Claims that does not comply with the foregoing shall be deemed void ab initio; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that upon any purchase, acquisition, or assumption by any Restructuring Support Party of any Claims (including but not limited to First Xxxx Xxxx Claims and First Lien Bank Claims), such Claims shall automatically be deemed to be subject to all the terms of this Agreement. The restrictions in this Agreement are in addition to any Transfer restrictions in the Credit Agreement, the First Lien Indentures, and Non-First Lien Indentures, and in the event of a conflict the Transfer restrictions contained in this Agreement shall control; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict, waive, or suspend any consent right the Company may have with respect to any Transfer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Qualified Marketmaker that acquires any First Xxxx Xxxx Claim or First Lien Bank Claim subject to this Agreement with the purpose and intent of acting as a Qualified Marketmaker for such First Xxxx Xxxx Claim or First Lien Bank Claim shall not be required to execute a Transfer Agreement or otherwise agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth herein if, and only if, such Qualified Marketmaker sells or assigns such First Xxxx Xxxx Claim or First Lien Bank Claim within ten (10) Business Days of its acquisition and the purchaser or assignee of such First Xxxx Xxxx Claim or First Lien Bank Claim is a Consenting Creditor or an entity that executes and provides a Transfer Agreement in accordance with the terms set forth herein.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary: (a) to the extent that a Restructuring Support Party effects the Transfer of all of its Claims in accordance with this Agreement, such Restructuring Support Party shall cease to be a Party to this Agreement in all respects and shall have no further obligations hereunder; provided, however, that if such Restructuring Support Party acquires a Claim at any point thereafter, it shall be deemed to be a Party to this Agreement on the same terms as if it had not effected a Transfer of all of its Claims; and (b) subject to Section 2(a)(iii) hereof, to the extent that a Restructuring Support Party effects the Transfer of a Claim that it holds as a participant (and not grantor) pursuant to a participation agreement with voting provisions substantially similar to those set forth in the form of participation agreement produced by the Loan Syndications & Trading Association, the transferee thereof shall not be required to execute a Transfer Agreement.

13. Cooperation. Before the filing of and during the Chapter 11 Cases, (i) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to counsel for the Consenting Creditors (a) drafts of all material motions, applications (other than applications seeking to retain professional advisors), and other documents the Company intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court, no less than three (3) Business Days before the date when the Company intends to file any such document unless such advance notice is impossible or impracticable under the circumstances, in which case the Company shall notify telephonically or by electronic mail counsel to the Consenting Creditors to advise it of the documents to be filed and the facts that make the provision of advance copies no less than three (3) Business Days before submission impossible or impracticable, and shall provide such copies as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, and (b) copies of all material documents actually filed by the Company with the Bankruptcy Court promptly but not later than one (1) day after such filing.

14. Amendments. No amendment, modification, waiver, or other supplement of the terms of this Agreement (including the Restructuring Term Sheet) shall be valid unless such amendment, modification, waiver, or other supplement is in writing and has been signed by the Caesars Parties, the Requisite Consenting Creditors, LS3, and LS5; provided, however, that:

(a) no such consents shall be required from any Consenting Creditor with respect to any modification or amendment or any other agreement, document or other instrument implementing the Restructuring, regarding the treatment of Claims other than with respect to First Xxxx Xxxx Claims, so long as it would not, reasonably construed, have an adverse impact

on the interests of holders of First Xxxx Xxxx Claims (including with respect to the form or value of recoveries to be provided on account of such Claims pursuant to the Restructuring), in their capacities as such, in connection with the Restructuring;

(b) any amendment to this Agreement to (i) the defined terms “Consenting Creditors” or “Requisite Consenting Creditors” or (ii) Section 12 hereof shall require the written consent of the Company, CEC and each Consenting Creditor;

(c) any amendment that would materially and adversely affect any Consenting Creditor that is a holder of First Xxxx Xxxx Claims, solely in its capacity as such, in a manner that is disproportionate to any other holder of First Xxxx Xxxx Claims, solely in its capacity as such, shall require the prior written consent of the adversely affected Consenting Creditor;

(d) for the avoidance of doubt, any waiver of the conditions to the effectiveness of this Agreement set forth by Section 15 hereof may be waived only upon the express written consent of each of the Caesars Parties;

(e) the Company may waive application of the representations and warranties set forth by Section 7(a)(ii) and Section 7(a)(iii) hereof in all or in part with respect to any Consenting Creditor in its sole discretion, but in consultation with CEC; and

(f) any amendment to this Agreement to the defined term “Initial Consenting Creditor” shall require the written consent of the Company, CEC, and each Initial Consenting Creditor.

15. Conditions to Effectiveness. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement (and the obligations of all Parties hereunder) shall not become effective or enforceable against or by any of the Parties until the first date that this Agreement shall have been executed by (i) the Caesars Parties, (ii) LS3, (iii) LS5, and (iv) Consenting Creditors beneficially owning or controlling with the power to vote in favor of the Plan at least 60.0% of the outstanding amount of the Company’s obligations under the First Lien Indentures as of such date; provided, further, that such Consenting Creditors shall have also exercised their Put Options with respect to OpCo New Common Stock as provided by the Restructuring Term Sheet; provided further still that if the conditions to effectiveness set forth by this Section 15 are not satisfied or waived by the Company as provided herein on or before January 5, 2015, this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect.

