SUN INTERNATIONAL ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL
COMPLETION OF CONSENT SOLICITATION RELATING
TO 9% SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2007

PARADISE ISLAND, The Bahamas, May 21, 2002 – Sun International Hotels Limited (NYSE: SIH) (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary Sun International North America, Inc. (“SINA”) announced today that as of 5:00 p.m., New York City on May 20, 2002 (the “Consent Date”), they had received the tenders and consents required to eliminate or modify certain covenants and related provisions in the indenture governing their outstanding 9% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 (the “Notes”). As of the Consent Date, approximately 93% of the $200 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Notes were received and accepted for payment by the Company and SINA.

The Company will pay the total consideration of $1,045.00 per $1,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered on or prior to the Consent Date by delivery to the depositary today. Furthermore, the Company, SINA and the trustee have executed a supplemental indenture containing certain amendments to the indenture, as described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated May 8, 2002. The Company is using the proceeds of a new offering of senior subordinated notes that closed on Monday, May 20, 2002 to repay the tendered Notes.

Holders of Notes can still tender their Notes in the tender offer until 12:00 midnight on Wednesday, June 5, 2002 (the “Expiration Date”). Holders who validly tender their Notes after the Consent Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date are entitled to receive $1,025.00 per $1,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered, which represents the total consideration less the consent payment.

In addition, the Company and SINA have confirmed that they intend to call for redemption any Notes not tendered in the tender offer at a redemption price of $1,045 per $1,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes, which is the applicable redemption price set forth in the indenture. This press release does not constitute a call for redemption, which may be made at a later date in accordance with the indenture.
