Explanation of Responses:
1. On March 29, 2010, holders of a majority of the non-voting perpetual preferred stock (the "Preferred Stock") of Caesars Entertainment Corporation (the "Corporation") voted to convert all of the Preferred Stock to non-voting common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Non-Voting Common Stock") (the "Conversion") on a 1 for 1 ratio. As a result of the Conversion, the Corporation issued an amount of 15,352,275 additional shares of Non-Voting Common Stock to the Sponsors (as defined below). The Form 3 filed for Mr. Bonderman with the SEC on February 7, 2008, incorrectly reported (i) the amount of shares of Preferred Stock beneficially owned as 15,351,275, not 15,352,275 shares and (ii) the amount of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock as 31,387,726, not 31,387,725.
2. On November 22, 2010, the Corporation (a) reclassified its outstanding shares of Non-Voting Common Stock into a new class of voting common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") and (b) cancelled its existing class of non-economic voting common stock (the "Voting Common Stock") that was previously held by Hamlet Holdings LLC ("Holdings") (collectively, the "Reclassification").
3. Pursuant to an investment and exchange agreement entered into with affiliates of TPG Hamlet Holdings, LLC ("TPG Hamlet Holdings"), TPG Hamlet Holdings B, LLC ("TPG Hamlet Holdings B" and, together with TPG Hamlet Holdings, the "TPG Entities"), Co-Invest Hamlet Holdings B, LLC ("Co-Invest B"), and Co-Invest Hamlet Holdings, Series LLC ("Co-Invest Series" and, together with Co-Invest B, the "Co-Invest Entities" and, together with the TPG Entities, the "Sponsors") and certain other parties, on November 23, 2010, the Sponsors exchanged $94,481,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due 2015, $46,449,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.50% senior notes due 2016, and $74,863,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior notes due 2017, in exchange for an aggregate 2,203,964.55 shares of Common Stock (the "Exchange" and, together with the Reclassification, the "Transaction").
4. The Sponsors directly hold 48,942,560 shares of Common Stock, subject to an irrevocable proxy granted by the Sponsors to Holdings vesting sole voting and sole dispositive power with respect to such shares in Holdings. Messrs. Bonderman and Coulter are also members of Holdings.
5. Messrs. Bonderman and Coulter are officers, directors and sole shareholders of TPG Group Holdings (SBS) Advisors, Inc. ("TPG Advisors"), which is the general partner of TPG Group Holdings (SBS), L.P., which is the sole member of TPG Holdings I-A, LLC, which is the general partner of TPG Holdings I, L.P, which is the sole member of TPG GenPar V Advisors, LLC, which is the general partner of TPG GenPar V, L.P. ("TPG GenPar V"), which is the general partner of TPG V Hamlet AIV, L.P, which is the managing member of TPG Hamlet. TPG GenPar V is also the managing member of TPG Hamlet B. TPG GenPar V is also a managing member of each of Co-Invest B and Co-Invest Series.
6. Pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(2)(ii)(B) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), Messrs. Bonderman and Coulter may each be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sponsors only to the extent of the greater his direct or indirect interest in the profits or capital account of TPG Advisors.

7. Pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(2)(ii)(B) of the Exchange Act, Mr. Bonderman may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Voting Common Stock and the Non-Voting Common Stock owned by Holdings only to the extent of the greater his direct or indirect interest in the profits or capital account of Holdings.
