Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

As described in the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on September 12, 2014 and October 17, 2014, Caesars Entertainment Corporation (“CEC”) and Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc., a majority owned subsidiary of CEC (“CEOC”), announced that they have been engaged in confidential discussions with certain beneficial holders (the “First Lien Creditors”) of CEOC’s 11.25% senior secured notes due 2017, CEOC’s 8.5% senior secured notes due 2020, CEOC’s 9% senior secured notes due 2020 and CEOC’s senior secured credit facilities in furtherance of their efforts to restructure CEOC’s debt.

In connection with the discussions, CEC and CEOC provided certain confidential information to the First Lien Creditors pursuant to non-disclosure agreements (“NDAs”) between CEC, CEOC and the First Lien Creditors. Prior to the date hereof, one First Lien Creditor holding obligations under CEOC’s senior secured credit facilities has not agreed to extend its NDA (the “Non-Extending Bank Creditor”). CEC and CEOC are making the disclosures herein in accordance with the terms of the Non-Extending Bank Creditor’s NDA. While CEC and CEOC are no longer in discussions with the Non-Extending Bank Creditor, and while no agreement has been reached yet on the terms of a restructuring, CEC and CEOC are continuing discussions with the remaining First Lien Creditors. Since the last proposal that was made to the Non-Extending Bank Creditor (the “Outdated Proposal”), numerous proposals have been, and continue to be, transmitted between CEC, CEOC and the other First Lien Creditors. As such, the Outdated Proposal has been superseded by the proposals now being considered by the other First Lien Creditors, CEC and CEOC. Pursuant to the terms of the NDA, CEC and CEOC are disclosing a summary of the material terms of the Outdated Proposal. No assurances can be made that an agreement may be reached between CEC, CEOC and the First Lien Creditors on the terms of a restructuring.

The information set forth in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any of CEC’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof and regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings, except to the extent expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. The filing of this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information herein that is required to be disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD.
