CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

In these notes, the words "Company," "Caesars,""Caesars Entertainment," "CEC," "we," "our," and "us" refer to Caesars Entertainment Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated entities, unless otherwise stated or the context requires otherwise.
Note 1Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization
We conduct business through our majority owned subsidiary, Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. ("CEOC"), and our wholly owned subsidiary, Caesars Entertainment Resort Properties ("CERP"), and their respective subsidiaries. We also consolidate Caesars Growth Partners, LLC ("CGP LLC"), which is a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary (see Note 4, "Caesars Growth Partners"). As of June 30, 2014, we owned and operated or managed, through various subsidiaries and CGP LLC, 50 casinos in 13 U.S. states and 5 countries. Of the 50 casinos, 38 are in the United States and primarily consist of land-based and riverboat or dockside casinos. Our 12 international casinos are all land-based casinos, most of which are located in England.
Caesars Interactive Entertainment, Inc. ("CIE"), a majority owned subsidiary of CGP LLC, operates an online gaming business providing for social games on Facebook and other social media websites and mobile application platforms, such as Slotomania, and certain real money games in Nevada, New Jersey, and the United Kingdom; and "play for fun" offerings in other jurisdictions. CIE also owns the WSOP tournaments and brand, and licenses trademarks for a variety of products and businesses related to this brand.
We view each casino property as an operating segment and aggregate such casino properties into one reportable segment.
Liquidity Considerations
We are a highly leveraged company primarily resulting from the leverage of our majority owned subsidiary, CEOC, which had $19,624.4 million in face value of debt outstanding as of June 30, 2014 out of the total $26,703.1 million face value of consolidated outstanding indebtedness. As a result, a significant amount of our liquidity needs are for debt service, including significant interest payments. Our outstanding indebtedness and our current debt service is more fully described in Note 8, "Debt."
As a result of a general decline in gaming activity since 2007, with Atlantic City properties and our regional markets being more heavily impacted by this trend, we have experienced substantial net losses in recent years, resulting in a net stockholders’ deficit of $3,064.8 million as of June 30, 2014. We expect to experience operating and net losses for the remainder of 2014 and the foreseeable future.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, and in July 2014, we closed a number of transactions that are expected to have a material impact on CEOC’s liquidity, debt guarantees, debt covenants and compliance, and debt maturities. These transactions include the following:
Completion of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction in which CEOC sold to CGP LLC the following properties: The Cromwell, The Quad Resort & Casino, Bally’s Las Vegas, and Harrah's New Orleans and 50% of the ongoing management fees and termination fees payable under the relevant property management agreements for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000.0 million, minus assumed debt and other customary closing adjustments (see Note 5, "Property Transaction between CEOC and CGP LLC and Related Financing");
Sale of CEOC common stock, which resulted in the automatic release of CEC's parent guarantee of CEOC’s outstanding debt in accordance with the terms of the underlying indentures (see Note 9, "Stockholders' Equity and Loss Per Share");
Completion of the offering of $1,750.0 million of Incremental Term Loans due January 2018 (see Note 8, "Debt");
Transactions under which we reacquired and retired the following (see Note 8, "Debt"):
$147.4 million of CEOC's scheduled 2015 debt maturities consisting of $44.4 million of 5.625% Notes and $103.0 million of 10.00% Notes via tender offers; and

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)