16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Restructuring Term Sheet and the Cash Collateral Stipulation, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all other prior negotiations, agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement; provided, however, that any confidentiality agreement executed by any Restructuring Support Party shall survive this Agreement and shall continue to be in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

17. Survival of Agreement. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is being executed in connection with negotiations concerning a possible restructuring of the Company and in contemplation of possible filings by the Company under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (a) the exercise of the rights granted in this Agreement (including giving of notice of termination) shall not be a violation of the automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and (b) the Company hereby waives its right to assert a contrary position in the Chapter 11 Cases, if any, with respect to the foregoing.

18. No Waiver of Participation and Preservation of Rights. If the transactions contemplated herein are not consummated, or following the occurrence of the termination of this Agreement with respect to all Parties, if applicable, nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver by any Party of any or all of such Party’s rights, remedies, claims, and defenses and the Parties expressly reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies, claims and defenses.

19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall constitute the same instrument and the counterparts may be delivered by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail in portable document format (.pdf).

20. Company Fiduciary Duties.

(a) Subject to Section 5(b)(i) and Section 20(b) hereof, nothing in this Agreement shall otherwise require the Company or any directors, officers, or members of the Company, each in its capacity as a director, officer, or member of the Company, to take any action, or to refrain from taking any action, to the extent inconsistent with its or their fiduciary obligations under applicable law (as reasonably determined by them in good faith after consultation with legal counsel).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, prior to the Petition Date, and without limiting the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) hereof, the Company may only act in a manner inconsistent with the other terms of this Agreement to the extent required to pursue an Alternative Proposal that it reasonably determines in its good faith business judgment constitutes a binding proposal that is reasonably likely to be more favorable to the Company, its creditors (including holders of First Xxxx Xxxx Claims) and other parties to whom the Company owes fiduciary duties, than the Restructuring.

(c) All Consenting Creditors reserve all rights they may have, including the right (if any) to challenge any exercise by the Company of its fiduciary duties.

21. Headings. The headings of the Sections, paragraphs, and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation hereof.

22. Relationship Among Parties. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the duties and obligations of the Restructuring Support Parties under this Agreement shall be

several, not joint. No Restructuring Support Party shall, as a result of its entering into and performing its obligations under this Agreement, be deemed to be part of a “group” (as that term is used in section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) with any of the other Restructuring Support Parties. It is understood and agreed that no Consenting Creditor has any duty of trust or confidence in any kind or form with any other Consenting Creditor, and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, there are no commitments among or between them. In this regard, it is understood and agreed that any Consenting Creditor may trade in the Claims or other debt or equity securities of the Company without the consent of the Company or any other Consenting Creditor, subject to applicable securities laws, the terms of this Agreement, and the terms of the First Lien Bank Documents and the First Lien Indentures; provided, however, that no Consenting Creditor shall have any responsibility for any such trading to any other entity by virtue of this Agreement. No prior history, pattern, or practice of sharing confidences among or between the Consenting Creditors shall in any way affect or negate this understanding and agreement.

23. Specific Performance; Remedies Cumulative. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that, without limiting any other remedies available at law or equity, money damages would be an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party and each non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy of any such breach, including, without limitation, an order of the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy. Each of the Parties hereby waives any defense that a remedy at law is adequate and any requirement to post bond or other security in connection with actions instituted for injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable remedies.

24. No Commitment. No Restructuring Support Party shall be obligated to fund or otherwise be committed to provide funding in connection with the Restructuring, except pursuant to a separate commitment letter or definitive documentation relating specifically to such funding, if any, that has been (i) executed by such Restructuring Support Party and (ii) approved by the Bankruptcy Court, as necessary, along with the satisfaction of any conditions precedent to such funding requirements.

25. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to such state’s choice of law provisions which would require the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. Each of the Parties hereby agrees that the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York shall have jurisdiction to enforce this Agreement; provided that if and when the Chapter 11 Cases are filed, each Party agrees that the Bankruptcy Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction of all matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement.

26. Notices. All notices, requests, documents delivered, and other communications hereunder must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given only if delivered personally, by facsimile transmission, mailed (first class postage prepaid) or by electronic mail (“e-mail”) to the Parties at the following addresses, facsimile numbers, or e-mail addresses:

32. Qualification on Consenting Creditor Representations. The Parties acknowledge that all representations, warranties, covenants, and other agreements made by any

Consenting Creditor that is a separately managed account of an investment manager are being made only with respect to the Claims managed by such investment manager (in the amount identified on the signature pages hereto), and shall not apply to (or be deemed to be made in relation to) any Claims that may be beneficially owned by such Consenting Creditor that are not held through accounts managed by such investment manager.

Exhibit B

Restructuring Term Sheet

This document and any related communications shall not be

used for any purpose in any litigation or proceeding.

This Term Sheet is highly confidential and this Term Sheet, its contents and its existence may not

be distributed, disclosed or discussed to or with any party other than in accordance with the

express terms of confidentiality agreements/arrangements

among the respective parties and the Company.

