ITEM 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 9, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), Las Vegas Sands Corp. (the “Borrower”) entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), the issuing banks party thereto and The Bank of Nova Scotia (“Scotiabank”), as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). In connection with the entry into the Revolving Credit Agreement, the commitments under the Second Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2013, by and among Las Vegas Sands, LLC, as borrower, Scotiabank, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders and issuing banks from time to time party thereto, terminated and the outstanding amounts thereunder were repaid on the Closing Date.

Pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Lenders provided revolving credit commitments to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion, which includes a $150 million sub-facility for letters of credit. The proceeds of the loans made under the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Loans”) may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its affiliates and any other purpose not prohibited by the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on August 9, 2024

The Revolving Loans will bear interest at either, at the Borrower’s option, (x) an adjusted Eurodollar rate, plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 1.550% per annum, or (y) at an alternative base rate, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 0.550% per annum, in each case, based on the Borrower’s corporate family credit rating. Under the Revolving Credit Agreement, on the first day of each fiscal quarter, the Borrower must pay a commitment fee quarterly in arrears on the undrawn portion of the revolving commitments, which commitment fee ranges from 0.125% to 0.250% per annum, based on the Borrower’s corporate family credit rating.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for facilities of this type, subject to customary exceptions and thresholds. In the case of the negative covenants, these limit the ability of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things:
(i)     incur liens on their assets;
(ii)    enter into sale and leaseback transactions; and
(iii)     sell, lease, sub-lease or otherwise dispose of any “core facility.”

The negative covenants also restrict, subject to customary exceptions, the ability of certain restricted subsidiaries of the Borrower to incur indebtedness and the ability of the Borrower to merge, consolidate, liquidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets.

The Revolving Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant limiting the Borrower to a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including payment defaults, cross defaults to material debt, bankruptcy and insolvency, breaches of covenants and inaccuracy of representations and warranties, subject to customary grace periods. Upon an event of default, the majority of Lenders may terminate the commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement and declare any then-outstanding amounts due and payable.

The foregoing summary of the Revolving Credit Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full and complete text of the Revolving Credit Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
