Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 15, 2016, Judge Benjamin Goldgar approved the request by the debtors in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings of Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. to stay the parent guarantee actions being pursued against parent Caesars Entertainment Corporation (“Caesars”) through August 29, 2016. Spokespersons for Caesars indicate that: “We are pleased that Judge Goldgar’s ruling temporarily removes the threat of pending guarantee litigation against Caesars Entertainment Corp., so that we can focus our energies on resolving this case. We are committed to working closely with the creditor groups to gain their support for a restructuring agreement that provides the greatest recoveries to creditors and positions the business to continue to operate and grow substantially.”