SUMMARY TERM SHEET FOR PROPOSED RESTRUCTURING¹²

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT OPERATING COMPANY, INC.

and certain of its direct or indirect subsidiaries

(“CEOC” and together with certain of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, the “Company”)

¹	Nothing herein shall be deemed to be the solicitation of an acceptance or rejection of a plan of reorganization; any such solicitation shall be in compliance with the relevant provisions of securities laws, the Bankruptcy Code and other applicable statutes and rules.

²	This Term Sheet is an exhibit to, and part of, the Restructuring Support and Forbearance Agreement (the “*RSA*”), which contains additional descriptive language and legal terms in respect of the Company’s restructuring.

I.	Summary of Proposed Treatment³


Holders of the obligations (the “*First Lien Bank Obligations”) under the First Lien Bank Documents⁴ ($5,359 million plus interest thereon accrued through the Petition Date) and swaps entered into pursuant to First Lien Bank Documents ($42 million) (collectively, the “First Lien Bank Lenders*”)		Each First Lien Bank Lender shall receive its pro rata share of (a) $705 million in cash, (b) $883 million in New First Lien OpCo Debt, (c) $406 million of New Second Lien OpCo Debt, (d) $1,961 million in New First Lien PropCo Debt, and (e) $1,450 million in additional cash if the full amount of the CPLV Market Debt is financed for cash and, if not fully financed, Mezzanine CPLV Debt for the portion not so financed subject to the limitations set forth herein⁵. Each First Lien Bank Lender waives any entitlement to post-petition interest to the extent First Lien Noteholders do not receive post-petition interest.

Secured claims of Holders of the obligations (the “*First Lien Note Obligations”) under the First Lien Indentures ($6,345 million plus interest thereon accrued through the Petition Date) (the “First Lien Noteholders*”)		Each First Lien Noteholder shall receive in respect of its secured claim, its pro rata share of (a) $413 million in cash, (b) $306 million in New First Lien OpCo Debt, (c) $141 million of New Second Lien OpCo Debt, (d) $431 million in New First Lien PropCo Debt, (e) $1,425 million in New Second Lien PropCo Debt, (f) $1,150 million in additional cash if the CPLV Market Debt is financed for cash and, if not fully financed, Mezzanine CPLV Debt for the portion not so financed subject to the limitations set forth herein, (g) 69.9% directly or indirectly of PropCo⁶ on a fully diluted basis (excluding dilution from Equitized CPLV Mezzanine Debt and Preferred PropCo Equity, if any), (or cash to the extent of any Equity Rights exercised and/ or such Holder exercises its Put Option, as further described below) and (h) 100% of the OpCo New Common Stock (or, at its option, cash in the event such Holder exercises its Put Option, as further described below). As more fully described under Put Options, Equity Rights and Purchase Option (and subject to the limitations set forth therein), each First Lien Noteholder (a) will have the opportunity to be a Put Participant and sell the

Administrative, priority and critical trade claims shall be paid in full in cash as soon as practicable following consummation of the Restructuring or as otherwise provided for in definitive documentation. The plan may provide for separate classification for general unsecured claims on terms and with treatment that is reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Consenting Creditors (as defined in the RSA).

⁴	Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the RSA.

⁵	The First Lien Bank Lenders may choose to have up to $100 million of Mezzanine CPLV Debt they are to receive converted to a corresponding amount of New First Lien OpCo Debt, New Second Lien OpCo Debt, New First Lien PropCo Debt, New Second Lien PropCo Debt or equity in PropCo

⁶	Pending regulatory and REIT requirements, the First Lien Noteholders will receive their interest in PropCo indirectly through REIT New Common Stock (as opposed to directly through PropCo New LP Interests as Caesars Entertainment Company or its designee (“*CEC*”) and CEOC will).


		right to receive under the Plan some or all of its equity to the Backstop Parties for cash, (b) will have the opportunity to purchase PropCo Preferred Equity and/or (c) may receive cash from the Non-First Lien Noteholders for the right to receive some or all of their equity in connection with the exercise of the Equity Rights. If the First Lien Noteholders fully exercise the Put Options, the First Lien Noteholders, on an aggregate basis, will receive an additional $969 million in cash and a corresponding decrease in their equity recoveries, as more fully described in Section II below under “Put Options Price.”

