EXPLANATORY NOTE

Pursuant to Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, Caesars Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Form 8-K originally filed on June 17, 2021 (the “Initial 8-K”) that reported the voting results from its Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 15, 2021 (the “Annual Meeting”) solely for the purpose of updating the disclosure under “Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders” to provide information regarding the determination of the Board of Directors of the Company as to frequency of future shareholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. Except for the foregoing, this amendment does not modify or update any other disclosure contained in the Initial 8-K.

 

Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted on, among other matters, an advisory proposal regarding the frequency of future shareholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (the “Say-on-Frequency Proposal”). As reported in the Initial 8-K, the option of “every year” received the highest number of votes cast by shareholders on the Say-on-Frequency Proposal. Based on the Company’s prior practice of annual advisory votes on compensation of its named executive officers and the results of the advisory vote on the Say-On-Frequency Proposal, the Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold a shareholder advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year until the next required shareholder vote on frequency of advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, which is required to occur no later than the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders in 2027.