Completion of the previously announced purchase of $740.5 million of 5.625% Notes and $83.2 million of 10.00% Notes due 2015 under note purchase agreements with a significant third-party holder and a subsidiary of CGP LLC;
In total, we reacquired $784.9 million of 5.625% Notes and $186.2 million of 10.00% Notes due 2015.
Repayment of approximately $794.6 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans in addition to the debt reacquired under the transactions above, approximately $29.0 million of which was due in 2015 (see Note 8, "Debt"); and
Completed certain bank transactions that modified the then-existing covenants and other key terms included in the CEOC Credit Facilities (as defined in Note 18, "Subsequent Events") ("Bank Amendments"). The Bank Amendments included the following (See Note 8, "Debt"):
modification of the financial maintenance covenant to increase CEOC's Senior Secured Leverage Ratio ("SSLR," which is defined and described in Note 8, "Debt") from a ratio of 4.75 to 1.0 to a ratio of 7.25 to 1.0;
exclusion of incremental term loans incurred after March 31, 2014 (including the $1,750.0 million of Incremental Term Loans (as defined in Note 8, "Debt")) from the definition of SSLR for purposes of such covenant, which increases the amount of senior debt excluded for CEOC SSLR covenant purposes from $3,700.0 million to $5,450.0 million;
modification of CEC’s guarantee under the senior secured credit facilities such that CEC’s guarantee will be limited to a guarantee of collection with respect to obligations owed to the lenders who consent to the Bank Amendment; and
modification of certain other provisions of CEOC's senior secured credit facilities.
For more information on the above-referenced transactions and the impact that these transactions have on our liquidity and capital structure, see Note 5, "Property Transaction between CEOC and CGP LLC and Related Financing," and Note 8, "Debt."
On a consolidated basis, cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, totaled $3,429.6 million as of June 30, 2014 compared with $2,771.2 million as of December 31, 2013. Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2014, includes $495.7 million held by our consolidated VIE, CGP LLC, which is not available for our use to fund operations or satisfy our obligations unrelated to CGP LLC. Restricted cash totaled $1,940.1 million as of June 30, 2014, consisting primarily of $1,755.9 million of cash held in escrow related to the Incremental Term Loans that were funded in June 2014 (Note 8, "Debt"). These funds are considered long-term restricted cash at June 30, 2014; however as a result of the closing of the Incremental Term Loan transaction on July 25, 2014, the restrictions were released. The related debt is classified as long-term at June 30, 2014.
From time to time, depending upon market, pricing, and other conditions, and on our cash balances and liquidity, we may seek to acquire or exchange notes or other indebtedness of the Company’s subsidiaries through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers, redemption, exchange offers or otherwise, upon such terms and at such prices as we may determine (or as may be provided for in the indentures governing the notes), for cash or other consideration, including our common stock. In addition, we have considered and will continue to evaluate potential transactions to reduce net debt, such as debt for debt exchanges, debt for equity exchanges and other transactions.
We experienced negative operating cash flows of $386.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, and we expect to experience negative operating cash flows for the remainder of 2014 and the foreseeable future, and do not expect that our cash flow from operations will be sufficient to repay our indebtedness in the long-term and we will ultimately seek a refinancing, amendment, or restructuring of our debt, or if necessary, pursue additional debt or equity offerings.
Our ability to refinance or restructure our debt, or to issue additional debt or equity, will depend upon, among other things:
The condition of the capital markets at the time, which is beyond our control,
Our future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control; and
Our continued compliance with the terms and covenants in our credit facilities, indentures and loan agreements that govern our debt.

10

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)

Under CEOC's Credit Facilities, after giving effect to the Bank Amendment, CEOC is required to satisfy and maintain an SSLR of no more than 7.25 to 1.0, which is the ratio of CEOC's senior first priority secured debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA - Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted. This ratio excluded up to $3,700.0 million of first priority senior secured notes and up to $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of consolidated debt of subsidiaries that are not wholly owned. This ratio also reduces the amount of senior first priority secured debt by the amount of unrestricted CEOC cash on hand, which was $2,146.6 million as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, the CEOC SSLR was 4.61 to 1.0. Subsequent to the Bank Amendment described above, the ratio also excludes the $1,750.0 million of Incremental Term Loans.
We were in compliance with the terms and conditions of all of our loan agreements, including CEOC’s Credit Facilities and indentures as of June 30, 2014. Failure to comply with these covenants can result in limiting our long-term growth prospects by hindering our ability to incur future indebtedness or grow through acquisitions, or cause an event of default. See "Bondholder Disputes" in Note 14, "Litigation, Contractual Commitments and Contingent Liabilities."
Based upon the effects of the Bank Amendment combined with our current operating forecast we have a significant amount of room available under our SSLR covenant. We believe that we will have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations, that we will meet our debt service obligations, and that we will continue to be in compliance with the CEOC SSLR during the foreseeable future.
See Note 8, "Debt," for details on our debt outstanding and restrictive covenants related to certain of our borrowings. This detail includes, among other things, a table presenting details of our individual borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, as well as discussion of recent changes in our debt outstanding, and any changes in the terms of existing debt subsequent to December 31, 2013.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable for interim periods and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for complete financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The results for the interim periods reflect all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire 2014 fiscal year.
The financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 reflects the results of operations and cash flows of the Golden Nugget and Harrah's Tunica casinos as discontinued operations. See Note 3, "Dispositions, Divestitures, and Other Property Matters."
This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, ("2013 10-K").
Note 2Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance amending existing requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, discontinued operations reporting will be limited to disposal transactions that represent strategic shifts having a major effect on operations and financial results. The amended guidance also enhances disclosures and requires assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation to be classified as such for all periods presented in the financial statements. Public entities will apply the amended guidance prospectively to all disposals occurring within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2015. Due to the change in requirements for reporting discontinued operations described above, presentation and disclosures of future transactions after adoption may be different than under current standards.