Deficiency Claims of First Lien Noteholders and all claims of non-critical trade creditors and Holders of the obligations (collectively the “*Non-First Lien Obligations”) under (a) the Second Lien Indentures ($5,238 million plus interest thereon accrued through the Petition Date) (the “Second Lien Noteholders”), (b) the guaranteed unsecured indentures ($479 million plus interest thereon accrued through the Petition Date) (the “Unsecured Guaranteed Noteholders”), and (c) the unsecured note indentures ($530 million plus interest thereon accrued through the Petition Date) (the “Unsecured Noteholders,” collectively with the Second Lien Noteholders and Unsecured Guaranteed Noteholders, the “Non-First Lien Noteholders*”)		If the Non-First Lien Noteholders, and with respect to their deficiency claims, the First Lien Noteholders, vote as a class to accept the Plan, then the First Lien Noteholders will waive or assign at CEOC’s direction distributions in respect of their deficiency claims and distributions under the turnover provisions in all intercreditor agreements, and each Non-First Lien Noteholder shall receive its pro rata share of an amount of 30.1% of the equity, directly or indirectly, in PropCo on a fully diluted basis (excluding dilution from Equitized CPLV Mezzanine Debt and Preferred PropCo Equity, if any), which shall be deemed to include consideration for the value of any unencumbered assets. And, as more fully described under the Equity Right, if the Non-First Lien Noteholders vote as a class to accept the Plan, each Non-First Lien Noteholder shall also have the option to be a Rights Participant. If the Non-First Lien Noteholders, and with respect to their deficiency claims, the First Lien Noteholders, do not vote as a class to accept the Plan, then each Non-First Lien Noteholder shall receive its pro rata share of 17.5% of the equity, directly or indirectly, in PropCo on a fully diluted basis (excluding dilution from Equitized CPLV Mezzanine Debt and Preferred PropCo Equity, if any), which shall be deemed to include consideration for the value of any unencumbered assets. The First Lien Noteholders will waive or assign at CEOC’s direction distributions in respect of their deficiency claims and distributions under the turnover provisions in all intercreditor agreements on account of the 17.5% of equity to the Non-First Lien Noteholders. If the Non-First Lien Noteholders, and with respect to their deficiency claims, the First Lien Noteholders, do not vote as a class to accept the Plan, then the remaining 12.6% of PropCo equity shall be allocated to the equity holders of PropCo, excluding the Non-First Lien Noteholders, based on their pro rata ownership in PropCo (after giving effect to the exercise of the Put Options). The Plan may provide for the separate classification of Non-First Lien Noteholders in separate classes or subclasses in a manner not inconsistent with this Term Sheet.

II.

Put Options, Equity Rights and Purchase Option⁷


Put Options		Each First Lien Noteholder shall have the option to put some or all of its right under the Plan to receive (i) the OpCo New Common Stock it would otherwise receive pursuant to the Plan (the “*OpCo New Common Stock Put Options”); and/ or (ii) the direct or indirect interests in PropCo it would otherwise receive pursuant to the Plan (provided that no more than 14.8% (excluding dilution from Equitized CPLV Mezzanine Debt and Preferred PropCo Equity, if any) of such interests are put in the aggregate) (the “REIT New Common Stock Put Options” and, together with OpCo New Common Stock Put Options, the “Put Options”), and to instead receive cash as described below under “Put Options Price,” in which case CEC and any other Backstop Parties will purchase such equity interests as further described below, subject in the case of PropCo equity interests to the exercise of the Equity Rights described below, provided however that, in the event the UPREIT Structure is used (as defined herein), the First Lien Noteholders shall be required to put at least 5% of their PropCo equity to CEC (after taking into account any conversion of CPLV Mezzanine Debt acquired pursuant to the Equity Rights). The Put Options must be selected in connection with plan solicitation provided that with respect to First Lien Noteholders that are parties to the RSA, elections to exercise the OpCo New Common Stock Put Options must be made at the time of execution of the RSA. Each First Lien Noteholder that exercises any of its Put Options in whole or in part shall be referred to herein as a “Put Participant*.”

Put Options Allocation Between the Backstop Parties		As detailed in Annex I, CEC shall purchase the right to receive all the OpCo New Common Stock subject to the OpCo New Common Stock Put Options and REIT New Common Stock (or PropCo New LP Interests if applicable) subject to the REIT New Common Stock Put Options exercised by the Put Participants.⁸ The First Lien Noteholders may elect to become backstop parties (together with CEC, the “*Backstop Parties*”) (which election shall be made in connection with plan solicitation) and purchase a portion of the REIT New Common Stock (or PropCo New LP Interests if applicable) subject to the REIT New Common Put Options. First Lien Noteholders who wish to become Backstop Parties must make any required investor representations required for federal and state securities law purposes.

⁷

For tax efficiency or other purposes, the cash consideration to be paid to First Lien Noteholders through the exercise of either the Put Options or the Equity Rights may flow through the Company to the First Lien Noteholders as part of their recovery under the Plan as direct payments of cash, rather than be paid in respect of the receipt of stock or CPLV Mezzanine Debt or be paid directly by the Backstop Parties and/or the Right Participants. The Company and CEC shall consult with the First Lien Professionals in respect of the preceding and, if the decision could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the recovery of the First Lien Noteholders (in form, value, or otherwise as determined by the Requisite Consenting Creditors), it shall be subject to the reasonable consent of the Requisite Consenting Creditors.

⁸	For regulatory purposes, it is assumed that the First Lien Noteholders executing the RSA will elect to put at least 50.1% of the OpCo New Common Stock to CEC.



		The Backstop Parties shall receive no fee for purchasing or agreeing to purchase the equity subject to the Put Participants’ Put Options.

Put Options Price		The Put Options shall be at a price per share implying a total value of $700 million for 100% of the OpCo New Common Stock and $269 million for 14.8% of PropCo (directly or indirectly) on a fully diluted basis (excluding dilution from Equitized CPLV Mezzanine Debt and Preferred PropCo Equity, if any).

