Macau Related Debt WM Cayman II Revolver On September 16, 2021, WM Cayman Holdings Limited II, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of WML, as borrower ("WM Cayman II") and WML as guarantor, each an indirect subsidiary of Wynn Resorts, entered into a facility agreement with, among others, Bank of China Limited, Macau Branch as agent and a syndicate of lenders (the "Facility Agreement"), pursuant to which the lenders will make available in an aggregate amount of $1.50 billion equivalent revolving unsecured credit facility consisting of a U.S. dollar tranche in an amount of $312.5 million ("Facility A") and a Hong Kong dollar tranche ("Facility B") in an amount of HK$9.26 billion (approximately $1.19 billion) to WM Cayman II (the "WM Cayman II Revolver"). WM Cayman II has the ability to upsize the total WM Cayman II Revolver by an additional $1.00 billion equivalent under the Facility Agreement and related agreements upon the satisfaction of various conditions. Due to the global phase out of London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), on June 27, 2023, WM Cayman II, as borrower and WML, as guarantor, entered into an Amended and Restated Facility Agreement with Bank of China Limited, Macau Branch, as agent for the syndicate of lenders (as amended and restated, the "Amended and Restated Facility Agreement"), to transition the base rate applicable to loans denominated in U.S. dollars provided under WM Cayman II Revolver from LIBOR to Term SOFR. The new Term SOFR base rate became effective July 4, 2023. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Facility Agreement, loans provided under Facility A bear interest at a variable rate per annum equal to: (a) Term SOFR, plus a credit adjustment spread of 0.10% (subject to a minimum floor of 0.00%), plus (b) a margin of 1.875% to 2.875% based on the consolidated leverage ratio of WM Cayman II and its subsidiaries (as calculated pursuant to the Amended and Restated Facility Agreement), and loans provided under Facility B bear interest at a variable rate per annum equal to: (i) the Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate, plus (ii) a margin of 1.875% to 2.875% based on the consolidated leverage ratio of WM Cayman II and its subsidiaries (as calculated pursuant to the Amended and Restated Facility Agreement). The final maturity of all outstanding loans under the WM Cayman II Revolver is September 16, 2025, by which time any outstanding borrowings from the WM Cayman II Revolver must be repaid. WML, as guarantor, may be subject to certain restrictions on payments of dividends or distributions to its shareholders, unless certain financial criteria have been satisfied through the Facility Agreement. WML Convertible Bonds On March 7, 2023, WML completed an offering (the "Offering") of $600 million 4.50% convertible bonds due 2029 (the "WML Convertible Bonds"). The WML Convertible Bonds are governed by a trust deed dated March 7, 2023 (the "Trust Deed"), between WML and DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited, as trustee. WML, DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited, as trustee, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas entered into an agency agreement, appointing Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas as the principal paying agent, principal conversion agent, transfer agent and registrar in relation to the WML Convertible Bonds. The net proceeds from the Offering, after deduction of commissions and other related expenses, were $585.9 million. WML intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. The WML Convertible Bonds bear interest on their outstanding principal amount from and including March 7, 2023 at the rate of 4.50% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 7 and September 7 of each year. At any time on or after April 17, 2023, the WML Convertible Bonds are convertible at the option of the holder thereof into fully paid ordinary shares of WML, each with a nominal value of HK$0.001 per share ("Ordinary Shares"), at the initial conversion price of approximately HK$10.24 (equivalent to approximately $1.31) per share, subject to and upon compliance with the terms and conditions of the WML Convertible Bonds (the "Terms and Conditions," and such right, the "Conversion Right"). The conversion price is at the fixed exchange rate of HK$7.8497 per $1.00, subject to standard adjustments for certain dilutive events as described in the Terms and Conditions. WML has the option upon conversion by a bondholder to pay an amount of cash equivalent described in the Terms and Conditions in order to satisfy such Conversion Right in whole or in part. Holders of the WML Convertible Bonds have the option to require WML to redeem all or some only of such holder’s WML Convertible Bonds (i) on March 7, 2027 at their principal amount together with interest accrued but unpaid to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption; or (ii) on the Relevant Event Redemption Date (as defined in the Terms and Conditions) at their principal amount together with interest accrued but unpaid to, but excluding, such date, following the occurrence of (a) when the Ordinary Shares cease to be listed or admitted to trading or are suspended from trading for a period equal to or exceeding 10 consecutive trading days on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited, or if applicable, the alternative stock exchange, (b) when there is a Change of Control (as defined in the Terms and Conditions), or (c) when less than 25% of WML’s total number of issued Ordinary Shares are held by the public (as interpreted under Rule 8.24 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited). The WML Convertible Bonds may also be redeemed at the option of WML under certain circumstances specified in the Terms and Conditions, in whole, but not in part, at any time after March 7, 2027, but prior to March 7, 2029, upon giving notice to the bondholders in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. The WML Convertible Bonds constitute direct, unsubordinated, unconditional and, subject to