(d)    On October 22, 2021, Caesars Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Report”) to disclose the appointment of Sandra Douglass Morgan to its Board of Directors (the “Board”), effective November 7, 2021. At the time of the Original Report, the Board had not yet made a determination regarding committee assignments for Ms. Morgan. The Company is filing this amendment to the Original Report to disclose that, on December 9, 2021, the Board appointed Ms. Morgan to serve on the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Corporate Social Responsibility Committee, in each case effective on January 1, 2022 and pending all necessary regulatory approvals. Ms. Morgan will also serve on the Company’s compliance committee, which includes independent directors of the Board and non-director members. The Board has affirmatively determined that Ms. Morgan is independent as independence is defined under the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc.

With the addition of Ms. Morgan to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Jan Jones Blackhurst will no longer be a member of the Nominating and Governance Committee.
