WM Cayman II Revolver

On September 16, 2021, WM Cayman Holdings Limited II, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of WML, as borrower ("WM Cayman II") and WML as guarantor, each an indirect subsidiary of Wynn Resorts, entered into a facility agreement with, among others, Bank of China Limited, Macau Branch as agent and a syndicate of lenders (the "Facility Agreement"), pursuant to which the lenders will make available in an aggregate amount of $1.50 billion equivalent revolving unsecured credit facility consisting of one tranche in an amount of $312.5 million and one tranche in an amount of HK$9.26 billion (approximately $1.19 billion) to WM Cayman II (the "WM Cayman II Revolver"). WM Cayman II has the ability to upsize the total WM Cayman II Revolver by an additional $1.00 billion equivalent under the Facility Agreement and related agreements upon the satisfaction of various conditions.

The final maturity of all outstanding loans under the WM Cayman II Revolver is September 16, 2025 (or if September 16, 2025 is not a business day, the next business day in the relevant calendar month), by which time any outstanding borrowings from the WM Cayman II Revolver must be repaid.

Borrowings of $1.09 billion under the WM Cayman II Revolver, along with $200.0 million of cash, were used to facilitate the prepayment of the outstanding $1.26 billion of borrowings under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities, and to pay related fees and expenses totaling $30.3 million, of which $29.2 million was recorded as debt issuance costs within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company recognized this transaction primarily as a modification of existing debt with the related unamortized debt issuance costs reallocated to the WM Cayman II Revolver. For those components of debt that were deemed extinguished, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.7 million.

Wynn Macau Credit Facilities

The Company's Wynn Macau credit facilities consisted of an approximately $1.27 billion equivalent senior secured term loan facility (the "Wynn Macau Term Loan") and an approximately $751 million equivalent senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Wynn Macau Revolver" and together with the Wynn Macau Term Loan, the "Wynn Macau Credit Facilities"). The borrower was Wynn Resorts (Macau) S.A. ("Wynn Macau SA"), an indirect subsidiary of WML.

During 2020, the Company prepaid $938.2 million, excluding contractual amortization payments of $100.7 million, on the Wynn Macau Term Loan using the proceeds from issuances of WML Senior Notes and operating cash. In January 2021, the Company prepaid $412.5 million of the Wynn Macau Term Loan, and accordingly, has presented that amount as a current liability on the accompany Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020.

As discussed above, in September 2021, the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities were repaid in full along with related financing costs.

WML Senior Notes

During 2020, WML issued $1.0 billion of 5 1/2% Senior Notes due 2026 and $1.35 billion of 5 5/8% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2026 and 2028 WML Senior Notes” and collectively with the WML 4 7/8% Senior Notes, due 2024, the WML 5 1/2% Senior Notes, due 2027, and the WML 5 1/8% Senior Notes, due 2029, the “WML Senior Notes”). The Company used the proceeds from the 2026 and 2028 WML Senior Notes to facilitate repayments on the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities and for general corporate purposes. The WML Senior Notes bear interest at each of their respective interest rates and interest is payable semi-annually. In connection with the issuance of the 2026 and 2028 WML Senior Notes, the Company paid fees and expenses totaling $20.7 million, which were recorded as debt issuance costs within the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The WML Senior Notes are WML's general unsecured obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment with all of WML's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, will rank senior to all of WML's future subordinated indebtedness, if any; will be effectively subordinated to all of WML's future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt; and will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future obligations of WML's subsidiaries, including the WM Cayman II Revolver. The WML Senior Notes are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the WML Notes are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale.
The WML Senior Notes were issued pursuant to indentures between WML and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “WML Senior Notes Indentures”). The WML Senior Notes Indentures contain covenants limiting WML’s (and certain of its subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: merge or consolidate with another company; transfer or sell all or substantially all of its properties or assets; and lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets. The WML Senior Notes Indentures also contain customary events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all WML Senior Notes then outstanding will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice.

Upon the occurrence of (a) any event after which none of WML or any subsidiary of WML has the applicable gaming concessions or authorizations in Macau in substantially the same manner and scope as WML and its subsidiaries are entitled to at the date on which each of the WML Senior Notes are issued, for a period of 10 consecutive days or more, and such event has a material adverse effect on WML and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; or (b) the termination or modification of any such concessions or authorizations which has a material adverse effect on WML and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, each holder of the WML Senior Notes will have the right to require WML to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s WML Senior Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. If WML undergoes a Change of Control (as defined in the WML Senior Notes Indentures), it must offer to repurchase the WML Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

On September 20, 2019, WRF and its subsidiary Wynn Resorts Capital Corp. (collectively with WRF, the "WRF Issuers"), each an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5 1/8% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 WRF Senior Notes") pursuant to an indenture (the "2029 Indenture") among the WRF Issuers, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee").

Concurrently with the issuance of the 2029 WRF Senior Notes, WRF entered into a credit agreement (the "WRF Credit Agreement") providing for a new first lien term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion (the "WRF Term Loan") and a new first lien revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $850.0 million (the "WRF Revolver" and together with the WRF Term Loan, the "WRF Credit Facilities") (the WRF Credit Facilities and 2029 WRF Notes are collectively referred to as the "Refinancing Transactions").

WRF used the net proceeds from the Refinancing Transactions to refinance the existing Wynn America credit facilities and the Wynn Resorts term loan and to pay related fees and expenses totaling $19.3 million, of which $15.1 million was recorded as debt issuance costs within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company recognized the Refinancing Transactions primarily as a modification of existing debt with the related unamortized debt issuance costs reallocated to the new debt instruments. For those components of debt that were deemed extinguished, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $12.4 million.

