Item 8.01 Other Events.
On May 26, 2011 (New York time), MGM China Holdings Limited (“MGM China”) determined the price for its proposed offering of 760,000,000 ordinary shares (the “Shares”) of MGM China, or 20% of its issued share capital. The offering price is HK$15.34 (equivalent to approximately US$1.97) per Share, representing net proceeds of approximately HK$11.1 billion (approximately US$1.4 billion), which proceeds are net of underwriting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by MGM China in connection with the offering, and assuming that the over-allotment option granted to the international underwriters by Grand Paradise Macau Limited, a company wholly owned by Ms. Pansy Ho, to sell up to 114,000,000 additional Shares to the international underwriters is not exercised. The offering is expected to close on or about June 3, 2011 (Hong Kong time), subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. MGM China intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to repay its obligations to Grand Paradise Macau Limited as part of the reorganization of its shareholding structure.
The MGM China Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not historical facts are “forward-looking” statements and “safe harbor statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and other related laws that involve risks and/or uncertainties, including risks and/or uncertainties as described in MGM Resorts International’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We have based forward-looking statements on management’s current expectations and assumptions and not on historical facts. Examples of these statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding MGM Resorts International’s expectations to close on the sale of the Shares and the use of proceeds. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such forward-looking statements include market conditions in Hong Kong and other global markets for equity securities generally and for equity securities of gaming, hospitality and entertainment companies and of MGM China in particular. In providing forward-looking statements, MGM Resorts International is not undertaking any duty or obligation to update these statements publicly as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