the Terms and Conditions, unsecured obligations of WML and rank pari passu and without any preference or priority among themselves. The Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exercise of Conversion Right will be fully-paid and will in all respects rank pari passu with the fully-paid Ordinary Shares in issue on the relevant registration date set forth in the Terms and Conditions. The Trust Deed contains covenants limiting WML's and all of its subsidiaries' ability to, among other things, create, permit to subsist or arise or have outstanding any mortgage, charge, pledge, lien or other encumbrance or certain security interest; consolidate or merge with or into another company; and sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its and its subsidiaries’ properties or assets, with certain exceptions. The Trust Deed also contains customary events of default. The Company determined that the conversion feature contained within the WML Convertible Bonds is required to be bifurcated from the debt host contract and accounted for as a free-standing derivative (the "WML Convertible Bond Conversion Option Derivative"). In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the WML Convertible Bond Conversion Option Derivative will be reported at fair value as of the end of each reporting period, with changes recognized in the statements of operations. For more information, see "Note 8 - WML Convertible Bond Conversion Option Derivative." As a result, the Company recognized a debt discount of $123.5 million within Long-term debt, representing the estimated fair value of the holders' conversion option upon completion of the Offering. The debt discount will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the WML Convertible Bonds using the effective interest method. As of December 31, 2023, the estimated fair value of the WML Convertible Bond Conversion Option Derivative was a liability of $73.7 million, recorded within Long-term debt within the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. WML Senior Notes WML's 4 7/8% Senior Notes due 2024, 5 1/2% Senior Notes due 2026, 5 1/2% Senior Notes due 2027, 5 5/8% Senior Notes due 2028, and 5 1/8% Senior Notes due 2029 (collectively, the "WML Senior Notes") bear interest at each of their respective interest rates and interest is payable semi-annually. The WML Senior Notes are WML's general unsecured obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment with all of WML's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, will rank senior to all of WML's future subordinated indebtedness, if any; will be effectively subordinated to all of WML's future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt; and will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future obligations of WML's subsidiaries, including the WM Cayman II Revolver. The WML Senior Notes are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the WML Notes are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale. The WML Senior Notes were issued pursuant to indentures between WML and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the "WML Senior Notes Indentures"). The WML Senior Notes Indentures contain covenants limiting WML’s (and certain of its subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: merge or consolidate with another company; transfer or sell all or substantially all of its properties or assets; and lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets. The WML Senior Notes Indentures also contain customary events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all WML Senior Notes then outstanding will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Upon the occurrence of (a) any event after which none of WML or any subsidiary of WML has the applicable gaming concessions or authorizations in Macau in substantially the same manner and scope as WML and its subsidiaries are entitled to at the date on which each of the WML Senior Notes are issued, for a period of 10 consecutive days or more, and such event has a material adverse effect on WML and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; or (b) the termination or modification of any such concessions or authorizations which has a material adverse effect on WML and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, each holder of the WML Senior Notes will have the right to require WML to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s WML Senior Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. If WML undergoes a Change of Control (as defined in the WML Senior Notes Indentures), it must offer to repurchase the WML Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. U.S. and Corporate Related Debt WRF Credit Facilities During 2019, WRF entered into a credit agreement (the "WRF Credit Agreement") providing for a first lien term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.00 billion (the "WRF Term Loan") and a first lien revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $850.0 million (the "WRF Revolver" and together with the WRF Term Loan, the "WRF Credit Facilities"). WRF used the net proceeds from the WRF Term Loan and the 2029 WRF Senior Notes (as defined below) to refinance the existing Wynn America credit facilities and the Wynn Resorts term loan and to pay related fees and expenses. Subject to certain exceptions, the WRF Credit Facilities bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum. The annual fee required to pay for unborrowed amounts under the WRF Revolver, if any, is 0.25% per annum. The Company is required to make quarterly repayments on the WRF Term Loan of $12.5 million, with any remaining principal amount outstanding repayable in full on September 20, 2024. The WRF Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and negative and affirmative covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants that restrict our ability to pay dividends or distributions to any direct or indirect subsidiaries, to incur and/or repay indebtedness, to make certain restricted payments, and to enter into mergers and acquisitions, negative