Equity Rights		If the Non-First Lien Noteholders vote as a class to accept the Plan, the “*Equity Rights” as detailed below shall occur and each Non-First Lien Noteholder shall have the non-transferable right to be a “Right Participant.” If the Non-First Lien Noteholders do not vote as a class to accept the Plan, there shall be no Equity Rights. Each Right Participant may elect to purchase (with the purchase immediately occurring after the closing of the Put Option) the right to receive up to all of the direct or indirect interest in PropCo to be received by the First Lien Noteholders and the Backstop Parties (but for the avoidance of doubt, not including the 5% of PropCo equity retained by OpCo) (the “Equity Rights*”), subject to being cut back on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Equity Rights exercised. Any Non-First Lien Noteholder exercising an Equity Right must (a) make any required investor representations required for federal and state securities law purposes and (b) execute the RSA. Each Non-First Lien Noteholder shall have 60 days following of the filing of the Company’s chapter 11 cases to execute the RSA and elect whether to exercise its Equity Rights, which Exercise Rights shall be subject to the Non-First Lien Noteholders accepting the Plan as a class. For every $1 of direct or indirect interest in PropCo purchased pursuant to the Equity Rights, the Right Participant shall also purchase $0.25 of CPLV Mezzanine Debt to be received by the First Lien Noteholders with such CPLV Mezzanine Debt then being converted into direct or indirect interest in PropCo at the same price per share as the Put Option (the “Equitized CPLV Mezzanine Debt”). The Right Participants must make their purchases first from the First Lien Noteholders who elect to sell to the Right Participants (pro rata among such First Lien Noteholders) with such election to be made in connection with plan solicitation, second from CEC, third from the First Lien Noteholders who do not elect to sell to the Right Participants (pro rata among such First Lien Noteholders), fourth from the non-CEC Backstop Parties (pro rata among the non-CEC Backstop Parties). For the avoidance of doubt, the First Lien Noteholders and the Backstop Parties, as applicable, must sell their respective right to receive equity, pursuant to the terms of the Equity Rights, to the Right Participants. The Right Participants shall receive no fee for acting as Right Participants.



		The procedures implementing the Equity Rights and exercise thereof shall be subject to the reasonable consent of the Requisite Consenting Creditors.

Equity Rights Price		The Equity Rights shall be at the same price per share as the Put Option.

Purchase Option		Each First Lien Noteholder shall have the non-transferable option to purchase their pro rata share (based on their holdings of the First Lien Note Obligations) of 50% of the Preferred PropCo Equity, with such purchases proportionally diluting the Preferred PropCo Equity purchased by the Preferred Backstop Investors (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement to be attached hereto).

Purchase Option Price		The Purchase Option shall be at a price per share implying a total value of $250 million for 100% of the Preferred PropCo Equity.

Regulatory Requirements		All parties shall abide by, and use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, any regulatory and licensing requirements or approvals to consummate the Restructuring as promptly as practicable including, but not limited to requirements or approvals that may arise as a result of such party’s equity holdings in the REIT, PropCo or OpCo, as the case may be. Such parties receiving equity shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with, and timely obtain and submit, all applicable licensing materials and information to, applicable gaming authorities throughout any regulatory or licensing process, including without limitation with respect to any applicable license, permit, or finding of suitability, and shall cause any individual subject to regulatory, licensing, or suitability approval to similarly cooperate and provide all such relevant materials and information. To facilitate regulatory approvals and prompt consummation of the Restructuring, any party signing the RSA must irrevocably elect upon execution of the RSA the amount of Put Options with respect to OpCo New Common Stock. The Company and its affiliates will assist with required regulatory approvals and structuring issues, including common stock voting structures to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. To the extent any required regulatory approvals are not obtained by the Closing of the Restructuring, the parties agree to work together to facilitate consummation of the Restructuring as promptly as practicable. Actions to be taken may include entering into transactions to permit the Closing to occur while such regulatory approvals are pending (alternate temporary structures), temporary escrowing of equity and/or selling down equity below regulatory threshold levels. Any actions proposed to be taken in connection with obtaining regulatory approvals that adversely affect any First Lien Noteholder, in an economic or other material respect, must be reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Consenting Creditors, and will be binding on all First Lien Noteholders.

REIT Requirements		To the extent any party would otherwise receive more than 9.8% of the outstanding REIT New Common Stock, such party shall instead receive


	direct PropCo New LP Interests equal to the value of such REIT New Common Stock above 9.8%. All PropCo Preferred Equity will be issued directly by PropCo, unless counsel to the Company concludes, after consultation with the First Lien Professionals, that issuance of such PropCo Preferred Equity by the REIT (as opposed to PropCo) would not adversely affect its ability to deliver the REIT opinion referenced below in IX under the heading “Tax Opinions/Private Letter Rulings.”

Closing	The Put Options and Equity Rights will close immediately following distribution of the equity securities under the Plan (it being understood that the exercise date for the Put Options and Equity Rights will be set forth in the solicitation materials and shall occur on a date determined by the Company prior to the projected effective date of the Plan).⁹

Put Options Conditions Precedent	The exercise of the Put Options and Equity Rights will be subject to customary conditions precedent including:

	•	the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered orders (a) approving the disclosure statement in respect of the Plan and (b) confirming the Plan;

	•	the effective date of the Plan shall have occurred;

	•	all regulatory approvals, or waiting periods, shall have been received or expired; and

	•	other customary conditions precedent in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Backstop Parties, and the Requisite Consenting Creditors.

III.

The REIT and Equity Securities


REIT		The Company shall restructure itself upon consummation of the Restructuring as a separate operating company (“*OpCo”), and property company (“PropCo”). Pursuant to the Restructuring a real estate investment trust (the “REIT”) will be formed to own and control the general partner of PropCo (“PropCo GP*”) and to hold PropCo New LP Interests.

