Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

Transaction Agreement

On March 1, 2014, Caesars Acquisition Company (“CAC” or the “Company”) entered into a Transaction Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among, Caesars Entertainment Corporation (“CEC”), Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. (“CEOC”), Caesars License Company, LLC (“CLC”), Harrah’s New Orleans Management Company (“HNOMC”), Corner Investment Company, LLC (“CIC”), 3535 LV Corp. (“3535 LV”), Parball Corporation (“Parball”), JCC Holding Company II, LLC (“JCC Holding”), CAC and Caesars Growth Partners, LLC (“Growth Partners”). The Agreement was fully negotiated by and between a Special Committee of CEC’s Board of Directors (the “CEC Special Committee”) and a Special Committee of CAC’s Board of Directors (the “CAC Special Committee”), each comprised solely of independent directors, and was recommended by both committees and approved by the Boards of Directors of CEC and CAC. The CEC Special Committee, the CAC Special Committee and the Boards of Directors of CEC and CAC each received fairness opinions from firms with experience in valuation matters, which stated that, based upon and subject to (and in reliance on) the assumptions made, matters considered and limits of such review, in each case as set forth in the opinions, the Purchase Price (as defined below) was fair from a financial point of view to CEC and Growth Partners, respectively.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Growth Partners (or one or more of its designated direct or indirect subsidiaries) agreed to acquire from CEOC or one or more of its affiliates, (i) The Cromwell (f/k/a Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall & Saloon), The Quad Resort & Casino (“The Quad”), Bally’s Las Vegas and Harrah’s New Orleans (each a “Property” and collectively, the “Properties”), (ii) 50% of the ongoing management fees and any termination fees payable under the Property Management Agreements to be entered between a Property Manager (as defined below) and the owners of each of the Properties (the “Property Management Agreements”); and (iii) certain intellectual property that is specific to each of the Properties (together with the transactions described in (i) and (ii) above, the “Transaction”) for an aggregate purchase price of US $2.0 billion (the “Purchase Price”), less outstanding debt to be assumed in the Transaction, and also subject to various pre-closing and post-closing adjustments in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

The Transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including the receipt of gaming and other required governmental approvals, accuracy of representations and warranties, compliance with covenants and receipt by CEC and the CEC Special Committee of certain opinions with respect to CEOC. In addition, the consummation of the Transaction by CAC is subject to CAC’s receipt of financing on terms and conditions satisfactory to CAC and Growth Partners. The Agreement provides that, at the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), the owner of each Property will enter into a Property Management Agreement with the applicable Property Manager, pursuant to which, among other things, the Property Managers will provide management services to the applicable Property and Caesars Licensing Company, LLC will license enterprise-wide intellectual property used in the operation of the Properties.

The Agreement contains customary indemnification obligations of each party with respect to breaches of their respective representations, warranties, covenants and obligations, and certain other designated matters, which in certain circumstances are subject to specified limitations on the amount of indemnifiable damages and the survival period in which a claim may be made. Additional indemnification obligations of CEC and the Sellers (as defined in the Agreement) include amounts expended for new construction and renovation at The Quad in excess of the $223 million budgeted for renovation expenses (up to a maximum amount equal to 15% of such budgeted amount and subject to certain exceptions) and certain liabilities arising under employee benefit plans. In addition to the aforementioned indemnification obligations, the Agreement requires that CEOC ensure that the remaining amounts required to construct and open The Cromwell be fully-funded by CEOC, including providing a minimum amount of House Funds (as defined in the Agreement) in connection with the opening of The Cromwell. CEC and certain of its affiliates will indemnify CAC, Growth Partners and certain of their affiliates for a failure to open the hotel and casino at The Cromwell by a specified date and for failure to open the restaurant and nightclub at The Cromwell by a specified date.

The Property Management Agreements will be entered into at Closing by and between each of the four property management entities (each a “Property Manager” and collectively, the “Property Managers”), each of which (other than HNOMC, which is the existing manager of Harrah’s New Orleans) will be formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of CEOC, and each of the respective owners of the Properties (the “Property Owners”). The ongoing management fees payable to each of the Property Managers consists of a (i) base management fee of 2% of net

operating revenues with respect to each month of each year during the term of such agreement and (ii) an incentive management fee in an amount equal to 5% of EBITDA for each operating year. CEOC will guarantee the obligations of the Property Managers under each of the Property Management Agreements.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the parties have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to establish a new services joint venture (the “Services JV”) between CEOC, Caesars Entertainment Resort Properties LLC (“CERP”) and Growth Partners and certain of their respective subsidiaries. The purpose of the Services JV includes the common management of the enterprise-wide intellectual property, which will be licensed by the Services JV to, among other parties, each of the Property Owners, and shared services operations across the portfolio of CEOC, CERP and Growth Partners properties. Following the Closing, at Growth Partners’ request and subject to receipt of any required regulatory approvals, the Property Management Agreements will be assigned to the Services JV which will thereafter perform the obligations of the Property Managers (in which case CEOC’s guarantee of the obligations under the assigned Property Management Agreements will be released).

The Agreement is subject to termination if the Closing is not completed by June 30, 2014, which date may be extended until August 31, 2014 in certain circumstances.

The representations and warranties set forth in the Agreement have been made only for the purposes of such agreement and were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures, may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, the Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the parties or their respective businesses, and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures in CAC’s periodic reports and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The foregoing description of the Agreement is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the Transaction, on March 1, 2014, Caesars Growth Properties Holdings, LLC (“CGPH”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Growth Partners, entered into a commitment letter ( the “Commitment Letter”) with Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Citibank, N.A., Citicorp USA, Inc., Citicorp North America, Inc. (“Citi”), Credit Suisse AG (“CS”), Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch and Cayman Islands Branch (“DB”) and UBS AG, Stamford Branch (“UBS”, together with Citi, CS and DB, the “Lenders”), pursuant to which, subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Lenders committed to provide $1.325 billion in senior secured credit facilities (a $1.175 billion senior secured term facility and a $150 million senior secured revolving facility) and $675 million in second lien indebtedness to consummate the Transaction and to refinance Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino’s existing indebtedness, on or prior to the Closing Date.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On March 3, 2014, in connection with the Transaction, the Company issued a press release announcing (i) the Transaction and (ii) the approval of certain capital investments in The Quad. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