pledges, liens, transactions with affiliates, and sales of assets. In addition, WRF is subject to financial covenants, including maintaining a Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in the WRF Credit Agreement. The Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio is not to exceed 3.75 to 1.00. The WRF Credit Facilities are guaranteed by each of WRF's existing and future wholly owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (the "Guarantors"), subject to certain exceptions, and are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of WRF's and each of the guarantors' existing and future property and assets, subject to certain exceptions, including a limitation on the amount of collateral granted by Wynn Las Vegas, LLC ("WLV") and its subsidiaries so as to not violate the indenture governing WLV's outstanding senior notes. On April 10, 2020 and November 27, 2020, the WRF Credit Agreement was amended to, among other things, implement a financial covenant relief period (the "Financial Covenant Relief Period") through April 1, 2022 and implement a financial covenant increase period (the "Financial Covenant Increase Period") commencing on the first day after the expiration of the Financial Covenant Relief Period and ending on the first day of the fourth fiscal quarter after the expiration of the Financial Covenant Relief Period, unless earlier terminated by WRF. During the Financial Covenant Relief Period, the existing consolidated first lien net leverage ratio financial covenant was replaced with a minimum liquidity financial covenant that required WRF and its restricted subsidiaries to maintain liquidity of at least $325.0 million at all times (with liquidity being the sum of unrestricted operating cash, as defined in the WRF Credit Agreement, and the available borrowing capacity under the WRF Revolver). WRF terminated the Financial Covenant Relief Period during the first quarter of 2022. Following the termination of the Financial Covenant Relief Period, WRF may not permit the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter to exceed 3.75 to 1.00. In May 2023, WRF and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amendment (the "WRF Credit Facility Agreement Amendment") to its existing credit agreement among Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other lenders party thereto. The WRF Credit Facility Agreement Amendment amends the WRF Credit Facility Agreement to: (i) transition the benchmark rate from LIBOR to Term SOFR and to make conforming changes, (ii) reduce the aggregate principal amount of revolving commitments under the revolving credit facility by $100.0 million, from $850.0 million to $750.0 million, (iii) extend the stated maturity date for lenders electing to extend their revolving commitments in an amount equal to approximately $681.3 million from September 20, 2024 to September 20, 2027, and (iv) extend the stated maturity date for lenders electing to extend their term loan commitments in an amount equal to approximately $749.4 million from September 20, 2024 to September 20, 2027. Lenders who elected not to extend their revolving commitments in an amount equal to approximately $68.7 million will remain subject to a stated maturity date of September 20, 2024, and lenders who elected not to extend their term loan commitments in an amount equal to approximately $75.6 million will remain subject to a stated maturity date of September 20, 2024. In connection with the WRF Credit Facility Agreement Amendment, the Company recognized a loss on debt financing transactions of $1.2 million within the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, and the Company recorded debt issuance costs of $5.1 million, within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. WRF Senior Notes During 2020 and 2019, WRF and its subsidiary Wynn Resorts Capital Corp.

In February 2023, the WRF Issuers issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7 1/8% Senior Notes due 2031 (the "2031 WRF Senior Notes") pursuant to an indenture among the WRF Issuers, the guarantors party thereto, and the Trustee, in a private offering. The 2031 WRF Senior Notes were issued at par, for proceeds of $596.2 million, net of $3.8 million of related fees and expenses. Also on February 16, 2023, the WRF Issuers completed a cash tender offer for any and all of the outstanding principal amount of the 2025 WRF Senior Notes, and accepted for purchase valid tenders with respect to $506.4 million and paid a tender premium of $12.4 million. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2031 WRF Senior Notes to purchase such tendered 2025 WRF Senior Notes and to pay related fees and expenses. In April 2023, WRF repurchased all of the outstanding 2025 WRF Senior Notes using the remaining net proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 WRF Senior Notes and cash held by WRF, at a price equal to 101.938% of the principal amount plus accrued interest under the terms of its indenture. In connection with the issuance of the 2031 WRF Senior Notes and purchase of the 2025 WRF Senior Notes, the Company recognized a loss on debt financing transactions of $10.6 million within the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, and the Company recorded debt issuance costs of $11.4 million within the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. In February 2024, the WRF Issuers issued an additional $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7 1/8% Senior Notes due 2031 (the "2031 WRF Add-On Senior Notes" and collectively with the 2031 Senior Notes and 2029 Senior Notes, the "WRF Senior Notes") pursuant to a supplemental indenture to the 2031 Senior Notes indenture dated as of February 16, 2023. The 2031 WRF Add-On Senior Notes were issued at a price equal to 103.0% of the principal amount, for net proceeds of approximately $409 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering of the 2031 WRF Add-On Senior Notes and cash held by Wynn Resorts to repurchase $678.0 million of the outstanding principal amount of the 2025 WLV Senior Notes (see definition below) and to pay related fees