11

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)


In May 2014, the FASB issued authoritative guidance amending the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and creating a new Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new guidance is expected to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP applicable to revenue transactions. This guidance provides that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Existing industry guidance, including revenue recognition guidance specific to the gaming industry will be eliminated. In addition, interim and annual disclosures will be substantially revised. The amendments in this guidance are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2017. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our disclosures and results of operations.
Note 3Dispositions, Divestitures, and Other Property Matters
Dispositions and Divestitures
Harrah's Tunica, Mississippi
Harrah’s Tunica casino closed effective June 2, 2014. As a result, we recorded intangible and tangible asset impairment charges totaling $68.0 million during the first quarter of 2014. In the second quarter of 2014, we recorded a charge for approximately $10.9 million related to accrued exit costs associated with the closure of this casino. We have presented the operations of the Harrah's Tunica casino as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.
Showboat Atlantic City
In June 2014, we announced the closure of Showboat Atlantic City, effective August 31, 2014. As a result, we recorded a $4.8 million charge in the second quarter of 2014 for accrued severance costs. In periods subsequent to the closure, we will present the operations of Showboat Atlantic City as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.
Golden Nugget
In February 2014, we permanently closed the Golden Nugget casino in London. As a result, in the first quarter of 2014, we recorded charges of $1.7 million related to the impairment of intangible and tangible assets and $13.1 million related to accrued exit costs. We have presented the operations of the Golden Nugget casino as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.
Claridge Hotel Tower
In October 2013, we entered into an agreement to sell the Claridge Hotel Tower, which was part of the Bally's Atlantic City asset group, for $12.5 million, less customary closing adjustments. We received these proceeds in February 2014 upon the transaction closing. The Claridge Hotel Tower assets of $11.9 million were classified as assets held for sale as of December 31, 2013.
Other Property Matters
Iowa Dog Racing Legislation
As a result of new legislation passed in May 2014 in the State of Iowa, we are required to cease our greyhound racing activities at our Horseshoe Council Bluffs casino in Council Bluffs, Iowa, effective December 31, 2015. The new legislation ("Iowa Dog Racing Legislation") requires that we pay a total of $65.0 million to the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission over a seven-year period, beginning in January 2016. These exit costs were recorded at the present value of the future liability and will be accreted over the term of the payments. The liability related to the exit costs was $40.3 million as of June 30, 2014.

Note 4Caesars Growth Partners
Consolidation as a Variable Interest Entity
CEC owns non-voting shares of CGP LLC and is also party to management services agreements between CGP LLC and CEOC that constitute variable interests in CGP LLC. Because the equity holders in CGP LLC receive returns disproportionate to their voting interests and substantially all the activities of CGP LLC are related to Caesars, CGP LLC has been determined to be a variable interest entity.
Because substantially all the activities of CGP LLC are related to Caesars and due to the factors set forth below, we have concluded that we are required to consolidate CGP LLC under GAAP. We have reached this conclusion based upon the weighting of a number of items, including the following: (i) the close association that CGP LLC has with Caesars, including the fact that all of the assets and businesses owned by CGP LLC were acquired from Caesars; (ii) Caesars through CEOC, has ongoing asset and management services agreements with each of the properties owned by CGP LLC; and (iii) Caesars has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive residual returns that could potentially be significant to CGP LLC. CGP LLC generated net revenues of $352.5 million and $578.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. Net loss attributable to Caesars related to CGP LLC was $114.5 million and $113.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.
Contingently Issuable Non-Voting Membership Units
CGP LLC is obligated to issue additional non-voting membership units to Caesars Entertainment to the extent that the earnings from CIE's social and mobile games business exceed a specified threshold amount in 2015. The number of units to be received is capped at a value of $225.0 million divided by the value of the non-voting units at the date of the CGP LLC transaction.