WRF Credit Facilities

Subject to certain exceptions, the WRF Credit Facilities bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum. The annual fee required to pay for unborrowed amounts under the WRF Revolver, if any, is 0.25% per annum. The Company is required to make quarterly repayments on the WRF Term Loan of $12.5 million beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019, with any remaining principal amount outstanding repayable in full on September 20, 2024.

WRF's and each of the guarantors' existing and future property and assets, subject to certain exceptions, including a limitation on the amount of collateral granted by Wynn Las Vegas, LLC ("WLV") and its subsidiaries so as to not violate the indenture governing WLV's outstanding senior notes.

On April 10, 2020 and November 27, 2020, the WRF Credit Agreement was collectively amended to, among other things, implement a financial covenant relief period (the "Financial Covenant Relief Period") through April 1, 2022 (unless earlier terminated by WRF), implement a financial covenant increase period (the "Financial Covenant Increase Period") commencing on the first day after the expiration of the Financial Covenant Relief Period and ending on the first day of the fourth fiscal quarter after the expiration of the Financial Covenant Relief Period (unless earlier terminated by WRF), amend the definition of "Consolidated EBITDA" in the WRF Credit Agreement during the Financial Covenant Increase Period, amend WRF's financial reporting obligations (including extensions to certain deadlines), add certain restrictions on restricted payments (including restrictions on a portion of dividends received from WRF's subsidiaries) during the Financial Covenant Relief Period and the Financial Covenant Increase Period, and amend the definition of "Material Adverse Effect" in the WRF Credit Agreement to take into consideration COVID-19.

During the Financial Covenant Relief Period, the existing consolidated first lien net leverage ratio financial covenant was replaced with a minimum liquidity financial covenant that requires WRF and its restricted subsidiaries to maintain liquidity of at least $325.0 million at all times (with liquidity being the sum of unrestricted operating cash, as defined in the WRF Credit Agreement, and the available borrowing capacity under the WRF Revolver). Following the Financial Covenant Relief Period and for as long as the Financial Covenant Increase Period is in effect, WRF may not permit the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter to exceed for the first fiscal quarter of the Financial Covenant Increase Period, 4.50 to 1.00, for the second fiscal quarter of the Financial Covenant Increase Period, 4.25 to 1.00, for the third fiscal quarter of the Financial Covenant Increase Period, 4.00 to 1.00, and for each subsequent fiscal quarter thereafter (including from and including the first fiscal quarter during which the Financial Covenant Increase Period has been terminated by WRF), 3.75 to 1.00.

Retail Term Loan

On July 25, 2018, Wynn/CA Plaza Property Owner, LLC and Wynn/CA Property Owner, LLC (collectively, the "Retail Borrowers"), subsidiaries of the Retail Joint Venture, entered into a term loan agreement (the "Retail Term Loan Agreement").

The Retail Term Loan Agreement provides for a term loan facility to the Retail Borrowers of $615.0 million (the "Retail Term Loan"). The Retail Term Loan is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Retail Borrowers. The Retail Term Loan matures on July 24, 2025 and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.70% per annum. In accordance with the Retail Term Loan Agreement, the Retail Borrowers entered into an interest rate collar agreement with a LIBOR floor of 1.00% and a ceiling of 3.75%. The Retail Borrowers distributed approximately $589 million of the net proceeds of the Retail Term Loan to their members on a proportionate basis to each member's ownership percentage. At any time subsequent to July 25, 2019, the Retail Borrowers may prepay the Retail Term Loan, in whole or in part, with no premium above the principal amount.

The Retail Term Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative and negative covenants for debt facilities of this type, including, among other things, limitations on leasing matters, incurrence of indebtedness, distributions and transactions with affiliates. The Retail Term Loan Agreement also provides for customary sweeps of the Retail Borrowers' excess cash in the event of a default or in the event the Retail Borrowers fail to maintain certain financial ratios as defined in the Retail Term Loan Agreement. In addition, the Company will indemnify the lenders under the Retail Term Loan and be liable, in each case, for certain customary environmental and non-recourse carve out matters pursuant to a hazardous materials indemnity agreement and a recourse indemnity agreement, each entered into concurrently with the execution of the Retail Term Loan Agreement.

In accordance with the terms of the Retail Term Loan Agreement, the Retail Borrowers entered into a five year interest rate collar with a notional value of $615.0 million for a cash payment of $3.9 million in July 2018. The interest rate collar establishes a range whereby the Retail Borrowers will pay the counterparty if one-month LIBOR falls below the established floor rate of 1.00%, and the counterparty will pay the Retail Borrowers if one-month LIBOR exceeds the ceiling rate of 3.75%. The interest rate collar settles monthly commencing in August 2019 through the termination date in August 2024. No payments or receipts are exchanged on interest rate collar contracts unless interest rates rise above or fall below the pre-determined ceiling or floor rate, respectively. The Company measures the fair value of the interest rate collar at each balance sheet date based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which incorporates observable market inputs such as market volatility and interest rates, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. As of December 31, 2021, the fair value of the interest rate collar was a liability of $5.5 million, of which $3.9 million was recorded in Other accrued liabilities and $1.6 million was recorded in Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On May 5, 2020, the Retail Borrowers entered into an amendment (the "Retail Term Loan Agreement Amendment") to its existing retail term loan agreement (the "Retail Term Loan Agreement"). The Retail Term Loan Agreement Amendment amended the Retail Term Loan Agreement to, among other things, temporarily suspend the requirement to maintain certain financial ratios to avoid triggering excess cash sweep provisions from the first quarter of 2020 through the fourth quarter of 2021.