⁹


		The separation of the Company into OpCo, PropCo and the REIT (the “*Separation Structure”) will be accomplished through either (a) the tax free contribution of PropCo assets to the REIT in a tax-free reorganization qualifying under Section 368(a)(1)(G) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) (such structure, the “Spin”), provided however, that in lieu of the Spin, the separation will be accomplished by (b) a tax-free contribution of PropCo assets to the PropCo partnership in a transaction qualifying under section 721 of the Code (the “UPREIT Structure”) if (i) the Company is unable to receive a favorable private letter ruling from the IRS (the “Spin Ruling”) or a “should” level opinion of counsel (the “Spin Opinion”), concluding, in either case, based on facts, customary representations (and certain customary assumptions, in the case of a Spin Opinion) set forth or described in the Spin Ruling or Spin Opinion, that the Spin qualifies under Section 368(a)(1)(G) of the Code, (ii) at the election of the Requisite Consenting Creditors if the Estimated REIT E&P (as defined below) exceeds $1.3 billion or (iii) at the election of the Company and CEC, with the consent of the Requisite Consenting Creditors, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. In either event, (x) the distribution of the new equity and debt will be made in a manner that will not generate taxable income to the Company other than cancellation of indebtedness income, and (y) the Company and CEC shall regularly consult and coordinate with the First Lien Professionals on the Separation Structure and all decisions that may materially affect the tax consequences thereof to the First Lien Noteholders. No later than 50 days prior to the deadline for voting on the Plan, the Company will deliver to the Consenting Creditors its reasonable estimate of the earnings and profits of the REIT (i) as of, and assuming an effective date of the Plan on, December 31, 2015, (ii) calculated using the implied equity values in this term sheet and valuing all new debt at par, and (iii) computed as if all of the PropCo New LP Interests other than the PropCo Preferred Equity are held through the REIT (the “Estimated REIT E&P*”), together with supporting work papers. The Consenting Creditors shall have 20 days to review the Company’s calculation of the Estimated REIT E&P and provide any proposed revisions to the Company, and the Company and the Consenting Creditors agree to negotiate in good faith such proposed revisions and to attempt to resolve any differences between the parties within 10 days of the receipt of such proposed revisions. In the event the parties reach agreement as to the amount of the Estimated REIT E&P such Estimated REIT E&P shall be final and binding as among the Company and the Consenting Creditors for purposes of the preceding paragraph. In the event the parties do not reach agreement on the amount of the Estimated REIT E&P, then the determination of the Estimated REIT E&P shall be made by an independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Company and the Consenting Creditors.

Equity Securities		The common equity securities to be issued will consist of new shares of common stock (a) of the REIT (such stock, the “*REIT New Common Stock”) and (b) of OpCo (such stock, the “OpCo New Common Stock*”). Such securities will be freely transferable to the extent provided under Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code.


		The Boards of Directors of CEOC, OpCo and the REIT shall each use its reasonable best efforts to have the OpCo New Common Stock, if more than 30% of the OpCo New Common Stock is owned by the First Lien Noteholders and Non-First Lien Noteholders (the “*Non-CEC Holders*”), and the REIT New Common Stock, respectively, (a) registered under US securities laws and (b) listed on a nationally recognized exchange, as soon as practicable subject to meeting applicable listing requirements following the effective date of the Plan. A registration statement covering the REIT Common Stock (and if applicable, a registration statement covering the OpCo New Common Stock) shall be filed as soon as practicable following the effective date of the Plan and in any event within 75 days thereafter. The Board of Directors of CEOC shall consult with First Lien Professionals on the form and substance of the registration statement(s). The parties shall enter into a customary registration rights agreement providing for among other things a re-sale registration statement for any First Lien Noteholder that cannot freely transfer its equity pursuant to Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code and keeping any registration statements that do not automatically incorporate SEC filings by reference up to date. In order to meet the requirement that a REIT have at least 100 shareholders, the REIT will have the right to issue, for cash, up to $125,000 of non-voting preferred stock (125 shares, $1,000 liquidation preference and approximately 12% dividend).

Contribution by CEOC of Properties to PropCo		If the UPREIT Structure is used, at least 5% of the PropCo New LP Interests purchased by CEC under the Put Options (on a fully diluted basis) shall be deemed as CEOC’s on account of its contribution of real estate into PropCo. In such case, CEOC shall have the option to participate in future issuances, or purchase additional equity from PropCo at FMV if participation is not feasible, to maintain its percentage ownership interest in PropCo at 5% if it would otherwise decrease below that threshold.

Services JV		Each of the Company and CEC (including through Caesars Entertainment Resort Properties LLC and Caesars Growth Properties Holdings, LLC) shall agree to take those steps that may be necessary or advisable with respect to Caesars Enterprise Services, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively “*CES*”) to ensure that the chapter 11 cases or a restructuring consummated thereby shall not impair, modify, or affect in any adverse way under the applicable agreements (i) the Company’s rights with respect to governance or administration of CES (including by amending Sections 5.5(b) with respect to any payment defaults arising from commencement of the chapter 11 cases, 5.6 and 7.12 of that certain Amended Limited Liability Company Agreement of Caesars Enterprise Services, LLC dated as of May 20, 2014 (as the same may have been amended from time to time), (ii) the Company’s rights with respect to that certain Omnibus License and Enterprise Services Agreement dated as of May 20, 2014 (as the same may have been amended from time to time) (including by amending Section 16.4 thereof), (iii) the Company’s rights with respect to any or all intellectual property or other business arrangements by and among the Company and CES, whether pursuant to section 365(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, any change of control provisions set forth in those agreements, or

other terms of such agreements and (iv) PropCo’s and OpCo’s right to use and access intellectual property and other rights in the same manner that such rights are currently used and accessed across the enterprise to the extent currently provided under the Omnibus License and Enterprise Services Agreement.