13

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)


CGP LLC maintains a liability equal to the fair value of the additional non-voting membership units contingently issuable to Caesars Entertainment during 2016 as described above. The contingently issuable membership units' fair value is based upon a multiple of EBITDA for the calendar year 2015 in excess of a specified minimum threshold and includes a maximum payout threshold. The fair value of the contingently issuable non-voting membership units was $355.0 million on the CGP LLC balance sheet as of June 30, 2014 and $306.5 million as of December 31, 2013. This liability is eliminated in our consolidation of CGP LLC.
Note 5Property Transaction between CEOC and CGP LLC and Related Financing
Property Transaction between CEOC and CGP LLC
In May 2014, as disclosed in greater detail in the Company's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on May 6, 2014 and May 21, 2014 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, CEOC sold to CGP LLC (hereafter collectively referred to as the "CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction"):
(i)
its subsidiaries that own the assets comprising The Cromwell, The Quad Resort & Casino, Bally’s Las Vegas, and Harrah's New Orleans (collectively the "Properties");
(ii)
50% of the ongoing management fees and any termination fees payable under property management agreements to be entered between a CEOC subsidiary and the owners of each of the Properties; and
(iii)
certain intellectual property that is specific to each of the Properties.
In May 2014, CEOC completed the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000.0 million, minus assumed debt and other customary closing adjustments. The debt assumed consisted of the $185.0 million Bill's Credit Facility described in Note 8, "Debt." Consistent with the 2013 sale of Planet Hollywood Las Vegas, this transaction was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control, with CEOC results being reflective of the sold properties through the date of the sale and CGP LLC reflecting results of the properties subsequent to the sale.
Under the terms of the agreements governing the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction, each property is managed by CEOC. In addition, each property licenses enterprise-wide intellectual property from Caesars Licensing Company, LLC. CEOC receives ongoing management fees during the term of the related property management agreement consisting of a (i) base management fee of 2% of monthly net operating revenues and (ii) an incentive management fee in an amount equal to 5% of EBITDA for each operating year.
In addition to the above, the agreements governing the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction also provide that CEC and CEOC will indemnify CGP LLC for certain obligations, including:
(i)
the failure of CEC and CEOC to perform or fulfill any of their covenants or breach any of their representations and warranties under the agreements;
(ii)
new construction and renovation of The Quad of up to 15% of amounts in excess of $223.1 million; and
(iii)
certain other agreed upon matters.
Related Financing Agreement
As disclosed in greater detail in Note 8, "Debt," in May 2014, CGP LLC entered into a First Lien Credit Agreement providing for a $1,175.0 million term loan and a $150.0 million revolving facility, and completed the offering of $675.0 million aggregate principal amount of their 9.375% second-priority senior secured notes due May 2022.

As a result of declining financial results in certain markets, we recorded impairment charges totaling $30.9 million in the first quarter of 2014, primarily related to gaming rights. In the second quarter of 2014, we recorded impairment charges of $15.3 million related to goodwill due to our decision to close a facility and $13.4 million related to trademarks due to lower than expected results. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded impairment charges related to certain gaming rights totaling $3.0 million and $23.0 million, respectively.
We determine the estimated fair values of our non-amortizing intangible assets by primarily using the Relief from Royalty Method and Excess Earnings Method under the income approach.