and expenses. The WRF Senior Notes were issued pursuant to indentures (the "WRF Indentures") among the WRF Issuers, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The WRF Senior Notes bear interest at each of their respective interest rates and interest is payable semi-annually. The WRF Senior Notes are the WRF Issuers' senior unsecured obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment with the WLV Senior Notes (as defined below), and rank equally in right of payment with Wynn Las Vegas' guarantee of the WRF Credit Facilities, and rank senior in right of payment to all of the WRF Issuers' existing and future subordinated debt. The WRF Senior Notes are effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of the WRF Issuers' existing and future secured debt (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt), and structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities of any of the WRF Issuers' subsidiaries that do not guarantee the WRF Senior Notes, including WML and its subsidiaries. The WRF Senior Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by each of WRF's existing domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee indebtedness under the WRF Credit Agreement, including Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and each of its subsidiaries that guarantees the WLV Senior Notes. The guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the Guarantors and rank senior in right of payment to all of their future subordinated debt. The guarantees rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future liabilities of the Guarantors that are not so subordinated and will be effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of such Guarantors' existing and future secured debt (to the extent of the collateral securing such debt). The WRF Indentures contains covenants that limit the ability of the WRF Issuers and the guarantors to, among other things, enter into sale-leaseback transactions, create or incur liens to secure debt, and merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of the WRF Issuers' assets. These covenants are subject to exceptions and qualifications set forth in the WRF Indentures. The WRF Indentures also contain customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain covenants, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, and failure to pay certain judgments. The WRF Senior Notes were offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The WRF Senior Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws. Therefore, the WRF Senior Notes may not be offered or sold within the United States to, or for the account or benefit of, any United States person unless the offer or sale would qualify for a registration exemption from the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. WLV Senior Notes Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp.

The Retail Term Loan Agreement provides for a term loan facility to the Retail Borrowers of $615.0 million (the "Retail Term Loan"). The Retail Term Loan is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Retail Borrowers. The Retail Term Loan matures on July 24, 2025 and bears interest at a rate of SOFR plus an adjustment of 0.10% plus 1.70% per annum. The Retail Borrowers distributed approximately $589 million of the net proceeds of the Retail Term Loan to their members on a proportionate basis to each member's ownership percentage. The Retail Borrowers may prepay the Retail Term Loan, in whole or in part, at any time with no premium above the principal amount. In accordance with the Retail Term Loan Second Amendment, the Retail Borrowers entered into an interest rate collar agreement with a SOFR floor of 1.00% and a ceiling of 3.67%. The Retail Term Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative and negative covenants for debt facilities of this type, including, among other things, limitations on leasing matters, incurrence of indebtedness, distributions and transactions with affiliates. The Retail Term Loan Agreement also provides for customary sweeps of the Retail Borrowers' excess cash in the event of a default or in the event the Retail Borrowers fail to maintain certain financial ratios as defined in the Retail Term Loan Agreement. In addition, the Company will indemnify the lenders under the Retail Term Loan and be liable, in each case, for certain customary environmental and non-recourse carve out matters pursuant to a hazardous materials indemnity agreement and a recourse indemnity agreement, each entered into concurrently with the execution of the Retail Term Loan Agreement. In accordance with the terms of the Retail Term Loan Agreement, the Retail Borrowers entered into an interest rate collar with a notional value of $615.0 million, the underlying reference rate of which was transitioned from LIBOR to SOFR concurrently with the Retail Term Loan. The interest rate collar establishes a range whereby the Retail Borrowers will pay the counterparty if one-month SOFR falls below the established floor rate of 1.00%, and the counterparty will pay the Retail Borrowers if one-month SOFR exceeds the ceiling rate of 3.67%. The interest rate collar settles monthly through the termination date in August 2024. No payments or receipts are exchanged on interest rate collar contracts unless interest rates rise above or fall below the pre-determined ceiling or floor rate, respectively. The Company measures the fair value of the interest rate collar at each balance sheet date based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which incorporates observable market inputs such as market volatility and interest rates, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. As of December 31, 2023, the fair value of the interest rate collar was an asset of $5.8 million, recorded in Prepaid expenses and other in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the interest rate collar was a liability of $10.4 million, of which $6.7 million was recorded in Prepaid expenses and other, and $3.7 million was recorded in Other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