In addition, such agreements shall be modified as necessary or appropriate to reflect the OpCo/PropCo structure including (i) to provide that Total Rewards and other enterprise-wide and property specific resources are allocated, and services provided, in a way that does not discriminate against PropCo, (ii) for so long as CEC or its affiliates manages the properties, CES shall ensure that, in the event CEC or its subsidiaries cease to provide the resources and services provided under such agreements to PropCo, CES shall provide such resources and services directly to PropCo on equivalent terms to or via an alternative arrangement reasonably acceptable to PropCo; provided that if CEC or its affiliates are terminated as manager under the applicable agreements other than by or with the consent of PropCo, CES shall provide such resources and services pursuant to a management agreement on substantially the same terms and conditions, notwithstanding such termination, if so elected by PropCo. In the event PropCo terminates or consents to the termination of the management relationship with CEC or its affiliates, for so long as the transition period under the applicable management agreement(s) continues, PropCo shall continue to have access to such resources and services on no less favorable terms. The modified documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Consenting Creditors.

Furthermore, CES shall at the request of the REIT Board of Directors have meetings or conference calls once a quarter with a designee of the REIT Board of Directors to discuss, and consult on, the strategic and financial business plans, budgeting, including proposed capital expenditures and other topics as reasonably requested by the REIT Board of Directors. The REIT shall also have audit and information rights.

Terms of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

Description: Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “ Series A Preferred Stock”).

Issuer: CEOC PropCo, a newly created holding company (“PropCo”).

Purchase Price: $250 million.

Use of Proceeds: The proceeds from the Series A Preferred Stock will (i) first be used to reduce the Caesars Palace Las Vegas (“CPLV”) secured non-guaranteed financing (the “CPLV Financing”) in respect of the portion received by the first lien bondholders, if any, (ii) second, be used to reduce the CPLV financing placed with third party investors, if required, and (iii) third, if the CPLV Financing is sold to the market in full, the proceeds will be used to reduce the second lien debt of PropCo, as outlined in the Plan.

Issue Amount: $300 million aggregate initial liquidation preference.

Initial Liquidation Preference: $[ ] per share of Series A Preferred Stock.

Rank: The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank (i) senior to PropCo’s common stock and any other class of preferred stock of PropCo (including with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation), unless otherwise approved in accordance with the voting rights section below and (ii) subordinate to any existing or future indebtedness of PropCo.

Dividends: PIK dividend payable quarterly at the rate equal to the Yield (as defined below) as of any record date set for the payment of dividends to the holders of the common stock, provided that the dividend rate for the Series A Preferred Stock shall not be less than 5% per annum. Dividends are payable quarterly or, if more frequent than quarterly, when common stock dividends are paid, and are cumulative and compound based on the original purchase price and previously accumulated dividends.

All accrued and accumulated dividends are prior in preference to any dividend on the common stock and any securities junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, and shall be fully declared and paid before any dividends are declared and paid, or any other distributions or redemptions are made, on the common stock or on any securities junior to the Series A Preferred Stock (other than dividends payable in shares of common stock or repurchases pursuant to binding contractual commitments of common stock held by employees, directors or consultants upon termination of their employment or services).

“Yield” means the quotient resulting from (i) the aggregate amount of dividends declared payable to the holders of the common stock as of the record date for the common stock, if such date is concurrent with the record date for the Series A Preferred Stock, or the most recent record date if any, following the most recent record date for the Series A Preferred Stock if such record date is not concurrent, divided by (ii) the value of the common stock established and disclosed in connection with the Plan of Reorganization.

Liquidation Preference: Upon the commencement of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of PropCo or bankruptcy reorganization or any other similar event or proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, with respect to PropCo (each a “Liquidation Event”) or Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below), each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive in preference to any distribution to the holders of any common stock or securities junior to the Series A Preferred Stock the sum of (x) the Initial Liquidation Preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock (as adjusted for stock splits, recapitalizations and similar events) plus (y) accrued and unpaid dividends (collectively the “Liquidation Preference”), provided, however, in lieu of receiving the Liquidation Preference, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock may elect to convert their shares of Series A Preferred Stock into common stock immediately prior to (and subject to the consummation of) such Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event and share in the proceeds and other consideration of the Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event as common stockholders.

If upon any Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event, the remaining assets of PropCo are insufficient to pay the Liquidation Preference to which holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of PropCo in proportion to the respective Liquidation Preference which would otherwise be payable in respect of the Series A Preferred Stock in the aggregate upon such Liquidation Event or Deemed Liquidation Event if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full, and PropCo shall not make any payments to the holders of common stock or any securities junior to the Series A Preferred Stock.