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)

aggregate principal amount of the 10.00% Notes by the expiration time. CEOC has accepted for purchase all of the notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn). CEOC has paid total consideration of $1,048.75 per $1,000 principal amount of the 5.625% Notes and total consideration of $1,022.50 per $1,000 principal amount of the 10.00% Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the payment date. In addition, pursuant to previously announced note purchase agreements with a significant third-party holder and a subsidiary of CGP LLC, CEOC purchased approximately $740.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 5.625% Notes for a purchase price of $1,048.75 per $1,000 principal amount and approximately $83.2 million in aggregate principal amount of the 10.00% Notes for a purchase price of $1,022.50 per $1,000 principal amount, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the closing date. As a result of the tender offers and the note purchases, CEOC retired approximately 99.1% of the outstanding amount of the 5.625% Notes and approximately 98.0% of the outstanding amount of the 10.00% Notes.
Bank Transactions
On July 25, 2014, CEOC announced it had closed on amendments to its senior secured credit facilities that, upon their closing, provided for the following (collectively, the "Bank Amendment"):
(i)
a modification of the financial maintenance covenant to increase the SSLR from a ratio of 4.75 to 1.0 to a ratio of 7.25 to 1.0 on a retroactive basis to 2008, accordingly this change is effective for our June 30, 2014 covenant compliance determination;
(ii)
exclusion of the Incremental Term Loans incurred after March 31, 2014 from the definition of SSLR for purposes of such covenant to bring the amount of senior notes excluded for SSLR covenant purposes from $3,700.0 million to $5,450.0 million;
(iii)
a modification of CEC’s guarantee under the senior secured credit facilities such that CEC’s guarantee is limited to a guarantee of collection with respect to obligations owed to the lenders who consent to the Bank Amendment; and
(iv)
a modification of certain other provisions of the senior secured credit facilities.
In addition, CEOC repaid approximately $794.6 million of outstanding term loans held by consenting lenders at par upon closing of the Bank Amendment.
CEOC Credit Facilities Activity
In June 2014, CEOC completed the offering of $1,750.0 million of incremental term loans ("Incremental Term Loans") due March 1, 2017, with a springing maturity to 90 days prior to March 1, 2017, if more than $500.0 million of CEOC's Term B5 or Term B6 Loans remain outstanding on such date. The net proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans were deposited in escrow and remained in escrow until all the escrow conditions were satisfied on July 25, 2014. The Incremental Term Loans require scheduled quarterly repayments of $4.4 million beginning in the third quarter of 2014.
As of June 30, 2014, CEOC's Credit Facilities provide for senior secured financing of up to $6,263.9 million, consisting of (i) senior secured term loan facilities in an aggregate principal amount of $6,157.8 million and (ii) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $106.1 million, including both a letter of credit sub-facility and a swingline loan sub-facility. There were no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013. The term loans under CEOC's Credit Facilities currently require scheduled quarterly payments of $2.5 million, excluding the Incremental Term Loans, with the balance due at maturity. Quarterly repayments increase to $11.1 million in first quarter 2015, excluding the Incremental Term Loans. As of June 30, 2014, the senior secured term loans are comprised of $29.0 million maturing January 2015, $955.0 million maturing October 2016, and $3,423.8 million maturing January 2018, excluding the Incremental Term Loans. Certain of these maturities were repaid in July 2014 as described in "Repayment of 2015 Maturities" described above. As of June 30, 2014$106.1 million of the revolving credit facility matures January 28, 2017 and $99.2 million is committed to outstanding letters of credit. After consideration of the letter of credit commitments, $6.9 million of additional borrowing capacity was available to the Company under its revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2014.
CEOC Notes Activity
Our Senior Secured Notes, including the Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes, and our unsecured debt, which is fixed-rate debt, have semi-annual interest payments.

19

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)

