Item 3.         Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 is hereby deleted in its entirety and restated as follows::

 

On October 6, 2017, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 9, 2016, by and between Caesars Acquisition Company (“CAC”) and the Issuer, as amended by the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 20, 2017, by and between CAC and the Issuer (collectively, the “A&R Merger Agreement”), CAC merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).  At the effective time of the Merger, each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of CAC was converted into the right to receive 1.625 shares of Common Stock.  Accordingly, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Apollo Hamlet Holdings, Apollo Hamlet Holdings B, Co-Invest B and Co-Invest Series acquired an aggregate of 100,860,811 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, in exchange for the 62,068,191 shares, in the aggregate, of CAC’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, held by them immediately prior to the closing of the Merger.

 

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Irrevocable Proxy dated as of October 6, 2017 (the “2017 Proxy”), effective upon the closing of the Merger, Apollo Hamlet Holdings, Apollo Hamlet Holdings B, Co-Invest B and Co-Invest Series, TPG Hamlet Holdings and TPG Hamlet Holdings B (together, the “Sponsors”), granted Hamlet Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) a proxy in respect of all of the shares of Common Stock acquired by the Sponsors in exchange for shares of CAC common stock (the “Subject Shares”).  Pursuant to the 2017 Proxy, each of the Sponsors irrevocably constituted and appointed Holdings, with full power of substitution, its true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact to: (i) vote the Subject Shares held by that Sponsor at any meeting (and any adjournment or postponement thereof) of the Issuer’s stockholders, and in connection with any written consent of the Issuer’s stockholders, and (ii) direct and effect the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or any part of the Subject Shares held by that Sponsor, as and when so determined in the sole discretion of Holdings, subject to certain exceptions.  All or a portion of the Subject Shares, as the case may be, that are held by a Sponsor will be released from and will no longer be subject to the 2017 Proxy upon the earlier of (i) the sale, transfer or other disposition by Holdings of such Subject Shares, or the sale, transfer or other disposition of such Subject Shares pursuant to tag-along rights agreed to under the 2017 Proxy whereby the Sponsors can participate on a pro rata basis in the case of a sale of Subject Shares by a Sponsor to a third party that is not affiliated with any of the Sponsors, or (ii) with respect to all of the Subject Shares held by a Sponsor, the delivery by a Sponsor to the other Sponsors of a written notice of the Sponsor’s intent to terminate the proxy and release the Subject Shares from the transfer restrictions granted under the 2017 Proxy.  Transfers among the Sponsors and from a Sponsor to an affiliate that signs a joinder to the 2017 Proxy are permitted, but all Subject Shares transferred in any such permitted transaction will remain subject to the 2017 Proxy until released as described above.

 

Also on October 6, 2017, upon the consummation of the reorganization of Caesars Entertainment Operating Company (“CEOC”) and certain of its subsidiaries pursuant to a third amended joint plan of reorganization (the “Reorg Plan”), in exchange for an aggregate of $291,392,238.49 in principal amount of debt of CEOC and certain of its subsidiaries held by AAA (Co-Invest VI), LS III (H Holdings) and LS V S.à.r.l. prior to the reorganization: (i) AAA (Co-Invest VI), LS III (H Holdings) and LS V S.à.r.l. received an aggregate of 4,920,887 shares of Common Stock; and (ii) LS V S.à.r.l. received $16,367,750 in principal amount of the Issuer’s 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Convertible Notes”), which are currently convertible at the option of LS V S.à.r.l. into 2,275,089 shares of Common Stock.  AAA (Co-Invest VI), LS III (H Holdings) and LS V S.à.r.l. obtained the funds used to acquire the debt of CEOC and certain CEOC subsidiaries from capital contributions received from their respective limited partners or shareholder, as applicable.  None of the shares of Common Stock held by AAA (Co-Invest VI), LS III (H Holdings) or LS V S.à.r.l., or issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes held by LS V S.à.r.l., are subject to the 2017 Proxy.

(b)         See the information contained on the cover pages of this Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D, which is incorporated herein by reference.