A “Deemed Liquidation Event” means any of the following (i) the lease of all or substantially all of the assets of PropCo to a party other than OpCo or the sale of all or substantially all of PropCo’s assets (in each case whether in one transaction or a series of transactions); (ii) upon an acquisition of PropCo by another person or entity by means of any transaction or series of transactions (including any reorganization, merger, consolidation or share transfer) where the shareholders of the common stock and Series A Preferred Stock of PropCo immediately preceding such transaction own, following such transaction, less than 50% of the voting securities of PropCo; (iii) if any person (including any syndicate or group deemed to be a “person” under Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the rules of the SEC thereunder) is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except that a person will be deemed to own any securities that such person has a right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the total voting power of all classes of voting stock; (iv) on the first day on which a majority of the members of the board of directors of PropCo does not consist of Continuing Directors (as defined below); and (v) on approval of a plan of liquidation or dissolution.

“Continuing Directors” means (i) individuals who on the date of the original issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock constituted the Board of Directors or (ii) any new directors whose election or nomination was approved by at least a majority of the directors then

still in office who were either directors on the date of the original issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock or whose election or nomination was previously so approved by the shareholders of common stock and Series A Preferred Stock.

Optional Conversion: At any time and from time to time following the issuance date of the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert all or any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock at such holder’s option to a number of shares of common stock equal to (A) the sum of (x) the Initial Liquidation Preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock (as adjusted for stock splits, recapitalizations and similar events) plus (y) any accrued and unpaid dividends (including any amounts paid in shares of common stock), divided by (B) the Conversion Price (as defined below). The Series A Preferred Stock will initially be convertible into [14.2]% of the common stock of PropCo on a fully-diluted basis.

Conversion Price: The Conversion Price shall initially be the price per share of the equity of PropCo as determined in the Plan, subject to adjustment as described below under “Anti-Dilution Protection.”

Optional Redemption at the Option of Holder: Commencing on the date that is ten (10) years following the closing date, Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to require PropCo to redeem all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Stock at a per share price equal to the Liquidation Preference. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall also have the ability to require PropCo to redeem all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time at a per share price equal to the Liquidation Preference upon (a) the occurrence of a “Breach” (as defined below) or (b) the effective date of a confirmed plan in a chapter 11 bankruptcy case for PropCo or any similar bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. PropCo shall not have any right to require mandatory redemption.

Any:

1. Failure to pay dividends when due;

2. Failure to make any redemption payment or liquidation payment when due;

3. Breaches of any other covenants set forth herein; or

4. Assignment for the benefit of creditors or bankruptcy

shall constitute a “Breach,” and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a dividend rate increase by an increment of 2% per annum for all periods of time during which a Breach is continuing.

In the event that at any time and from time to time, a Breach pursuant to clauses 1, 2 or 3 above is not cured within three months of its occurrence, then the majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to designate a party (which party may be a holder of the Series A Preferred Stock) to observe all matters submitted to or considered by the board of directors of PropCo until such time as the event is cured.

Voting and consent rights: The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the holders of PropCo’s common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of common stock.

To the extent that the shares of common stock and/or Series A Preferred Stock held by any holder of Series A Preferred Stock and/or common stock would, on the record date for a vote on matters submitted to the common stock, enable such holder to vote an interest equal to 5% or more of the common stock, such holder shall be entitled to vote an interest equal to 4.99% of the common stock. Any interests held by such party in excess of 4.99% shall be deemed cast in favor of the vote of the majority. The foregoing shall not apply to any holder who, on the record date for a vote on matters submitted to the common stock, holds less than 5% of the vote in respect of such matter, and shall only apply to matters submitted to the vote of the common stock, and not matters that the Series A Preferred Stock may vote on as a separate class.

In addition, the following matters require the consent of the majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class, and excluding such shares owned by PropCo, OpCo or any subsidiary or other entity controlled by or controlling any such party:

changes to PropCo’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws adversely affecting preferences, rights, privileges or powers of any holder of the Series A Preferred Stock;

alterations of the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock;

increasing the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock; or

creating any new class or series of stock, or any other equity securities, or any other securities convertible into equity securities of PropCo, in each such case having a preference over, or being on a parity with, the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, liquidation, voting or redemption.

Anti-Dilution Protection: The Series A Preferred Stock will have customary anti-dilution provisions, including in connection with (a) a subdivision or combination of outstanding common stock, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, dividend or other distribution payable in any form, (b) any Deemed Liquidation Event under clauses (i) through (iv) of such definition, and (c) any consideration in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for common stock of PropCo or securities junior to the Series A Preferred Stock made by PropCo or any of its subsidiaries. The Series A Preferred Stock shall be adjusted on a weighted average basis for issuances of common stock (or common stock equivalents, equity securities, or securities/debt convertible into equity securities).

In the event that a shareholder rights plan is in effect, the Series A Preferred Stock will receive upon conversion of such shares, in addition to the common stock of PropCo, rights under the shareholder rights agreement.

Registration rights: The holders of Series A Preferred Stock will have customary registration rights.

[Ownership: Not more than 50% in value of PropCo’s capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals.]

Documentation: The Series A Preferred Stock will be issued pursuant to a certificate of designations governing the rights and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”).

2.	The Election Form must be submitted by the Subscription Expiration Date.