If we were to exceed the SSLR, which could be an event of default under our Credit Facilities, as amended, under certain circumstances, we are allowed to apply any cash contributions received from CEC as an increase to LTM Adjusted EBITDA - Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted, in order to cure any breach.
Based upon the effects of the Bank Amendment and our current operating forecast, including our ability to cure a breach of the SSLR, in certain circumstances, with cash contributions from CEC, we believe that we will have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations and meet our debt service obligations and that we will continue to be in compliance with the SSLR during the foreseeable future.
Restrictive Covenants and Other Matters
Under CEOC's Credit Facilities as amended by the Bank Amendment, we are required to satisfy and maintain specified financial ratios. Failure to comply with these covenants can result in limiting our long-term growth prospects by hindering our ability to incur future indebtedness or grow through acquisitions, or cause an event of default. Through June 30, 2014, the CEOC Credit Facilities required CEOC to maintain an SSLR of no more than 7.25 to 1.0, which is the ratio of CEOC's senior first priority secured debt to last twelve months ("LTM") Adjusted EBITDA - Pro Forma - CEOC Restricted. This ratio excluded up to $3,700.0 million of first priority senior secured notes and up to $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of consolidated debt of subsidiaries that are not wholly owned. This ratio also reduces the amount of senior first priority secured debt by the amount of unrestricted CEOC cash on hand, which was $2,146.6 million as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, CEOC's SSLR was 4.61 to 1.0. Subsequent to the Bank Amendment described above, the ratio will also exclude the $1,750.0 million of Incremental Term Loans.
In addition to requiring compliance with a maximum net senior secured first lien debt leverage test, the CEOC Credit Facilities include negative covenants, subject to certain exceptions, restricting or limiting CEOC’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) create liens on certain assets; (iii) enter into sale and lease-back transactions; (iv) make certain investments, loans, and advances; (v) consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its assets or to purchase, lease, or otherwise acquire all or any substantial part of assets of any other person; (vi) pay dividends or make distributions or make other restricted payments; (vii) enter into certain transactions with its affiliates; (viii) engage in any business other than the business activity conducted at the closing date of the loan or business activities incidental or related thereto; (ix) amend or modify the articles or certificate of incorporation, by-laws, and certain agreements or make certain payments or modifications of indebtedness; and (x) designate or permit the designation of any indebtedness as "Designated Senior Debt."
We were in compliance with the terms and conditions of all of our loan agreements, including CEOC’s Credit Facilities and indentures as of June 30, 2014, as described above, after giving effect to the Bank Amendment, which increased the allowable SSLR to 7.25 to 1.0 from 4.75 to 1.0. As a result, and together with the terms of the Bank Amendment, we have a significant amount of room available under the SSLR and expect to continue to be in compliance with the CEOC SSLR during the foreseeable future.
Caesars Entertainment is not bound by any financial or negative covenants contained in CEOC’s credit agreement.
All borrowings under the CEOC Credit Facilities are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default, the accuracy of representations and warranties, and the requirement that such borrowing does not reduce the amount of obligations otherwise permitted to be secured under the CEOC Credit Facilities without ratably securing the retained notes.
The indenture and other agreements governing our cash pay debt and PIK toggle debt limit our (and most of our subsidiaries’) ability to among other things: (i) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares; (ii) pay dividends or make distributions in respect of our capital stock or make other restricted payments; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) sell certain assets; (v) engage in any business or own any material asset other than all of the equity interest of CEOC so long as certain investors hold a majority of the notes; (vi) create or permit to exist dividend and/or payment restrictions affecting its restricted subsidiaries; (vii) create liens on certain assets to secure debt; (viii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; (ix) enter into certain transactions with its affiliates; and (x) designate its subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. Subject to certain exceptions, the indenture governing the notes and the agreements governing the other cash pay debt and PIK toggle debt will permit us and our restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including secured indebtedness.
CERP Debt
CERP Financing
In October 2013, CERP (i) completed the offering of $1,000.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.0% first-priority senior secured notes due 2020 and $1,150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11.0% second-priority senior secured notes due 2021 (together with the 8.0% first-priority senior secured notes due 2020, the "CERP Notes") and (ii) entered into a first lien credit

20

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)

