The Consent Solicitation expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 30, 2021 (the “Expiration Date”).

Following receipt of the Requisite Consents, the Issuer, SGMS, the other guarantors party to the Indentures and the trustee for the Indentures executed supplemental indentures (the “Supplemental Indentures”) on September 30, 2021. The Supplemental Indentures amended the Indentures’ requirement that at least 75% of the consideration received from an Asset Sale is cash or cash equivalents to reduce that percentage to 60%, solely with respect to an initial public offering relating to the intended divestiture of SGMS’ lottery business (“SG Lottery”) occurring prior to June 30, 2022, subject to the terms and conditions described in the Statement. The Supplemental Indentures became effective upon their execution and delivery and are binding on all holders of the Notes, even those who did not deliver a consent at or prior to the Expiration Date. The Proposed Amendments set forth in the Supplemental Indentures will become operative upon payment of the Consent Payment (as defined below).
Holders of record who validly delivered and did not validly revoke their consents prior to the Expiration Date will receive a pro rata portion of the aggregate consent payment (the “Consent Payment”), in the manner described in the Statement. The Company expects to make the Consent Payment on a date on or prior to the consummation of the SG Lottery IPO (as defined in the Statement), subject to the conditions set forth in the Statement. No portion of the Consent Payment will be payable with respect to any consents received after the Expiration Date or to holders of Notes who did not deliver a valid and unrevoked consent at or prior to the Expiration Date.
This press release is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any security. The Consent Solicitation was made solely by the Statement, dated September 23, 2021, which sets forth the complete terms of the Consent Solicitation.
