Item 1.01 Entry into a Definitive Agreement .

On March 16, 2017, Eldorado Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) executed a supplemental indenture to the Indenture dated July 23, 2015, as supplemented by that certain First Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 16, 2015 and that certain Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 26, 2016 (the “Indenture”), relating to its 7% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”). The supplemental indenture amended the Indenture by increasing the ability of the Company to incur credit facility debt to permit the Company to fully utilize the borrowing capacity under a new $1.75 billion credit facility that the Company anticipates entering into in connection with its previously announced acquisition (the “Merger”) of Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. (“Isle”). The supplemental indenture will only be operative upon successful completion of the Merger.

The Company had sought the consent of the holders of the Notes to the amendment contained in the supplemental indenture pursuant to a consent solicitation previously announced on March 6, 2017. On March 14, 2017, the Company announced that it had obtained sufficient consents to amend the Indenture.

A copy of the supplemental indenture relating to the Notes is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the exhibit.