agreement governing a new $2,769.5 million senior secured credit facilities, consisting of senior secured term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $2,500.0 million ("CERP Term Loans") and a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $269.5 million (collectively, "Senior Secured Credit Facilities"). CERP pledged a significant portion of its assets as collateral under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the CERP Notes. The CERP Term Loans require scheduled quarterly payments of $6.3 million, with the balance due at maturity. As of June 30, 2014, there was $35.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facility, and no amounts were committed to outstanding letters of credit.
CERP Restrictive Covenants
The CERP Notes and CERP Term Loans include negative covenants, subject to certain exceptions, restricting or limiting the ability of CERP and operating companies under the CERP Financing to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares; (ii) pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of their capital stock or make other restricted payments; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) sell certain assets; (v) create liens on certain assets to secure debt; (vi) consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets; (vii) enter into certain transactions with their affiliates; and (viii) designate their subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.
The CERP Term Loans also contain certain customary affirmative covenants and require that CERP maintains an SSLR of no more than 8.00 to 1.00, which is the ratio of first lien senior secured net debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted as defined ("CERP Adjusted EBITDA"). This ratio also reduces the amount of first lien senior secured net debt by the amount of unrestricted cash on hand, for a test period. As of June 30, 2014, CERP's SSLR was 6.10 to 1.00.
CGP LLC Debt
CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes
On April 17, 2014, subsidiaries of CGP LLC (the "Issuers") completed the offering of $675.0 million aggregate principal amount of their 9.375% second-priority senior secured notes due May 1, 2022. The Issuers will pay interest on the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes at 9.375% per annum, semi-annually commencing in November 2014.
The Issuers may redeem the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes at their option, in whole or part, at any time prior to May 1, 2017, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date and a "make-whole" premium. The Issuers may redeem the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes, in whole or in part, on or after May 1, 2017, at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes (the "Indenture"). In addition, at any time and from time to time on or before May 1, 2017, the Issuers may choose to redeem in the aggregate up to 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes (calculated after giving effect to the issuance of additional notes) at a redemption price equal to 109.375% of the principal amount thereof with the net proceeds of one or more equity offerings so long as at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) remain outstanding after each such redemption.
The CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes are senior secured obligations of the Issuers and rank equally and ratably in right of payment with all existing and future senior obligations and senior to all future subordinated indebtedness. Upon the release of funds from the Escrow Account, the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by subsidiaries of Caesars Growth Properties Holding, LLC (a CGP LLC subsidiary, and an Issuer) that are guarantors of a new senior secured credit facility to be entered into in connection with the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction, and secured by a second-priority security interest, subject to permitted liens, in certain assets of the Issuers and such subsidiary guarantors. None of CGP LLC, CEC or CEOC will guarantee the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes.
The Indenture contains customary covenants that limit the Issuers’ (and their restricted subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares; (ii) pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect of their capital stock or make other restricted payments; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) sell certain assets; (v) create or permit to exist dividend and/or payment restrictions affecting their restricted subsidiaries; (vi) create liens on certain assets to secure debt; (vii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets; (viii) enter into certain transactions with their affiliates; and (ix) designate their subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions outlined in the Indenture. The Indenture also provides for events of default, which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes to be immediately due and payable.

Registration Rights Agreement - In connection with the issuance of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes, the Issuers agreed to use their commercially reasonable efforts to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission notes having substantially identical terms as the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes on or prior to 365 days after the issue date of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes, and effect and exchange of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes for the newly registered notes.
If the Issuers fail to meet the targets for the registration and exchange of notes, the annual interest rate on the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes will increase by 0.25%. The annual interest rate on the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes will increase by an additional 0.25% for each subsequent 90-day period during which the registration default continues, up to a maximum additional interest rate of 1.0% per year. If the registration default is corrected, the interest rate of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction Notes will revert to the original level.
First Closing Term Loan
On May 5, 2014, an indirect subsidiary of CGP LLC also entered into a $700.0 million term facility that, along with CGP LLC cash on hand, funded the purchase price of the First Closing for the Nevada Properties. This term loan was subsequently repaid in full in conjunction with the Second Closing of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction.
CGP First Lien Credit Facilities
On May 8, 2014, the Issuers entered into a First Lien Credit Agreement providing for a $1,175.0 million term loan (the "CGP Term Loan") and a $150.0 million revolving facility (the "CGP Revolving Credit Facility"). The CGP Term Loan matures in 2021 and requires quarterly payments in amounts equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount, with the balance due at maturity. As of June 30, 2014, no borrowings were outstanding under the CGP Revolving Credit Facility, and $0.1 million is committed to outstanding letters of credit.
Borrowings under this agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Issuers’ option, either:
(a)
LIBOR determined by reference to the costs of funds for Eurodollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, adjusted for certain additional costs, subject to a floor of 1.00% in the case of term loans or
(b)
a base rate determined by reference to the highest of:
(i)
the federal funds rate plus 0.50%,
(ii)
the prime rate as determined by the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, and
(iii)
the one-month adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, in each case plus an applicable margin. Such applicable margin shall be 5.25% per annum for LIBOR Loans and 4.25% per annum for base rate loans, subject to step downs with respect to the revolving loans based on the Borrower’s SSLR.
In addition, on a quarterly basis, the Issuers are required to pay each lender under the CGP Revolving Credit Facility a commitment fee in respect of any unused commitments under the CGP Revolving Credit Facility. The Issuers are also required to pay customary agency fees as well as letter of credit participation and other fees.
PHWLV, LLC Senior Secured Loan
In conjunction with the closing of the CEOC-CGP LLC Property Transaction, CGP LLC used $476.9 million of the net proceeds from the CGP Term Loan to repay all amounts outstanding under the senior secured term loan of PHWLV, LLC and we recognized a $27.5 million loss on early extinguishment of debt.

During 2012, CIE issued to Rock Gaming two non-interest bearing convertible promissory notes totaling $47.7 million. The promissory notes are convertible into approximately 8,913 shares of CIE common stock. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the majority of notes were extended to November 2014.

Note 9Stockholders' Equity and Loss Per Share
Common Stock
In March 2012, we filed a registration statement with the SEC to sell shares of common stock up to a maximum aggregate offering price of $500.0 million. Pursuant to an equity distribution agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, we may issue and sell up to 10.0 million shares of Caesars Entertainment's common stock from time to time. No shares have been issued or sold during 2014 under this equity distribution agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, 900,493 shares were issued and sold. As of June 30, 2014, a total of 1,070,493 shares had been issued and sold for total proceeds of $15.6 million.
In April 2014, we sold 7.0 million shares of Caesars Entertainment's common stock at a price of $19.40 per share for total proceeds of $135.8 million (before expenses) pursuant to an underwriting agreement between Caesars Entertainment and Citigroup Global Markets Inc.
Noncontrolling Interests
CEOC Common Stock
On May 5, 2014, we sold 68.1 (68,100 on a post-split basis) of our shares of CEOC’s unregistered common stock to certain qualified institutional buyers for an aggregate purchase price of $6.2 million, which represented 5% of our ownership interest in CEOC. The CEOC shares were offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Upon completion of the sale, Caesars Entertainment’s guarantee of CEOC’s outstanding secured and unsecured notes was automatically released pursuant to the terms of the indentures. CEOC did not incur any expenses in connection with, and will not receive any proceeds from, this sale. We intend to use the net proceeds from the sale for general corporate purposes.
On May 30, 2014, CEOC effected a 1,000-for-1 split of its common stock. Unless otherwise stated, all applicable share and per-share data presented herein have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to this stock split. Additionally, as described in Note 16, "Stock-Based Compensation," during the second quarter of 2014, CEOC granted 86,936 shares of its common stock to employees. As of June 30, 2014, CEC's ownership interest in CEOC was approximately 89%. We have allocated $744.1 million of accumulated stockholders’ deficit to the noncontrolling interests’ ownership in CEOC based upon the noncontrolling interests' ownership share as of June 30, 2014.
CBAC LLC
In February 2014, CGP LLC's joint venture, CR Baltimore Holdings ("CRBH"), sold a portion of its interest in CBAC Gaming, LLC, the entity which owns a majority of the interests in the Horseshoe Baltimore joint venture to Caves Valley Partners, an existing joint venture partner. CGP LLC received $12.8 million of the proceeds from the sale. The sale reduced CRBH's ownership from 51.8% to 41.4%.
Earnings/(Loss) Per Share
Basic loss per share from continuing operations and discontinued operations is calculated by dividing loss from continuing operations and loss from discontinued operations, respectively, net of income taxes, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for each period. Because the Company generated net losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the weighted-average basic shares outstanding was used in calculating diluted loss per share from continuing operations, and diluted loss per share from discontinued operations, as using diluted shares would be anti-dilutive to loss per share.
The following table shows the number of shares which were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as they were anti-dilutive:
